'That's been my experiences with ISTPs! The ones I know have a very very high threshold, but when it's passed - they can't hold back the anger.
I can relate to nearly all of this, except I just got out of a LTR with an ISTP and we dated in our mid to late twenties. The boldest bits especially resonated with me! I love the guy to bits....
A photo with a smile! I like guys who look fun!
ISTPs, man. Pretty sexy! INTJs are pretty great too though!
I think maybe this was what I was trying to get at! Ignoring feelings maybe wasn't the right word - would it be more fair to say sometimes ISTPs don't realize their feelings are effecting them, at...
- Someone who leans toward being rational / a thinker but still has the capacity to openly discuss feelings. - Someone who likes to experience new things and has ambition - a do-er. - Someone who...
I'm working with a therapist right now in dealing with failure. I really struggle with letting go of mistakes I've made, particularly ones that may have hurt other people or let others down. The...
Totally! We're opposites, but we learn so much from one another.
I think ISTJs are pretty awesome! They and ISTPs are probably my two favourite types, though its so hard to say! I've never dated an ISTJ, but my very best friend is one, so I think I can speak a bit...
Changed in to a message on OP's wall! Don't want to go off-topic with this thread. Sorry ISTPs for the interruption!
I think ISTPs have some pretty deep feels at times - if they've been given a chance to explore them over time. In my experience, and ISTP may have super deep feelings but these things happen a) they...
Ahh yes, I was one of those girlfriends. As an ENFP that really needs verbal expressions of love on a regular (continual) basis, I had the hardest time figuring out my ex ISTP just because we were so...
I used to worry a lot when I was dating my exISTP that something was wrong - when I'd check in he'd just say I'm fine. I eventually learned that ISTPs (or at least he) are pretty direct and to the...
I dated an ISTP for many years, and I think that she sort of sounds like an ISTP too! I'm no pro at typing people, however.
Oh man! My friends have consistently commented on how eclectic my wardrobe is. I love wearing really ... outgoing? pieces.
Hi Recon! I'm an INTJ fan. I love deep thinkers, and the INTJ that I'm dating is one of them. He's very analytical, which is pretty attractive to me. He's also always working to improve himself -...
Hi ENFPs! Do you struggle with leaving relationships? When you've been the dumper, how have you coped? How long did it take you to be alright with your decision? For my part, I left a 3.5yr...
Hmm! Maybe I just don't understand Fi very well (I'm pretty new to this)! Could you explain how Fi relates to what I've said? Thanks for your help!
Hello there! I've always typed as a ENFP, and I'd say that overall I think the descriptions of ENFPs suit me well. I participate on the ENFP forum here, and I by and large I relate to a lot of the...
I cried about a week ago. I broke up with a boyfriend (now ex) of 3.5 years last July. I left because I convinced myself our relationship problems weren't possible to fix - they were a result of...

I think I often come off as an ENFJ at times, maybe in part because my mom is one too. I also think that in the work place, my behave more like a J just because I need to get things done (and I need...
I'm not an ISTP, but I dated and ISTP for 3.5 years, and that sounds about right! Any time I would make a critical remark about someone (let's say someone was being really rude at a party and we were...
I feel like I click with many people! That being said, the very best of connections that I've had tend to happy with other iNtuitive types, and quite possibly ENFPs!
Not one bit!
This exactly! I do enjoy being dominant in bed sometimes, just to change things up (I need variety more than anything), but overall, this ^.
I find ISTJs HILARIOUS! They make the very best funny observations. They're excellent at pointing out the glaringly obvious in a way that cracks me up. So much love for this type!
Oh! One more STJ thing that I love! They're super funny! Has anyone else had an ISTJ friend who makes the best hilarious observations? I feel like this is a definite thing.
Absolutely! This seems to be especially the case with people that are very logic-bound.
This may have been asked before - if so, my apologies! There's a lot of pages to this thread. :P INTJs! When you fall in love, do you tend to open up emotionally quite a bit? I'm dating an INTJ,...
Here's a question for you: are you sure they hate you? Or do you just think they do? I've struggled with social anxiety too, but something I've learned over the years is that more often than not,...
I untangled an ISTPs web and then abruptly left him - I went away for a summer internship and realized I was really lonely in our relationship because I'm so emotional and he was only just starting...
I dated an ISTP for 3.5 years, and we got back together twice (he ended things, I begged for him back). When I broke up with him this last time, he wanted to get back together too, but it didn't work...
Definitely. When I was little my mom would make me sit on my hands at restaurants... lol!
Hi everyone! I've seen a few threads that have mentioned the maturity of ENFPs in passing, and how maturity / age makes such a difference in how ENFP posters communicate on these forums. I'm...
Totally! Its satisfying figuring out what the problem was! I get super interested in all sorts of things, and learning about why my baking failed interests me to be sure. I also hate failing at...
I could be an oddball here, but most of my closest friends are STJs!! Dating an STJ would probably be terrible and would end up making me feel really misunderstood and them really ... annoyed and...
It's so interesting! When you mention that you get hyper-focused, do you find that's coming from your medication? When I worked with my therapist, we worked on how people with ADHD often get...
I've tried out a few medications over the years - mostly antidepressants, but ADHD related stuff was in the mix too. I personally decided medications we're for me. Although my ADHD presents some...
Hahahaha If by love life you mean when did I peak at hookups, then the answer is never (although I'm only 24, so who knows). I tend to get into longterm relationships over hookup scenarios. I've...
Hahahahahaha! Both are exactly examples of what I'd do! Overall it sounds like some ENFPs have got it when it comes to baking, other's don't. For those of us that struggle - we're too darn...
I hardly watch television! Every now and then though I'll come across a series that I really enjoy, although I find that in those scenarios I watch all the series online one episode after another...
I'm very socialable, although as others have mentioned when speaking from their experiences, I'm less interested in talking about myself when socializing, and I'm more interested in finding out about...
I had meltdowns too - and you know what the worst part was? The fact that they're called meltdowns. I'm an emotional person to be sure, but I'm not an over the top and out of control emotional or...
My dreams can be really surreal, or very realistic. The only common trait seems to be that if something isn't going my way in a dream, I'm usually aware that I'm dreaming just enough to change my...
I'm a terrible baker! I can cook just fine, but baking... that's a whole other story. Any other ENFPs out there like this? I think I sometimes lack attention to detail when it comes to...
I definitely connect with NFs best, no doubt. We always feel like we just get one another, and we can open our hearts to one another pretty easily. That being said, many of my best friends are...
Just had to jump in on this discussion as I just broke up with an ISTP after 3.5 years! I ended things somewhat abruptly back in July. I don't really know if my love for my ex ISTP will ever...
I've been there! I dated an ISTP for 3.5 years. He was extremely logical and I'm quite the opposite. It lead to a lot of hurt on both ends (but mostly mine, I think). I left the relationship...'
