'Possibly the most ENTJ thing to ever happen to me happened last Friday. In a national listserv of others in my profession I spouted off some opinion telling someone why believed their opinion was...
Not something I said - so much as a feeling.... went to the continuation ceremony for the 8th graders from the youth group I volunteer with and got soooo annoyed that the ceremony took a good 5-10...
Ha! I got typed as an INTP recently too - I mean, maybe a P, just because of my ADHD and the questions asked on the particular survey .... but me as an I anything is laughable!
Exactly! And this is what I was guilty of before. I changed from my biochem/med school path in high school largely because of these concerns only to end up at 31 single and childless as ever. Had I...
I think, true to my ENTJ nature, I feel like I've done about as much as I can in my current position. I am limited by space - which is controlled at the board level - so I have no control and...
1) I think I've definitely encouraged some kids to love reading - but mostly I'm preaching to the converted - people who already read to their kids, who value education, that's why they come to the...
Apart from semis on the highway and getting meningitis, an aneurysm or an inoperable brain tumor - I used to most fear becoming a spinster... but now that I feel like I already am a spinster I fear...
Yeah, the other one was an INFP... So I'm trying to avoid investing to much in INFxs at the moment Jonathan would be a weird name for a girl.... but I'm glad things are going well with your...
LOL. The weirdest mistype I ever got was INTP. Me being an I anything is just too hilarious to even consider! But I was somewhat pleased that despite the mis-type I retained my NT status... even...
Be Prepared I hope for the best and prepare for the worst, but I don't let all the possible hazards bother me. I consider the possibility of the most likely hinderances and have plans A, B and C...
This! Especially the male ones. If an ENTJ really likes you - you will KNOW because he will TELL you or otherwise do something about it. We don't just sit around and not do things - getting s**t...
Not a relationship question so much a relationship observation. I saw this on Thought Catalog today - it is so much yes. Even though the title is the broader ambitious girls - I can't think of many...
THIS. THIS. All of this! (And this is probably why the friend that has been most supportive and there for me in the ways I've needed has not been the INFJ, INFP or ENFP I would have expected - but my...
I suspect a little of both....
Yes! I love travel! I HATE the hurry up and wait of air travel, but I will tolerate it if it gets me to where I'm going fastest. I am currently working towards setting foot on all 7 continents...
7-8 hours consistently. I usually try to be in bed by 10 and asleep by 11, wake up at 7 every day. Sometimes, if I'm out with friends, I'll go to bed later and sleep in a bit the next day - but I try...
Honestly, no, thank heavens. The one job I was ever released from was on specious terms to say the least, and it was an entry level position. Since finding a career I genuinely enjoy I have not had...
This January I lost my (INTJ) father to cancer. Because I was so like him in many external and internal ways, and had been closer to him than my mom for most of my life because of that, it's been a...
I'd say that is definitely accurate of me... though, again, I have gotten more in touch with my feelings over the years (and that is healthy development for an ENTJ -...
I think the biggest thing that tells me I am actually and ENTJ and not an ENFJ despite sharing some similar strengths is the whole Extraverted Feeling function. For instance: The ENFJ may feel...
Yeah. I find that almost no one really understands me... at least a few people try. Well, it depends on which version of the test. I get 8w1 as a top 3 result regardless, but one version said 2w3...
Um, thanks. I mean, I can only take credit for the name. But I like Colorado too. It's why I, you know, live here and all. :) Bwa ha ha ha .... yeah ISTJs would be too busy judging you for...
My dad died. He noticed I was sad and offered to make time to talk. I told him I wasn't sure if his offer was one I could take because for me I only felt safe to open up with that stuff with friends...
Yes to all of this.... And I think it can give people the impression that I am this incredibly open person... maybe even too open... I have no sense of mystery... but in point of fact the circle...
Had a dream about my INFJ last night.... We were hanging out in some hotel or something it seemed like (maybe a hostel common room?).... in any case it was a living space that was not in either of...
I pulled quotes from a longer email - the full email included that I would like to be friends with him in the way that I am friends with his (INTJ) roommate - with whom I am very close. He is...
Thanks for this! One of the people who burned me is an INFJ... when he opens up I take that very much as an intimacy thing, but it was a level of intimacy in our friendship that was not in fact...
Dear INFJ, Your pride is leaving a bone yard in your wake. Dear ESFJ, I love spending time with you, but I'm still not sure you can handle being one of my most intimate friends. Despite...
Dear Feeling Types, Tread lightly my feeling-type friends when you emote with your thinking-type friends... to us that is a sign of intimacy, because for us feelings are shared with VERY few...
I feel that you are asking for more of me than I am willing to give. While I will continue to pray and do my best to encourage you through the many ways we serve together, I don’t believe I am the...
He texted that he appreciated the email but hasn't had time to fully read it yet, will try to respond by tomorrow afternoon.... At least I've already resigned myself to the idea that he doesn't...
So I went by his place to drop off the study guide for the bible study we co-lead this evening. I almost wanted to just knock, open the door and leave the book on the floor, but then decided that...
LOL. You're totally right in my playing a part, which I totally cop to - for sure. I'd actually been talking to his roommate about that a couple weeks ago in the aftermath of an earlier run away...
It's not so much that I want more... I'd love more... but over the last few weeks I've really been content to just be friends.... but I want to be good close friends. I'd like to have the kind of...
Yeah, part of me wants to just strike a match and watch the bridge burn. If he is so prideful and shallow that he can't see what amazing person he has right in front of him, then maybe he doesn't...
True. I had thought about clarifying that in the original, but being all ENTJ I went for brevity. ;) But yes, I intended the fullest meaning of listening - as in full attentiveness and appreciation...
Ack!! He is doing the run away thing - again. At first I thought it was me. But we've had this conversation twice and I've made it abundantly clear that I am not trying to pursue a relationship with...
Dear INTJ, Thank you for being such a fabulous friend. Thank you for thinking like me. Thank you for understanding. Thank you for listening. Thank you for knowing exactly how to make me laugh....
Not an INTJ, but knowing my dad and best guy friend who are, among the most offensive things to them is feeling like they are not being listened to when they speak.
You've resigned yourself to probably being single for the rest of your life because you realize that no mere man can break and bridle a unicorn.

Honestly, probably mostly flattered, and just a little annoyed.... depending on how they went about it. If they really want my attention they should just ask me out - I would appreciate their...
Only English fluently, but working towards Spanish fluency.
Just fine. I think. One of my good female friends is an ESFJ. But my mom is an ISFJ, so maybe I've got a leg up from having grown up with that... I probably wouldn't seek out SF friends, but I like...
One of the most annoying things at your work is the inefficiency of the other staff in morning/opening duties - even when you have told them, more than once, how to make it better.
It does for me. I'm a 2w3 or 3w2 (depends on which version of the test), 8w1.... so I don't think it's just a 1 thing - I think it's an Fi thing... And sentimentality in ENTJs has been well noted,...
1) Thanks to these boards and my one NT friend, I can feel myself coming out of this rut I feel I've been in since August... suddenly I am liking myself and liking being an ENTJ again - even if it...
Dupe, removed.
The Thats Illogical Variant -continuous questioning of the other person to gather info -then disregards the other person's feelings and morals as illogical Um, I'm with the others who say...
INTJ. For sure. But I've been good friends with a few INTPs as well.'
