'So here's the situation: me and my ESTP father - who have been on rocky terms almost my entire life - have started trying to get along as of late. I know he's very eager to get on my good side after...

Dear ESFP, ISFP and INFP childhood friends, I just wrote an insanely long thank-you letter depicting our entire friendship since age twelve and my views on it - how we've grown apart and together...

¨ Hmm. Interesting post, which helped induce a pivotal moment for me concerning my first heartbreak (INTJ guy, of course). (Warning: Storytelling time ahead regarding first love experience with...

^This. Extremely Ne/Si. It's obvious you have Ti/Fe, but I agree that you don't seem like an ESTP. I think there's a bigger chance you might be an ENTP with developed Fe or something of the sort....

It depends. 1) Are the things you say relevant to me? 2) Are the things you say interesting to me? 3) In short, do I in any way care about you or what you're saying at all? If all of the...

...when you (or your ENFP husband) make fried rice every Thursday because your daughter once commented on a Thursday that she really liked the fried rice you make. And two months later, when she...

- Loyalty - Discipline/respect/manners - Level-headedness; does not jump into something without thinking things through first - Problem-solving attitude without failing to attend to details (hence...

...I'm guessing I'm not the only one enjoying this show, then? *stops hiding popcorn* And just out of curiosity to those of you debating over the source of the ENTJ arrogance - what does that have...

I wonder if this hasn't been written already, but I think this is the most common answer in conversation from any ENTJ I've ever come across while with another Ne user (or I'm using uncensored Ne...

Olmed3011 and ENTPreneur: An ENTP meetup does sound pretty interesting - I wonder how it'd be like, though. The idea of knowing that the other people around you reason the same way you do and in some...

Dark Opal: I think your questions are pretty difficult to answer, since ESTJs after all only share the same sets of cognitive functions for how they reason. There may be some shared traits as a...

This is pretty interesting. I used to have a theory about NTs being super-empaths as children - at least that's the case for the majority of the NTs I know IRL - and that early puberty is when our...

I'm quite exhausted so I might've misunderstood the masses of text throughout this thread, so correct me if I'm wrong: - You want to improve your relationship with ENTPs in general, especially...

I may not be particularly old, but I disagree with the idea that there is no failure. There is - and sometimes it's important to acknowledge it, because sometimes, admitting that you did wrong or...

One thing I've never understood about 3 stereotypes is how we're supposedly doing it for the sake of other people's praise and favor. Granted, when I was younger, I always thought my accomplishments...

QuietMarvel: Ooh, I'm almost jealous too. That cake looks fantastic. I wish you a happy birthday too! :) NegativeRadical: Maybe you should find yourself an SJ? My ESTJ best friend always...

Nah, I mostly don't care. Like BusinessMan said: people believe what they want to believe, unfortunately. It's pointless to waste energy getting worked up about them being wrong if they're not going...

I'm pretty renowned for making up crazy methods to make boring subjects interesting - the kind where you actually have to memorize the stuff instead of just understanding it. Some ideas: For my...

I definitely agree that the ESFJ's way of thinking seems a little off. As far as I know, Ne/Si users think the same way, only Ne users are more prone to 'skipping thoughts' with Si anchors and Si...

You know an ENTP loves you when they go through a lot of effort to give you a present, and then brush it off as if they just randomly threw something together when it's obvious they didn't. (I...

The INTJ doorslam is pretty infamous at this point... but have you ever un-doorslammed somebody? I'm just very curious. I used to be very close with an INTJ but due to lack of communication and me...

Hi! I started to write an article in the ENTP Articles forum last month, but due to my studies and RL, I didn't have time to finish my post. I saw that the Edit option was off, so I thought I'd wait...

I always made up crazy stories and games too. Up until I met an INTJ in the other class - he's still my best friend - I never met anybody with an imagination like mine. When we played together,...

My ENTP best friend's pet name was bimbo when we were in junior high. She was basically the walking, talking stereotype of the popular cheerleader you'd see in teen flicks. It was mostly just...

When healthy, INFJs are like Patronus charms straight out of the HP series; ethereal, mystical, calming. (And equipped with an x-ray vision into our deep, dark souls.) You come in all shapes and...

Dear Failure, You almost had me there. I've tried so hard. So goddamn hard. I no longer know what it's like to wake up and just take the day as it comes. My life is an endless myriad of...

Dear INTP friend, Thanks for the super-wasted text messages you sent me at 5 am last night! I find it rather funny that you have to describe your entire night, what people you met at the club, who...

As a general rule, most ESTJs I meet are probably bad-tempered if you cross them. But as I don't cross them, I find them to be very calm and easy to get along with. XD Noliah: Ever tried to look...

Hmm, interesting. I don't actually think I've encountered this dilemma... not sure if it's because I'm always so busy in my career I don't have time to meet people too frequently or if it's because I...

I'm an Asian born and raised in Sweden (lol, the best of two worlds judging from my fellow Swedes/Asians here, eh?), but I've learned to debate in another way. I still express my views - only less...

Hmm, I don't really know if dragging him out is such a good idea. When I was 12, I was really introverted myself and did the same thing. The reason was because I hated my middle school. I became...

Hmm, I agree with you to a certain extent there. Body language does say a lot about a person, especially such strong emotions such as genuine anger or happiness. However, I wouldn't necessarily say...

More than often when it comes to those situations, I ask them to show proof that I am wrong rather than asking me to show proof that I am right. If you can't prove that I'm wrong, you also can't...

Oh, I think you must have misunderstood me there. I haven't actually been diagnosed with cancer... yet, anyway. So far, I've spent the past four months seriously struggling with health issues, but...

I'm too lazy to read through this entire thread, nor the other one. But I read the first post, and I do recognize myself in that. The problem is, I think, not low self-esteem or insecurity. People...

...Always one of the most difficult questions for an N, isn't it? So here's a little game: just answer whatever jumps into your mind when you hear that question. However, you must read the post...

You. ...Is that your window over there, all open and inviting? :)

Okay, INTJs - here's a question for you about a fellow INTJ... I have an INTJ best friend whom I like very much, in a little brother kind of way. He has absolutely zero Fi, which can be a bit...

...I just love how this thread randomly derailed into a heated debate about marijuana. XD At least you guys don't need to question what MBTI type you are... lol. That aside, I think everybody is...

I definitely agree that it sounds like a S/N problem to me rather than F/T. I'm in the same boat, I've been invited to a dinner at my ISFP friend's place (with her ISFP fiancé and our ISFJ/ESFP/ISFP...

You are not alone, my friend. Let us join all forces and fight those that oppose our sexiness... with our sexiness. Just imagine the things we could accomplish. They would never be able to resist...

...You forgot sexy. Never forget the sexy part. D< Here's a post I wrote about what ESTJs like/dislike in a person for those who are interested, btw:...

Trololol, BRAINSSSSS. 8D (Such a pretty, pink thing to look at. Pink is evil. Melikes evil stuff. Mraurrr...) Nah, all jokes aside... I'm pretty much into tall guys, preferably lean to the...

I have done some Shadow exploration, actually. Except some of your discoveries don't really relate to mine (the ones at the end). Nonetheless, we do have some things in common - like the neediness,...

Oh, you ENTJs. You always make me laugh:crazy: Soured Lie: You sound exactly like my ESFP sister's (ENTJ) ex-fling. He said the same thing... I unfortunately forgot that, so when I told her about...

I've met quite a few INFJs, but they're never the same. In fact, I often refer to you as The Chameleon - the only thing you really have in common is the way you reason [Ni/Fe], but other than that,...

I find it extremely amusing that the only INFJ I've ever known to be attracted to another INFJ was completely awkward around him. Considering how both of them are brilliant both in terms of...

Dear Elitist Classmates and Former Elitist Me, Intellectuality? Power? Prestige? What's all that about, anyway? So what if we attend one of the best business schools in Europe? So what if we're...'
