Analysts ENTP

Smart and curious thinkers who cannot resist an intellectual challenge.

'So here's a short background: I'm 28 years old. I come from a big, overachieving family where majority are successful doctors. I became a lawyer because I thought I'd be good at it and I've been ...

Don't mind if I do. I'm not married, I have no children. But I'm engaged to the first and only man I can see myself with decades from now, and everyday, I thank my lucky stars I didn't settle for...

Ahhh. The notorious ENTP extra-high standards. I'll keep it short since everyone pretty much gave you good advice. You just have to meet the right girl. I'm a late bloomer myself. I didn't get...

So true! When I got into law school, I found it strange that most of the girls in my class were SF types. Law school being a survival of the fittest type of arena, I had no choice but to make...

It's unfair to say two Ne-dominants is dangerous based on theory alone. I'm not an expert on cognitive functions (so please pardon my lack of technical terms), but what I have is a truckload of...

In general, it sucks when people don't get your Ne thinking and humor. It especially sucks being a female ENTP, where your every move is criticized by more feminine girls and they hate you for it...

Thank you for your insight! I'm glad to hear from someone with personal experience. I guess that's inevitable; I hear more mature people say things like that too every now and then. I just have to...

My toy poodle, Redford, is a trophy dog. Don't get me wrong, I love that furball to bits. But when I found out that my brother was giving me a dog, the first thought in my mind was, YESSSS! I'll...

I understand how you would think that way. My INTJ friend initially thought it was an act of vengeance on my part. But I've thought about it long and hard, especially since I have the most to lose,...

Thanks for your input. My friend and I still share a few laughs every once in a while, and I always thought that was enough, but I guess we just need to have some sort of closure to this. I've never...

This will be a little, complicated story about a part of my past. It might be a little too detailed, but please bear with me! :happy: So a few years ago, I met this ENFJ guy in law school. To make...

I get absolutely bored when my friends start talking about celebrities. Or other people, for that matter. I guess that's the downside to being a girl with non-NT girlfriends. Why can't we talk about...

When someone totally misses the point when I make an argument. And worse, when that someone actually answers my rhetorical questions. I mean, c'mon.

I do that too when I meet new girls. Then once we become closer, I tend to go crazy too. Unfortunately, my longtime friends are all sensing types and most of them are feelers too, so you can imagine...

I don't have ADD but I tend to display ADD characteristics. I think it's part of being an ENTP. I tend to do the whole Oh look, a squirrel! thing in the middle of a conversation, but I have no...

Lawyer! At some point, I genuinely wanted to be a popstar. Then I grew up and decided to become a lawyer. It's perfect. You get to perform on the job, it's more stable than being a performer,...

I can relate to that as well. I realized that hanging out my old group really drained me because most of the time, they'd talk about celebrities or some new girl they hate, and I'd be all, Hey Mark!...

That's so true. I've always wondered why I didn't have many close female friends and can't--for the life of me--think of anyone who can qualify as my best friend. I also tend to get along with most...

Thanks for that! Yep, I've been consciously trying to tone down my awesomeness when I'm around new people--female AND male, but it can get very exhausting. It's especially true here in the...

Wow, good for you! Actually, I'm looking forward to becoming a lawyer already because I think I'm going to meet a few women who might actually think like me, or at least get me. What's it like having...

You're right. It's really hard to find NT women. But it's been the opposite with me. Women generally like me when it comes to first impressions (except the really conservative, sensitive ones who...

I can totally relate about the mother thing. My mom and I had countless clashes back when I was a teenager because she felt I was a little too abrasive. She recently told me how proud she was of how...

I'm an ENTP woman and sometimes, it can be a little frustrating when women end up disliking me because of my personality. My male friends have told me that they find me intimidating, but it has never...

I went to an all-girls high school and, needless to say, the popular girls didn't like me very much for some strange reason. I was neither super popular nor unpopular although I had my own group of...

My boyfriend and I are doing great and going at 8 months this month. The priority thing hasn't come up in several months. In the first few months, there are times he wouldn't see me because he's...

I do that to my friends too, especially since we're all sitting so close together in class. If I have a trustworthy friend, I'll pass the stolen object on to him or her and embark on this elaborate...

Yes, I understand your scenario. I don't like pulling him out of whatever outing he's in just because I want something at that moment. I understand that it's going to be inconvenient for him if I do...

We usually debate only shallow stuff for the sake of having fun and lively conversations. I've noticed that the more I like the person, the more I'll debate with him/her because it's how I connect....

I have an ENTP friend who's dating this ultra-rich (think hotel-chain heir) but super-nice guy. She told me that knowing how filthy rich the guy is, is like knowing that he has brown hair. It's...

Loved messing with my classmates' minds since grade school: I'm pure Filipina with dark skin and dark eyes, but somehow, I was able to convince the class valedictorian that I had blue eyes. Me:...

A lot of guys have told me that I intimidate them and/or assume that I'm already taken. That resulted to my having my first boyfriend at the ripe old age of 22! Although I intimidate guys, I...

Alright, I will. I just don't want to react so quickly without having evidence, you know? I want to make sure that the behavior that bothers me is actually there before I tell him about it. I don't...

That's the way it was with my ENFP boyfriend. We went out everyday for the first week and by the third day he was professing how much he really liked me. For the entire second week he had to travel...

I used to need to get the last word in, but ever since I got into law school, I've learned to tame that side of me. Law school is full of people like that and I didn't want to clash with any (at...

One of my 'favorite friends' is an INTJ. He's one of the few people that I actually look forward to having a conversation with, although he's also one of the few that can beat me at the whole mind...

Personally, i can be romantic and gentle but not all the time. I guess it helps that my boyfriend is an F so it's usually up to him to initiate the lovey-dovey stuff. That's when I respond in kind....

I'm an ENTP and my ENFP boyfriend and I have been together for 3 months now. We're both in our early 20's and in our first serious relationship. Before we became steady, I scoured the net looking at...

OH WOW. Now I get my boyfriend. He's an ENFP and we have this joke that I'm actually the guy in the relationship while he's the girl. He's all sweet and mushy which I'm not used to but I surprisingly...

As ENTP's, we're not really known for being touchy-feely and all. We think, after all, not feel. I noticed that the more I like someone (as friends), the more I'll make fun of him/her, but not to...

I love my personality type although I can't say I've met any other ENTP's aside from myself. Judging from experience, the people who don't really know me and who have a surplusage in sensitivity...

I'd buy all the yummy gadgets I've always wanted and wipe out the entire ThinkGeek inventory.

1.) Unethical - Hmm... Not really. I think I'm highly ethical in that I have my own set of principles that I strictly follow (I don't cheat in exams, don't say bad words, etc.) 2.) Joker - OH YEAH....

Hahaha. When I first tested as an ENTP, I was so skeptical I retook different kinds of tests over and over again, and read up on ENTP descriptions everyday for the next two weeks. That alone was a...

Thanks. I've never been in a relationship before so I really have no idea what to expect or how things actually work in one. Alright, I'll keep that in mind. I've been known to be a little...

Thanks for the replies guys! :laughing: Assuming that my friend is an ENFP, do you have any advice for me (an ENTP) on how to interact with him? I read that they can get bored really fast or...

I'm 22 and I've been dating this guy (he's 21) for over a week now. We both have never been in a relationship before. Can anyone please confirm what personality type he is? - Before we started...

I guess that's also one of my fears, that I care about people too much that I lose my individuality. (It sounds like a stupid thing to say, but I can't help it...:unsure:) So far, ever since I...

I tried PM-ing but found that I couldn't (I need to have 15 posts or more.) I don't wanna post on the forums for the sake of reaching my quota, hehe.

Thanks. I've read about the 5 love languages before and told my mom about that but she ... didn't think much about it. (Mine is giving/receiving gifts, btw. I think only my sister gets me in that...

It's semestral break for us and I'm bored to death and been looking for something new to learn/kill time on. I'm going through that hole you guys keep talking about. Man, I'm hating every second of...'
