'If this person is an INFJ this thread compounds my confusion over why ENTPs and INFJs are supposed to be a good match.

No I'm bad with family. I loved my maternal grandparents but one died and the other is a shell now due to dementia so may as well be gone. I love my mum and sometimes we can be best friends but we...

(I'm 30 but just wanted to answer this) Yes! I just about remember pre internet life and it was.....boring. sooooo boring. The internet is the key to my happiness, I think. Finding out...

I don't think I really do jealousy if that is defined as fear of losing someone - I figure everything happens for a reason and if the other person isn't 100% happy with me and staying with me through...

Really just two things I ask. Freedom Intimacy/Friendship Yes, I did marry my best friend...and it feels GREAT! :D

This, so much this. We're just so painfully logical. I think the 'break ups' (if you could call them that) that have wound me up have been the ones I've been unable to logically figure out - like,...

Yes to this - I find a lil competition actually gets me off my ass with things...and I am barely ever sat still just watching TV or whatever, I'm usually tinkering with another hobby whilst watching...

I live in Yorkshire, but am from Lancashire, however, as you probably know, the war wasn't yorkSHIRE vs LancaSHIRE, it was house of York vs house of Lancaster and that ecompassed folks from...

I just cannot fathom how ISFJ/ENTP works - maybe its better ISFJ female-ENTP mae because of trad. gender roles? ISFJs seem to really loathe me...we just don't understand each other and I feel like...

ermagerd, I love Sunne in Splendour too and wrote my 'Bearnshaw' series off the back of it - check it out on amazon if you like ;) The reviews might not show up in america but on the UK page its at...

same same same

When I first met my INTJ husband, I decided I was never going to speak to him again. He had to really chase me and demonstrate his resilience and intelligence. Once I decided I did like him, we...

1-Did you ever meet an INFJ man? Why our supposed perfect match are rarer than pandas in US zoos? Did you ever meet other ENTPs in real life? Did you like them? I haven't knowingly met one but...

ain't no way sophia was an ENTP.

Yeah, sometimes I think I have so many personas I dont know which the real me is...'be yourself' is impossible for me, I'm too buys reflecting what's going on around me sort of. INTJ husband...

I think we're coming at this from different angles. Being a genius doesn't mean having to get rich to show off that fact? Maybe we don't want a pristine showhome, maybe we have better things to...

Yes! Had to stop reading the thread and jump in at this point ;) Female entp here and experience most of what's been discussed by the others. -we're rare -male friends are better because we...

I really don't think INTJ, I think an INTJ would be far too preoccupied with themselves and their interests to want to control or be responsible for all those people...stupid sheeple I also think...

Seems few! Do you think gender expectations play a part? As a woman it feels like you're supposed to just be 'support crew' to a man. Quiet, supportive, consoling, needy (to make them feel...

Really interesting Icy, thanks! I think if things were to go sour between us, it'd be the same for me and my husband, we'd accept it, shake hands and no hard feelings. So, it seems like it can...

ha, amazing. especially the 'a girl cries' bit.

Agreed grrr, which is exactly why I posted. I was constantly told when younger that I was older than my years etc. and I did come across as really mature and caring to people when I needed to -...

I suppose you're getting self pity now aswell... *puppydog face*

LOL, it's really not. I don't even get where anyone can get bitterness from with that? *sigh* I should never try to help, should I?

I don't know what that means, even googled it, but nothing - care to enlighten me?

it's the randomness I love - you there, yes you, let me just plug into your brain for a while, no strings... oh the exquisite delight when you find an intelligent one! haha.

Heyyy, I thought at least here, in the ENTP corner of the net, I could enjoy discussing something without being told stuff like that? Or are we not allowed to play with non ENTPs even if they wander...

It's not horrible as such, I just know how much it hurts 'the feelers' out there (even though I can't actually *understand* that) - because I usually get *exactly* the kind of reaction I'm getting...

I bet most people being played by an ENTP would say the same, if we weren't good at it, it wouldnt be much of a game....look at the facts (if you want to ;) ): when there was no one else around (and...

This might not be what you want to hear, but ENTPs live for conversation and debate, and we're really charming and able to adapt to whoever's in front of us and push their buttons (positively or...

Similar - I view myself as a storyteller. I can write a novel or a screenplay, work in the medium of film or radio. I can also design and draw well. Guess I'm just good at getting my message...

Yes! Debates between ENTP and INTJ feel like Clash of the Titans, lol

In the past I craved another version of myself - oh what fun we'd have together, being spontaneous, so fun, so charming, and hogging the limelight. He'd be tall, handsome and quirky. We'd be an...

Me and my INTJ husband make a really good team when we're working together. It only falls down because he's happy sticking to his one long term goal but I jump about from idea to idea.

I'm a flighty, can't-stick-at-anything ENTP who never had serious relationships. Until I met my INTJ and settled down for the last 7yrs. We're perfect; just the right amount of NT similar so we...

nah, no advice. My weight and fitness fluctuate, I can't stick to anything and am prone to just enjoying myself too much #yolo. the best exercise for me is exercise that achieves something,...

As I've aged I've come to realise that I don't get emotions and now I know why and can recognise it and try to work with it, so I think I'm getting better with that. It's more her complete not...

depends on the idea I guess?

Is this an ENTP thing too do we think? I just LOVE going on chatrooms and chatting to random people. Everyone else seems to have grown out of it but sometimes I just need to connect and feed off...

*weeps with joy* I am enjoying reading all this soooo much, and identify with so much. I'm the child of an ENTP, a 'genius who couldn't make a living' as described by another poster above. He...

I dunno, I'm comfortable talking about my feelings in relation to anything, but the thing is...I don't have many and I think that upsets people. I have opinions, but 'feeeelings'? about sex? Well,...

That's it, I think I have a lot of women who I think I *would* find attractive, if only I found them attractive, lol - so we're just intense mutually admiring friends instead 8)

Yeah I'd like to think I date people not genders but have never been sexually attracted to a woman :(

*high five*

Great to be able to roll eyes at each other at any kind of kidfest!

I like what adultchild's written and a lot of it goes for my partner too. He's an alpha, but a real one, not someone who has to flex his muscles and be a macho dick all the time. He's quiet and...

female ENTP - firmly straight. Not because I have any problem with homosexual activity, in a way it appeals to me to be a lesbian because it would be 'different'...it just doesn't do it for me. I...

I'm female too and exactly the same. Attracting men is a game for me and it doesn't matter what they look like, it's all about keeping my interest and as soon as it's gone, so am I...

It entirely depends what I want them to think, and that depends on the situation. I use a different persona for each interaction. Sometimes I will dismiss people entirely if I think they are stupid...

Yup I've always done the persona thing: facebook causes me problems.'
