Analysts ENTP

Smart and curious thinkers who cannot resist an intellectual challenge.

'1. How important is it that your partner be able to match you (or keep you otherwise stimulated) on an intellectual level? I would prefer that they are close. I've settled before, and I realize not...

I think it may just be a matter of finding people who you enjoy and that enjoy your company. Personally, I'm a little intrigued when someone tells me something rather unconventional about...

Hmmm... it sounds like you have a lot of self-esteem issues. Don't we all? What I would recommend is for you to stop putting your friend on a pedestal. I'm sure if you looked through a more...

You're different. It's not a bad thing, if anything it makes you more interesting.

Could you be a little more specific? Supposedly your personality type stays the same as you age, although some disagree. But the way you act and feel about some things changes as a result of age...

Yeah, it's almost like a habit for her, it seems. Like she just says it sort of compulsively a lot. I always just sort of thought that was just a quirk of hers, but that's interesting that other...

I think that is why he does it. It's kind of funny because I make jokes at my own expense a lot, so it's almost like we are one-upping each other in negative ways about ourselves. I'm not 100% sure...

Hey! I'm also kind of on the border between ENFP and ENTP. I'd say you sound more like an ENFP judging by the way that you talk (or should I say type). It's a bit more free-flowing than I am. ...

I see what you mean. My INFJ friend does that kind of thing a lot. She also apologizes for things she doesn't need to all the time.

If you have a really good stylist, go for it! It grows back. Keep in mind, I'm always doing something crazy with my hair. It keeps things interesting!

I'm not sure if it qualifies as abuse, but like some of the others have said, she is being hurtful. Would writing her a letter be an easier way of expressing this to her? I have a feeling she...

Yep, I felt like that my 1st year of college a lot. I know it might sound cliche, but try joining a group where you will spend a lot of time with other members. Some clubs are really good for this,...

Well, I am definitely an extrovert. But some people don't know the real meaning and it's not always obvious. Also I was super shy in middle school and into high school, so I never thought of myself...

Yes, thank you! I personally have never had a guy try to fake friend me to try to get a relationship, but it did happen to a friend of mine. All that I can say is that I'd feel kind of... used if...

Do ENFJs tend to be kind of self-deprecating? A guy I know that I think is ENFJ does this all the time. Even if I say something about myself, he says that's okay, I [whatever suits the...

Thanks! This was really helpful. I'm sort of newish to analyzing other people so the only person I know for sure that is ENFP is one of my teachers, and I can kind of see a difference. I was kind...

I decided to add this if it helps. 0. Is there anything that may affect the way you answer the questions? For example, a stressful time,mental illness, medications, special life circumstances?...

Well I think it really depends on the situation. I'm really on the fence. I guess I'd go with mostly analytical, but I still would have a hard time describing myself as cold. I do like to argue...

So when I was younger (high school) I would always get ENFP results. In college I would get ENTP, recently (I'm in grad school) and I have been getting ENFP again. I've read about the differences...

Does anyone else ever feel like you have a hard time connecting to other people? Sometimes I just feel like I have difficulties other people don't with starting relationships/friendships. I don't...

You're a music depressive. It's a rare disorder.

I've really had to learn how to bite my tongue. I mean REALLY. I've pissed people off in the past by pointing out to them the stupid thing that they admitted is stupid, is in fact, stupid, and they...

So at my orientation Friday, they made us take this word association test to see what types were enrolled in my program. You had to look at this group of words and rate which one was most like you...

My home town had billboards like that. I always wondered why anyone would bother to pay for something like that, but I guess the priming thing makes sense.

I want a corgi! I just don't have time to take care of one now. :( This particular guy had a tendency to lecture people about small things he would read that would usually be incorrect or unproven....

Some of those mini bottles of alcohol. Because if I'm in a disaster with no air conditioning and no internet, I'm sure as shit gonna need it.

My mom is an INTJ, and she is a little religious. She was raised in a strict Catholic household, so she does have some issues with Catholicism though.

That reminds me of this guy I used to always argue with. I only really saw him in a group of mutual friends, and he'd say something I thought was dumb. Then one day I sort of led him into this...

Well go for it! If it starts cutting into your college schedule, don't be afraid to quit.

I think anything customer service-oriented would help you, including sales, waiting tables, etc. Personally, I couldn't deal with selling cars, more power to you if that's what you do!

I'm the same way. I might get one or two people and say let's grab dinner or let's go see this movie. But organizing larger groups and parties is annoying to me.

My simplified interpretation of it is: concrete = tends to see things more in black and white abstract thinkers = tend to see shades of grey, maybes and what ifs I have a lot of...

I have the stereotypical Irish temper. When something pisses me off, I rave, yell, cuss, tell people to fuck themselves, and then cool off pretty quickly. In past relationships, some people have...

I'm pretty good at it. I've done a few skits for a club I was in during college, and I was told a few times You are exactly like [character I was portraying that I'm nothing like IRL]. Even if...

Looks like he got back from a colonoscopy. It's ok, Woody. Riding horses will do that to you. We've all been there.

Sometimes that's the best you can do temporarily. I think they can help you achieve a more long term solution. In my case, I needed a lifestyle change, and what I wanted to do required a lot of...

Drugs. Sometimes they are the answer. I had a really bad few year, people in it dropping like flies, so I tried antidepressants. They helped defeat the cycle of negativity I was going through at...

Mom: IxTJ (she tested INTJ but it's debateable) Dad: ISTP Brother: ISFP I'm the social one in the family. They say I was switched at birth.

This might be qualified as a pet peeve, but it will make me see red. If I politely ask you to stop doing something multiple times, and you continue to do so, it really pisses me off. Really pisses...

I listen to a lot of different stuff, and it changes frequently. Usually when someone asks me what type of music I like, I stare at them blankly for a minute and then ramble off some things on my...

High school sucks for pretty much everyone! Isn't 2400 a perfect score? I'm sure you'll get in somewhere. Hell, even if you don't go to college you can still have a great life! Take some time to...

I guess in a way I'm kind of both. I usually initiate sex in all of the relationships I've had. But I do like being dominated sometimes. To everyone saying they like being submissive in bed...

Once I realized I was going to fail an exam, and if I could just get a few extra days to study, I'd be set. This was one of the last classes I took, so it was very important I did well on the test. ...

Some girls are just really flirty. I have some friends like that. Is it possible that you might be misreading the signs? A lot of guys I know are notorious for that. I get over someone by...

It gets better if you say it multiple times in a row. Just me? Meh.

I'd rather study Phrenology.

My extroversion is really weird. While I'm not strongly extroverted, I often go through times where I want to be alone. If I'm feeling social, I can often be the life of the party though. Someone...

Haha! I can't smoke weed. First of all, I start yelling at people to drive me to Whataburger, AND I am starting grad school in a few weeks where I'll probably be tested. Weed and I aren't a good...

At first, I thought the first video was dumb, but after a while, I started giggling uncontrollably...

Me too!!! I do it way more than I'm comfortable with, and then I have to circulate the drugs (nothing illegal) so I don't start getting dependent and I don't start getting headaches. It sucks. ...'
