'I think if someone is saying people are talking negatively behind your back they may be trying to lower your self esteem or alienate you from the group. I think generally for me at least I give a...
When I'm interested in someone I will talk about random things about them that normal people just wouldn't remember or pick up on to show I am paying special attention to them. Like their stuff on...
Don't retaliate, he wants to make you look like the bad guy. Ignore him and focus on the people that make you happy, cut him out of your life if you can.
No I wouldn't say INTJ's are hard-asses in general, I think we're more the type to rage inside while being rational and patient externally with others, but once that patience runs out we can be...
Ludovico Einaudi - Nuvole Bianche
Yeah I think I've gone off point from the title a bit, I meant it to be a thread about perspectives and it became more focussed on depression. Though I've known people say when they're depressed that...
I think when dealing with others it all comes down to respect and appreciation.
I believe it's not about surviving but thriving and the art of fulfilment comes from growth and contribution beyond yourself, however I also find it ridiculously easy to detach from everything and...
I think about the message Fight Club sends a lot actually, how other people are trapped by money and possessions and are so busy playing in the system they don't actually realise/appreciate that...
I'm the same way in that I don't like being stuck in a system, I prefer to think about the result I want then take the necessary action to get there, having a more fluid system for efficiency. I'm...
It's probably more common in INTJ types to over analyse a conversation to reinforce a belief, especially when emotionally attached. I think if I cared about someone a lot I'd be running conversations...
There are videos on YouTube that compare the two types in terms of observable behaviour, search intj v intp. I'd say the two main differences I've spotted is that an INTP researches a topic...
I usually write myself a tasklist the night before that relate to a long range goal I have, other stuff like eating and cleaning I do when needed and when I have spare time around my tasks then I...
Bit of a depressing thread but does anyone else not know what they want out of life? Like it's a game that can't really be won. I usually fixate on a particular problem and work at solving it while...
I have a similar problem with committing to relationships, when I become overwhelmed and stressed I can cut myself off and not think/care how this effects the other person, plus I'm paranoid as hell...
I tend to drift in and out, thinking about what's been said and then occasionally wandering off into tangents in my mind. If I'm not interested though and someone's talking at me I hate that...
Go out to be a friend rather than to make friends, help people and listen to what they've got to say without judgement.

I hated school because it made me get out of bed and back then I didn't appreciate knowledge for it's own sake which made it seem tedious.
They do if they become isolationists as they know it repels people who don't take too kindly to manipulative people.
I think I've filled my head with a lot of rubbish in my life that will probably serve no purpose but doing so has made me hungry for the more deep intellectual stuff out there, I'm bored of...
Fear it may escalate and a negative and irrational decision will result then I remember I'm a mastermind and play them so they feel guilty and I get what I want.
I sometimes pace around the room whispering my thoughts out loud, repeating past dialogues and running through conversations how I'd like to see them going in the future. I don't do this around...
I'm 27, I think intelligence is something that can be cultivated or left to deteriorate over time. I'd rather be intelligent and have no money or friends than stupid to the point of constant boredom...
Get him to take the MBTI test.
Typology exists it's just how much scientific basis it has that's in doubt, I think there's something in it but I agree it's a flawed system and needs refining which is pretty much my view on every...
I often feel like I'm viewing myself from others perspectives, not sure if that counts but yes if I could step inside someone's mind and experience and learn who they really are inside my curiosity...
I don't think the MBTI is about compartmentalizing, I think it's intended to help people achieve their potential by playing to their strengths and preferences while also developing their weaknesses,...
If it's just making stuff up I'll give people the benefit of the doubt then Google it when I get home and if I find out they were fooling me I'd hold a grudge against them forever. In terms of...
I think some types are possibly more prone to certain mental disorders, or the behaviour traits of a type could be the same behavioural symptoms of a personality disorder. If you're a rarer type I...
I'm the same way when under stress or frustrated I can let my emotions influence my thinking and it can be hard to shake off, for example quitting my job because I was angry with the...

I want to answer your question but after scrolling down I forgot what it was.
I think it's definitely possible to survive with no personal connections, keeping a journal would probably help but in terms of happiness, fulfilment and success I think you need others. I think...
Focus on getting better yourself and let her go, leave the door open in case she ever wants to reconnect is my advice. It sounds like she may have lost all respect for you, overcoming your issues and...
I think it's because NTJ's can have a more moral standpoint as well, decisions have to be efficient and also the 'right' ones I could be wrong but I think an NTJ's moral framework can put limits on...
I think I over analyse behaviour a lot which leads to making connections between statements and actions that others probably don't make or if they do they might overlook them. Like what might be...

I know using the MBTI doesn't diagnose a personality disorder but do many of you who have tested INTJ also relate considerably to Cluster A personality disorders: Paranoid, Schizoid or Schizotypal?

People used to say that to me, now I smile too much it just creeps them out.
This is a question I often struggle with because sometimes I care a great deal it hurts and I don't want to, other times I wouldn't be phased if every person on the planet died today as they're going...
I was raised to celebrate traditions such as Easter and Christmas and still look forward to those occasions, I don't like to make too much of a fuss though but it's nice to have a change from the...
Someone came up to me once and harshly said, I don't like you. it seemed pretty random but I just said back I like me. Then carried about my work. That's how much I care.
I have a hard time taking things on face value, I always look for something deeper, the truth, how and why things work and what's going to happen next. I think the most mysterious thing I've tried to...
At work I used to get moaned at a lot to talk more and smile genuinely. Saying hi and bye to a group is really difficult for me as well, I just don't see the point. If people talk to me I respond...
My friend who suggested I take the MBTI test told me he thought I was an INTP then I got INTJ as my result. There are videos on YouTube that explain the differences between types that might help you....
I think people mock to make their friends laugh most of the time there's really not much more thought goes into it than that I wouldn't say. Also I completely relate to your attitude towards...
Hey all, I'm a male INTJ and looking to make some new friends.
I'll be honest before I understood what type of person I was I saw it as a curse, never wanted my own children in case they were like me, so yeah I saw it as an extremely bad thing to be and didn't...'
