'I am INTP. From my observation, I think FJs and FPs (F's in general) have a desire to affect or manipulate others' feelings. I think INFPs just feel more guilty about it b/c they are HSP. ...

Hello ENTPs, I am INTP type 3w2. I am wondering about this because I've found out that ENTPs tend to have better careers than INTPs. I've known a few ENTPs in real life. They all tend to...

Kind & caring towards me Has house in order (has career, savings, knows how to get things & get things done) Very sexual but in a monogamous relationship

ESTJs They're confident and know pretty much how to do everything in life by the time they're ~ 5 years old

Congrats monemi. You're the ESTP I follow most regularly on this forum

In response to the original post, INTJs often come across as arrogant and not concerned with hurting others. INTPs to an INTJ can appear as inefficient, wasteful, lazy because of P. Having...

@NT the DC Tips I got: Use modern technology for bill management. Use modern technology to greatly simplify cooking. Cooking is done in less than 30 minutes. I assume the rice cooker...

@KindOfBlue06 I get you totally. I'm INTP type 3w2. I feel like I've learned a lot about life. I've been away from opportunity since 1 year and will have to catch up like you. Like I said I...

@Femme In my experience, this is not a good combination. I am male INTP. All my friendships with male ESFPs have ended. My father was an ESFP. He abandoned me for nearly 1 decade, stole...

I totally get you when you talked about the 'rat race' and comparison. INXPs tend to be pretty intelligent and clever people at least in some fields. When I compare myself to SJ sibling or SJ people...

Hi, I am an INTP. I am curious what INFPs have to say about this. What should you have done in your 20s? What should you have done by start of your 30s?

@Iamtp Ready to eat food for breakfast, eat cheaply and buy out for lunch, low preparation food for nights and cooking for weekends. What great ideas to keep these things easy and not overspend...

Automatic bill paying - Great idea for simplifying tasks. Thanks for your encouraging words. I know we're not great at it. Few other personality types would have such a thread. Thanks for letting...

Hi, As an INTP, I am wondering what issues you all went through when you first started living alone? Here are the main ones that I am getting prepared for: 1) time for food. buy food. cook...

I've been in a few cultures. They're all pretty much the same in terms of encouraging extroversion. In the family, they want someone who will take care of others' needs and not just one's own. In...

1) Love is a mutual cooperation between 2+ more people. It can make quality of life better (friends passing time talking, family supporting each other, etc.) or quantity of life better ($,...

I am literally continents away from where I want to be. I left my home country in Asia by force. Now I have citizenship of a small country in South America and can easily travel anywhere I want to...

monemi, Choice, Dannyell, Gables, Wh1zkey, itsme45, emmamadden, mf2014, EmilyRose, Rosette Thank you all for your responses. So much experience from you all. I knew this was the right forum to ask...

I like to create stylized art - simple technique with different goals (color, depth, emotion, etc.) that I can use over a large subject area. I prefer more to present different things and many types...

I think I am the only INTP in this country I have ever met. I think I might also be the only N in the country also

Mostly programming because that's what I do Other interests I study myself: -design of graphics (for various things - sites, games, charts, etc.) -business models/strategies -economics (like...

Typically range and magic. However I do a lot of melee in Runescape because the game is very much imbalanced towards it. In tank games, I prefer more defended to get longer time to hit.

Make an invention to make lots of money and move out.

4 pages to discuss such a question.

This is pretty much true. I want power to be independent and live how I want. I stay away from radical extremes (conservative or liberal). I just want to work and live my life. I keep expenditures...

First take this information as a suggestion and not instruction. I am INTP. However I do have information about your field and advice about your situation. There is a field called...

@-Halo- The communist was from a third world country. Maybe there are cultural differences - you don't really need to sacrifice your life in the US for politics. But I guess you find the...

I knew 2 ENTJs in my life. One was a feminist atheist environmentalist and very vocal about her views. Everyone around her knew what she did not approve of. The other was a communist and...

In a new country. Trouble trusting and reading people. Morality is not the same as in home. I've found less than 2 handfuls of people I like and trust somewhat. Most of them I don't need or have...

Very judgmental and controlling Not all. But they tend towards these characteristics

This is basically true for recording information. I make mind map type of diagrams (circles and connecting lines) to manage complex projects and tasks and to learn about things I'm not certain about....

I would be calm. Age group makes a big difference. There are a handful of people I could understand of a younger age group. I would probably like some and not so much others. I would try to have the...

Gifted program should be about 1) giving opportunities for high achieving students to learn and work in selected fields; 2) by helping such students, all of society benefits. If a gifted program...

In the form of lyrics for a song or if it's Epic ancient Greek or about the Mongols. Sometimes also if I can get new emotional understanding on some subject. Otherwise a poem compared to a...

Couldn't say it better. There's two problems. One is understanding and other is interest. For understanding, you have several options. Buy the answer book if it exists (for sociology); study...

I myself haven't heard of any such cases It is not good for political freedom to ban criticism of a politician. I don't think that any government should order a ban. I don't think that Facebook...

If you're not very social and you condemn yourself, that is bad. Stop it. Just accept yourself as you are. The pain does not stop until you stop condemning yourself. If you're not very social,...

Can you tell a definition of street smart? What does a street smart person know? What does he do often? What is more easy for him? I ask the ISTJs because they seem to pickup and understand...

@CaféZeitgeist 1. Party major - like psychology. People study it so they can study something light while partying 2. This makes sense especially 1 & 2.

I think there are a number of people who we might be really compatible with since we are born (if you assume either a natural curve or a descending curve, there have to be some who are most...

I chose to start working rather than go for master's. I would have had higher starting salary and been able to teach if I had a master's. I chose to get citizenship in a better country than to go...

Yes. Pretty much. It works like this. We all do memorising and replicating steps. We use some of that knowledge and experience at work. The rest of our success is up to (4) our management...

You come home and relax with tv/books/chat/forum or just lay down. I did not know you all were so humble.

Congratz. Well earned. Always like to read your posts for your XNFP perspective Keep posting

It's good to be social or validate other's feelings. But isn't dating someone without interest in them a bit severe?

This is an XNTP issue. I used to trust everyone and believe that since I had a good, well meaning nature, others would respond in a similar way. But about 13 years of experience undid that...

@Tea Path That was not the point to make. I meant living in a structured house with rules and order lends to respect. This can be done without or with violence. Having experienced such an...

In my experience, the ENTJs that come from a more conservative background are more considerate of family and others. The ENTJs that have grown up in full freedom since they were a child have a...

This is so true. It seems like no matter what solution or system or society you setup, there's always criticism. You can't not do something because of criticism - there's always criticism. It's...

If we can setup a set of space stations orbiting around the solar system, that can serve as infrastructure for storage, food, water, oxygen, medical supplies, etc. For example, suppose a mission...'
