How would you tell apart an ESTP from an ENTJ with underdeveloped Ni?

I am excited. I just got out of a successful meeting with a high profile executive who agreed to be my mentor. Glad I chose the high risk, brutally honest approach rather than faking it. This is...

You're dangerously close. It was about drugs. Taking notes.

You have already received some good advice. Being direct is the best way forward with an ENTJ. In such situations I seek opportunities to spend quality time with the person and get to know them...

Dear self, You should have known better today. Sitting in a meeting with 15 scientists and being the only representative of the commercial function is a recipe for disaster. In doesn't matter...

Nah, Hypocrisy 1993 is way more painful.

Strikingly accurate in my case. I can really relate to the only knew 40% of who I was thing. I used to think of it as a kick-ass superpower - how independent I am compared to others and how...

I've been there. It is not ambition you lack, but meaning. There is no way you feel excited about something you see no meaning in. Try a structured approach to this. Imagine you wouldn't have to...

Thank you for sharing. This was quite interesting. I can definitely relate to most of what you've written, especially the mundane issues.

Do you dislike making decisions or: 1. Their step by step implementation? 2. The consequences of being wrong? In private life there is no way I would let anyone override my decision-making...

It is a common misconception INTPs are indecisive. People often forget we have a dominant judging function. Where we are truly indecisive is in close relationships (weak Fe). Unfortunately, this is...

The best way to buy independence. And an INTP can never have enough of it.

I will leave aside the fact you were in a relationship with someone and you mistyped them to such an extent, as the two types are quite different. Saying an INFP was less of a robot than INTP's is...

Interesting question. This is a consequence of being a 5 and what drives 5's in general - independence and authenticity. I am an INTP 5w4 and my former manager was an INFP 5w4 - while we shared a...

With my ISTJ partner - breakfast, lunch and dinner are efficiently cooked and served at the same time, wonderful healthy meals, everything gets meticulously cleaned immediately afterwards. Only the...

Masturbation is fine as long as you bring it to a glorious end. However, please do not extrapoleate the outcome.. all over the rest of us.

It depends on who is asking. Also, MBTI is all about preferences, not ability.

Buying into something without evidence - sounds like INTmission impossible.

This doesn't sound like an INTP, especially the projects and controlling nature you described. It is worth double checking his type.

You can't treat Ti in isolation, as its downsides directly relate to supressing underdeveloped Fe. It is when Fe isn't strong enough that Ti gets overused - in such cases Ti is the only...

Spot on. The only difference is I practice purposefully, especially before presentations and important meetings.

Be more specific and share your case if you would like any useful comments. Otherwise it's a guess game. If something contradicts my principles, I will not do it - it doesn't matter who the request...

One should never be proud of anything that isn't a direct result of their efforts and hard work. You could be grateful if you like, but this is as far as I would ever go.

One of my biggest crushes to date has been an INFJ. For a long time I thought he was an INTJ (he thought so too), but then got typed correctly. I seem to be into Ni-doms, but INFJs just top it for...

I thought I would comment on this, as I used to employ the same tactic for the exact same reasons. I was quite convinced this weeds out all the not interested/good/courageous/masculine/adjective of...

One more vote for INFJs. A mature one is: 1. Very heavy on Ni to grasp even the darkest subconscious aspects of complex problems and then suggest a simple for the patient explanation and...

I don't identify, I am great at both. If I were not, I'd have no clue how on earth I would otherwise flirt.. Are you sure you are an INTP? There are way too many people in your avatar and one of...

Seconded. Personally, I don't believe there is such a thing as an ambivert. The differences between INTPs and INTJs are quite significant. We do not share any functions at all and the proposed test...

INTPs are extremely individualistic - we have our own opinions and more often than not we have spent much more time constructing them. The reason it takes us more time - the data backing up each...

Make your interest blatantly obvious. So obvious he would not be able to overanalyze his way out and convince himself he is imagining it. THEN leave it up to him to make the next step. If I were him,...

We have a pattern. For the sake of precision, you should now rename your thread to: People who Annoy INTPs ?

Mature human beings do make compromises in their relationships. No one exists to fully accommodate your personality or meet all your needs. Compromising yourself, however, is a whole different thing....

Great band! Currently listening to train schedule announcements.. The weekend is on and I'm going to the British countryside!

One of our directors made an epic Freudian slip, while presenting in front of hundreds of people yesterday: We have a fantastic stragedy - now it is up to you to execute it! I was the only...

Summary report: Five minutes of my life wasted. One more vote for ESTP. I actually found the lack of N quite painful.

Come on now, this is like pulling the plug on the Colosseo. Don't all alphas come in beta version? Well, I do know an ESTP or two who never got the ENTJ patch booting, so you might be onto something...

This and the predictability of potential replies lead me to believe you are just pulling their leg;)

Dear ENFJ leadership development manager, You are yet another MBTI-certified self-proclaimed HR expert with a vague job description. I am tired of going through the same tests, personality quizzes...

I do appreciate your thinking behind wording, but it was precisely that which set the alarm. When you go as far as saying a type is your archenemy and you consciously steer clear of them, that should...

You definitely sound like a young INTP to me. You say you are not good at self analysis, but your post demonstrates otherwise. Ne undermining your plans, your weak Fe, the slippery morals due to...

Plenty of assumptions and beliefs, but no examples of real life experience. How many confirmed xNxPs do you know in real life? How did you reach these conclusions?

Unanalysable perfection with a mystical human touch. Think of Martha Argerich or Vladimir Horowitz playing Rachmaninoff piano concerto 3.

Looks are important, they serve as a basic filter. However, what attracts my attention does not necessarily keep it. Once the filter has done its job, it is indeed all about personality.
