'I second the idea about teaching him Scratch. It's fairly simple to use. There are blocks of draggable code that can be used program different Sprites on the canvas. Scratch has various tutorials on...

Yes. I only buy clothing that I feel good in; I've gotten rid of everything in my closet that doesn't achieve this (everything else I own is reserved for pajamas). Part of it is because I've adopted...

When I get an epiphany

You could also get him an Arduino kit or a Raspberry Pi, and have him program it.

Learn to accept yourself first.

There are a disproportion number of INTPs (or at least people who think they are) in tech. I'm sure you'd be able to find a ton at a tech conference or a hackathon.

Like others have already mentioned, I'm aware when the other person is simply trying to hit on me because the interaction feels shallow and I can sense that they want something from me. However, if...

This is a very interesting topic. The most fulfilling use of my four functions has been singing in choir. I think this was only possible due to the nature of the program (very difficult music and a...

I actually made a list after I got out of my last relationship. I think a lot of this came up when I realized that as an INTP, I wasn't compatible. No codependency (We can vent to each other...

Yeah, I used to struggle with this a lot when I was younger (I still do to an extent although I've made significant improvements). A lot of it stems from a fear of intimacy. Once you experience a few...

Care to share the name of the playlist?

I regulate my sleep schedule by waking up at the same our each day. I don't sleep in for more than an hour on weekends. This means that I always get tired and fall asleep at around the same time.

I was very unemotional when I was younger, and it really bothered my parents so they put me in therapy. Now I have all this Fe that I don't know what to do with.

This is not all too bad. You just have to judge whether or not the person is in a place to absorb the lesson properly. If they're overly emotional, that'll just make it worse, in which case you can...

My sister is an ENFP, and although we used to argue a lot when we were younger, a wonderful friendship began to bloom once we developed our inferior functions.

This one is so true. People often mistake my obliviousness for coldness.

Affirmative.

I know 1, 4, and 5 as well as Java. I'm picking up the rest over the next year since I'm a CS student.

It's funny because I have an ENFP sister as well, and she's the only person I would let do that. I regularly go to her for advice now, because she's really good at helping me figure out what to do in...

I only like comfort if I first make the effort to reach out to the other person for help, in which case, helping me talk my problems out really helps.

I like to dress up and do my makeup because I think it adds +10 charisma.

Congratulations, you just finished a week early! Use the extra time you have to get your professor's input on your work so you have the best chance at getting a perfect score.

The whole time my current S.O. was trying to woo me I was totally oblivious even though everyone around me already knew. It took for him to kiss me for me to realize he had romantic intentions...

It all comes down to self-care. I have an arsenal full of things that make me feel better: Listen to angsty music Read a good book Exercise Clean Hang out with friends Do homework ...

When I first took the test I had very undeveloped Fe and very high Ti, so I scored quite solidly into INTP territory. I was quite an asshole back then, but everyone in my family but me is a...

I had that same dream, except I was going to the moon.

When a conversation starts getting too emotionally loaded, so you deflect with humor.

1. Is your hair long, medium or short? I get it cut up to my shoulders and usually let it grow until it reaches my elbows. This usually takes about a year. 2. Do you cut your own hair or does...

I freakin love this game! One of my favorite things to do is to troll the townies by putting another town member on the stand in the last leg of the game.

Yes, there is a research program, but I am still waiting for the program to begin for the semester. There is also programming team that holds open practices, so maybe I can attend those as well. ...

That's the problem. My university has a fairly high acceptance rate, so there are a lot of mediocre students here. The honors college at my university requires students to take additional...

In all honesty, if employee morale is so low that management needs to force them to attend events, then there is probably a problem with their management style.

I'm studying CS in uni at the moment and this is what I've heard from my friends already in the field: A higher concentration of people who are emotionally unintelligent or socially inept An...

I'm a sophomore in college who is looking to surround herself with people who are driven toward academic success. I used to be in a rigorous elementary school and attended an equally rigorous program...

I find it effective to use my dead time for tasks that won't take much time/energy. You can usually do those while watching TV in the background or something like that.

I suggest having a discussions with her about the subject at hand. It's possible that she could be developing social anxiety (very common at that age), but she could also just be in need of alone...

The advice here is spot-on. It's really important that you are taking notice of her personal interests and actually use it to spend time with her. It'll make her more likely to open-up to you in the...

Some people don't like it when you come up with solutions to their problems. They just want to rant.

I sometimes hang out with people that I dislike because they give me free food.

*Raises hand*

Yes, but only for the purpose of internet trolling. Are INTPs even good at identifying manipulative behavior?

People who try to take advantage of others

You trying to compromise your emotional needs for someone who cannot nor does not want to fulfill them is not healthy. You're suggesting that you may get back together with this guy if he figures out...

Nah, a few days ago Niantic released an augmented-reality game where people can catch Pokemon in different geographic locations. It's similar to the geocaching thing Nintendo had a while back, but...

I spent all of today and yesterday looking around my neighborhood for Pokemon...'
