'I'm seriously considering marriage to my longtime ENFP girlfriend. But do you think she'll be able to give me a little more space when we are settled down in marriage? My two biggest problems with...
I'll revive this in the rare event anyone else wants to comment.
While I certainly can agree with the crux of what you're saying in your post, particularly the summary above (and yes, INTPs do question these seemingly meaningless conventions for what they are), I...
It seems that I can never achieve the kind of satisfaction in my career that other people experience (although my career is solid and does use many of my talents). Not completely sure if it's...
Nice insight. I totally agree that it seems like a match up destined for clashes.
Dad: ISTJ Mom: ISFJ Younger brother: ESFP Me: INTP
sometimes they ask candidates to take the test.
How big of a role does MBTI play in many HR departments? Are candidates ever eliminated solely by MBTI type?
Newer show....but Rosa Diaz from Brooklyn Nine-Nine. yeah, the female feeler is a popular archetype.
Lol that sounds right.
Any further analysis on why these two would be good in a relationship?
Cultural norms and so-called ideals.
Why in theory is an ESTJ so good with INTP? I've heard this often, and can think of several reasons why, but I'd like to hear further analysis of this.
Fair enough. :tongue:
I was positive someone would quickly provide a response of this nature. If you look at my first post, I specified that I was going to focus on the preference of a heterosexual male ESTJ. That's all....
I thought that disclaimer goes without saying. MBTI is about generalizations and stereotypes by nature.
Absolutely right. Bad word choice. I will change it.
As you know, the stereotypical male is a T type--rational and logical--while the stereotypical female is the F type--sensitive and emotional. Considering these longstanding cultural views, when a...
Let me first provide the disclaimer that this, of course, is not definitive, but my generalized opinion. ESTJs strongly uphold societal traditions. I believe that their faith in these cultural...
Two of my closest friends for over 10 years are INFPs. I'd say one comical (and well-known) trait they share is their lack of precision in certain statements. They remember the details of past...
ESTJs are best with other SJs. In my opinion, they have a VERY difficult time with NFs. For a male ESTJ, I believe the best match is a female ISFJ.
I'm not even sure this is possibly measurable. If so, it would obviously have to be a J or some sort. Perhaps SJ. What do you think?
I'm absolutely 100% sure that I'm an INTP. But I can sometimes fake being an ENTP socially when I'm out. But I still need serious re-charging time afterwards. I should also mention that these ESFJ...
An ESFJ is supposed to be a complete opposite of me. Yet somehow I keep becoming attracted to (and eventually dating) these sweet ESFJs. What's going on? And are these relationships sustainable? I...
That's exactly what I would expect and believe it is generally accurate. Personally, I'm an independent who votes Republican.
Haha! As an INTP, I find that response is hilarious. Yet so true and familiar for me...
Yeah it's always seemed like a fairly incompatible group to me. In general, of course, because it depends on the individuals involved.
INTPs can definitely be goal oriented. In fact, all of them are to some extent. We all set goals and accomplish them (to varying degrees). The intp goals may not be as traditional as those other...
One of my best friends is INFP, another is ESTJ. They seem to think the opposite on every issue (though they hardly know each other). Do you think these types would conflict as much as just about any...
As I said in the ESFP area, Don't Stop the Party for ESFPs.
INTPs are the most mysterious in general. ENTJs are the most mysterious to me.
Hahaha! Having a best friend for the last 15 years who is an ESTJ, I can say that paraphrase is essentially accurate.
I have to say that the N/S thing has really been getting to me lately too. I love a lot of S type women at first, but it just doesn't seem workable. I miss that deeper intellectual connection and we...
Interesting...good point. I know this requires a great deal of knowledge on an artist from a while back now, so not everyone will know WTF is going on. But feel free to chime in if you know the...
Yeah I know know what you mean. I believe that Neo from the Matrix is a rare lead character INTP. But that has a lot to do with the unusual philosophical nature of the movie and the fact that the...
Calvin I can see what you mean about your types. Paul I can definitely see as ESTJ. I may disagree on John the apostle being INTP though. Although he does have that kind of calm/detached tendency, he...
Is it possible that Beach Boys composer legend Brian Wilson is an INTP? I never would have considered this as even a possibility until someone argued for it. In the 60s he achieved autonomy and...
INTPs are generally big picture logical thinkers. So they would create the architectural ideas and leave implementation to others. Lol.
Troll thread? It may be a dumb thread, or moronically phrased, but I'm serious about the topic. I have the tendency to get extremely attracted to ESFJs, which never seems to end ideally. And yet here...
In the case of Solomon I'm not positive whether or not he would be an INTP, but I would probably say he was (if I had to guess). He was certainly motivated by the pursuit of wisdom and knowledge. In...
I'm not sure that I can explain it better than other resources. So I'll just send a few links: INTP personality | 16 Personality Types Portrait of an INTP A few excerpts: --Accumulated...
I greatly appreciated your relationship analysis, for the record.
Interesting thread. I definitely see some truth in it. Not sure if it is completely universal, or effected by T and F as well. But I'd like to hear more opinions..
You think Solomon was INTP? Was it his interest in knowledge/wisdom that makes you think that?
Good point. I sometime morph into being perceived as ENTP and feel a certain kinship with that type.
Yes, this may be kind of theoretical topic. But can you somewhat alter your type if you wanted to? Obviously I don't think you can change your cognitive preferences. But can you transform yourself,...
Hahaha! Yeah I've honestly thought about giving extremely absurdist answers like that. Frankly they come to my head more often than normal answers. Answering that I'm a CIA special agent and my job...
Hahaha!
This may just be a personal quirk and not necessarily an INTP thing. But I always hate having to catch up with casual acquaintances with these type of questions. Do you? One reason I probably...
Judging by your photo, the INTJ men wouldn't mind getting to know you either. :wink:'
