'One thing I find funny about rereading this thread is finding people who jump in to talk about how they annoy themselves ( presumably as an INTP ) but they have since changed their MBTI to something...
Art is my main obsession I have lots of characters. When I was young I'd draw species of animals and made up things and name them. I still measure everything basically on visual input and...
I get the support-panic too. I hate needing to be helped. Collaboration is best. Yeah I had some anxiety/panic issues in college. Hmm, I would say try to get things done on your own as much as...
a) What phone model do you use? HTC Vivid ( shitty old model looking to get something else cheap and reliable ) b) How do you hold your phone normally? Two hands sideways c) What do you use your...
so you're my extroverted brother huh weird I'm just going to watch.
Dear INTJ #1 We had a good run, didn't we? We were competitive and accelerated each other's growth as artists. There were a lot of things we didn't understand about each other, but that...
Dear ISTP #1 You're pretty adorable. You amaze me how you can spew cute bullshit like a cuddly animoo and also have a heated, curse-filled debate on politics that doubles as humorous and...
1. Have you ever been confused about finding your true self? Yes. My life is marked by different stages and shifted personalities. Sometimes I wish I could return to one because I liked it a...
Hey now.. We're trying to help I wish you luck.
He might not know how to handle a crisis of yours, not sure. I know if someone breaks in front of me, it feels kind of contagious, and I might want to save my head by leaving them alone for awhile. ...
Sex =/= maturity, and if things are going badly it's probably best not to be banging on top of all that.. I think there's some trick to finding out how you must function on your own as well as...
Well, I'm a girl but I dislike touching. Maybe he allows it because you were friends, but if he was mad at you and you were trying to elicit a reaction it might have made him angrier. I know I get...
I grew up wanting to be a paleontologist and had a lot of interest in the sciences, usually reading up on dinosaurs, remembering facts about them and their naming and classification. I mostly liked...
: | But.. That's like me all the time, except not so much the crying Actually my periods aren't too different from my everyday experience, I just feel a little more sad and defeated than usual,...
ENFJ Friend: Sometimes I swear you hate me. INTP me: (for the umpteenth time) No, I don't hate you. One time while we were having a usual bout of misunderstanding each other completely, we...
Hmm, yeah. I think the theory is alright. Like, I find if I don't fit a situation, I tend to mold a little bit until I fill a role, even if it exhausts me. I think my core needs remain the same...
Skull shape sounds kinda like flimsy science (spinal fluid separates brain from skull anyway) And I think they tried that stuff in the past
Touching releases FEAR TOO
Hugging is kind of a given norm I got used to, for like coming and going of people you don't see in a great while. That, or showing appreciation. With people I don't know, I'd rather not touch...
I have a bunch of J friends and they remark on some occasions that I seem to hate everything, which is kind of a hurtful blanket statement! There is a short list of things that I totally get pure...
Did it - I'm apparently not concerned with matching clothes but mismatched clothes bother me
If it were my luck like... An INTP x INTP pairing would produce some like ESFJ paradox children
It sounds like you're attached and wanting control when there is no longer a situation to control anymore. Maybe he can sense that, and is trying to deal with it a bit impersonally like asking you...
I developed my own shorthand at one point to make writing and reading easier, but it's indecipherable for the most part. I had to write a comic for comics class, and it felt too weird to let...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BvSfdtb_foE @insultfashioner it's funny because I'm all way for prog rock, but can't stand jazz! I find some humor in bad lyrics but overall I'm even a sucker for...
I think we should incorporate farts into famous pop star's routines anyway, it's six of one and half dozen of the other umm, Music and art are some of our most entertaining / pleasing things. But...
story of my life
Yeah! Usually INTPs are pretty limited or focused. I kind of am, I only want to do one thing like really well, but I think a lot of those things sound fun. It's great you branched out. Don't...
I'm saying some of us are skeptical of our typing, like I'm artistic for example and INTPs are usually cast as mathematical. But on most accounts I seem to match. It was in ref to your comment...
Welcome! Like Lucas I tend to post a bunch and forget a few months, then come back and post a bunch again. There are usually some good discussions going on at any point. I may not be a super match...
I don't think I've had a close relationship with an INFP, but I have had some acquaintanceships with INFPs. I once read that INTP's Fe plays the aspirational role, meaning that they think it's a...
What if this is all a simulation and someone else is playing the game
Contemplating the tiny rectangular soaps, feeling morose from how chilly and damp it is, and how scratchy the bed cover is.
When I took the myers briggs test for the first time, I was like oh, well they're going to put me in with the artisans or whatever, because I always score as like a creative fluffy artist So I was...
In ref to Mr. Lemon's stuff about showing feelings, I feel if there isn't enough feeling-talk in a conversation (perhaps with another thinker) I fill the gap with the feely talk. But if someone...
I had 5 or 6 friends that were INTJ, I didn't know until later. I think I subconsciously gravitate towards them because they are up-front thinker types. I've also had trouble with them though, like...
I had depression since I was 14, so I kinda wonder about my typing too sometimes. But there are parts of me that fit the type, that I have always remembered being. Sometimes I get that 3rd-person...
If your detail oriented/perfectionistic tendencies were about second guessing yourself or exploring all the possibilities it'd sound a little INTP, but if they are more just about making sure things...
Bows and Sniper Rifles I like the thought of being stealthy/hidden when I make my shot, and also the precision it requires
I want to bring this one back : ) I'm left handed, artistic, but am INTP. My avatar is an unfinished picture I did around 3 years ago. Proving analytics can be fairly right brained.
I learned yesterday that Xylitol is an alcohol based sugar used a lot in chewing gum because it's a kind of sugar that bacteria can't eat/helps kill them. It's totes uninteresting.. And hardly...
I can't go to sleep at night without thinking about all the pain and suffering in the world.
Augh, I am having flashbacks to a friendship with an INTJ. From what I learned from a similar situation, they don't really want to be consoled (if they do, they will initiate it), or they don't...
I find leaving the best option. When I was younger I thought that'd be sad, but I guess not really, especially when you spend a long time away like college. My mom(ISFJ) isn't bad but she has...
Listen to all the monologues and dialogues in my head, make up and continue story plotlines, draw a lot, internet.
Most of my friends now are INTJs, and I had one back in middle school/high school which was through the roof. First I'll say not all of them are the same of course. And the only child INTJ was...
I clearly saw a truck pulling in today but I still walked in front of it because I was holding an imaginary dialogue in my head.
I read the first post but I'm kind of TL;DR'ing really hard on the rest My reaction is Leave that man alone Nobody should have to bend backwards like you did, that's sick. If he enjoys pushing...
It goes something like this: Now this is the story all about how my life got flipped, turned upside down... : P
Sometimes I may stay awhile sorry, I'm crashin' your thread INTPs think they're so clever what's even up with that..'
