:unsure: You were right. He burned it when I tired to exploit the Fi. He deleted all of our instagrams together from his page.

Ok, thanks.. yeah I was torn between that strategy (which I already tried for a week and didn't work?) and trying to fix it in the moment while the emotions are still raw. I kind of compromised...

Sorry for hosting the text on another site, I'm kinda paranoid and embarrassed about sharing this sort of thing on the www TL;DR: INTJ and INTP friendship gets frosty because INTJ wants space and...

Thanks for the expanded and helpful reply. The child is 3 years old so I don't suspect it is related to that. Honestly I'm not so convinced it is chemically related more so than it the home...

Thank you, very helpful reply. especially about the fact she has insecurities and needs to feel appreciated. No surprise, she actually only has 2 people she can call friends, her BF and a childhood...

-Why aren't you satisfied with how you were born? -If you were born 100 years ago before the ability to medically alter your gender, do you think you would have been able to live in your male...

ummm, not a lot of substance in the video (is that intentional?) but my guess is the woman is INTJ and the man is ENFP.

High Fe INTP here. I feel strong obligation to create harmony around me. Especially in the work place. I don't have it in me to disagree with anyone to their face, especially when I will be...

I'm wholly uninterested. I enjoy some structured competition, but nothing to do with sports. If I do play sports its only Tennis or Golf, and just to pass the time with friends.

Mmhm. Curiosity. About you Are you tough? Or do you cry with every little thing? - Tough Do you seldom cry or do it often? Hate it? Don't really mind it?- Seldom cry-It can be good when alone to...

Fair enough... time will tell. That's why I wanted to be careful about proceeding and hence my posting here asking for input.

Great, thank you. Never thought of it from that perspective. it's possible I suppose. Hmm, yes- that makes sense. Thanks for putting it that way!

Thank you all for your replies. This community is a great resource for understanding what makes others of the same flock tick. Sometimes my personality with close friends can be intrusive and hasty...

Sounds good to me CarePolice.I could never do hookups/FWB. But I'm going to be GrammarPolice and let you know that an is not the proper article to use with usual. Since usual is pronounced with...

As the title leads... is this a typical reaction? As an INTP... I see emotional disclosure as a way of deepening a relationship, in this case friendship. It feeds my Fe. In my next interaction...

A piece of music, by Simon and Garfunkel I like this song in an ironic and funny way, although it's how I can actually feel sometimes. Maybe an INTP in a Ti-Si loop. Some INTJ traits in there,...

It can put me in some discomfort, but not as much as my ESTJ father. It really unnerves him.

I find that as long as someone else initiates the conversation I can pick it up very easily and carry it with confidence and charm. If they are someone I fancy all that goes out the window as...

I read your post. I have nothing to offer but my sympathies. Hope you can get through this and work out a solution. It sounds really tough. :unsure: He sounds like a jackass. :dry:

OH god.... I got through 4 years of high school without going to one orchestrated social event and then came senior prom. Practically forced to go by my parents and peer pressure. Like @Iamtp I ended...

Respect her...you want to be in this for the long haul? then quit tripping over your dick-- you could mess this up quickly. You asked for relationship advice... not how to I get in this girl's...

In contrast to the above ^ :tongue: (but I appreciate and respect your position and honesty Calvin)... I am an INTP and the idea of a marriage to a fascinating and wonderful woman is very...

I think it could well be be an NFP Fi thing, if internet personality descriptions are to be our guide... because here is what is said about the INFP (Fi dominant):

The basis for this question is reading what is said about ENFPs on the internet in type descriptions.

I don't see how we treat animals today as much different fundamentally as how we have treated them for the last 50,000 years: Beef, it's what's for dinner. How it becomes dinner doesn't seem to me to...

I'm not talking about any sort of serious self-loathing, but rather more like being hard on ourselves for making faux-paus, generally of the social kind. One thing as an INTP I avoid at all costs is...

Haven't seen it yet. But tonight I wanted to break down and cry at the ending of Saving Mr. Banks. Such a Fe moment. I suppressed it though. Watching it by myself with nobody within 100 miles I would...

Just last night ran a MBTI on the immediate family. Dad is ESTJ Mother is ISFP Sister tested ENFJ, but I think she's really an ESFP. (she's not very mature) Being stuck in the same...

First things first, here’s something else to reflect about… you are young. Teenagers and people in their early 20s might face more emotional challenges than “normal” people. Part of this is due to...

Ni is arrogant INTJs :rolleyes:

Math is anathema to me!! Since 3rd grade it was my bitter academic enemy. Any abstract science (physics, chem, etc) also was never any interest and avoided at all costs.

Good thread, thanks. You guys have 0 Fe, and it's annoying to even this NT who thinks a lot of it's BS anyway, but still... Related thread I started: ...

Ok, so.... this is not something foreign. I have been there before myself a couple times (with ENFP? as well). I think the problem in general is as INTPs we can be quick to get excited about new...

In general: underdogs and those who are marginalized...basically if society as a whole or a majority has a prejudice against them, I'm usually interested to hear their side of the story and try to...

Some parts I liked or laughed about

Haha, I thought of this exact same story when reading the original post! haha

Bump.. a valid and worthwhile question Not INTJ, and I'm not answering your question, but I ^ First of all, try to show emotions and Be responsive to the emotions of others.

Yes. have you tried to type your parents? I'm pretty sure I've been working with an ESTJ father and an ISFP mother... I don't connect with either of them much at all.

Particularity in the case of INTP and INTJ here we have two types that share Introversion, iNtuition, and Thinking preferences... on the surface and what I have believed is that these types are...

Thank you, that makes me feel a bit better; I can see where you are coming from in your logic. I have mentioned to this person once before (in writing-which i find to be the best medium) the...

A friend of mine, an INTJ teenager, is driving me crazy with their lack of ability/willigness to express gratitude. I am pretty sure this is a maturity issue that is perhaps compounded by certain...

OP, I identify with a good amount of what you are saying. I tend to be a germ freak though, so there is a limit that I reach quicker with regards to mold, unsanitary conditions etc. But clutter...

What's funny is I thought this was supposed to be the other way around. INTP is the one who needs to get deep with ideas books and online seminars and is keen to devote hours to their study,...
