MBTI

Logistician

Sentinels ISTJ

Practical and fact-minded individuals, whose reliability cannot be doubted.

No, no I haven't. I don't know that I can objectively, I've read too much. I think I need someone to assess me.

I agree with your point about Te, just based on statistics alone it is much more likely that I am istj. But I would still like to explore Si and Ni further.

Thanks for the response, I think your right I will have to have someone help me to type myself as opposed to trying to type myself. I will look on the sub forums as you suggested though.

I don't know how to determine which is my dominant function. Everyone dose both to some extent, but I'm just not sure which is my dominant function. The reason I've started to question this is...

lol, thanks I think I sorted out the female part but I'm still not sure about the S or N part.

How can you tell if you are a istj female or an intj female...please help

Interesting, so you can find different personality types that are high matches (compatible vs the same) Did you combine it with MBTI by asking them to self report type? How did you determine...

Would be interesting to see what types you match up with best. Ok cupid seems to be good at matching people that are the same as opposed to complimentary. For example it would match an intj with...

interesting I feel the same

I know exactly what your talking about, not an intj but what you described is what happens with me.

How long were you together and how long did it take to get over. If you don't mind me asking what was the reason. Was it an intp/istj issue for example him saying he doesn't get enough n type...

My 7 year relationship with an intp just ended. Istjs how have you dealt with the loss of a long term relationships in which you didnt want the relationship to end and when you still deeply love...

I don't know that I have met one, would like to get to know a infj.

I feel he doesn't like SJ types and that maybe it can't work based on that. His perfectionism is directed outward on to me and he is very critical. Its been 7 years on and off near the end.

Thats exactly it he says he doesn't want to keep hurting me. He says he dosent see a future. I feel like I ve lost him. He says he isn't able to reciprocate in the relationship. I don't know if this...

Have been in a relationship with an intp for 7 years on and off in the last few. He belives we are not compatable and dose not like the way he treats me. He recently broke up with me and says he is...

I am an istj but I feel the same about my type, glad to know I'm not only one. I am very frustrated by unhealthy or underdeveloped istjs.

I feel like I get punished for this all the time : (

No I don't understand how an intp or intj can be religious.It would be very interesting to talk to a religious intp or intj. It seems counterintuitive to me would like to understand it.

Curious, I don't understand how this is possible please explain.

Excited about this tread, I have not seen a lot of posts on intp and istj relationships. I have been with an intp for 7 years on and off in the past few. I could write you a book on Intps. I actually...

Theroretical question what would a relationship bw an infj and an istj look like is it even possible?

Many people hate being told they are wrong, and bluntness and direct communication is something they see as aggressive. Do you care about what they think when you are direct?

Lol good point

That's fair

Sounds pretty judgmental, I've had a pretty bad experience with an intp type proff so did an intp in the class.

Wait, you have a gf, but your an intp...lol. Sorry couldn't help myself, its meant in jest.

Omg so true

Hilarious

Pretty dam close to being gods

[QUOTE=Andyb9274;9238570]The only real requirements that I care for are intelligence, kindness and an aversion to histrionics.[/QUO. hahahahaha........ah histrionics. Men say they hate them but...

lol....yeah the people skills. i lack them too. but getting along with intjs is so effortless.

If they are underdeveloped or an unhealthy Istj than don't waste your time. If they are not unhealthy and some what developed try to appeal to their sense of logic you may have to prove that you are...

Nashville, lol.

Have you grown up with a narsacistic mother? Please share your experience and how it has affected you. How do you deal with it? What negative consequences have you suffered as result? Open to all...

Sounds really nice, I can hear the silence. The only thing that could make that better would be free hot dogs. Oh I didn't k ow they were banned. New to world of internet forums.

Its the difference bw intps and intj, intjs want you to understand if its important to them. Intps gave up 5 mins ago and mentally/physically walked away.

Those the nosie that comes with parades bother intjs as well? I don't like nosie distracts me from my thoughts, but maybe that's an S thing and N types can tune it out.

Lol, I enjoy being physically close to my intp but in slience so we can both be with our thoughts or sometimes listening to music in the car. But mostly the silence.

It sounds harsh it is but his intention wasn't to hurt me. He didn't really think that one through. Blunt honsesty is part of the istj/intp package, I just wish he didn't feel that way.

Thanks will respond with a private message when I have chace

I feel that your description is very accurate, I know how hard it is for them but I guess the it not being natural didn't matter because I see the effort involved and means a lot to me.

From what I see on the forums it seems to be rare, I have seen female intps with male istjs but not the other way around. The relationship is currently on the rocks, we have been together for seven...

I really like intjs, I have an intj boss and we get along very well. I never have to worry about hurting his feelings or what is politically correct. He is happy to theoretically disscus anything and...

We seem to be hopelessly draw to each other we have taken breaks where we have each dated other people. Personally I have dated S types and I find myself looking for the escape hatch while they fall...

My intp bf thinks all istjs me included are boring...and the sad part is that I see it too and find most other istjs boring...I wish he at least didn't think that, I wish I was an n type.

Thanks, nice to know there are different intps. Its been seven years and I don't know that I can do this for very much longer unless I see real change in him. My problem is that if it doesn't work...

The boring factor is big for him, not having the same mental abilities/perspective, the predictability....he hates it when the istj at his work offers helpful suggestions bc he sees the suggestions...
