It's been true in my experience that INTJs and INFJs are very well suited to each other. My best relationship by far was with an INTJ, and it lasted a couple of years, only breaking apart ironically because of a required move for college. The melding of Ni is totally magical. It's been said...

Huh. I've had multiple relationships with both introverts and extroverts, and there's a great deal to be gained from either. All have been with intuiters though, save one very short lived relationship with an ISTP. Generally, relationships with extroverts tend to be far more stressful, but...

Well, having an ENTP best friend since I was 6, and having been dating an ENTP for 8 months now, I can say "excellent friends, complicated lovers" is spot on. It is not easy at all, and I have been through enough wonderful relationships to have a good context. Methods of showing affection are...

I've been fascinated with the "Stress and the INFJ" thread for a while now. It's an interesting idea that our mind will automatically restructure our cognitive function order to deal with a problem. I notice Nobleheart says in that thread that he can sometimes voluntarily flip Ni with Fe. In...

I'm not a cognitive functions guru, so I can't explain it -- I can only say that I go through those spells as well where I seemingly just need to hit a big off switch on the world. I'd love some insight on it too, as periods of withdrawal are mentioned in more than one INFJ summary I've read...

Generally, I'm on the look out for something genuine, and a fuck buddy seems antithetical to that -- almost like a place to get stalled out in the sense that if you have a fuck buddy, you probably don't (shouldn't) have anything genuine going on with anyone else (granted the special case of an...

Type 3, Ni, Te. Although, are these supposed to be relatively static? Reading those types and looking at where I've been in the past, those descriptions almost seem like long term 'moods' I've gone through at one point or another.

When I feel truly accepted, loved, and appreciated, it's like being fueled by a conduit of light that percolates into everything I do. I feel as though I can turn everything into magic when I have a wonderful relationship to stand upon -- more inspired, more creative, more productive, happier...

Have to say, every time I read one of your posts I'm blown away by its insight and clarity of presentation. What you wrote about ENTP/INFJ interaction certainly put a lot in perspective for me. Seems like someone somewhere should be paying you for the mad skills you have in breaking these...

In a relationship with an ENTP girl now -- everything Nobleheart has said has been very true to my experience. I've been in relationships with ENFPs, an INTJ (far and away the best), an ENTJ, and an ENTP. Of the above, my ENTP relationship feels the most strained, the most unnatural, and I feel...

Have to say my most satisfying relationship was with an INTJ girl. She was/is incredible, and it worked great between us. She was actually very assertive in terms of relationship dynamics and physically -- kind of surprised me on both fronts. Robot is definitely a misnomer. This was the...

You know, I think I'll add to this too, since I'm getting some great responses. Should have answered this in the first place. :) ENTPs really do have an infections enthusiasm about them. ENTPs I've known have a very structured, career-oriented side and then a mystical side that seems to tie...

Thank you all for the keen insights -- it's greatly clarifying my understanding of the situation. To be honest, I own and run a business, am involved in several creative projects, graduated college with honors, and am always driven by an internal quest to make the world a better place in my own...

Hm. I'm standing at the precipice of a relationship with an ENTP girl I've known for a few years. She recently said she's loved me all this time, and I'm considering whether it will really work. I have to say, Antiquary's post seems pretty accurate in most ways, with the exception of one -- that...
