Might sound weird an INTJ talking about personal connection but this is very important to me. When I meet people I try to figure out very early on what personal connection we have. So I am very interested to understand what other people's values and experiences of life are - for them. For me it...

I like your answer! I have a friend who has the same attitude. She is great to hug. She is good at getting people out of their shells. I might be a bit of an anomaly as far as INTJs go. I love hugs. My mother told me this week that I have always been very cuddly. I am very close to my family so...

I like your theory. I have wondered about the difference between people with Fi/Te and Fe/Ti in their types before. I've noticed that my friends with Fe/Ti (in whatever order) seem to be better at analysing things – particularly analysing what relationships mean and perhaps emotions that go with...

This is why I like science. Continually questioning to get at the real truth. I LOVE science actually.

22 Hmmm, I'm actually phobic of violent movies. And I used to also be phobic of loud noise when I was a kid. I like LOTS of peace and quiet and space too.... unless I am playing music. And I am one of those people who has to remove all labels from my clothing (which can't be anymore scratchy...

Nice to hear your update! My first reaction to that was "hell that's a bit harsh he is so blunt about your mushy poem idea" but then I remembered that when I first met my partner he wrote me mushy poems and I sort of reacted the same way. I was really unsure about it and a bit squeamish because...

Neigh! :deadhorse: Sorry! Couldn't resist. You're welcome. I hope it proves to be useful. You can grill me for INTJ stuff any time BTW. :) Let us know how you get on with Mr INTJ too.

Ah yes this is what I meant. I think I frustrate F types as well. I also have that void thing as well where sometimes something big will happen that I think I should have a strong emotional reaction too and nothing at all happens. Like family members dying even. I started wondering if I was...

Bingo! This is true. I have terrible, explosive arguments with an ISFJ friend of mine sometimes because she starts going off on what appears to me to be some irrational emotional tangent that I can't make any sense of and then I try to end the argument as quickly as possible by being dominating...

Hmm maybe cool and reserved is a common thing. I have an INFJ friend that I thought was INTJ initially because we both seemed to be so good at going off into daydream mode and being aloof in a similar way. But he's a business owner so I always saw him organizing things for the business and...

That's interesting. I am sort of similar but in a slightly different way. If I believe in the project I am working on then I lead by setting the course that things need to go down to reach the goal and then if other people follow me it's because I am sort of providing the focus, determination...

Just wondering how you guys perceive INTJs and how you would know when you meet someone that they were INTJ and not INFJ.

Obama definitely seems ENTJ.

Hey soulseeker, even though I'm INTJ I can relate to what you are saying here, though in a slightly different way because INFJs use extroverted feeling (Fe) as the 2nd function and INTJs use introverted feeling (Fi) as their 3rd! I definitely think this is an INFJ trait. I recently watched a...

This is f***ing classic!
