Everything you wanted to know about INTJs but were afraid to ask!

I've seen this too ...I don't seek out NTP men, but I seem to end up with them/or like them.
I've actually never met an INFJ so I have no opinon ):
Answer: You don't, you just consistently do your own thing instead of going 'involvement, involvement, involvement'.
Someone who attempts to grab and pull the maw open will end up with tooth marks on their hands.
1. To be worry free and independent, same as most people.
1. That's two questions and the philosophy is one of complete independence of thought and ideas.
2. ENTP - Socialite, opportunist narcissists
ENTJ - Intolerant busy-bodies
INTP - Stunted individuals
3. Not really, ISTJs make the best rivals because you can engage in friendly competition which involves knowledge sharing instead of 'i'm right, you're not' type NTP debates.
4. Not the type that others look for because our greater good involves independence not co-dependence
5. Not that much, but enough for it to be noticeable and many people either think i'm INTP, ISTJ or INFP.
A sensible INTJ will believe what they see the evidence for, if they see the evidence for religious belief then no, if they do not then they will be skeptical.
Ghost ships passing in the night.
If one INTJ is inaccessible then two is positively a conundrum and three is a mystery.
Weighing in here for some diversity of experience:
1. Agree with [MENTION=3473]InvisibleJim[/MENTION] - independence and worry free are definitely big parts of my goal. I also want power and, as I get older, love to factor in as well.
2. I love these three. ENTJs and INTPs because they're adorable and I feel like they're easy to communicate with - we have the same priorities. I don't think I know any ENTPs.
3. I have a difficult time getting along with the ESTJs I've met because they tend to be controlling. I don't do controlling. I know two ENFPs who can be challenging for me too because they seem to be offended by/take personally almost everything I say. It's frustrating. Half the time I'm not even talking about them and they'll assume I'm trying to imply some sort of criticism.
4. Not me. I don't think about the greater good because I don't feel like I'm qualified to make decisions for the good of everyone. I'm very much of the "live and let live" mentality. People don't all have the same needs. I wouldn't want anyone making decisions about mine.
5. I was more the stereotypical INTJ as a teenager but my N is the strongest aspect of my personality and I think the T/F split is getting blurrier the older I get. I'm getting much more sensitive to the needs of others and able to understand subtle communication - I spent a year in Americorps working with nothing but Fs. I think it changed me quite a bit. It is definitely possible for a mature INTJ to get emotions and come to appreciate them (and F types). I'm still rigid about my needs and independence though. That's not going away.
Agree. I've always found this strange. You'd think we would love each other. Maybe we need some E or F or P to bring us out of our shells?
I consider it a simile for when the government lowers the interest rates to create economic growth.
Growth is at a certain level you can push the string to make growth, but it hardly makes a dent because the string just curls up!
Similarly you put lots more INTJ in and you don't get very much more INTJ out. INTJs being very much the opposite of EPs (who tend to explode when you put 2 in a box, the smaller the box the faster the explosion) we don't feed back well against one another and will orbit with the minimum interaction, not a very synergistic experience.
Sex for it's own sake is low on my priority list.
Maybe once every 3-4 months? Really sad movies/books will get me. In order for me to cry about my own life, it has to be BAD.
