'I didn't mean to suggest using perfectionism as an insult. It usually creates certain insecurities and worries, and also requires a certain skill set. You could attack those.|||It's a pretty cool idea, and it's hard to insult a model of a person so I think you did well considering you only had a theoretical description in front of you. I'd say don't give up on it.  The...|||I don't feel insulted. You actually complimented our intelligence and called us lazy, we get that all the time. And I'm not really sure I even cared the first time someone called me that.  These...|||If it's useful information for your research thing, it's not that I haven't had problems, I'm not talking to my dad for example because like your friend I can't stand it. But when it comes to...|||My parents are both left-leaning and non-religious. Maybe that played a part in it? That sounds like a really frustrating environment for an INTP to grow up in though.|||It wasn't strict in a straightforward way. They openly judged certain behaviors and were like If you do this I'm going to be very disappointed and lose respect for you. instead of just saying You...|||Me: INTP 5w4 Brother: INTP (probably 5w6) Dad: ISTJ (not sure but there's 1) Mom: ISTJ (no idea)|||My experience and observation tells me Fi users tolerate it better in general, high Fi better than low Fi because they have more control over it. It makes sense theoretically too. Inferior F function...|||My personality somewhat changes because I need to adapt my sense of humor and behavior, I think of certain concepts better in different languages. But my personality type doesn't change.|||1) What is your perceived mbti type? How certain are you of this assertion?  INTP, about 80% sure.  2) Where you considered to be an easy child (moderate in temperament, easy going, ect.) or a...|||My advice is pick a broad area so you have the opportunity to move around instead of repeating the same work every day. Otherwise even if you're interested now you won't be in the future because...|||Then you want to improve your use of Ne? You can improve Ne by socializing, putting yourself in new environments, getting out of your comfort zone, brainstorming ideas, trying to come up with...|||It sounds like your main problem is wanting to be more outspoken and social rather than turning into an ENTP. The theory says you can't change your type. Be who you wanna be you don't have to move...|||INFJ?  I got INTP in every other test so far and I don't think I use Ni but who knows?  That's the same wording as the comment above me, the brain is a strange thing.|||I personally think it's fun to learn and think about it but at the end of the day it's bullshit. Kinda like the possibility of ghosts actually being overlapping dimensions or universes or a...|||Agreed, he's the most realistic one.|||INTP characters I can think of right now: Spencer Reid, Victor Frankenstein (I think), Peter Parker, Bruce Banner, BBC/Movie Sherlock but those are ongoing debates so maybe not, Sheldon Cooper, Klaus...|||I genuinely can't tell if you're serious or trolling at this point.|||This is pretty interesting actually. I've been thinking about this and you know how cognitive functions have no scientific basis because they can't be tested? I was wondering if there could be a...|||I'll die before I get to it.|||Will it look as tiny as they do in the sky?|||The stars will get to witness this pretty late I think.|||I think it's valid but missing some parts. (ie not broad enough)|||Thank you all for your responses. I will try to get better at it.  Have you ever had any problem with this in the past? If you have, when did you start learning how to say no?|||I wanted to know how other INTPs are with saying no to people.   Unless it's something I really don't want to do I find it very difficult to say no to strangers and friends. If it's an old friend...|||INTPs aren't too fixed on impressions. Or I'm not, at least. I approach people with curiosity and my impression of them, the first one usually being negative and of some people downright cruel,...|||Okay this is the pattern I've observed:  I to E  INTP = Ti Ne Si Fe ENTP = Ne Ti Fe Si  The lowercase i/e indicate introversion/extraversion. If the letter order is the same save for I/E, the...|||I think Monty is an ENTP.|||Probably an ENTP so they can kick-start a bunch of friendships for me and when I come back I won't be too different.  I'm in my prep year at university, that's pretty much my priority right now...|||I liked the movie, didn't like the ending. It was kind of like a causal loop? I was expecting a more interesting solution than that.   As far as the typing goes I thought the main character  (I...|||Most dominant types see submissive types as weak and most submissive types see dominant types as aggressive and/or stuck up. It's how life works. Because emotionally people will always favor how they...|||Based on the results I'd say INTJ.  I'm not sure how to fully explain my thought process could also indicate INTJ as Ni is more unconscious than Ti but that may be stereotyping I'm not sure. ...|||Huh, nice idea. There could be a correlation.  My dreams are usually really vivid and it takes me a couple of seconds to come back to reality. They're either really creepy psychological thriller...|||Make posts and hope someone replies man. Share your thoughts, start a discussion. There are particular subforums for everything. Comment on other posts.|||I only suggested the app because it's easier to use. There is no experiment going on here and it's not a support group either. Everyone here just knows a little about MBTI and we talk about it....|||Everyone replied to the rest so I wanted to adress this. Ambivert isn't a thing in MBTI because your functions determine your extraversion/introversion. If your dominant function is introverted,...|||A female INTP is definitely not the majority and it seems like we're actually the complete opposite of the ideal female. I've been accused of trying to act like a dude to get dudes multiple times but...|||If you have a smart phone I suggest using the Tapatalk app.|||But for example that was kind of part of the problem in my relationship. There was hardly any conflict for months then I started to realize that the lack of conflict wasn't because we just got along...|||Okay I'll be honest. A lot of people are going to say MBTI doesn't define relationships but it's a personality theory so it kind of does a bit. If you gave a list of personality traits instead of...|||Friendship is different. You don't have as many responsibilities in a friendship, the expectations are different and you don't have to communicate with your friends as frequently as you would with a...|||I have experienced this and I tend to push through the I'm not interested anymore feeling and my interest usually comes back. It always comes and goes for me and it's the same for my other...|||All of them. If it's an emotional situation I'm kinda scared of it but if it's a debate or something similar I mostly can't be bothered with it. Also kind of depends on the person I'm supposed to be...|||Interesting, thank you for answering.|||I have a question. Let's say the world is ending and you have a spaceship. You've gotten the people necessary to build a civilization on board (scientists, politicians maybe, physically strong...|||I don't think everyone is equally valuable (although that does not mean anyone should be treated differently) but I don't think value can be determined by a price tag either. I don't care how rich...|||My theory is that introverts like listening and extraverts like talking. Two introverts? Lots of awkward silences. Two extraverts? People trying to talk over each other. (Don't get offended you know...|||That's an ExFP in a loop thing I think, my ENFP friend would probably describe herself in the exact same way. The difference is I think where our values come from. An ESFP's values would come from a...|||Oh I read some of those numbers wrong the picture is blurry on my phone. Then I'd guess ESFP because of high Se so Se definitely needs to be in dom or aux position. Tertiary Te in ExFPs can make them...|||I'd guess ENTJ but that looks confusing.'
