I'm not sure I would necessarily recommend an INTJ/ESTJ...|||Sorry that wasn't clear. Just that... that happens to me all the time. All. The. Time. And I didn't realize that was a thing. Never connected that.  Like.. recognizing actors. If I know I've seen...|||Father: INTP Mother: ENTJ me: ESTJ sister: ENFP  I do not get my mother at all. My father and I have a lot more in common and understand each other better.|||This is an actual thing!??|||I definitely do not sometimes think I am a feeler. It is by far one of my stronger traits. Reinforced by my NT parents (INTP and ENTJ). If you meant point as in preference, probably J, though I...|||Fe is the one function I still feel very shaky on in my understanding of. It feels like this huge gap in my knowledge. I have read countless descriptions of it, read articles about it, asked for...|||I've found the tertiary to be the most elusive, most difficult to spot, and least developed of the functions. Dom and Aux essentially make up how you think. Inferior stands in direct contrast to your...|||HAHAHAHAHA No.  I love ISTJs. Don't get me wrong. I know 3 that are some of my best friends in the world. In fact, I was just maid of honor at a wedding for one of them. So I have a great...|||Boy, isn't that the truth.

(It's...|||Define play. I have an account. And I would like to learn the game. I just haven't had time being in college and all.  My boyfriend is very into the game. He's an INTJ and prefers support, if...|||It's ok. I'm not a fan of ISFPs either. Honestly, I feel like the ESTJ would need to be incredibly mature and have a well-developed feeling side to get along with a feeler at all.  I've mostly seen...|||I'm going to be finishing up projects and studying for exams myself. -_- So I feel your pain.|||This puts me just over the line into the secure quadrant.|||Well... by this definition, I can name several ways in which I am not the stereotypical ESTJ.  1.

I'm totally cool with this. =D  311114|||First thing I thought of was the password to Calvin and Hobbes' clubhouse.|||My first real crush (in middle school and high school) was an ESFP. I simultaneously find Se incredibly attractive and unbelievably annoying. I'm generally initially attracted until the Se/Fi...|||I'm not sure I would say Fe is best at comforting. The best person I have ever known at comforting people is my sister (ENFP). She always seems to know what the appropriate response is in any...|||Dad: INTP Mom: ENTJ Me: ESTJ Sis: ENFP  We have an interesting family dynamic. My dad is actually surprisingly particular about things for an INTP. He likes things to run a certain way. And he's...|||I'm an ESTJ, but I'm borderline on E/I.  My closest friends are 2 INTJs, an ISTP, and 3 ISTJs.  One of the INTJs is my boyfriend. One is my cousin. She's practically my sister. She's the closest...|||I have 3 ESTJ male friends.  1 comes across as fitting into the stereotype of pretty boy. He's a programmer with interests in audio/video, graphic design. He's more the stay at home or lounge at...|||me: ESTJ boyfriend: INTJ  We'd been best friends for about 2 years before entering into a relationship. The length of the friendship was not my decision.

I also know at least one INTJ female from college, possibly 2 (I'm not...|||I don't think I can group all NPs?  I love ENFPs. My sister is one. They're fun, deep, sweet, etc.  I like INFPs, but I watch from a distance and smile at their cute-ness. I don't know how to...|||I mostly agree with Epicyclic, except I think you should definitely include your reasoning. Explain to him why. He might be confused at having received a seeming green light and then you telling him...|||Your type: ESTJ  INFP: They're cute, and I like them, but I have no idea how to express this. I'm just completely at a loss for words or what to do around them. I don't want to be offensive,...|||YES! absolutely! Do this.

I feel like every time I try too much to be spontaneous and whatever, everything...|||I don't think the point of using Jesus as a role model is to become an immortal God-like being.
