'I was thinking of answering that I'm not very complex. But to your point, more often than not, I can't even figure out myself.|||u200bNot sure what you mean by random curveballs.|||Pens, and cursive. I use pencils for math, but nothing more. In my opinion, pens are easier and smoother to write with. I used to be a big fan of print because I thought cursive was too fancy for no...|||I read a lot. Can be almost anything, though I have a particular interest in investing. Much of my reading in the future will pertain to companies' financial statements. Other than that, video games,...|||My girlfriend is an ESFP. We've been together for over a year and a half now, with plans to marry once I graduate from college. Sometimes we get on each other's nerves a bit, and occasionally we...|||I've been watching a lot of the Big Bang Theory lately, and I must admit that I'm more like Sheldon than I wish. I'm not a genius (above average intelligence, but certainly not off-the-charts), and...|||Hi all. I'm new to the ISTJ forum. I used to frequent the INTJ forum at least for reading. The other day it occurred to me that I hadn't been on Personality Cafe in forever. In my time away, my MBTI...|||1. I thoroughly dislike tea. I've tried it at least twice before. Just don't care for it. 2. I do think society is going downhill in numerous ways. Not the least of which is the American fascination...|||I've been a Christian for 5-6 years.|||I knew it because I trusted her more than anyone I had known before, by far. She was also the only girl (maybe person) I've ever met who I could be comfortable with sitting with but doing different...|||I think I'm decent looking. I would never say that I have movie-star good looks. My girlfriend thinks I'm really cute, though, and her opinion is really the only one that matters to me. So I'm happy...|||I know that most types find blunt answers repelling, but for an INTJ that's usually the best way to do it. And if an INTJ asks you for advice, and he's not being sarcastic, you're probably in...|||I've only had one girlfriend (the one I'm currently with), and I haven't cheated on her, so nope. I'm so bad at flirting that I don't think I could ever hope to get the chance to cheat on her even if...|||Yes, it's possible to have platonic friends of the opposite sex. There are certain conversation topics you should stay away from, but it's really not that hard to do that. At least not for us.|||I don't really tell people what my MBTI is because the few people I've told have mostly told me in response that no one cares. Why try to tell someone about something they don't care about? In most...|||Hm. Didn't know that. Thanks for sharing.|||What the hell is she saying? You can be a shy extrovert? I've never met a shy extrovert or outgoing introvert. For someone who has supposedly studied and/or spent a lot of time thinking about...|||You see PerC asking if you want to meet up with other members, and you disdainfully say uh, no... Then you see links to the type forums inviting you to chat with them, and you say with a confused...|||Having an INTJ personality is absolutely not the same thing as having Asperger's. Not by a long shot. I may have some form of autism, but it is not related to my personality type in any way.|||Try having a deep, meaningful conversation about something. Be prepared for the chance that you will have to lead the conversation, as the INTJ will probably not open up you fast enough to do much of...|||I was insecure about my girlfriend at first. But luckily for me, she kept assuring me that she wanted to be with me until I finally learned beyond a shadow of a doubt that she did in fact love me.|||I have a voracious sexual appetite. My girlfriend and I do it constantly when she is in town. I have never sent a picture of my junk to anyone, not even my girlfriend, and I don't intend to. It can...|||Full beard and mustache. I had to be clean shaven in high school due to dress code requirements, but my facial hair grew really fast, so I often had to shave 1-2 times per day to remain totally clean...|||Not in high school. I wasn't the best natural athlete, but I developed some skills in a few sports that never amounted to much. I played basketball in middle school and always felt a disconnect to my...|||For years I've been told that I look angry even when nothing is wrong.|||Understanding who I really am under my stoic (and at times ostensibly angry) exterior was huge for my girlfriend winning me over. It also helped that she could talk sports with me (I've found that...|||While guidelines like this one are never absolute, it is my experience that ESFP-INTJ doesn't work that well. Before I met my girlfriend (an ISTJ; but the J/P is about 50-50) I was talking to an ESFP...|||Has anyone ever lost a best friend due to circumstances out of your control? If so, how did you deal with it? Did your coping methods work?|||In my senior year of high school, I took a leadership class. Usually I was the first to offer my thoughts on the things we talked about. But that was mostly because no one else was willing to do...|||My girlfriend's place, my mind, my NFL team's football stadium, my place, the arcade in the student center at my university.|||Being a playa requires charm. INTJs do not have charm.|||ENFPs are supposedly our best match. However, I talked extensively with an ENFP, and we didn't really work. Now I have a serious girlfriend who is an ISTJ. I can't believe I'm saying this after...|||My best friend is a Perceiver. She's been rubbing off on me a lot. So maybe I'm developing some minor perceiver tendencies. If I am, I don't feel badly about them.|||Many times before, though not as much now. I just always said it is part of who I am.|||The closest I come to appreciating art is looking at real estate online and marveling at the houses made in the modern architectural style.|||Yeah, I'm awful at keeping in touch. I only moved away from home for college two weeks ago and it's already like my family is dead to me.|||I know we are INTJs, but an Internet crush? Seriously?|||I have a brother. He doesn't have much effect on who I am, because I never see him anymore since I started college two weeks ago and don't live at home.|||Not sure. Most people are just kinda there to me. You don't bother them, they don't bother you. You just go about your separate lives without much worry or thought about them. Then there are those...|||Totally do the same thing. I may not feel what someone is feeling, but I try to offer comfort by logically explaining why everything will be ok. I simply can't and don't do emotional support.|||I'm Christian. At least I believe in it. Haven't been doing the best job of actually following lately.|||No. I feel sorry for others not being able to understand me and thinking I'm creepy or scary because those actually give me a chance reap the benefits of having a very loyal friend.|||No. There are three INTJs I've known. 1 - my mother. She definitely isn't stupid. Bachelor's, master's, and JD. Thinks of ways to solve my own problems before I do sometimes. 2 - my former friend. He...|||Thinking back on childhood, I've always been an INTJ.|||It is very hard for me to be content with my achievements, but not because of what others are doing.

Also The Games that Changed the Game: The Evolution of the NFL in Seven Sundays and I...|||Never had a tattoo. Never considered it before, and now that I've spent my time typing this post thinking about it, I don't plan to get one either. Just don't see the point.|||Well I just watched a clip of that show with Larry David, and he does seem like an INTJ.|||Let me give you a couple things to consider.  1. INTJs may be the most forgetful personality type. There is so much going on inside our heads that we often forget something only seconds after we...|||I think I'd like to be an ESTP. One of my three best friends and my brother are ESTPs, and they are both highly entertaining. I'd like to get inside their minds for a bit.'
