I don't think I've ever seen that before. Usually type 1 is seen as more of a Te thing.   Also, why is type...|||Well, if I snub someone who has any degree of influence over others, they could potentially get me fired or turn my friends against me. There's also a possibility that they could uncover dirt on me...|||Well, yeah, but if you're that rude to them directly, they might cause trouble for you.   Of course, if you know the person isn't a threat to you... then yes, you can do whatever you want to them....|||Here's what I do, starting from least severe to most extreme methods:  1. Make excuses to avoid hanging out with them or talking to them.   Most people will pick up on this eventually, if you go...|||I do think ISFPs can be similar to INFJs, though I don't think it's IQ-related. I think it's just because they're both IxFx types that use Ni/Se over Si/Ne.   I often find ISFPs more relatable in...|||Why did you quote me? Why do you have to single me out?   Other people are far more hostile to your argument than I have been, and I was just trying to settle things with someone else. Now I have...|||Wow, your main three points are the same as my Mom's...  She's also a Sagittarius Sun, Libra Rising, Aquarius Moon.|||Well, yeah, of course a male ISFJ isn't going to be very feminine...  But anyway, I don't see how the level of accuracy/precision about the nature of types and taking into account all these...|||I was half-joking because I don't take the concept of a type being feminine very seriously to begin with.  But I do know that I wouldn't be very good at a lot of the stereotypically feminine/maid...|||I would think ISFJ.  An INFJ would be too spaced out and daydream too much to be a great housekeeper or cook.|||What would they LOOK like? Probably kind of like this:  http://www.osanimi.org/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/witchdoctor1.jpg|||Hi! Look at this cute macramé model of a Sierpinski triangle I just made. Oh, and what do you think of these beautiful landscape photos? I shot them with a 35mm lens.  They could do other things,...|||Well, it seems that we mostly have a philosophical disagreement here.  I think that your type is about those natural tendencies, and not about results or objective/measurable categories. I'm more...|||Duncan, A. (2014).

That part is typical of NJs in general, AFAIK.  But caring about the good of everyone, rather than just...|||Out of those four?  ISFJ.  You do seem fairly relatable in terms of judgment, now that I've seen the Fe, but you seem more Si/Ne.  Also, you seem to have good Thinking on top of that.|||I have to admit, I never thought I'd see so many INTJs talking about this stuff. I always thought they were so invested in the objectivity/rationality thing that they'd never admit to an interest in...|||Everything you said made sense, I think. Although...    I'm pretty sure Mercury (ruler of Gemini/Virgo) is in my 11th house, not my 5th house.

I was born via C-section, so I'm sure the time is...|||I feel like I should point out that that's actually not what the theory suggests. Your type doesn't just change because you use your brain differently.  It's not about behavior or conscious...|||militantsparrow  I can see why you thought you were an INFJ now... there's actually a lot of Fe in here. In fact, I'm now fairly certain you're an FJ of some stripe.  Some of your responses make...|||Actually, yes. There are a few questionnaires stickied in this subforum as a way of drawing these things out when you aren't sure what to say. Choose one of these three: ...|||I actually do relate to the Ti guy in the video a little bit... particularly when I'm trying to avoid admitting guilt for something. Perhaps not to that literal extreme, but I'm aware of that as a...|||That sounds more like Te to me. I wouldn't rule out Ti entirely, but right now I'm seeing Te mostly.|||In this dialogue, Socrates is Ti while Euthyphro is Te. This how Te looks to Ti.  The Internet Classics Archive | Euthyphro by Plato  On the other hand, in this video, you see how Ti looks to Te....|||Keirsey temperaments really aren't a good way of typing yourself, especially if you're an INxJ.  A lot of NFs are more like stereotypical NTs, and a lot of NTs are more like stereotypical NFs.  ...|||Good question.

He does seem to understand how I think fairly...|||I have a pretty good idea what kind of person you think I am, and I know I can come off that way.   They shared with me by choice and felt my words resonated with them.  EDIT: Sorry if I seemed a...|||I can tell you what it is, actually:  Decans or Decanates - Planet Rulers  Basically, it divides each 30 degree sign into 10 degrees. The first ten degrees of a sign are most strongly ruled by...|||Isn't that the definition of INTP to start with? I kind of assumed that TiNe and INTP were basically interchangeable terms.  That's technically true, but it's a little like saying that the best way...|||INFJ.   I try to avoid discomfort, but I don't go out of my way to make myself comfortable either.

That's one thing I hate about threads like this... it seems like someone always replies to my subject by the...|||Actually, most of the users I've seen who refuse to accept friend requests and try to keep their friend list empty are INTJs.  It seems to be some sort of pride/independence thing with them.|||I think AIM and Yahoo should be left in place, because I still use those occasionally.

Even back when he thought he was one, I didn't see it. I'd consider ISTP before INTP. He really doesn't seem like an Si/Ne user to me, if I'm being honest. As far...|||Right. I'm not saying that people shouldn't connect to the groups they find themselves joining. I'm just saying that you should be aware of what you believe and what your nature is apart from that. ...|||Actually, I'm not saying INTJs should do that at all.
