I wouldn't say 'INTP's get bored really easily' is a particularly accurate statement. I get INCREDIBLY bored if I am set menial tasks or in an environment where I can't think about what I want to think about, but I can just sit somewhere for hours or go for long walks and be perfectly happy as long as I'm in an environment that allows me to get lost in thought.

I'm an INTP, and your voice, mannerism, and introspection have already sparked my interest. Even more so than your rather enjoyable appearance(Fe coming out). You're a feeler, but you actually think. That earns alot of respect from socially aware INTPs. I love it when feels consciously choose to think. Love, love, love it.

You have to give us INTPs props. It isn't that we don't know who we are. It's that we are so sure of who we are and what our purpose is, that we don't give a fuck about meaningless things like social status and how we are perceived. Our purpose and mission is almost always a conquest of truth. We are here to pursue that. So why would we care about our image? If you want to think we are losers in our heads, that's good. That way, you won't get in the way of our goals. So yes, we see that someone may see us and think we are dorky nerdy losers. But we don't care. Why? We see that these people who wear brand name clothes, always image conscious and pursuing titles and badges are insecure. It disgusts us. We laugh when these are the people who judge us. These people are the real losers, desparate for approval from everyone around them. We truly, truly, truly don't give a fuck. Truly. The others who tell you they don't give a fuck do give a fuck. They want you to see their image as not giving a fuck. But the INTP (and sometimes the INTJ), in our essence, we just don't give a fuck. If only others could know how liberating it is to be one of us.

Fu Mi Have to use this other account but I"ve bene on various MBTI online forums everyday for years and it becomes incredibly easy to discern INTP writing from INFP over time. INTPs aren't obsessed with being 'losers' and getting all indignant about how people perceive them and what their images are like... that's not in the domain of Ti. When you're around true INTPs enough and you notice their behavior you begin to recognize how they don't behave. INTPs in all living situations actually represent themselves in a remarkably similar manner: dom-Ti INTP writing is incredibly precise, grammatical and detached. INFP writing becomes obvious too.

Because we assume that people are mostly wrong unless they have water tight reasoning to back up their point, and most people fail to back up their ideas to the standards of an INTP. If we are proven wrong by evidence or reason, we usually change our minds pretty quickly. We don't place emotional value on most ideas, so it's easy to let them go if they aren't good.

​@@Midnight_Rider96 As an INTP I think there's always wiggle room. I can remember a few times where I could not deny the argument given to me by a friend but I would simply say "I cant argue against you, I just cannot see why I would agree." It acknowledges the limitation in my knowledge without acquiescing to the counter point. INTP includes Si as tertiary in our stack. We do have a sense of self, a sense that I believe may be missing from other personality types. I see who I am as being a continuation of who I was. The ideas and viewpoints I once held hold some sway as I must admit they once held meaning even if they do not now. Growth requires remembrance, not termination. I must admit my faults as I must admit that sometimes there are "truths" held by others which may be incompatible with my self. Note that this view comes from someone who has challenged their views many a time and found them wanting. I'm not using this as an excuse to hold contradictory or irrational views. Simply, instead, to note that even the most "rational" views may not seem correct even if I cannot deny them. The ability to cope with ambiguity is something that comes with age to an INTP. And it is not a lesson that comes lightly.

I think INTP's do secretly value how others perceive them, but because they suck at influencing how others perceive them because of their poor Fe, sometimes just take the easy route and pretend they really do not care in any way, while as their 4th function, it is the function types aremost insecure about. I used to tell myself I did not care, and neither do I act like someone who really cares that much ( I often can not help to say something true even when it works in my disadvantage), but STILL some part of me does care that apparently being true and honest is not valued in an Fe kind of way by all people.

Great video, you put the finger on a lot of areas that I've identified in my relations to INFJs, in fact I have several INFJ friends and we connect in a great way. The social part is what mainly differs for us, I feel as they are more aware of what is okay to say/do. I value their imagination and their grasp of metaphors. (I am an INTP)

INJ's are very fascinating people, but this concept of placing people on different social levels based on subjective view of what a person values is very interesting (and annoying). Yes, I can understand the whole thing about focusing on the wrong thing; that Ti-dominance can get me stuck in a loop. Also, don't overestimate the INTP's abilities on Fe. INFJ is way better at Fe than INTP, just like INTP is way better at Ti than an INFJ.

There's more to listening than just.. listening. The information needs to be more than just listened to, but then comprehended... assimilated. I find that INFP's often have great problems with "phase 2" of listening, especially on rather technical matters. However, when it comes to less cerebral sorts of discussion maybe the INFP generally listens and assimilates information better, especially in matters than involve a lot of sympathy and empathy. My INFP gf sucks though so I'm biased and think they are useless listeners. =P

Not sure we get 'bored' all that easy. Or well at least for me, It's just that I have specific interests that I don't mind talking about / working for extended amounts of time. I do however have trouble staying focused if its something I have no interest in though, which can make me seem aloof or disrespectful. But that's in fact the last thing I'd want someone to think, so if that happens it's because I'm drained and can't force myself to invest the energy into things of non-interest for myself anymore. Also just to note, if an INTP seems uninterested (lacking Fe or something) don't be to quick to think they aren't actually interested. We could just be up in our heads really taking in what you're saying at times too. PS: Pizza fo lyfe

My sister is INFJ as well, even thought I was INFJ/INFP for a while (I'm a visual artist so stereotypes are hard to ignore) lol INTP's can have some crazy Fe bursts at times when serious emotional things come up. Can take a while to wind down from that too. Least for me personally. You're absolutely right though, I do get extremely bored around people I can't share activities and intriguing convos with. Can't speak for all INTP but for myself Fe can be intimidating for me to use even though I really want to at times. Can't control it well at all.

My sister is an intp and I am an infj. I understand that she sometimes gets lost in thought and she doesn't intentionally hurt me when she forgets about me, but it's hard not to feel wounded, when she kind of flits around in a dream world (I can relate) and doesn't talk to me for months on end. When we actually get together it feels like we just bounce off each other, like we are one mind.

I generally think INFJs are pretty great but there are often moments where I have to let them know, they are free to feel and think what they do about my life or how I interact with the world, but that I don't have to change just because they "deem" something to change based on their standards, like you said all you can do is just tell us and leave it at that with no expectations.

I thought it would be over soon so I paused half way through, I was happy it was only half way through. loved everything but the nails, was too jolting and opposting a color for your stunning natural beauty. I know nails sometimes dont match for women, cant do them for every outfit I suppose, the message was most important. My mate is DEF a risk taker, scary on some of the things they seek, which are totally not good. They are a mix of not caring what others think, and caring what others think, mostly not. But when they get bored, they do turn more open to suggestion from dangerous "friends" mean, and cranky. Im mean, but I dont tolerate the slightest game playing or absorption from another for long. So run less risk of getting into much trouble, or situations which are not efficient to living a healthy fun lifestyle, you can't have fun, if you dont have health. And its not healthy to seek fun, novely, constantly, you begin to treat people like a TV channel - you want to flip. I do like there humor and intelligence, they run around far less than the other types.

I think INTP seeks a Ti companion in any person. So any type with Ti is potentially great with us. In case of INFJ, there are some that more towards Fe, some who kinda disappointed in Fe and going for Ti growth. Still I'd prefer Fe over Te, because "shut up", or "you might hurt his/her feelings" are two different ways to ask us to tune down a bit, first one is actually would provoke us to speak more.

I’m an INTP and I have a lot of ambition. I remember having a friend once and through time we clicked so we started planning with our ideas but eventually he kind of stopped wanting to pursue these goals. I haven’t spoken to him much ever since being that we now have nothing in common or have anything to talk about except small talk which I avoid.

About the Si in INTP - I'm INTP and I eat super healthy and exercise a lot. That's something i always did and will probably keep that up for the rest of my life. (And it's not like my parents were really about healthy food, just came naturally out of me) Tho i do know a few INTPs and not everyone is like this.

I have an INTP close friend,& i've been learning to accept her values and logic.It's a little hard,though,because after so much effort that i've put in in our friendship,she still prefers the kind of friend that's not trying to help her(or solving her problems) in any way.Maybe she doesn't like how much i care about her when honestly,she can't be bothered.😌

As an INTP, INFJ women are the only women I relate to besides INTP women.

Ti and Fe means these two types can help each other. Fe is does have more social value if you believe in social norms. Ti has more potential to radically change social norms because it has more ability to break norms in search of truth and novelty regardless of consequence

That was an excellent commentary on the INFJ and "E"NTP relationship. The person you speak of in the video sounds like they have the NTP. But an INTP does not impose our worldview. The ENTP does, we could care less if you see our view. At 10:11 "they got mean" wouldn't happen with most INTPs. We would only say something about your abilities if you ask. At 10:58, Let us be? No, we NEED to hear why you disagree with us so we can analyze how we calculated incorrectly. INTP...Out! u ask.

make a video on HOW TO influence a person to tell you their personality type - so we can watch your HOW TO DEAL WITH videos ;)

As an INTP I intuitively know people's boundaries my Fe is very strong so I would know when to stop than the typical INTP which stay in Ti and Ne although I love my Ne I'm never bored it's well developed as my Ti is too .

It's actually very common for male INFJs to find themselves relying upon Introverted Thinking, falling out of preference with Extroverted Feeling, and coming off as and appearing to be an INTP. Michael Pierce is a great example of an INFJ that many would assume to be an INTP. Another great example is Jung himself, an INFJ who claims to not have a strong feeling side at all. With the mutual suppression of sensation in both types, it comes down to understanding, in great detail, Ni/Se and Ne/Si. I am an INTP that has always been fully confident that I'm an INTP because it's very clear to me how I extrovert intuition and introvert sensation

and not paying full attention to the question ... Ne/Si.... soooo the opposite would be Ni/Se... 😋

goals? The only time I here that word is when my wife (infj) mentions it, which is often, or more than frequent, possibly obsessively. hahaha She wont admit it, but she trusts me, that when the goals she sets for herself fall through, I'll be there to validate her experience and comfort her. I call this the butterfly complex. It's common among nfs in general and nts are used to it.

INTPs cast a lot of pearls before swine...other types are basically 'swine' who do not understand INTPs.

nice thing about INFJ they have the tendency to skip the "friend" zone by nature

Now thank fuck for clarifying that I'm an INTP and there is this attraction between Internal Answerers and Internal Rotaters . If you want us then you gotta experiment, learn and help us entirely I'm going to give INFJ second thought thank you so much. INTP are capable of raw diversity. It's extremely scary for us but we are not afraid blending.

I know you are a person who likes to self intensify that's what all INFJ's or what I call Mind Intensifiers do in some way or another as a passion of theirs and I think the reason for all that would possibly be because of the flicking motion in your thinking perhaps? As commical as it was and it was a 2 part response the first part being obviously the joke but the 2nd being a more serious kinda metaphysical question and sorry I always have this notion in my head that everyone knows how to use external accuracy brain functions and internal accuracy brain functions too in the past and in the future diversifying levels and metaphysics,etc fun stuff. anyways do you at all in your mind find yourself flicking information in anyway or like rotating it kinda like mechanical energy in a cogwheel which is a metaphysical conclusion ironnically?

"Deal with" has a negative connotation. Why not just say 'understand'. As an INTP there are plenty of types I could rail against but I know that all types and functions have their good/bad sides and at the end of the day there isn't even good or bad it's just variation

you're right, I was not in the best state when I was creating the titles...would name them differently now...the intent was positive though, I hope it gets across

Curious, would not using perspectives mean that you look at many angles in achieving a goal, than say changing the goal itself. Unless the perspectives give you the impression that the original goal is not achievable. Personally, I was a why child, had to pull everything apart to see how it worked and then put it back together. To get into the thoughts of other people, a lot of the time the work people do shows how focused they are in their work. Again with perspectives you can adjust the method used as you gain more knowledge and experience around the particular problem that must be solved to achieve the goal. Getting caught up in the head space of working through things mentally to find the optimal pattern for the solution. Or realising that there are holes in your knowledge that need to be filled so going out to learn and find this knowledge. And doing this without pissing people off. Anyway my two cents around those thoughts. Is not the internet a god send for INFJs.

Change your goal because a method doesn t work? To me that is lack of creativity. Change your goals because a method doesn t work could also be flexibility. I only do that of I run out of methods. Intp is finding new possibilties.

INFJs are great! My best friend is one. I'd like to know more about the goal / method idea. It feels very familiar. I relate to the goal-oriented side (used to be like a dog with a bone at times, thankfully now more mature) are you able to give any more info on how "method" work for INFJs? oh, im an intp.

+INFJ:BelowtheRadar-AbovetheSystem Have you made that video? (Came in from Google, haven't viewed your other videos yet) I'm having a hard time of understanding why you would change a goal when it can be achieved by changing methodology. Isn't that the idea behind going after what you want? And yep, I'm INTP. Also, going forward in your video to around 13:35 you talk about the tertiary function of INFJs leading to a condition where INFJ thoughts can change very erratically, being unable to determine where you stand, etc. But doesn't that contradict the idea of having a strict or set methodology that is followed? I guess my question is: how does a variable thought process or changing belief structure affect the INFJ preference for methodology over goals? Lemme know if that's not clear, and I'll see if I can better phrase my point.

More INTP's here than INFJ''s, hahahah.

You actually made a vid like this for every possible type/ optimal communications? Damn, you Ni users are scarily thorough/ always do things propely O.O Changing the goal to stick to the methods tho... It seems counterintuitive, almost "wrong" (note the brackets), I kinda can't relate to it. Like, with an INTJ I can see their method is different than mine (spot patterns, look at data to work out details vs. my look at data, try to put it all together to spot pattern) but still kinda see how it produces results. (You just broadened my horizon so thanks) I suppose it's more useful in social reformer contexts than sciency ones, I guess "methods" in your case would be ethically charged things and you understandeably can't change those without changing what the whole enterprise is about in the way that a peaceful protest that isn't peaceful no longer makes it a peaceful protest/ defeats the point of it. As in INTP myself it's kinda interesting to see this from a whole different/ outside perspective from a perspective that's kinda far away from my own but I do think this general track of "Don't assume we want the same things as you and just can't get them" (though really that would apply to all types) and "Just try explaining to us what your situation is and what you don't like". I don't think our Si makes us all that traditional or health-inclined (often a problem with the functions is that you can only find descriptions of what they're like for high-end users) Most INTPs are not attached to tradition in any way/ too independent for that (I think we're even the type least likely to be religious which is a tradition-ish thing), it kinda takes a different form of liking a more vague sense of familiarity/nostalgia especially when stressed. It's how many IXTPs memorize/have extenside knowledge of certain book/Tv shows/ general geek stuff and why we often like to rewatch movies we've already seen - It used to baffle me that you can have a favorite show you're very involved in but not have watched it in a long time, then I found out it's an Si thing. It can also present as attachment to places and things (computer, car, favorite pen...) which can sometimes seem surprising because we rationally know we can just replace the damn pen. Also I would not advise making very sure not to come off as babysitterish because even when you're absolutely correct, you might be confronted with a token resistance (as many NTs want to be self-sufficient and resent intrusion) unfortunately they might misjudge/ fail to notice that you might take this personally especially if they don't know you very well yet/ that you're coming from a place of wanting to make everything better for everyone. That last bit about joining in when someone's having an enthusiastic geekout (as long as you genuinely resonate with it) is definitely something that could make someone quickly find a way into my heart, I mean everyone (not just INTPs) wants to talk to people who share their passions/ shared passions are one of the most common ways that friendships form. But even the two moments in my life so far where I realized that I seriously loved someone romantically have both involved something like this.

Cool story, bra. /:

Sometimes I'll push people into debates just to dissect their way of thinking, even if they get frustrated. With NFJ's though, it's like poking a rattlesnake.

I have a question about INTPs... I think INFJs and INTPs have an ability to see "what really matters" and tend to want to not do what is popular just because it's popular. We act out of deeper meanings which I like about the two types. But why do INTPs seem to "hate" on other people's opinions? Like read the comments below mine.. the thread of INTPs comments off the last comment. They almost are seeking for people to disagree with them so they can sort of feel superior like "I don't give an F*" and you do so you're the one who has to suffer haha. Why do they almost find joy out of the suffering of others? I know they don't truly want others to suffer but when it's with someone who doesn't meet them eye to eye they get pretty mean.

@GaryM1967

6 жыл бұрын

Those are fair criticisms. I have to fight that tendency a lot. It's not really about someone else suffering, it's simply that we take emotion out of any debate. We work on facts only, and we are actually very happy if someone proves us wrong and we can add to our list of truths uncovered. We tend to find emotional responses annoying and unnecessary. One thing that has modified my behaviour somewhat is finding the truth in the bible, and being more humble.

INFJs benefit INTPs in a Socionics asymmetrical beneficiary relationship. Where the INFJ's Fe parents the INTP's inferior Fe. I'm an INTP that benefits from alot of INFJ life coaches such as Thais Gibson, Ross Rosenberg, and numerous others. INTPs and ENFJs form a Socionics pedagogue relationship where they learn from each other equally. But INFJs benefit INTPs without it being reciprocal. (ISFPs benefit INFJs.)

The only time you're allowed to be stupid with an INTP ... Is if you've previously proven that its just an act and you are actually capable of being competent.

one of my best friends is an INTP.

actually the compatibility is 70% 😭

Why not call this "Understanding the INTP" instead.... or maybe "Creating Harmony with your INTP"

I think infjs are too stubborn for intps. Introverted types in general tend to be a bit stubborn, so combining them will require effort to actively adapt for either one. An enfj suits the intp far better because they're more adaptable towards the Ti logic that rules the intp. Enfjs love calm logic and intps usually like the warmth of the enfj. The infj lacks that warmth in comparison and will ride too much with their Ni , a function which intps generally not value.

Sophie White some of them can come off as very difficult and aromantic types, but it sounds like you got with an unhealthy one.

Healthy INTPs want to make the world a better place, be it for the sake of the world or for the ones they deeply care about.
