There's a thread like this in the ESTJ forum, and I thought it would be beneficial here. It might help clear up some preconceived notions and stereotypes of INTJ's while also reducing some unnecessary threads.

So here, any type can ask a question. Any INTJ can answer.

But remember, we are people too. :mellow: We eat, sleep, and piss like everyone else.

So ask away!

Oh dear @MissJordan it's not hate coming from me it's WTF, why, and could they please stop and get a grip....mostly I don't even think about people like this....it's toxic to even start trying to anticipate what they will do next...avoidance is key. :wink:
I was referring to the NFs being hateful.

I don't know why, we're very nice people.

I'm in the middle of making a thread that'll prove it, too.

Funny that, since the type I probably come across most in real life among family and general people is ESFJ. However, these are also the sort of people not to sit around on forums, which probably explains their rarity here. Also, they don't exactly have trouble making friends.

Heh...apparently it is hard to give constructive feedback for some. It makes me wonder at how some people manage to function each day without just falling to pieces.
easy, they thrive in cultures where constructive criticism/feedback is not honored or encouraged and keeping the peace with pride and feelings is paramount. in this situation they will always be correct to demand you not criticize or you apologize for doing so.

God you INTJ are dangerous even when you're horny, or do you just sing?
I do have a bowler hat, some fake eyelashes, white pants shirt and braces. I haven't got a codpiece though. That would just be too much. It would perhaps disguise the fact that the pants give me the dreaded cameltoe though. Hmmmmmm

It doesn't relate to type.

I'd love to have someone who loved the same things I did, but I also try to be excited for someone's interests because it's what they're passionate about, too. And yes, I had a long shopping list for many years - and I do still have many, many preferences - but really it can all be boiled down to just a handful of deal-breakers - mutual interest (kind of obvious, but hey), similar religious beliefs, and general compatibility (also kind of obvious, but many people get caught up in the excitement and tend to forget about it, I think). There are a few others, but those are the big ones.
What about distance, no job, and low motivation?

Note that when the only difference is I/E, I is always above E; and when it's N/S, N is always above S.

Not at all surprising, but it's interesting that it's so clear cut.

@lirulin

How do you even get responses like this? http://personalitycafe.com/nfs-temperament-forum-dreamers/60124-nf-arrogance-3.html#post1449637

I read your posts and I see a sensible and reasonable post. But then people just snap at you and treat you like you just killed their firstborn child and ripped out their spleen. You should probably find an enchantress and get that curse removed. *nods*
I think that his response is better summed up as "shut up you hurt my feelings!!!1:crying:"

What about distance
I am quite peeved that INTJs have not invented a teleportation machine yet. C'mon, work faster, people! Team up with some ENTPs or something already!
