This topic surfaces often and it's always a fun one.
I don't see this as so much as an "opposites attract" idea, as trait opposition isn't quite night and day. ENTPs and INFJs are aligned in such a way that they play off of each other in such a perfect way. I openly admit it: I love INFJs, but cannot speak on behalf of all ENTPs.

Dominant is converse - Ne, Ni. Aux traits are crossed: Ti/Fe, Fe/Ti. Inferior is converse - Si/Se.

An INFJ is like me looking into my shadow world.

 

INFJ guys find me adorable.

 

I don't know. I am not aware of whether I was ever involved with an INFJ. I am married to an ISTJ.

 

I have a few INFJ friends, and they are the ones calling me adorable, haha.
I like their sense of humor, and I guess mainly their Fe. They can read people really well, and lastly, I can pull out random things to joke about, and they will go along with it effortlessly--it's adorably fun.

 

Random topic play-joking is much fun! How well do you bounce from one random topic to the next?

"One does not simply walk into INFJ. Its black gates are guarded with more than just Ni... there is Ne there that does not sleep. The great Ti is ever watchful. 'Tis a barren wasteland riddled with fire and ash. The very air you breathe is a poisonous fume."
-The way it was originally scripted

(I'm totally putting that at my profile quote)

That coin has two sides.
From an ENTP's POV, the silence that comes with an INFJ can be... overbearing. Once I understood exactly what it was, I found myself more tolerant, but it will always and forever be unsettling though the mind of a person who doesn't quite grasp the concept of "shut the fuck up". I am quite aware of the fact that my lack of experience in the "shutting the fuck up" department is equally as overbearing.
INFJs are understanding of ENTPs and actively listen/give feedback/support - but the ENTP must accept the fact that they are an INFJ's taskmaster. Every time I hear the phrase "hey... you wanna do me a favor" or "you wanna do me a BIG favor", I grumble and grab my keys.

May I borrow your quote? I like it. It adds the gloom, doom and despair that's totally lacking in my simple life. Makes it sound intimidating to talk to me when in reality all it takes is "hi."

I don't find them adorable. Interactions with them are fine but I get easily annoyed by the emotional self righteous indignation about everything. Haha no offense infj's, you are a good bunch.

 

I don't know, I don't find any paticular type to be adorable. I can find certain people to be adorable but I really doubt it has much to do with their type. Like if I were to say I found someone to be adorable and they turned out to be an INFP doesn't really mean I find INFPs adorable.

 

Because they're squishy on the inside, full of rage at the injustice of the world on the outside? Tasty.

 

There's also some weird chemical reaction that dictates that if you take two cray cray types (the INFJ on a crusade against the injustices of the world, the chaotic jokester ENTP) and throw them together and somehow the end result is both feel much less crazy and more in control of their lives. I could just be extrapolating from my own relationship with a grouchy INFJ with a Jesus complex though...

 

My ENTP likes to mess with me. I think the fact that I'm game is adorable to him. Until I'm not game anymore, and then when I get mad I'm not really mad because it's impossible to get, let alone stay, mad at him since I don't take him seriously either way. He likes to tell me I'm funny for instance, one of the funniest people he knows in fact, but that that isn't a compliment.

Sometimes when I'm not feeling attended to, I'll zone out. I don't really cling, I just walk away and get into solitary mode which I think he appreciates secretly. Maybe he finds it cute. Also I get nervous doing logic-related things, especially in front of people, things like figuring out how to move a seat back in a rental car. For this reason he'll make sure to stare at me and call my name out until I can't help but laugh and relax a little. It's like, semi-abusive? But also a weird relief. He breaks me out of myself, so perhaps he finds self-consciousness endearing because that's definitely what I am a lot of the time.

 

My ENTP gal friend called me that this morning because I was standing around in our sound studio eating while powdered donuts from a bag during a break.

I dunno. I don't think eating donuts is very adorable, so I suspect it was more than that.

 

it's some weir meet cute reaction between an ENTP and an INFJ, be it romantically or platonically. I recently started talking to an ENTP guy. He's incredibly self assured (cocky), lightening fast (waste no time to get me to text him), and won every argument (and I was not mad once). His expansive world view and sunny/positive outlook came thru even in his texts. There's this strange Ni/Ne mesh that I could sense sight unseen (I've yet met this guy). So he hasn't called me adorable yet but I bet it's only a matter of time. ;-)

 

I think it's because we like the fact that you'll listen to us no matter what we say. And also you don't say things unless it's something you really know about or are interested in, that's where we find our source of heated but controlled conversations.

 

I <3 you, you adorable ENTPs!! Every ENTP I have met never fails to offer good conversation and always make me laugh! :kitteh:

 

Probably because your type often comes across as very innocent and the auxiliary Fe adds some charm to your personality.

 

@melimo918

Don't feel special as an INFJ. Everyone is intriguing to the ENTP, because every single person is an impulsive decision away from gaining a new friend (the ENTP). It's those rudimentary people who need to live by a concise structure, and release information in bits of pieces, that ultimately fail to keep our interest anyway. If I "had a thing" for you INFJ's, it's definitely momentary..as I can't speak for the rest of these ENTP's.

Distance and "teeth pulling" keeps me rolling to my next stop, whether I'm defying gravity uphill or picking up speed on the way down.

Fu** all that "mystery creates intrigue" crap, some people take that so literally and forget to share their lives with people.

 

No experience with INFJs, but I agree with everything you said in principle. Keeping inner thoughts private is interesting for two weeks tops.

 

It's the whole serene on the outside manic on the inside. They also have the tendency to trip over things, which can be kinda cute.

Actually, kind of the opposite of ENTPs - manic on the outside, calculated on the inside. We balance each other out.

 

I trip over shit all the time and am pretty clumsy in general

 

IDK... Most of my friends have been INFJ. There is a strange attraction and yes, they are surprisingly easy to amuse. But so are really any IF type. I've made INFPs, ISFPs, ISFJs and INFJs laugh, but I think the IFJs most obviously. The lack of Fi probably bothers the IFPs, though.

 

We don't find them adorable. They are just the most likely type to let us handcuff them and let us have sex in our unicorn costume. It really is as simple as that! :kitteh:

 

 

I don't. I find INFJs fascinating and a bit exhausting. I tend to find ISFJs adorable, but only in fiction (I don't know any personally) so who knows. I honestly think INFJs are much too dramatic, intense, etc. to be called "adorable."

 

No, INFJs aren't adorable. The ones I've encountered are definitely nice and pleasant people, but their Fe drives me nuts. Their iNtuition means I can discuss the things I like to discuss which I don't often with most Sensors, but once you start talking you realise how differently things are processed.

The problem I have with INFJs is that most of them aren't very direct. They do the whole "cold shoulder" thing when they're annoyed at you, and get even more annoyed when you don't realise it because they take it as you don't care. I honestly suck at picking up on all these "Hmph, I'm angry at you but still going to be superficially nice yet slightly cold" vibes. To pick up these vibes I have to be uber-paranoid and constantly scanning for behaviour changes. I have more things to do than to worry about INFJs throwing a silent hissy fit.

There's a lot of stuff floating around about how INFJs compliment ENTPs in relationships. In an ideal relationship where two people are extremely well-balanced for their type and put lots of effort into their relationship to improve it and themselves, then yes it might work. But that works too with any two types. Too many INFJs I've come across are insecure and needy, or easily get offended. Even if I'm sorry, I can't do much about it if I don't know and if you don't tell me so I can figure out how to make it up.

F types are lovely people, but I think most don't speak the same language as I do, so co-existing can become very painful.

 

Thanks for the shout out. #notallINFJ's ... thanks! :tongue:

 

I don't find all infjs to be adorable sometimes I find them to be moody bitxhes, but sometimes I find them to be almost regal. The ones that attract me are the noble ones or the coy artistic or ... like a deep reflecting pool? Ones.

 

I've found that ENTP's are wonderful conversation partners, the constant bouncing from topic to topic and the depth reached is amazing. It's like the ENTP has the fuel and the INFJ brings the fire or maybe it's the other way around. I've talked with two ENTP's in my life that I know of and with both I imediately get sucked into deep conversation. There's a playful nature to them, with this wonderful mind on the inside.

 

Why would INFJs think that we find you adorable? It is not true. Some maybe... most of you not really.

 

I think the adjective used can very a lot, but in general there is some kind of magnetic draw to many of them, for many of us. There is a preponderance of evidence to support this.
