Why do I find Cho in the mentalist extremely attractive?

i love that show roud:

because Cho is confident, but not showy, because he's intelligent and knows how to use this intelligence, cool, in control, successful - but all the while, he looks so damn huggable! :laughing:


also:
i have a rather considerable crush on Lisbon (Robin Tunney). not only physically, but...it is weird, because she's the opposite of what i usually like, she's rule and convention-bound, all about success...an STJ i think (which i generally don't naturally take to)


i guess the show has this effect on people. why Van Pelt likes Rigsby, i will never know...:bored:

This, plus he doesn't take himself so seriously he can't laugh or smirk at things. He's no nonsense but has a heart, anyone can be attracted to that. They're qualities that are very wonderful when mixed; they show a developed, matured character. Though that isn't to say he's without his flaws.

Maybe this introverted assurance? Something like that...

Maybe you like deadpan snarkers.

Cho is ISTP by the way.

Yeah, Lisbon is either ESTJ, or ESFJ. The rest of the lot:

Jane- ENTP (possibly INFJ)
Rigsby- ESTP
Van Pelt- INFJ
Minelli- ESTJ
Hightower- ENTJ

Haha I love the whole ENTP Vs INFJ for Jane, they're two really different and yet really similar types! I'd say ENTP though, INFJs are too cute.

That's because they're both N-dominant, and both have the same core functions (Ti/Fe). Patrick Jane's Ti and Fe are essentially equal; he has a very strong understading of uther people's emotions and tends to make deductive leaps from them. The question for him is whether his dominant function is Ni, or Ne.

He seems to use Ne I think, I've experienced some of the weird ideas he has. INFJ sister doesn't think he's an INFJ because he's too calculating with certain things, which I agree with, more T than F.

Cho is probably an INFJ. INFJs and ENTPs are famous for their interesting dynamics.

Callie said:

INFJ ? How do you come to this conclusion. He looks so T!!!

Cold on the outside soft on the inside. He's superstitious. And appears superficially as an ISTP. I could see INTJ too. But he's good at reading people and for that reason he leads all the interviews. He secretly longs to do the right thing for the greater good. Like that one time he broke his promise to not help that black kid with freeing his gangster father.

Because the actor is sexy? I find him very attractive as well, but if you're talking about the character I have limited experience with watching the show.

I think he is also attractive. I guess personality wise with his blunt attitude and that he is straightforward when he wants to. Plus he looks good! :]
