EDIT (11/16/2011): Sorry for the false info, everyone. Turns out I am an INTJ with ADHD. Hopefully INTPs can still relate! O HAI. Just a stupid little monologue about my life as an INTP (Myers-Briggs) female, which is supposedly an extremely rare phenomena. I hear that 1% of the entire population is an INTP and even less than that are women. So, as you can imagine, I don’t connect with a whole lot of human beings. That being said, I would dearly enjoy connecting with YOUUU if you happen to come across this disaster of a video and are kind enough to reply. Please send me some blogs about yourself and let me know what you think of my analysis of a typical INTP. 🙂
INTP guy here. Thanks for making this video and I understand to some extent what you are going through. It must be harder being a girl. When I watch your video, I can see you thinking and processing when u make small pauses or look around the room. When I see you doing that, it really makes you seem alive, that you arent just some shell that stares into empty space and then speaks whatever pops into your mind. That there is a person inside. Sorry if it sounds weird, but you get my point :p
Dear Shadoessa, What do you think of my theory that was recently published? If you go to google image and type: “Augustus, cameo, capricorn”, you will see an oval cameo of a nude muscle-man (Augustus Caesar whose favorite sign was Capricorn). I think Michelangelo used this figure as the basic model for his Adam in his “Creation of Adam”. He elevated the diagonal arm and closed the gap between the legs. He invented the right arm. I value your comments. Thank you.
not INTJ or INTP.. you are an ISFJ
Merry Christmas and have a nice new year.
Hello Shadoessa, you have been read as Xai’nyy by the Pod’Lair team using the Five Gears of Mojo Reading. For further details watch this PSA:

The Typology methods that you have been trying to use to understand yourself do not work, and cannot capture the complexity of your innate nature. You have been given an unprecedented opportunity to learn about the phenomenon of Cognitive Configuration as it exists in nature.
It could be because I am an Enneagram Type 4, which is very rare for INTJs. Type 4s are typically associated with INFJs and ENFPs. Probably why so many people think I am a mistyped NF.
1% of INTJ! J not P………..J 🙂
INTJs are not emotionally absent and are perfectly capable of loving just like any other Type. Clearly you have never been in love.
Are you sure you are an INTJ if you were dependent on this guy? Really? Forget him. We only need our thoughts of world domination to sustain us. I am INTJ.
You might really get a kick out of watching the girl on “Personality Types ESFP”.
Do you think Joe Biden’s demeanor was immature and unprofessional during his debate with Ryan?
Ah, that’s good; I’m sure you made the right decision, then. You need to heed your emotions and stay in touch with what it is that’s important to you and emotionally fulfilling, not just what is intellectually stimulating, practical or efficacious — NTs are humans, too. It’s made my life a bit better, at least.
We were both dependent. He clung to me and I couldn’t let him go because I thought he would never come back. Eventually I had to break it off and let him discover things on his own. We’re best friends, though, and I love him. I think he’ll come back to me when he’s ready. (But yes, I agree. This relationship did help me realize how important emotional intimacy is.)
That’s a shame. Now, who was the dependent one? Was it really the emotional ties which were unhealthy? Are you sure you didn’t just push him away because the emotions were outside of your comfort zone? One thing many NTs need to learn to accept is the validity of feelings and value of emotional intimacy in interpersonal relationships. (Not that I know one way or the other if it was the right move, but it’s something worth thinking about.)
I have struggled with loneliness my whole life. I have only met one person that appreciates me for me, and I recently broke up with him because of emotional dependency. I hope to get him back someday. It is rare to find people who take time to understand and appreciate NTs.
I’ve felt alienated from people quite often and feeling lonely like that really can be difficult sometimes, but I’m an INTP male and not nearly as rare as an INTJ female, so maybe it’s not quite so bad for me. You come across as strong, intelligent and quite attractive, so I’m sure you could find people who can appreciate you for who you really are.
I am a J because I am more comfortable with making decisions than keeping things open. I will work on something I started until it’s finished. Hope that helps! 🙂
You misunderstand. It’s an attempt to understand one’s preference, their preferred way of thinking. It’s like trying new cheeses to learn which cheese you like more. When you finally figure your preference of cheese, it doesn’t limit you to only that type of cheese.
If you lookup INTJ Revolution on Facebook theres a whole group of people. Another one on FB with thosands of members.
You do mention youre not insterested in other peoples relationships which is a lot more NT than NF.
Pretty gorgeous.
INTP are often creative, I think, and if so, then it is a good thing. What is the downside with beeing an INTP ? Perhaps it is just that they are so few.
Lively INTP eyes.
Yea right. All INTPs do is point out grammatical errors
Dear Shadoessa, Are you sure you are —j and not a —p? J’s like deadlines and getting things done and then move on to the next thing. P’s (like myself) have trouble with closure. I have been working on the same painting since 1976!!! I am ashamed and embarrassed about it. Occasionally I am published but after hundreds of re-writes. In any case, I wish you all the best.
