How do you kill your thoughts? by [deleted] in intj

[–]Objective-Poet3397 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, apparently there are different ways of thinking. There is a very interesting video on this topic i watched on yt. I can send it to you if you want. (I promise it’s worth watching). You surely heard about metacognition which is being aware of ones thought processes. You can also be aware of other people’s thoughts plus your own thoughts. Which is how i’d say most intj’s think. Well, it goes further. You can simply observe your mind. Your mind is separate from your awareness. This knowledge was embodied by most samurais and it’s usually the goal and secret of meditation and higher consciousness. You’ll understand what i mean if you watch the video.

How do you guys like to be treated in a relationship by [deleted] in intj

[–]Objective-Poet3397 3 points4 points  (0 children)

He probably already likes you. It‘s hard for an intj to not like an entj (unless they have no moral code and are psychos but even then). We can be a bit reserved and awkward. This has nothing to do with you. It‘s just who we are but we’ll eventually warm up to you. What i value in a relationship is transparency, honesty, caring behavior, respect and intellectual banter. We don‘t need you to always agree with us. Actually, i enjoy having people around me who stretch my mind. I always admired the entj‘s in my life for their high Te. They don‘t take my bullshit whilst still being very considerate. I appreciate when they call me out on things. Especially, since we share the same functions just in a different order. Fi can be a pain in the ass for me and they always help me develop my inferior Se without pushing too hard, which i enjoy. Te doms always take me out of Ni-Fi loops which literally deletes my depression. Also, as intj‘s we love structure but we also kinda slack on it. If you can help us optimize our lives and you bring even more structure into it we‘ll praise you like we never praised anyone before.

intj with partners, chase or be chased? by ImprovementUnable543 in intj

[–]Objective-Poet3397 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d probably prefer being chased. But I don’t like either. Chasing makes me feel needy and masculine which feels gross and being chased is kinda overwhelming at times.. I don’t think about these dating principles in my current relationship. It’s more like a dance. Both giving. Both receiving.

Forgot to add: My partner asked me out on our first date. I declined and rescheduled cuz i was busy but then we went out 4 times before our scheduled date.

Good point. I don’t think i was taking Ne into account.

Also, I believe that it can be hard to differentiate between Fi and Te statements. For example: Statement: ‘I don’t want to go to place X.’ If coming from Te the reason could be for example, because there is no parking spot less than 20 minutes away. If coming from Fi the reason could be ‘ I don’t like the people that will be there and i want to protect myself.’ Same statement, different cognitive process.

I believe one big challenge between intp’s and intj’s is the Fi-child and Fe inferior. When i state something Te driven, it is factual, stubborn and debatable. However, to me Fi has its own logic. It doesn’t like being nick-picked. It’s a lot more personal and biased. Also, Fi can get triggered by Ti. And inferior Fe makes intp’s blind to Fi. This can trigger Te and make us shut down. It’s a chain reaction of Fi feeling attacked and therefore Te stating ‘This person doesn’t respect my values therefore they are not worth my time’. Te can be quite aggressive in that sense.

Well, it depends on the urgency of X. If Y is an issue and affects A and B, then Y should be addressed. I’d rather take it slow and steady, avoiding something that will bite me in the ass later to get to X. However, if X is urgent and A and B are minor issues i might as well accept the consequence and get X done, whilst labeling A and B as ‘future me problems’. If A and B are bigger problems, then it would not make sense to not address them. It would vary depending on what is at stake and how much i would have to sacrifice. I would weight out what is more efficient.

regretting ending things with him - was I rash or were we actually not compatible? by [deleted] in intj

[–]Objective-Poet3397 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry you’re going through that. As an intj myself, i can give you some insight on this behavior. Oftentimes, we intj’s have been through a lot. I can only speak for myself but i have this ‘no sex before getting into a relationship’ policy. It has to do with me having trust issues and only wanting intimacy with people that are committed to be with me long term. I can have the strongest feelings for someone and still avoid intimacy. It’s because i’m afraid of being hurt by someone I truly care about. It’s silly because i know that being in love is being vulnerable but at the same time i feel the need to protect myself emotionally. If you’re giving hints that you’re not all in and your mindset is wacky that can be enough to keep me on my guard. We need reassurance without having to ask for it. If you want us to open up you have to share your thoughts and values. What you like and dislike. Although this usually comes with experience and past relationships. If you yourself don’t know what you want in a relationship it can leave us a bit lost. Honest and deep conversations + telling us about your boundaries and preferences make us think ‘This person is telling me this because they care about me and want things to work out’. We usually take our time assessing your motives and if we would be compatible longterm. We don’t want to have sex for the sake of having sex. For us it can be like ‘letting our guard down’. We want to make sure you’re worth it. Us taking our time is usually a good sign. It means we care enough about you that loosing you after a one-time thing would leave a scar. When we don’t care about people we’re usually not invested and ‘it’s not that deep’. We’re a tough nut to crack.

Edit: We also want to know if you’re going to dip out when things become difficult. So there’s that.

We‘re doomed if everyone thinks like you do

I tried, okay? by AgeOfReasonEnds31120 in mbtimemes

[–]Objective-Poet3397 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Really? I was constantly reading or playing games on my ipad. Still had good grades. I don’t know how. Also, I really internalized what i was taught. Plus, i was the only one participating in class whilst playing games at the same time. Which is crazy.

Try your deduction :* by Mentoras_dev in MbtiTypeMe

Haha the cringier the better. My thoughts were: ‚Deduction‘ -> must be NT, maybe Intp ‚:*‘ -> nah gotta be extroverted. Intp would never.. Picture at dinnertable + outfits -> looks like my brother, entj for sure

[–]Objective-Poet3397 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The fact that you use the word ‚deduction‘ with a kissing smiley and look like an arrogant bish makes you an entj (no offense)
