Admit it.

You caused it, didn't you? It was you who pushed the red button, you who unleashed the plague, you who stole the Ruby of Truth from the Casket of Eternity and inadvertently freed the Great Darkness imprisoned within. Nice going. Brilliant work, genius. Are you laughing evilly now?

Since you probably brought about the end of the world in the first place, this section is rather superfluous. Nevertheless, I offer it so that that we might better understand the survival habits of the insane INTJ Mastermind.

Yes, it's a bit of a trial being one. I read somewhere that INTJs make up only about 2% of the population. Add that to a Pisces sun sign and it's a bit like going through life carrying a bucket of wet sand. Sometimes.

Indeed, Try living and dying a few times.

I'm very attracted to INTJ's, but...I don't know, they can be so awkward when it comes to romance and emotions. Sometimes a little TOO introverted. Love 'em though.

It's not easy to be a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma.
But somebody has to do it.

What do you mean by awkward? I'm an INTJ myself, so I'm interested in knowing what you mean by that 🙂

What did you think of the character of John Nash as portrayed by Russell Crowe in "A Beautiful Mind?" After a few minutes, I suspected that Crowe was channeling an INTJ.

That's a great movie I should watch again. I just watched a clip to jog my memory, and he was described as "being born with two helpings of brain and half a helping of heart" I laughed at how relevant that was to the INTJ personality (or at least how they are perceived)!

It's the riddle and mystery that always intrigues. Very very fun to unwrap you types.

Achilles Heel isn't quite the right description.

Achilles Heel isn't quite the right description.

I can see what they mean, it is mine.

It may well have something to do with age, gender, and whatever else, life experiences.
That is, younger INTJ people may feel a greater need for a relationship and therefore have a
weakness for it but as one gets older, the need subsides substantially, because interests
are focused in other directions. Afterall, everyone is different.

As for me, I sometimes wonder whether I "may" be long for this world and think that it
wouldn't be fair to any woman for me to ask them to invest their time with me.

I wonder if INTJ contributes to extremely poor sleeping habits.

I don't even remember sleeping 8 hours at a time - At best I may sleep 2-4 or 4-6 hours a day
maximum. Sometimes it's split up, sometimes it's a straight through these time spans.

idk, just thought I'd throw that one out there.

Humor?

"INTJ: The outside contractor

INTJs are solid, competent personalities who may seem aloof and even arrogant, but who are typically highly skilled in any field which interests them. INTJs are confident in their skills and knowledge, self-assured, and imaginitive; their exceptional problem-solving skills make them ideal architects, auto mechanics, and tools of the evil empire. While it requires the driving will to conquer of an ENTJ to imagine the Death Star and the evil genius of an ENTP to invent its devastating weapons systems, the skill and technical prowess of the INTJ is what makes the whole thing work.

The INTJ sees life as a problem to be solved. For that reason, the INTJ is the person a company brings in from the outside to streamline production processes and identify redundant assets for termination. The INTJ's combination of analyticial problem-solving skills and complete and utter disregard for the morality or consequences of his actions also make him ideal for the job of hatchet man, CIA operative, and helpdesk operator.

RECREATION: INTJs are often baffled by the strange and incomprehensible recreational rituals of other people, such as going to parties, watching television, and having sex. Instead, they prefer to spend their leisure time installing twin missile launchers in their cars to deter tailgaters and playing chess with megalomaniac CEOs of the Tyrell corporation.

COMPATIBILITY: Silly person, INTJs don't have relationships! They may, however build their own friends.

Famous INTJs include J. F. Sebastian and Sgt. Apone."

I totally agree with this, I'm only 29 but I already have zero interest in dating. My main focus is my job & hobbies. I always look for things that annoy me about every potential partner, it's easier to get rid of them that way. Relationships are like a heavy baggage, I don't have the time or the interest to weigh myself down with all that.

Well, for example this personality type is prone to using logic in situations where their partner might prefer empathy or some kind of emotional response. I just feel like they have trouble relating to some of the emotional needs of others. Let me copy and paste something I read that sounds accurate:

"However, they do not usually see the need for frivolous affection or romance, feeling that their devotion should be evident. They are more focused on serving their partners with hard work and resourceful problem-solving than they are on showering them with attention.

INTJs' partners often find them difficult to read, and indeed they do not show emotion easily; they find the process of discussing emotions much too messy and disorganized. They enjoy solving difficult problems, but are often out of their depth when it comes to illogical, unpredictable personal issues."

I agree with "should be evident". I can't stand people who always ask "do you love me, do you love me?" It should be evident..I'm still here aren't I? Meaning, I love you. What's with the 20 questions now? LOL!

Well, when I was 29 I had the same feeling. Then, a couple of years later, my heart began to give
me trouble and the rest went down the historical drain.
There IS one little thing, though, as we age the body certainly gets older.
Some people may judge, but everyone is different. I just pushed myself waaaay too hard in the early
going and am now paying for it.
It's only been in recent years that I have come to learn that hard
work doesn't always necessarily pay off if you take it to the extreme. Now, that said,
I also have some other disabilities along with the heart problem that puts me in a very dangerous position, healthwise.
These compound problems put an extreme load on the mind and spirit. To counter this, I do whatever I have to do.
With that in mind, I sometimes think a relationship just couldn't handle what I must carry alone.

You just confirmed what I read on an article. I was reading about night owls, and they mentioned that short sleepers have wrong ideas about themselves, either maniac or of grandiosity. So, stop thinking about you in a special way may help you a little, and sleeping more may help you even more.

LOL what YOU just confirmed is that you are someone hiding behind a secondary dxp user account.

0_o ... what? I'm telling you, you need to sleep more because you have weird ideas. This is my first profile in these forums. I'm a INTJ by the way, and I have no time to create second accounts.

I thought you were an INTJ, all detached and such.

Ok, just to prove I'm not whoever you imagined:

This one mentions that they have irritable moods, I guess you just did that, also I noticed you have hidden a message, maybe a rant going on there. If you are a real INTJ,and as all INTJ's do, educate yourself with this ;D

A, your conceptual level of "intellectual" comprehension has been observed and is found "wanting".
I am quite aware of my own sleeping habits and the contributing medical factors as well as those medical risk factors associated with my seasoned professional high risk/high stress occupational history.
I am also keenly aware that these things have not come to full recognition in the legal, scientific and medical, let alone, academic communities. Not unlike many other issues, so as to set forth progressive validated civil and occupational rules and regulations, codes and standards of conduct into the governance of the people, for their own benefit and for the benefit and betterment of a progressive society, which has, unfortunately, chosen in favor of degression, which plays a substantial role in the fall of empires and civilizations.

Furthermore, you should re-read what you wrote and consider where you intellectually failed in the field of diplomatic communications.

Hey, I'm an INTJ!!! We are RARE and we ROCK!!! Especially the INTJ females (but maybe I'm biased, lol).

INTJ (introversion, thinking, intuition, judgment) is an abbreviation used in the publications of the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) to refer to one of the sixteen personality types. INTJs are one of the rarest of the sixteen personality types, and takes an approximately 2 to 6 percent of males and 1 to 3 percent of females. The MBTI assessment was developed from the work of prominent psychiatrist Carl G. Jung in his book Psychological Types. As an INTJ, your primary mode of living is focused internally, where you take things in primarily through your intuition. Your secondary mode is external, where you deal with things logically and rationally. INTJs live in the world of strategic and planning and world of ideas. They value knowledge, intelligence, competence and typically have high standards in these regards, which they continuously strive to fulfill.

emotional relationship department.

Half of both would be half way from either. Therefore, neither.
Thus the riddle remains unknown.

I think my personality is more INTJ. But when I took the test again INFJ for me. So probably similar in alot of ways.
