INTP guy + ESTJ/ENTJ girl

[Risen]

So, out of curiosity, how well would this dynamic work? I've heard the two are complimentary to INTP's, but how so? And how do the ENTJ and ESTJ compare?

[Mondo]

It could work well, I guess....
I think it depends on how strong the preferences are.


An uber-extraverted, overly sensing, and extremely organized ESTJ would probably do poorly with an uber-introverted, extremely intuitive, and very flexible INTP.

However.. if there isn't too much difference between the preferences.. it could work out.

Yeah I agree.

With a strongly intuitive INTP an ESTJ isn't going to make a great match.

I know that I almost always get a long very well with INTPs, but I've never engaged in a romantic relationship with one.

I think the male INTP female ENTJ relationship will be somewhat tougher to develop than the alternative gender typing.

Hmm. Well, I do test something like 100% intuitive :p . Not sure if that works against such a relationship or not. I'd also find the conformist attitude of the ESTJ to be troubling as an INTP (natural rebel of sorts, wont conform if I don't want to or don't believe in it). Honestly, I walk the road less traveled by just to see what it's like. Not sure an ESTJ would take very well to that. Hmm...

Plus I'm having trouble pinpointing the personality of the said person since it apparently involves a lot of functions I don't posses, yet are very similar. Let me describe some things I've noticed in hopes one of you may have a better idea than I do.

1. She seems pretty conformist. Likes to go with the established order. Likes the idea of wearing school uniforms for instance (ick :( ).

2. She likes to take leadership, and will do so with a quickness (and quite effectively I might add :) ).

3. She has an opinion on how things should be, and is generally not afraid to express it. If she sees something "wrong" she will get up and fix it or at least say something, but not in a rude way.

4. She seems to appreciate thinking logically and thuroughly.

5. When she tries to make a point and feels she is failing to make it clearly, she will immediately withdraw and drop the point for fear of making herself seems stupid I think. However, she really is much better at expressing her thoughts than she gives herself credit for at times.

6. She likes video games a lot, and anime I think.

7. She seems moderately extroverted, mostly when it comes to her taking the leadership role. Otherwise, with people she doesn't know as well, she doesn't seem to engage in a lot of chit chat. I have observed that she is quite chatty with her good friend though.

Any ideas here???
