Wow, more sensing than I thought it would be

hidden, private, has trouble describing feelings, not very affectionate, loner tendencies, lower energy, can be insensitive to the misfortunes of others, disorganized, messy, fears drawing attention to self, anti-tattoos, anti counter culture, not comfortable in unfamiliar situations, avoidant, rather unemotional, does not like attention, more interested in intellectual pursuits than relationships or family, hermitic, not complimentary, dislikes leadership, more submissive then domineering


Anti tattoos? why would I be anti tattoos?

EDIT: Blah, INTP sounds more like me than ISTP. But they are pretty close...

This is at least the third type of Myers-Briggs type testing I've taken and the results are always the same:

INTJ

Introverted (I) 87.5% Extroverted (E) 12.5%
Sensing (S) 50% Intuitive (N) 50%
Thinking (T) 62.5% Feeling (F) 37.5%
Judging (J) 62.5% Perceiving (P) 37.5%

INTJ - "Mastermind". Introverted intellectual with a preference for finding certainty. A builder of systems and the applier of theoretical models. 2.1% of total population. One of the rarest of the sixteen personality types.

For the most part, the description is sad but true, but I've underlined the traits I disagree with.

loner, more interested in intellectual pursuits than relationships or family, not very altruistic, not very complimentary, would rather be friendless than jobless, observer, values solitude, perfectionist, detached, private, not much fun, hidden, skeptical, does not tend to like most people, socially uncomfortable, not physically affectionate, unhappy, does not talk about feelings, hard to impress, analytical, likes esoteric things, tends to be pessimistic, not spontaneous, prone to discontentment, guarded, does not think they are weird but others do, responsible, can be insensitive or ambivalent to the misfortunes of others, orderly, clean, organized, familiar with darkside, tends not to value organized religion, suspicious of others, can be lonely, rarely shows anger, punctual, finisher, prepared.

Usually when I reflect on my personality type and acknowledge these characteristics, I become saddened because the majority of people are not like me and so there are less people in this world I can truly relate to. :(

INTPs ad INTJs are very similar. The INTJs are just more organized and clean. I am unorganized. :lol:

Also, it seems that I(x)T(x)s are more prone to Atheism. :o

I hate to not buck the trend but INTP
Like the lack of a middle btw


Introverted (I) 54.17% Extroverted (E) 45.83%
Intuitive (N) 58.33% Sensing (S) 41.67%
Thinking (T) 54.17% Feeling (F) 45.83%
Perceiving (P) 70.83% Judging (J) 29.17%

GTA already posted the personality description. I am a loner, and do love my intilectual pursuits though i'm becoming more person-oriented, mainly because i'm realizing my intilect sucks. Definitely wrestle with the meaning of life; hence all the moral debates. The main reason i'm INTP is my messiness. I love the speculative nature of social and technological sci-fi, the more michael bay style shows disinterest me. I realize I'm wierd, definitely support marijuana legalization, never compramise even with myself, love breaking rules if i think they're absurd to see stuffed shirts react, and definitely socially awkward. People happy and content in this world of suffering annoy me, more so than they should. It's hard to rely on your mind when your mind is a faliure.

The ideal jobs are very ME; philosophy professor, game designer, research scientist,assassin, slacker... considered them all, probably bank on the last one :P

Either this test is rigged or we are all the same person.

I'm INTP, but I could care less about legalizing marijuana and I'd rather think of myself as having an unspecified religion rather than be labeled as an atheist.

And darn it, I wanted to be a psychologist! It doesn't help either that I only have two years of high school left. Screw it, I'll just settle with being a football playing king in space.

Wonderful. Pressured into finding a career that won't end with me getting blown up or working at Wal-Mart and pressured into finding a path to God before the world ends with us getting blown up. Curse you, Left Behind!

Nope. I'm pretty sure that people that use the net a lot are more inclined to be INTPs.
(Or INTPs are inclined to use the net.... Whatever.)

It was pretty accurate on me, except "does not accept apologies easily". I've maybe missed something but that's the only thing I saw was wrong about me.

I don't know how to use the underline option, I'm new, 2nd forum I've ever joined, and the other forum didn't have the underline option, sorry.

A friend of mine sent a quiz to me that was similar to that. Here's what I got:

INFJ - Introverted iNtuitive Feeling Judging
(Introverted intuition with extroverted feeling)

The Protector


As an INFJ, your primary mode of living is focused internally, where you take things in primarily via intuition. Your secondary mode is external, where you deal with things according to how you feel about them, or how they fit with your personal value system.

INFJs are gentle, caring, complex and highly intuitive individuals. Artistic and creative, they live in a world of hidden meanings and possibilities. Only one percent of the population has an INFJ Personality Type, making it the most rare of all the types.

INFJs place great importance on havings things orderly and systematic in their outer world. They put a lot of energy into identifying the best system for getting things done, and constantly define and re-define the priorities in their lives. On the other hand, INFJs operate within themselves on an intuitive basis which is entirely spontaneous. They know things intuitively, without being able to pinpoint why, and without detailed knowledge of the subject at hand. They are usually right, and they usually know it. Consequently, INFJs put a tremendous amount of faith into their instincts and intuitions. This is something of a conflict between the inner and outer worlds, and may result in the INFJ not being as organized as other Judging types tend to be. Or we may see some signs of disarray in an otherwise orderly tendency, such as a consistently messy desk.

INFJs have uncanny insight into people and situations. They get "feelings" about things and intuitively understand them. As an extreme example, some INFJs report experiences of a psychic nature, such as getting strong feelings about there being a problem with a loved one, and discovering later that they were in a car accident. This is the sort of thing that other types may scorn and scoff at, and the INFJ themself does not really understand their intuition at a level which can be verbalized. Consequently, most INFJs are protective of their inner selves, sharing only what they choose to share when they choose to share it. They are deep, complex individuals, who are quite private and typically difficult to understand. INFJs hold back part of themselves, and can be secretive.

But the INFJ is as genuinely warm as they are complex. INFJs hold a special place in the heart of people who they are close to, who are able to see their special gifts and depth of caring. INFJs are concerned for people's feelings, and try to be gentle to avoid hurting anyone. They are very sensitive to conflict, and cannot tolerate it very well. Situations which are charged with conflict may drive the normally peaceful INFJ into a state of agitation or charged anger. They may tend to internalize conflict into their bodies, and experience health problems when under a lot of stress.

Because the INFJ has such strong intuitive capabilities, they trust their own instincts above all else. This may result in an INFJ stubborness and tendency to ignore other people's opinions. They believe that they're right. On the other hand, INFJ is a perfectionist who doubts that they are living up to their full potential. INFJs are rarely at complete peace with themselves - there's always something else they should be doing to improve themselves and the world around them. They believe in constant growth, and don't often take time to revel in their accomplishments. They have strong value systems, and need to live their lives in accordance with what they feel is right. In deference to the Feeling aspect of their personalities, INFJs are in some ways gentle and easy going. Conversely, they have very high expectations of themselves, and frequently of their families. They don't believe in compromising their ideals.

INFJ is a natural nurturer; patient, devoted and protective. They make loving parents and usually have strong bonds with their offspring. They have high expectations of their children, and push them to be the best that they can be. This can sometimes manifest itself in the INFJ being hard-nosed and stubborn. But generally, children of an INFJ get devoted and sincere parental guidance, combined with deep caring.

In the workplace, the INFJ usually shows up in areas where they can be creative and somewhat independent. They have a natural affinity for art, and many excel in the sciences, where they make use of their intuition. INFJs can also be found in service-oriented professions. They are not good at dealing with minutia or very detailed tasks. The INFJ will either avoid such things, or else go to the other extreme and become enveloped in the details to the extent that they can no longer see the big picture. An INFJ who has gone the route of becoming meticulous about details may be highly critical of other individuals who are not.

The INFJ individual is gifted in ways that other types are not. Life is not necessarily easy for the INFJ, but they are capable of great depth of feeling and personal achievement.

Dominant: Introverted Intuition
Auxilliary: Extraverted Feeling
Tertiary: Introverted Thinking
Inferior: Extraverted Sensing
