Typology Central - View Single Post - My husband tested ISFP but seems to be NT sometimes

Ok...I forgot I had posted this and just found it! Thanks for all the great answers!

My personal hunch is that he shows a tougher image 'to the world' as, being a man, the world in which he works has some tough features. Perhaps it is to compensate for the beautiful gentleness within him.

I was shocked to learn that his brother is INTJ and his 90 year old father insists that he (the father) is intuitive.

My husband sometimes 'seems intuitive' but maybe he is just very 'perceptive'. He is very S at times and we do have our moments of confusion when I am speaking figuratively and he, concretely. This was my biggest concern in marrying an S that I would lose that inner 'connection' but we really do have it nonetheless.

Perhaps it's because his F is so strong???

I don't understand the different functions of the introverted and extroverted versions.

I am ENFP so my feeling is introverted, right? So is his, acc to the charts.

His oldest daughter tested INTP.

Can a parent that are both P's have a J daughter and vice versa??
