ENTJs should be much less focused on people, much colder and reserved and also extremely straighforward and blunt, generally not concerned with how what they say will effect others emotionally. An ENTJ is likely to speak out even when he has the whole group against him, trying to make his point and not holding back because maybe someone could be offended. At first glance they may resemble an ESTJ, or an INTJ, but probably not an ENFJ.
Though an ENTJ of course also shows feelings to others, but it is likely that he will act rather ackward, as it is his last function.
Though that is all just my personal speculation, as I dont know any ENFJs personally and I am not even completely sure wether I'm ENTJ or INTJ.
Edit: I would think that an ENTJ who has been hurt would probably not open up more to people, he would likely think that he needs to be "strong" and "hard" and not show any weakness to other people, generally become more unapproachable and distant.
You could also mistake an ENTJ for an introvert maybe, becaue he will often be misunderstood, and people usually react badly to his forceful presence, so it is possible that the ENTJ will tone down his personality to better fit into social settings.
I can not say how an ENFJ would react, maybe one of the ENFJs on this board can shed some light on that.

Showing feelings to others is Fe. The fifth function of ETJ. In the middle.
Fi is not about showing feelings. Fi is about private feelings.
