simply put, no. i try and read about this stuff and i get small references about keirsey's method, particularly when i read about specific types and their love life. the explanations are usually short and really just leaves you wondering. that's why i made this thread, and honestly, some of the stuff i get here is better than what a lot of the 'experts' say, apart from maybe the top dogs of the game like keirsey.

i guess we can start with these short explanations. this is apparently from keirsey himself. still isn't very long though.

The ENFJ, on the intuitive side, finds the INTP attractive. Now here is a splendid target for our catalyst, for beneath the cool, collected, detached, and doubting exterior lies an architect of buildings, machines, tools, operations, tactics, languages, mathematics, or whatever can be designed. If, that is, this latently capable designer can be "activated" or "brought out".

here's the INTP side of the story:

The INTP also has a second likely target to attract him: the ENFJ "pedagogue." What is a pedagogue? A catalyst of the growth process, someone who has that uncanny ability to "bring out" the other, to activate the differentiation or "unfolding" process in the learner. All NFs seem to have this capability in some degree and the accompanying desire to exercise it, but the ENFJ seems to have it in abundance. This relationship-the ENFJ-INTP-can be "deep and meaningful" for the former and anchoring in a charismatic way for the latter.

sounds exactly the same to me . there must be more to the story than this. DISCUSS!
