NT, How Are You NOT Like Your Type Description?

How are you NOT like the MBTI description of your INTJ, INTP, ENTP or ENTJ type?

My sense of humor is not perverse...

It is ultra perverse

Kristiana · 09-11-2008, 01:52 AM

I have a lot of health problems, so I am more "fragile" than one would expect an INTJ to be. These problems don't stop me from setting goals and achieving them... I am just more careful of my limitations than most people, because I know what happens when I get too stressed out and it really isn't pretty.

I am also much more empathetic than most T types. Part of it comes from going through some of the things I've been through, and part of it comes from being in school to become a counselor

I married young (21) - most INTJs in my experience don't/didn't.

Finally, I'm interested in fashion and enjoy shopping, as well as have a passion for animals, unlike the stereotypical INTJ.

I'm not interested in the sciences or engineering, I *am* interested in other people's thoughts and ideas (some people, anyway), I don't get great grades or push to get them, and while I make strategies for almost everything, I really suck at strategy games. I also enjoy shopping and care about what I look like.

That part's pretty normal methinks

My close friends don't see me as introverted, because they fail to remember the first year of our acquaintance when no words were exchanged.

I often feel like myself and other NTs are effectively seen as either "SP" or "SJ" (by SPs/SJs) because SPs tend to classify people as cool or prudish, and SJs classify people as responsible or reckless. Since I'm all these things at different times, the judgment can go either way.

I'm frequently silly.
