So, there is a thread on here that basically goes on and on about how AWESOME AND AMAZING the ENTP + INFJ dynamic is. However, this thread seemed to be from a male ENTP perspective on INFJ females (and according to INTP posts on the thread, the love of INFJ women has been brought up by many ENTP males).
So, my question is, does this "perfect" relationship dynamic still hold true for ENTP female + INFJ male?
In my opinion, classic female and male roles in relationships in an ENTP female + INFJ male dynamic would be extremely skewed. An ENTx male is the stereotypic epitome of this classic "maleness" - he's logical, intelligent, he loud and dominant. He's the bread earner and the "master of his domain". And the INFx female? Again fits the stigma of this kind, nurturing, gentile soul. She is that proverbial damsel in distress waiting for her brave knight.
Now look at ENTx women. Aggressive, dominant, analytical, cunning. Now, combine this with the nurturing INFJ romantic, and you've got yourself quite the male/female role-reversal so to speak. This, in my mind would almost epitomize the "modern" relationship of the woman more likely to fall into the "bread earner" role in family, and the male counterpart being more likely to play the role of "stay at home dad". Maybe this can work, but could it last? Or would the parties involved become too uncomfortable with these "roles"?
Also, in my opinion, ENTx women vs ENTx men, tend to have a stronger developed Fe/Fi function, and seem to be very attuned to social expectations and dynamics, much in the same way an NF would. Therefore, would they feel comfortable with a man with also a high amount of NF? Or would they feel uneasy about "emotional overload"??
Are ENTx women between a rock and a hard place, or can this type of relationship thrive??
(Please do not be offended by any of my blatant stereotypes in this post. It was to serve a point by using hyperbole rather than be offensive.)
