intjs might be a lil too similar to istjs for me to be able to cope with such a thing.

I'd say INFP... Even though MBTI seems to put together I and E types, I still think introverts can get along the best with introverts.

haha who else are we INFPs gonna date though? :/

Cool cats and hipsters in their early 30s ? lol

I personally don't know any INTJ, but I assume a cool INTJ and I can appreciate each other's imagination and independence, while I can really be inspired by their decisive and determined attitude. However, I might find them too judgmental and possibly too arrogant to fall in love with.

ENFPs are great for flings while INFPs are great for wife material.

If you ever met an ENFP in real life, you will realize how scatterbrained they are at times, and how they are prone to postpone or cancel plans at last minute.
Being the reliable type INTJs are, this flakiness would get on their nerves.

So INFPs would be a better match for INTJ. They are less flakey than their extroverted counterparts.
INTJs go best with INFPs, while ENFPs go best with a fellow extrovert such as ENTPs.

I think if you're gonna date solely based on type, that's the same as not dating someone because of their religion and you do have feelings for them. it's stupid and cutting yourself off from whole pools of potential people to date. that being said you don't want to date me, so don't even consider it. this is not reverse psychology this is just the truth.

Sorry, I didn't mean to drag you guys in here. But yeah, I wrote about ENTP in my answer because there is this ENTP guy who has a huge crush on this ENFP girl in my class, and I find this very cute

I forgive you. ;)

BUT, he's not US, and I'm in a very happy long-term relationship with an INFP guy, so see, anecdotal not the best here. For what it's worth though, I do find that very cute as well.

nahh if this were the case you wouldn't see so many posts from INTJs praising ENFPs and talking about how INFPs are horrible and psycho.

I used to think I was not a flake, at least not at ENFP level, until some recent events which could be filed squarely under flaky. The degree of it became evident to me when my mom told me, in an attempt to comfort, that it wasn't so bad because a certain "Karen", whom I type ENFP, has done the same thing more than once. This ENFP "Karen" is just about the most flakiest, fickle person you could imagine. She's smart, cool, interesting, and nice, but absolutely flaky. When I told my mom this comparison was no comfort because everyone says she is the flakiest person ever, she stayed quiet....she stayed quiet because she knows it's true. I suppose the comfort is that she doesn't believe this behavior deserves negative judgment or is all that bad, so that her view of "Karen" is also not negatively affected by it.

It was quite depressing to realize I was at that level of flaky, but it does give insight into how much internal motivation, intent, and effort there is to NOT flake out. I assign good intentions to these ENFPs, because it's not a weakness any worse than other weaknesses, it's just one that other people find hard to grasp, and so it's harder for them to accept it. I have some grasp of it, being nearly as bad at times....

Certainly, INFPs may be less flaky than ENFPs on the whole, but in comparison to everyone else, we can be kind of flaky still. Frankly, I don't find NTPs much better. Let's just all blame Ne :D .

Hmm... maybe other INFPs? :D

And what did we do to deserve that? :cry:
