Funny.. I just mentioned earlier that it'd only be fitting for an ENTP to follow up his own post like this.

Why fitting?

But anyway. Wholeheartedly agree. You have to be upfront. Cuz.. we do care.
And shit.

Yea, agreed. ENTP are just retarded, especially younger ones. We see things that aren't there and don't see things that are there all the while convinced that we can see just about EVERYTHING. *shakes head* Stop drinking your own kool-aid.

I'm mister self sabotage. In a way. Also I'm quite childlike when it comes to dealing with 'people who like me'.
avoid or do as if nothing happened 'last night'.

I can be smoother than butter but when it comes to follow up i'm like 'boy..friend? ow, don't u prefer like, drinking buddy? We could meet in clubs, bars and all. It could be fun !

It's like the walls as closing in on me or something.

Oh, the walls closing in? That's the consequences we like to pretend don't exist.

When we feel convinced that we know the real truth in every situation.

Well.. actually.. I'd said in a conversation earlier today, "only an ENTP would be the first to respond to his own post in agreement." This seemed somewhat similar. Well.. close enough to kinda make me smirk, at least.. :rolli:

Ironic.

Becoming closer to all-knowing, when you realize you aren't all-knowing. :D

Knowledge is an illusion. A trap. A lie that will fuck you up. Make you stumble. Not to mention that it makes you stop asking questions. And looking.

That's the point, fluff. Just when I think I've got it all figured out, something happens that makes me realize I don't. Then I want to take off and search for the truth. That's usually when I bail.

You're just a pussy. Stop making cover stories to salve your wounded ego.

Well, there's knowledge and then there is wisdom, that guides us to the knowledge.

It would be wise to seek the knowledge you want, without assuming you will know it all.

Hahaha, I'm not a pussy and I'm not wounded - that's the honest truth. Projection, perhaps?

Do any other ENTPs get some strange pleasure out of artistically sabotaging relationships? Or is that just a general dysfunction thing?

I wonder if INFJs have similar issues with this.
Dysfunctional INFJs.
Seems like this deals with a lot of walls. Doubt, denial, fears.. overall vulnerability..

Assuming the OP wants to have a healthy relationship someday... the only means of having one is to let go of all the barriers. Embrace the fear. Be open to the fact that you can't control or know everything in the present or future.

Floating in outer space, more or less.
It sucks.

But I heartell the payoff is worth more than anything else in the end.
