[INTP] INTPs and feelings.

[Totenkindly]

INTPs do not have feelings.
We are robots.
Cold insensitive biological machines that always behave rationally, flawlessly, and efficiently.

(excuse me while I go grab some dark chocolate and whiskey while jamming out to heavy rock and playing first-person shooters)

Pretty soon I'm going to Smith-infect the Matrix and y'all are gonna be my li'l clones. (Don't worry, it's painless. Well, mostly; I want it to hurt a LITTLE bit.)

He does seem to have about the same amount of emotional response.

feelings, are those the wierd things that make you act silly, uneffective and irrational or make your tummy feel wierd? or was that gas.

personally I do have some occasional bursts of random emotion once or twice a month (usually sadness, depression or even anger) for maybe 10-20 minutes at a time, the reasons for em I do not know or understand and I find it very disturbing and strange even more the not understanding part.

feelings need to be pretty strong or they will be filtered by Ti, or atleast it was like this or dunno.

There's also the whole thing where next to no one even notices when an INTP has feelings.

If I'm engaged in something I just don't notice when I feel things. However, if Ti's not actively doing something, I actually feel things pretty strongly. I can sort of explain them most of the time. Well enough to convey what I need to, anyway, even if it isn't quite as good as I'd like.
