Oh gee, talk about the "twist ending" I didn't know was coming. :blush: sorry... and sorry things ended badly as well.

It sounds like you at least took something away from it, though.

Personally, while I have a few ENFP friends, I also tend to get into arguments with other ENFPs I know. Not good. (It seems to depend on whether they are more N or more F.)

I have a lifelong ENFP friend that I occasionally have to yell at, because they constantly put other people before themselves, and then end up spread out too thin. We've argued about "Helping too much" a few times. I try to pass my '5' via osmosis when we hang out, hoping mine will become a little less concentrated.

And thanks, Lady X.

I have yet to find one who can withstand my incessant Ne-ness, as I have come to know it being. I constantly go past the line of charming to annoying, it's extremely difficult to shut-off though. I don't ask for much. I'm just not willing to change and I'll accept anyone who will accept that :D.

Someone on here had a pretty fantastic quote. I can't remember who, or where I read it, but it was pretty much: P's don't choose, but are chosen.

INTPs dont make choices, they get chosen

Maybe INTP men are more willing to settle with someone who chooses them than the wimminz of the species but if an INTP woman isn't interested, your choosing them will not go over well.
