I take your point HelenOfTroy but I was like this really only when much younger. It takes INs a bit longer to grow up than the rest of the population.

You're competely misunderstanding, we only appear that way because we dont care about you. :harhar:

Seriously, people hate us because we come right out and say what most only think. For me, I've spent so much of my life in angst about being unfairly hated and dismissed by others that I've to shut out others. Its the only way I can face the world to be honest. The more people I come to know, the more despairing I become of the human race. When empaths use their empathy to wound others for kicks I find it hard to respect or admire them.

No one ever gets to know me beyond a facade. I am purposefully boring because its a sure-fire way to get people to leave me alone. 'Weird' is an easy expectation to live up to. All people really want from you is to fulfill their expectations. I aim to please.

Well now gawsh!
I far from hate anybody. And i especially like several INT's really especially. :smile:
I was pointing towards negative traits, though i hasten to add that some of those flaws are also pretty attractive, particularly when those traits are a protective layer caused by a general disatisfaction with the teeming plebeian populous. You expect moar.

It does not suck to be intx imo just realize 3 things. 1 everyone accepts you already 2 you're probably a lot more like everyone else than you care to admit this is a good thing that helps you connect with others 3 intxs are some of the most fun/looked up to/respected people in the culture look at how many characters on tv/movies are those types because people find them unique/interesting

ego-fodder.

It's all about self-loathing. You wouldn't understand.

1.) Only recourse for nutrition as a helpless infant.
2.) Cold beverages can be painful on sensitive teeth and this action combined with the plastic drink aid, or straw, helps prevent contact.
3.) Its a method of stimulation our partners find quite pleasurable on various thin membraned areas of their bodies.

Not self-licking! That belongs in the INTP Appreciation thread.

INTPs make me feel stupid.

INTJs make me feel unaccomplished.


They suck!

As an outsider to the INT world, I think I have observed a few tendencies which could be a burden:

1. they can be lacking in co-ordination and spacial awareness, and bump into things;
2. they can get obsessive about things that are detached from reality;
3. they can have a geek's level of social interaction skills

But at the same time, great people to have in a debate, in a team, or in your group of friends. Deeply interesting and intelligent.

1. We care more about the inner world - translates as I don't give a fuck about you.
2. Find non-social activities entertaining - translates as I don't give a fuck about you.
3. Drop a bone everytime we open our mouths - translates as I don't give a fuck about you and here's why.

* They suck at fixing things around the house
* They wouldnt recognize a naked female if it sat on their lap while working on a project
* Nitpicking is their favorite sport


Gotto love STPs for these reasons though...
