Here's a datum for the single intps.
So I set up an online date with an intp female.
I don't know about you other intp's, but intuitively another intp seems like the ideal match to me because I'm really looking for a sense of mutual understanding and mental connection in a partner.
Anyway, we met for dinner which always is a first date rife with awkwardness as people read the menu, take time to chew, etc. There weren't the sparks I had hoped for. We ended up trapped in small talk. I tried to steer the conversation to some ideas, but nothing caught. Neither one of us was able to sustain the role of the extrovert. I didn't find her physically attractive which probably hindered the flow as well.
It wasn't an unpleasant evening but I won't be calling her again. My idea of intp-intp compatibility has been undermined. Perhaps I'd hit it off with a nice entp or xnfp...
