Thanks.
I think I have a whole grasp around it now. I made the terrible mistake to relate to archetypes and dummy forums where people try to fit the "cool" persona of their type.
I watched a video where someone spoke about differences between intj and intp and I definitively relate more to the intj side than intp side. This is the first video I saw which was actually simple and explained by a mature man and not by a theoretician/adolescent/consultant with no scientific background.
I see know the core of functions and not their statistical representation. I am more Te than Ti for sure even if I can use Ti (it kinda exhausts me). I was not the stereotypical introvert when I was a kid (very active). I think I am a mix between I/E NTJ but more I.
I did not related much with Ni because people tend to explain it in a grandiose way. For myself, it is just a part of my life and I did not really see it as exceptionnal. But now I think about it, I see that my conscious thought tend to do leaps in thinking every time but not so often as "ahah" (this is so common..). I extroverted my Te by playing with my toys : there was a rank among my characters. I loved allegorical characters and so on...
The theme of my life : love, persona (enneagram 4) can have mislead me because for me an INTJ was a classical nerd as well as the intp. I felt very different from my comrades (in terms of interests and not thinking) even in engineering school and pure scientific classes (in France, we have a special kind of education called preparatory classes whitch are two years intensive theoretical classes to prepare entry in leading schools).
I did not came from thinking family at all and I grew up in a kind of "gangsta" town (not that much but a bit). I did not really interact with nerds during my childhood which can explain my deviation.
That is why I can relate also to ISFP archetype but definitively not to Se. I relate to ENTP in archetype (70%) but in terms of functions I am more in the : Ni, Fi, Te kingdom. The Fe part mislead me too but I understood this part poorly. Even a Fi wants to be loved at least a bit, this is a part of our self confidence.
I find all the functions of INTJ in terms of directions but not clearly archetype. I do one project after another, I feel inconfortable around chaos, my brain definitely filters information to keep the abstraction I like and I am a strong right-brained in terms of perception (but not in action where I am more left brained).
Yes I can practice Ne too since it is intuition afterall but I do not relate to the "many alternatives" part.
So INTJ, ENTJ or ISFP are fine for me since they have same functions. I just needed some ground to find my way back. INFJ ? Could be possible but the strong Fe part seems unlikely...
