INTJ who systematically enslaved himself to an ESFP persona.

i only know a little about him. from what info i have, he's got some of the "tactics" of ESPs, but he goes for the wilder/fun type of player,so i'd say his creation is ESFP. i've never seen that vid though.. i feel kind of sorry for him to be honest. he's got a lot of shit he wants to get off of his chest.. and he fully admits it isn't him, that he isn't comfortable or confident or truly enjoys these experiences, and just does it all for the sake of (what he thought) was good for his overall happiness and survival. i dunno, maybe i shouldn't feel sorry for him. :cool:

INTP 5w6 Sx/So, I think. If it's an INTJ, it's a rather laid-back one.:cheese:

INFJ IMO.

INFJ have a brain built to deconstruct social dynamics with the Ni-Fe-Ti-Se combo and practically use it to their advantage. I wouldn't be surprised if a large number of the best self made PUA are INFJs.

I agree with much of the above. To risk bing repetitive:

INTp 5w4....who comes up with a theory (via...with the rather original if not ground breaking 'Mystery Method') of acting like an ESTp.

This is not too different from his earlier experiance of choosing to be a nerd turned magician (with a darker more controlled touch a la David Copperfield/David Blaine esq). Parol magic evolving to a dream of becoming a professional magician is a common INTP geek fantasy regardless if before or after one too many games of D&D. Showmanship especially Vegas style seems to have a push toward creating an ESTP character type (as are illustrated by most TV characters).

INTP Chameleon Effect helps keep him appearing congruent for his TV appearances and "short term game" applications.

Apparently I'm the only one who's read The Game. I considered INTJ, but he's far too manic. I'd say ENFP, 5w4 so/sx.

Are you fucking kidding me? How could this guy be anything but an Fi type? A fucked-up Fi type at that.

I started to read The Game. I couldn't resist. I'm only about half way through. He seems a bit emotionally unstable, narcissistic, and overcome with delusions of grandeur; though he is highly intelligent. He strikes me as more of an idealist than a rational. At times, overcome by fits of rage and melancholy. So far, in the book, he has contemplated suicide twice as well as murdering his father. He is a people-oriented individual and all of his theories are based on human interaction. I'm not sure if he is introverted or extroverted. He definitely seems intuitive, could be balanced on the T/F, but seems more F to me in contrast to Style. I would guess xNFJ, but I don't know enough about MBTI or Mystery to be convinced either way.

That very well could be. His mood swings may indicate an emotional disorder of some kind.

Why do you think he's definitely a Fi type? Can't a Ni type become manic depressive?

Well, TJs are Ni and Fi, which is why I considered INTJ initially. He's a definite extrovert though, and ENTJ is out because his Fi is too strong. He could be ESFP, except he states that he's figured this shit out from scratch. Se-doms are naturals at pickup.

I respect this man more than anybody I've met IRL at the moment, and it's not easy to earn my respect. Thanks for the feedback, everyone!

That man illustrate how Fe can work when it's submit to Ti, as with Introverted Thinker. He analysed how flirting and social dynamics work and build model to explain this logically, in the typical overanalytical/overobsessive way that Ti-dom display. He could be ISTP but he's too much geeky and involved in the building of model to be one. So, INTP. I've seen the show The PickUp Artist, and that have confirmed me in my opinion.

Elsewhere, INTP and ENTP seem pretty current types among PickUp Artist.

I'm curious. Why do you respect him?
