NTs are better friends, NFs are better lovers.

-1

in my experience, NFs are better friends, and NTs are better lovers.

^yeah, If I had an NF lover he would probably be in the trunk of my car.

NTs suck at romance. It's practically mandatory.

well, yeah, if they're the type that are close-minded and can't see past their own opinions, sure.

but, which type isn't in that case.

NTs suck at romance. It's practically mandatory.

Which is why they pair up great together--neither will care how much the other sucks at being romantic. Both are free to be themselves instead of catering to some romantic ideal that neither really cares about.

romance is different for each individual. actually, that's what romance is. just because it hasn't met one person's idea of it, well, to be frank, that doesn't mean shit.

Just because one sucks at something doesn't mean one doesn't care about it.

A fine romance, without any romance!

Yeah, I personally find the awkward and geeky displays of affection I get from other NTs to be far more romantic than the the NF kind.

bingo.

 

[Salomé]

I got me awkward and geeky in spades. Give me something I don't got.

okay, we get it. you've made your point. now, if you'll just move along to a thread that's made for getting an NF, you'll have better luck with your search.

Why? Does my presence here disturb you? I actually rerailed the thread which was steering off towards another "why ENTJs suck" rant.

Perhaps you should report my posts if you think they're out of line? The constant snarkiness is ...kinda blah.

wow, lighten up, will you? my point is that this is a thread about NTs who actually don't want to sweat and moan over an NF in the context of a relationship. you made your preference known, even though it didn't fit, and then went on and on about it.

like, we're supposed to change OUR minds just because you have a preference.

so, i simply pointed out that we get it. we do. we really really do.

It's called conversation. An exchange of ideas. And not at all at odds with the OP.

Try it sometime. Instead of repetitive snark.

fine, go ahead with it. i don't care enough to continue.

NT women are so hot when they bicker

 

[erm]

Now where are Victor and Mayflow...

 

[simulatedworld]

Also, it's interesting to see an ENTP telling an INTP to quit talking so much.

fine, go ahead with it. i don't care enough to continue.

The other problem I have with NT-NT relationships is the competitiveness. Which is great in friendships where it serves to sharpen the mind and bring clarity, but it's too exhausting to maintain in romantic relationships where winning so often means losing.

Maybe finding it too exhausting is related to introversion. I think it's great between ENTPs and I rarely get tired of it, especially because we both know it's just a game anyway.
