[MBTI General] WHY would an ENTJ like an ENFP?

[Nijntje]

Ahah, no...you might not have gotten to know them yet. I mean, not enough to see all their facets. I don't think we are that well-kept, rational and calculating. We're extraverts, can be impulsive and highly messy.

The ENTJ I'm involved with currently is VERY much like this; extraverted, impulsive, messy, but also extremely logical and cerebral, and while i think others find his sense of humour a little too.. (trying to think of the right word) acidic (?), where as i find it hilarious, also his false ego and hubris is hysterically see-through, but others can misinterpret it as real.

WHY would an ENTJ like an ENFP?

They used to tick none of the boxes in my check-list when I was a young and arrogant cunt. Thinking back, only another XNTJ would've done that.
When you're organized, you want someone else who's organized.
When you're highly intellectual, you're likely to seek someone else to share those same subjects with.
When you're hard-working, you're likely to think that you want someone with the same drive as you.
...etc.

It was wrong. Failed experiment.

I fell in love with an ENFP because it fucking happened. I was okay with her flaws as long as they did not drive me crazy.
I might never know why.

I think romantically, ENTJs would be better fit with INTPs. Both are dominant thinkers and intuitive, but with orientation reversed.

I know the intellectual synergy and impersonal tackling of situations and subjects you're talking about. Meh.

I think part of my attraction to ENFPs is that I'm a simple asshole who wants to shit on everyone's dreams. But they're sharper than to believe that.

Is this a trick question?
