How are you NOT like the MBTI description of your INTJ, INTP, ENTP or ENTJ type?

INTJ
I have a lot of health problems, so I am more "fragile" than one would expect an INTJ to be. These problems don't stop me from setting goals and achieving them... I am just more careful of my limitations than most people, because I know what happens when I get too stressed out and it really isn't pretty.

I am also much more empathetic than most T types. Part of it comes from going through some of the things I've been through, and part of it comes from being in school to become a counselor ;)

I married young (21) - most INTJs in my experience don't/didn't.

Finally, I'm interested in fashion and enjoy shopping, as well as have a passion for animals, unlike the stereotypical INTJ.

I'm not interested in the sciences or engineering, I *am* interested in other people's thoughts and ideas (some people, anyway), I don't get great grades or push to get them, and while I make strategies for almost everything, I really suck at strategy games. I also enjoy shopping and care about what I look like.

My close friends don't see me as introverted, because they fail to remember the first year of our acquaintance when no words were exchanged.

I often feel like myself and other NTs are effectively seen as either "SP" or "SJ" (by SPs/SJs) because SPs tend to classify people as cool or prudish, and SJs classify people as responsible or reckless. Since I'm all these things at different times, the judgment can go either way.

If my dog died, so long as I didn't watch it and it wasn't some terrible agony, I don't think I'd be all that heartbroken. I like him enough to give him some attention when he's all needy like all young labs.

I like one-on-one better than being in a group. It takes a certain spark to get me going in a group, but then I guess I'm like a bonfire >_>. Also, IMO, I can be really deeply emotional.

When I'm in a conversation, I prefer to observe.
I'm much like the INTP in that I don't care much if my ideas are just ideas and nothing is produced through them. In a personal setting, ideas are the end on their own.

In a group setting, however, my ideas are usually clever enough to be seen as those that the group should focus on to bring to fruition. In a group setting, I'd be disappointed if my ideas weren't being productive.

I don't enjoy hitting small children or animals. In fact I quite like both.

I have a bossy side. I am impatient. Sometimes a little too adventurous for my own good.
I like puppies, candy, babies, etc.
edit:
Ok, I'm lying about the candy. Replace that with kittehs.

Te's too high for an ENTP.
I'm not messy; my appartment and car are always tidy and clean. I keep my accounts organized, I'm good at managing my finances and other people's. I'm very reliable and never flake. I've never been into math or science (passing interest - I'll browse through New Scientist now and again but that's my limit). I remember people's birthdays and anniversaries and always get them gifts. I'm good at organizing things from large sporting events to filing cabinets.
I'm told these traits are not typical for ENTP's.
