ISTP: I relate much more to Se than Ne, I'm athletic, aware and enjoy immersing myself in the environment and sensory experiences. Also I have a sadistic sense of humor, sometimes I have trouble asserting myself but other times it's very easy so I'm not sure about Se. I'm very competitive but lazy. I live in the now. I like to perform, I like making people laugh and I'm a show-off. As far as Ni and Si go I relate to them equally. I like exercising and doing things with my hands. I'm very much a loner.


INTP: I don't care to take objects apart and I don't really care much for technology. I relate a lot to the NT temperament, I'm very analytical and like to ponder things, I'm really logical and enjoy debating. I'm a smartass, I like trolling. People think I'm weird.

ISTP from this information. None of your INTP arguments exclude ISTP at all.

My little sis is an ISTP. She's super tough, but also has trouble asserting herself. And then, she doesn't. Seems to be a common theme. Also considering you both may have a 9w8 fix.

Edit: [MENTION=27302]PikUpYourPantsPatrol[/MENTION] I know this doesn't count for much, but you also vibe like an ISTP, too. And I've never heard an INTP say they enjoy "immersing themselves in the environment and sensory experiences." And ISTPs can be analytical and contemplative. For instance, my sister. She has a brilliant mind and loves to make analogies and parallels. I think it's a Ti thing, to be honest.

ISTP through and through. Should be clear, really.

Yup, ISTP. A lot of ISTPs are more of an NT temperament than an SP temperament. It's normal.
