Ooooh, FantailedWall, my dad is an ENTJ and he is far worse when it comes to NTJ scheming than any INTJ I know.
Obviously not being an INTJ I can't know for sure, but I reckon that INTJs only become stubborn and hard to get through to when they think that they know better from the very beginning (as your dad must feel all the time what with being your dad) . Both INTJs I know only really try to control my life or my ideas when they are just so sure that theirs is better. Do correct me if I'm wrong, INTJs!
I would really like to know why it is INTJs behave like that and what is the best way to communicate with them when the do?
I totally identify. Sometimes I just *know* that I'm right...I guess I've mellowed with age though.
As to why I behave like that...several possible reasons
1) I've seen something similar enough before to be able to recognise the risks of "your" current plan...
2) I know I'd feel like I should have tried my hardest to dissuade you if you went ahead and I hadn't warned you...
3) I like you enough to bother...
I'd have to think about the best way to communicate... There probably are some strategies...
