*sigh* I wish I'd known more about MBTI when I was trailing my INTP around. These forums would have been a great help.

Once you discover the usefulness of Fe, and the beauty of connecting to humanity, you'll never go back.
How to deal with thinkers emotional blocked-ness
I have a live-in INTP boyfriend and, yes he does that as well. Thing is, he just doesn't feel the same way I do. It takes a lot for an INTP to trust you enough to even tell you their feelings. The way they express them is completely different. It can feel strange and ingenuine a lot of times but I've learned to take his word for it when he tells me how he feels.
When she does do her withdrawal thing - she won't even respond to texts - there is like a 24 - 48 hr lag time if she even bothers to respond...
All of my other friends always respond right away so it's a different experience for me - I have had to learn not to take it personally.
To get to an INTP's feelings, just hold them close, letting the warmth suffuse both of you, and then let him know that you value him; that he's irreplacable Don't choke, and be gentle. If I had anyone , I'd want them to do that to me. P.S.: If you're just in high school, don't bother. It's probably just develop into short term fling. If you can sustain a real relationship, do as I posted.
Wow, INTPs really just want long hugs? REVELATORY! (I knew hugs would save the NT souls.)
:runs for the nearest INTP: Don't panic INTJs. I see the horror in your eyes. I'll save your hugs for last.

Add some LSD and convince them that humanity isn't made up by robots.
Then you might actually see some tears.
I think INFP's can look very detached at times as well, or at least my ESFP mother would always say that I was about as emotional as a robot. Just because I don't flower her with love and hugs doesn't mean I don't feel it internally, dammit.
INTP hugs are most surprising though. At least I was stunned when I received one. I usually respond to hugs very quickly and very warmly, but I had to convince myself 'Is this usually totally unexpressive guy really hugging me?! Quick! It is true! Respond! Respond!' That was the most delayed response to a hug I have ever given!It's every INTP's dream to be floating around in space and time, unraveling all of its mysteries while being hugged by someone they love for all eternity (Or until there's nothing left to explore at least. )
I've come to realise that the worst question I can ask my INTP hubby is "Do you love me?" followed by either "Prove it!" or "Tell me what you love about me!". It's like a train wreck in slow motion >_>
