intp or infp maybe since f/t is close?? or infj maybe?? not that it matters...just curious.
INTP/INFP
You have a high P score, so an INFJ with a high J score might be too contrasting with you. An INFJ with a low J score would be better.
INFJ

I don't think you can bitch slap an INTP. You wouldn't know which cheek is on their face.
What would 53% E, 84% N, 63% T, 74% P be best suited for?
65% E, 83% N, 67% T, 54% P?
Matched with either another INFJ or an ENTJ?
Like INTJMom proves, having a strong J preference might not indicate a greater attraction to Ps, or a strong J factor may be the reason one would be more attracted to Ps.
I have dated an ENTJ, and encountered more.
I am attracted to them, and appreciate what they offer. Not to mention the rapport. They have gone on to say that they appreciate how open and strong i am about my feelings and emotions/everything else without being illogical or stupid. Yay.
Well I think everything you said goes along with my idea.
E is about 3 times the interval, so I might as well say INTP is a good match. I don't think you can bitch slap an INTP. You wouldn't know which cheek is on their face.
What are your scores and matches?
Ha. The funny thing is that I don't really care about my own theory here. I'm not into people like that, but I would say INFP, since my T and J are my weaker functions. They're all pretty strong though so its hard to differentiate. I don't know how compatible the INFP is with myself so I can't really analyze this on a personal level. I guess I could....
People have been talking about this lately, so I figured I'd bump it, to clear up any questions about what "Lemons' theory" for relationship pairings is.
In a way, you might say that Keirsey had the same idea, except he thought the only scale worth applying this to was the N/S scale. And that he thought the gap was so wide that we'd probably always prefer same-preference on that scale.
This just generalizes it out, saying that it applies to all 4 scales. Not just N/S, but now any of the 4 scales for a relationship pair could be "unbridge-able", insurmountable if one's preference in a scale is very strong.
I was also thinking that this could be described as an Acid-Base relationship approach. When Acids lose an H+ atom, they become the Base form of themselves, their "Conjugate". Strong acids have weak conjugate bases, and very strong acids have very weak conjugate bases, etc.
Just as easily, we might say that strong Fs need weak conjugate Ts as their match, very strong Ps need very weak Js as their match... though technically, Lemons' theory would have them cross the neutral line when a preference gets too strong (and that wouldn't happen with chemistry, I think), but it's a general idea.
Lemons' idea:
_
|
|
|
|
|--weak I
|
|----neutral line
|
|--weak E
|
|
|
_
_
|
|--strong I
|
|
|
|--slight I
|-----neutral line

The distance between the two people's preferences is about the same no matter where the placement. Too wide a gap on the scale would just grate on each other's nerves.
Good point. Most "best match" theories choose one type to go with one other, for instance ISFJ always going with ESTP. Some, like Socionics, branch it out to a few more choices, but it's still completely defined by type (as far as I can tell), for instance type ABCD always with WXCD or WXCZ, in about equal probability.what makes this theory better is the flexibility. it allows for say one ENTJ to want ____ and another to want _____. it can be one letter lfipped, or 3 flipped...
It makes sense, if you're wanting a relationship with the least potential amount of conflict and misunderstanding.
So a strong I would be best with another I with this theory.
According to this, I think my best match would be INTP. Now I like INTP's quite a lot, and can see that allure.
However I already know that I don't particularly want to be in a ltr with another introvert, as introverts don't really know how to 'bring me out', and vice versa. We both end up being introverted together. Fine on a companionship/friendship level, but for a lifelong relationship, I actually desire for one of my strongest traits - being introverted and introspective and more withdrawn - to be balanced out by someone who pulls me out of my shell.
But I understand the concept, and there are a good number of people who do desire their relationships to be more along those lines.
