They might like listening to music that is a bit intense, but also like music that is slow and heavy, and the delicate and beautiful. They are difficult to please when it comes to artistic and musical tastes, and may not like what is trendy, they avoid trends at all costs. INTJ 4's are also in their own worlds... they may find books, music, and art better than the chaotic/noisy world around them.
Never argue with an INTJ 4 though... be prepared for them to get a bit defensive, and temperamental.

Hello, I'm new here. I have found a quote from someone, when i have searched for "INTJ 4w5", that have picked my interest.
I would like to see or read more about INTJs 4w5 or 5w4.
From my experience i can tell you some things. Friends often said something like "i should smile more. I am always so serious". This might be often the case. But i can appear as serious even when i feel different, more happy, more feeling good etc. This is how we know the INTJs in general anyway. On the other hand a friend said to me "You may be unemotional, but inside yourself you are 10x so emotional than everyone else".
So this sounds realistic to me. Because i have read that the 4s are the most emotional people from Eneagram and the INTJ is the less emotional from MBTI. But still i have the wing of the 5's. The 5's are afraid of showing or having emotions. I only share this to a small amount, it isn't really an issue to me to show or having emotons, but just like the 5's i mostly try to prevent them. Sometimes I'm not that comfortable with it.
I also live with many contradictions. For example sometimes i am known as very outgoing (asking the others to meet each other etc.). This is my friends-phase. And on the other hand i also have very long loner-phases where i am absolutly not interested in my friends or going out. I am very fine alone then, and i find much occupation. Some friends i haven't seen for ~ 5 years ~ and after I was interested to meet them again and got back into the friends-phase.
