Do you want honesty? OK....
I know two INTJ/INFP couples. One of the INTJ's is a good friend.
Here's what I have noticed about the INTJs:
- Lack of appropriate inner sensor with regard to statements
- Pedantic attitude, unwillingness to back down, even when proven wrong
- 'My way, or the highway'
- cynical (and believing that this constitutes 'proof' or sophistication)
- Inability to see other's emotional states, or offer soothing words, including 'I'm sorry'.
On the other hand:
-Both are very reliable
-Intelligent
-Generous
Oddly, if I use statements that take the INTJ's emotional state into consideration when I debate with them, they are more likely to be persuaded that they are wrong or missing something. It seems to me that under all of that sophistication is a lonely 6-year old who needs a hug. I am aware of the irony.
