You care more about the process - and investigating every piece of the whole - than you do about speeding toward an end result. You care about more than just resultsĭismissive of deadlines and timetables, some people see you as unreliable. (Some friends, especially INTJs, will really value this about you.) 9. You’d much rather give practical advice to resolve the underlying issue than offer sympathy. You’re probably not the person your friends turn to for emotional support. However, when you do get into a relationship, you’re a dedicated, loyal partner or friend. As a result, you often wait for others to make the first move.
Getting out and meeting new people, risking rejection, and being emotionally vulnerable are all far outside your comfort zone. Relationships have never come easy to you Many INTPs become exceptional listeners, and exhibit great caring and tolerance to those they love. INTPs can get around this by treating emotions as something to be studied in their own right. Since your mind is a logic machine, it often feels like your emotions are the monkey wrench that clogs up its otherwise seamless functioning. You simply struggle to express your feelings due to your Feeling function not being well developed. There’s a ghost in the machineĭeep down, you’re a sensitive and emotional person. However, you become talkative and enthusiastic when you meet someone who shares your niche interests. The stereotypical “nerd,” you may be shy or withdrawn around people you don’t know well. As a result, you can easily offend people when you speak your mind (and many INTPs choose simply not to do so). You can be ruthless when analyzing concepts and beliefs, and you consider very little to be sacred you don’t understand how some people stay loyal to ideas that have been proven illogical. You’re eager to break apart ideas that others take for granted. It’s also when a lot of your most brilliant ideas come to you. This is when so many different areas of the brain “light up” in quick succession that, on an EEG, they look like the blinking lights of a Christmas tree. You often seem lost in an unending daydream, as your mind is always humming with ideas - in part because INTPs are one of just a few personality types that exhibit Christmas Tree Brain.
You have a bad case of Christmas Tree Brain What you really want to be doing with your time is using your creative genius to drill down on problems and develop solutions. You have little interest in day-to-day, routine matters, like keeping your space clean and organized or answering emails at work. (It’s also hard for people to lie to themselves around you.) 2. It’s hard for people to lie to you because you know when something doesn’t add up. You easily spot the logical errors in any given argument or explanation. In fact, famous INTPs have been responsible for major innovations throughout history: Bill Gates, Albert Einstein, and Isaac Newton were thought to have been INTPs.Īre you one of the few people who possess this rare personality type? If you relate to most of these signs, you might be an INTP. But INTPs are brilliant individuals, known for their inventiveness and powerful intellect - and insightful observations. As a result, INTPs are often misunderstood and can easily feel alone in the world.
The INTP is one of the rarest of the 16 Myers-Briggs personality types, making up only 3-5 percent of the U.S.
