INTJs live much of their lives inside their own heads. They constantly scan their environment for new ideas and theories which they can turn into plans and structures. Sometimes, what they see and understand intuitively within themselves is more pure and "perfect" than the reality of a close personal relationship. INTJs may have a problem reconciling their reality with their fantasy.
INTJs are not naturally in tune with their own feelings, or with what other people are feeling. They also have a tendency to believe that they are always right. While their self-confidence and esteem is attractive, their lack of sensitivity to others can be a problem if it causes them to inadvertantly hurt their partner's feelings. If this is a problem for an INTJ, they should remember to sometimes let their mate be the one who is right, and to try to be aware of the emotional effect that your words have upon them. In conflict situations, INTJs need to remember to be supportive to their mate's emotional needs, rather than treating the conflict as if it is an interesting idea to analyze.
>cont Sexually, the INTJ enjoys thinking about intimacy, and about ways to perfect it. In positive relationships, their creativity and intensity shine through in this arena. In more negative relationships, they might enjoy thinking about sex more than actually doing it. They're likely to approach intimacy from a theoretical, creative perspective, rather than as an opportunity to express love and affection. Although, the INTJ who has learned the importance of these kinds of expressions to the health of their relationship is likely to be more verbally affectionate.
INTJs are highly intense, intelligent people who bring a lot of depth and insight into most major areas of their life. In terms of relationships, their greatest potential pitfall is the tendency to think about things rather than doing them, and their difficulty reconciling reality with their inner visions. INTJs are likely to be in positive, healthy relationships, because they're likely to leave relationships which aren't working for them (unless other circumstances prohibit that).
Although two well-developed individuals of any type can enjoy a healthy relationship, the INTJ's natural partner is the ENFP, or the ENTP. INTJ's dominant function of Introverted Intuition is best matched with a partner whose personality is dominated by Extraverted Intuition.
INTJs as Friends INTJs are usually difficult to get to know well, and difficult to get close to. Those who are close to the INTJ will highly value them for their ideas and knowledge. Although INTJs are generally very serious-minded people, they also have been known to enjoy letting loose and having fun, if others pull them into it. They also can be really good at telling jokes, and exhibiting a sarcastic wit with a poker face.
The INTJ is not likely to choose to spend time with people who they feel don't have anything to offer the INTJ. They especially like to spend time with other Intuitive Thinkers, and also usually enjoy the company of Intuitive Feelers. These personality types love to theorize and speculate about ideas, and so can usually relate well to the INTJ, who loves to analyze ideas.
Many INTJs believe that they are always right. In some INTJs, this belief is quite obvious, while in others it is more subtle. Some people may have a difficult time accepting what they see as a "superior attitude" or "snobbery". Not to imply that INTJs are snobbish, just that some people with strong Feeling preferences may perceive them that way. And some individuals simply have no interest in the theoretical pursuits which the INTJ enjoys.
I am INTJ and I say stop samefagging and stop giving a shit about these stupid ass personality tests
David Green
INTJ here.
The Myers-Briggs personality types is just a modern recreation of horoscopes. It's best not to read too much into it. There may be more insight in regards to specific habits or trends you are prone to falling into, and in that regard it has more practical use, but ultimately it is not scientifically supported in any meaningful way.
Matthew Scott
The characteristics pretty accurately describes the autism people here have desu
Xavier Parker
So does 90% of the characteristics of the other personalities, just as with this one. Snake oil
Jacob Thomas
>He thinks a personality test accurately describes someone's personality.
You're falling into the same trap that makes people believe in horoscopes. You are recalling the hits and ignoring the misses. The broadness of the types is meant to capture most people in it.
Angel Turner
INTJ sounds like the shitty version of ENTP
Chase Cox
>He actually likes socializing.
I see you enjoy being an inferior existence.
Jonathan Carter
What's with all the INTJ shit on Jow Forums?

>the INTJ's natural partner is the ENFP This is completely accurate, look for your own bright bubbly champaign girl/boy user
>their greatest potential pitfall is the tendency to think about things rather than doing them, and their difficulty reconciling reality with their inner visions WEW Hammer, meet nail.
Wow you faggots should discuss your horoscopes too while we're you're at it.

I got intj I don't believe it
Joseph Martin
Like many others have already pointed out. That personality test is a bunch of bullshit. I also scored INTJ. Apparently we have a huge gathering of a group of people that makes up "less than 2% of the population" here on fit. Or maybe it's just bullshit. Take a real personality test that measures things like disagree-ability and such.
ENTPs are unproductive losers desu. INTJs and ENTPs aren't even comparable, but it's usually ENTPs who want to put themselves in the spotlight when no one else gives a shit about their obnoxious existence.
Ryder Harris
Being a male ENFP if fucking difficult, I have almost exclusively female friends, most men seem emotionally illiterate and alienated.
I have intuitive intelligence, but suck at STEM, verbal IQ is high and temperament is naturally 'up'.

I take the blame for mistaken actions but in general I am always right in disagreements. Also I haven’t been in a relationship shiner I was 17, which I unknowingly memed up because of the reasons you stated
