Recently found out I’m a 5w6 sp/sx, and it seems to align pretty well with my MBTI results.
Let's see if certain combinations cluster together in similar patterns.
Drop yours:
Curious whether INTJs tend to be more selective, detached, relationship-focused, experimental.
Men and women both welcome if comfortable sharing.
INTJ women are rare, does that change the type of men they tend to prefer?
I want to know the traits that actually matter long-term vs what people think matters.
Men and women can answer interested in different perspectives.
I’m usually very composed and don’t experience much emotional fluctuation day-to-day, even during objectively serious situations. I’d describe it more as a stable, “content” baseline.
I assume most people here are like that?
What’s interesting is that occasionally a song will completely bypass that state.
Today it was Life for Rent by Dido not even close to what I listen to, and it triggered a sudden, intense internal emotional response.
Externally nothing changes, but internally it feels like a surge of emotions that comes out of nowhere, even my heart beat is rising.
It doesn’t feel random though more like something already there being accessed directly.
So does this happen to anyone else? Or am I a feeler after all? 😄
I would argue that the INTJ personality type is extremely masculine.
Traits I tpically associate with INTJs are independence, high ambition, lack of emotional expression, rationality, analytical nature, curiosity, cynical perspectives, intellectuality, insensitivity, arrogance, and rebellion, self-sufficiency, low need for validation, strategic thinking, long-term focus, and an almost instinctive resistance to being controlled or influenced.
At the same time, traditional attraction patterns suggest many men are drawn to warmth, expressiveness, and emotional openness.
How does it play out for you in the real world?
I’m not stereotypical in my ideas or how I see the world, but I am when it comes to women.
I like feminine, conventionally attractive women.
Curious if other INTJ men are the same or if your preferences are different in practice vs theory.
Do any of you actually like disagreeable women?
