The funny thing about seeming judgmental is that we (or at least me) are some of the LEAST judgmental because we naturally seek and understand all angles of everything. The lack of emotionality appears cold and the deer in headlights stare appears oppositional, when it’s actually just our default look when being attentive and absorbing information.
Yeah. There's a difference between being "judgmental" in terms of weighing the pros and cons of any given scenario vs being judgmental in the sense of moral condemnation
@@haijin7484 There is a criticism, and there is a straight up condemning of someone with no sense of good discernment. You can rightly look at someone and conclude something bad about them. But that doesn't mean that you should condemn them completely since most wrong is the result of ignorance. I would even say all wrong is a sense of ignorance, but not everyone has the capabilities or even desire to get rid of their ignorance.
I’m an INTP woman married to an INTP fellow. I can say this about my INTP relationship - our love language isn’t verbal. It’s subtle but very deep. We never talk about our feelings but we are constantly aware of each other and make sure to give the other person a slap on the rear end or something. Grand gestures are lost in translation.
Hey fellow INTPs. If there's one thing i've learned over the past 10 years since discovering I was an INTP it's that emotions, yes emotions, are the single most important quality to understand and master if you want to get ahead and be successful in life, feel fulfilled, and have good relationships with others. Emotions are our weakness. If we can learn to accept human emotions and value them with greater importance, it will only make you a better person.
I've been learning a lot about emotional intelligence over the last few years thanks to my partner. Hasent been advantageous to me in the slightest at this point but it's nice to learn things.
As a fellow INTP, you don't realize that just by saying that we don't have emotions doesn't mean we don't?!? Or that you do care about others feelings many times to the extent of more than your own and that something is very off from what thie video is saying and reality? As a fellow INTP do you really find what this video is saying to be very accurate at all?!?
I'm a INTP-T, I spend a lot of time alone researching and learning by myself. Schedules are definitely not something I enjoy. I get really bored of the same schedule over and over again, which was actually the hardest part about college. The school work was easy, showing up to the same classes at the same time everyday was the hard part for me. I do try my best not to be overly domineering in a group setting, but often end up being very involved as I usually end up being the idea guy. I often end up making friends with other INTP people as I can relate to them and have more interesting discussions. The outcast thing is true, I can get along with pretty much anyone in a social setting, but I rarely end up actually being friends with them over time.
@@NRGY I find writing comments is a good way for me to formulate my thoughts on an interesting video and keep the information stuck in my head better since I have to understand the material to talk about it.
As I’ve aged, I’ve learned to value feelings. It’s actually easier to pick up on others feelings than my own but I’m learning. I have to admit, I like it better now. I’m still INTP-A but I’ve learned to integrate emotions more than before.
thats heresy...emotions by themselfs have they are just one varible if a would be better than b but a would make me really unhappy than it has to be a unless its better to be unhappy wich is often the case taking emotions into acount=logik letting youself be rulde by emotions = heresy feelings must not interfere with objectiv truth...unless in love and frendship there its is debateble to some degree
Same here. Although I still rely on rationality and logic for most situations, I have become aware that there are times when that is not appropriate to use.
INTP-A. Never thought of myself as intimidating at all. I also don't think of myself as judgemental, but I can understand why people feel that way. It just seems impossible for me to keep my mouth shut when I think something is silly or irrational, and oftentimes, I just have a need to over explain things, or a need to just know more. I pretty much love everybody, and I just want to really understand what they're "feeling." It's been tough for me to relate to people over the years, though. I also suck at reaching out and keeping track of people, which makes it seem like I don't care. I do. I just always have so much on my damn mind. It can be overwhelming.
I also agree that we don't mean any harm, we love everyone, I mean almost everyone. People always find me as cold and blunt. As an INTP-A and also a sagatarious, I'm brutally honest to people, but whenever I do that people always feel that I'm attacking them, well I don’t, I just try to make them feel good. I'm having a tough time with my friends, they think I don’t care at all. It’s hard sometimes, sometimes I feel something is broken inside of me. I can't blame people for that too, It's unusual behaviours, I get it. But we are one of the most supportive people that they can get. We are just stuck inside our head and thinking all the time.
judgemental / don't care about your feelings is an extremely poor way of describing anyone who fits intp. So much so that this video is actually a little damaging. If you're going to explain it, explain it more deeply.
Error: "Or you have a feeling you are an INTP yourself" An INTP will not base an understanding of their personality type on "feeling". By this point, most if not all INTP's listening KNOW they are an INTP, and that conclusion is based on logic, and exhaustive scrutiny.
yeah, i've gotten intp-t in every mbti test i've done yet I still doubt if I'm an intp... i think I try not to make some subconscious bias because I want to believe I'm an intp but I won't rest until I know it's not because I feel like one but because the answer is based on logic and facts.
I suffered 10yrs of trying to understand and be understood. I've finished my experiment with being able to understand other personality types and realising they either ruled by feelings or dont go deep enough into things that actually affect them. Ive also received their projections and concluded that to protect my peace, I must charge for my time. That way if they start annoying me, it is worth it.
I believe this is a surface level of the understanding of ITNP emotionality. Makes it sound as unfeeling robots. This is not the case. They (we) do have feelings. We just try to process them through thought to understand them better, and pick the best course of action. This takes time. So it is understandable why other people might the wrong idea about what is actually going on.
I say exactly the same thing to my wife: it’s not that I don’t feel or am uncaring. I actually do feel emotions very intensely, but I don’t like ceding my brain’s control to the messiness of my emotions. I process and relate to them in a rational way, analyse the reasons for those feelings in order to try and understand them better, and everything is always parsed (and passed) through the rational part of my brain first before I’ll allow myself to indulge that feeling (or not). I’ve a deep distrust of unbridled passion or enthusiasm, whether in myself or in others, as I think one’s emotions need to be guided by critical reason and not the other way round: passion that is not given structure, or isn’t guided by logic, can become a very dangerous thing indeed.
Thise people are our natural enemy, we INTP put emotions on hold, ignore and analyze to have use for them or understand, basically giving them very low priority over our immediate actions, those type of people act on their emotions and let them take the reins and go with it, no questions asked, is insane.
The heat we experience from the sun actually initially takes the form of light. The heat from the surface of the sun does not make it to earth. That heat dissipates into the near unlimited and extremely cold space. The light from the sun which reaches earth, which penetrates to the surface of earth, some will be absorbed and heat will be radiated back outwards into the atmosphere. Then the water moisture and greenhouse gases will absorb and refract back the heat; warming the earth.
As an INTP I really do relate to a lot of this. I don’t know if I would call myself smart, I just observe what I observe. I have to say, my lack of emotions is not real. I show a lot of emotion. That being said I can click and just not at all care and I can turn it off. I think what helped was smoking weed. It helped me feel things I’d never felt before and think hypothetically about other peoples opinions and try n get into their shoes and it helped me alot with my relationships.
weed some states have smoking weed legal, only 5 though out of the 50, so maybe you smoked weed in calafornia, alaska, new mexico, colorrado, wyoming and if your not in those states and your smoking weed, then i kinda have to report that
Oh yeah, did a lot of drugs to help me with those things, was weed addict for years. but recently stopped.. Ketamine is my pick by the way! and i have a strong rules basically for using drugs. in my opinion you can use every drug on you're mind unti you have a logic and safe approach to all of this! Ketamine gave me to think like i never thought before.. as well as LSD by the way. but K is more appealing. and short lasting.. but its another story! Not legal, but who cares.. i do what i want to do with my body. i don't care about others. and i want to see the human who will told me not to do this since its my body and im not selling anything to anyone. fuck them.
It’s ironic. I learned I was intimidating but it was hard to believe. I guess that’s the result of why I get targeted sometimes. I like to be unattached in situations so that I can have the freedom to not build a negative connection with anyone. It’s not necessarily for individual expression but that could be a cooling treat. It’s motivating to revisit videos like this. It saves me the trouble of speaking too highly of myself.
It was such a shock the first time someone told me "you're just so gd intimidating" I didn't even know how to respond. I told her I weigh like 150lbs and no one should be intimidated by my me because I hate violence. But she said everybody knows that but they're still intimidated. I felt kinda bad 😂
am INTP female. I don't like to talk to anybody and most people just seem to have no common sense or is pretty stupid. They complain and care about the most trivial meaningless things like, hairstyle or someone said something they don't like and it hurts their feelings.
Life happens when you realize that you dont care about others feelings, but sometimes you need others to care about your own, and so you must care about theirs. If only a little. This acceptance will open a whole new world for you, and it will be an emotional experience.
One time on a summer camp there was a problem on a gas pump that was meant to heat water for everyone. Story short, the thing caught on fire while the ladies were taking a bath. I was the only who think it logically so I told a friend of mine who is very athletic to put some water on a blanket and cover the thing until the fire went off, I directed ladie out of the dorms and gave instructions to most people in the middle of the chaos. Everything ended well, pump was changed and all that stuff, but a friend of mine who mayor's in psychology at the time said, "wow for a short little guy you took it like a champ" (I am like 5'3 xD) I explained everything to her and see replied "you must be intp" So here I am looking why she said that and figuring this whole Myers Briggs thing out with lots of research, I am still not convinced but it is pretty cool too know that other people can isolate or ignore emotions like intps hehe.
3 tests: 2=INTJ, most recent=INTP, AvPD. I am not sure if they are inseparable. Hindsight is always 20/20. What I did not understand and no one clued me in on are the consequences. Your/my tendencies to rather be alone isolate us. Is that not what we had in mind. The problem (at least for me) is that I did not learn all the social communication rituals most people learn like they learn their 'milk' language. The longer it goes on, intimidating becomes dislike, your social networks are never built which kills your career, you have fewer and fewer friends until you end up like me: no friends, 2 daughters who do not talk to me and I do not talk to them, same for 1 sister. If you are lucky, you/me find a partner who is stubborn enough to put up with your b.s. because, for some unknown reason, she can see how much you want to love someone and how much you want to give. But they are few and far between and they die. One day you/me realize how much loneliness hurts.
Couldn't agree. My path has been kind of opposite, loneliness started hurting but I learned to be colder and more distant, embracing it. Whoever dislikes this is fine away from my side.
Being an intp, we are the opposite of intimidating. We are just not approachable. But when it comes to arguments, well we aren’t too bad at those but entp’s are better at that.
this sums it up pretty well I think. Definitely agree with the section about being the expert in someone else's field. I often just seem to know everything and that's not because I'm trying to impress, but rather I just absorb knowledge like nobody else and have a lot to contribute to a conversation
i'm a male INTP but i can't relate to the genius part, i don't even know what 8x7 is and any simple +, -, *, /. a 17yo , 1st year college in next school start and a course of BSCS {Computer Science} like WTF. good luck to myself.
Haha! I actually got called a witch once by a colleague because I could see the company was going to fail after it got sold. I'm definitely an INTP (I've done the M-B survey several times) but I do care about people's feelings and I'm not judgemental. All my life people have confided in me, telling me dark secrets about themselves they'd never shared with anyone before, so I don't think I'm intimidating. In fact, I get hugged far more than I request it! But I got used to it, and sometimes I even enjoy it. 😊
Interesting- I’d say INTP’s aren’t as intimidating as an ENTP or ENTJ and they also don’t dismiss others feelings. We may not understand them, but I don’t think we dismiss them.
I can't agree more about the knowledge part on the end. I can't say nothing else than that I love it. I know shit I don't even know by using logic, things I've never even heard about before being asked about it.
My brother is an INTJ and retested after a few years into an INTP. He’s athletic, solitary, not afraid to voice his own opinion, extremely intelligent, but yeah doesn’t really care about feelings especially if it’s someone he doesn’t care about. He’s popular though because he’s gorgeous. I remember girls gushing on him not knowing we were related. But he’s also my best friend and very authentic. I but my gosh he can get very chatty and sometimes he burns my social battery out. He can also be quite sweet and quirky too if he likes you. It’s just a question of opening up to the correct person I think. It’s just difficult to find a partner for INTPs and other sapiosexuals as lowering our standards won’t help us a bit. And some people might think that heated discussions feel like a personal attack, when in reality it’s something enjoyable. It’s quite difficult to find someone who can go toe to toe with you right? 😂 cheers to us all. My new beau is also an INTP gosh now if he could just avoid being off topic that would be perfect. 😊
Guys, this whole video is a generalization, ofc there are different INTPs out there. Each person’s experience molds them so some of the facts stated here are true and false at the same time. True because they apply in general and false vecause they don’t apply to every one. I myself for example I’m very good on the emotional aspect, but it took me years of therapy to learn that, so there are INTPs there with a high emotional intelligence as well.
That’s right… I’ve learnt that dumping all my thoughts about the world around us tends to rock others worlds…makes them feel uneasy… or maybe thinks I’m crazy to think the concepts and ideas that I have.
AI is great at guessing an INTP's next move. We are creatures of comfort and like anyone else we still go through cycles, they may be longer and more erratic but they are there none the less. I actually find it disconcerting that the INTP type can so accurately describe who I am down to my deepest insecurities when I don't let anyone know these things and don't even like facing them myself.
I’ve taken the test several times and I’ve came off as an intp. Every single time. It describes me throughly. I’ve always thought that something was wrong with me for not acclimating to societal norms. However, I don’t feel like that anymore. I love how my brain works.
As being an INTP myself is that we are emotional spunges, we need to detach emotions specially if we are empath INTP. When we use our detachment ability it makes us seem as we are cold and that is because it's our way to survive. I can alter negative energy around people and that is because i happen to be a Heyoka INTP, it's like having a switch off/on button so we can use that switch whenever we choose. This can confuse people so that they aren't able to read through us that easily, so when you see an INTP making a desition it isn't to drive anyone mad it can depend on in what kind of mood the INTP is in. They are very similar to INFJ because they can also tap into others feelings even if they use more logical thinking. For example we are also good at taking emotions as well as we can filter emotions and that is also a huge strength as being a Heyoka empath. Think of a library with tousands of books, there will be very hard to find that book an INTP person didn't already go through. As they go forward their detach and attachment ability to that specific area is very cool because they do it without even trying.
INTP here. No offense, in the workplace I try to make everyone's life as easy as possible and if I see someone making life difficult for me or anyone else I really get mad about it. Why do we get mad? Why does it feel like I'm so invested in it? Because I'm fucking lazy! I created a system that makes everything easy for everyone and all you had to do is listen to me, but no you fucked it all up! You're the asshole not me. This being said, I rarely get mad at my subordinates or co-workers, I get mad at my boss and my managers. You need a guy to chew out a manager and make him feel like a worthless idiot? Well, that will be me. I'll be the first to stick my neck out on the line in order to make things the way they need to be. Fair for everyone. About being intimidating. I rarely get this way toward anyone, unless they've pushed every nerve in my body over and over again. At that point, yeah, If I feel like you're trying to manipulate me, gaslight me, or try to treat me less than human, then don't be surprised if the police show up and I'm in handcuffs.
Is anybody intimidated by my dad or by me? We are INTP. I don't think so. I don't say we have no annoying qualities, but intimidating? Quite the contrary.
Well, people have to actually meet you to find you intimidating. Since both you and your Dad seem to be INTPs, it's likely that between of you, you know 8 people.
@@Pyeredere813-il4jw Undoubtedly, I agree. Though as an INTP myself, getting to know people like that is quite the effort and unfortunately not worth it in 90% of the cases. But as the great philosopher Ron Swanson said, 'if you don't believe in true love, what's the point in living?'.
I'm INTP. Elon Musk is INTJ, not INTP. :/ Also, it's not judgemental. We just have to process stuff. Which my wife had figured out before. Also, Our Fe, horribly developed (just like an ISTP, as I married an ISTP, so yeah, it worked for us...) until we hit middle age. My best friend is an ENTJ, and he's just as smart as I am. My wife is also up there. She was Valedictorian of our high school class, so yeah. :p I just lacked follow through, college drop out. But anybody talking to me would think I was a college graduate, if not post graduate.
I love watching crime stories and trying to figure it out by absorbing all the evidence. It is all so soothing to me. until....they give air time to some emotional person who explains how terrible the situation was for them. I absolutely lose interest at the point and even skip through that whole emotion part. It always feels so fake to me. Many times I feel they use emotions as a way to manipulate people. Can't stand emotional people when trying to figure something out. P.s: Sorry if you are an emotional person. Don't mean to offend any of you. Just that when trying to solve issues...emotions seem like a waste of time to me.
I've never seen myself as intimidating either, I genuinely go out of my way to try and make people feel comfortable. That said, I had a really bad relationship with my mother's ex and after they split, my mother told me specifically that her ex found me intimidating and that was a large part of the friction. Didn't understand it at the time and still don't. My mother's ex was a very emotional and domineering person and I didn't respond to that the way that I was expected to. I guess that makes me intimidating?
@@idlawyl9996Lol.😂 My Intp son once something similar regarding the female gender. When he was in middle school he said girls and women of all kinds scared him because all their decisions and communication seem to be driven completely by emotion. He asked me how women can live like that and survive? 😂😆🤦🏻♀️ I cracked up when he said that but then I can’t deny there isn’t some truth to it. He’s older now and has obviously studied the female gender (as an intp is want to do as its in his nature to study everything) and had a couple girlfriends since then but his insights never cease to amaze me.
I don't like you stroking my ego that much. My emotions are vast and deep and most people don't have the bandwidth to accept it in everyday conversations and situations so I save us both the trouble of dealing with it.
The Lack of compassion angle in this is way overexaggerated. INTP's are great listeners, and have no problem putting someone's needs above our own. There isn't a need to make the conversation more 'interesting' or more about us, like some other types. The problem comes from a tendency for our response to be trying to provide a possible solution, or using a personal experience to describe how we handled it rationally - when some people just want you to be on their side and share their emotions with them - which just isn't natural to INTP's.
Well said. INTPs are good listeners because they're genuinely curious about things, and don't feel the need to be the center of attention. All people (unless they're sociopaths) have compassion. Each personality type finds different aspects of compassion that come more and less naturally to them
I think that INTPs ARE great listeners and they generally care about how other people feel. I also think that INTPs have a tendency to view those feelings as problems to solve and so can get caught up in the 'solution' side of other people's grievances and it can sometimes be hard for us to JUST listen. We WANT to help and just listening can often feel like we're only helping in a superficial way, rather than actually fixing the problem. I think that's where a lot of that perspective comes from; people wanting INTPs to just listen to their grievances and not try to help them fix the underlying problem and INTPs can often struggle to do that.
Actually, I’ve found smiling seems to help in most situations, but it also backfires in making people think you’re joking around when your being serious. I usually try to always smile, as it is a coping mechanism that works to smooth over anything I say. Sometimes, I think I’m smiling, but I’m not. LoL!
So intimidating that most of us don’t even go outside because everyone will run away in fear. Totally not just too lazy to go out for a jog or something.
I could be either an Entp or Intp . I would say : What if ? Nothing is written in stone . I may not give you a straight answer . Depends on what the question is . Especially when everything is so subjective today . I do study Astrology , especially Vedic Astrology which is the real science of Astrology . The Moon is the Mind . Not the Sun which is the Ego - Soul . My Moon happens to be in Virgo ♍ . Hasta Nakshatra - Hand or fist .
When you say "genius inventors" Elon Musk is certainly not an example of that. He is a stupendously wealthy person of bad character, developmentally stuck in his teens. Not even remotely a genius.
False, INTPs are more to favor your feelings over INFPs because we have Fe inferior which is extroverted feelings which is caring for the feelings of others but since it is inferior it has to be practiced and doesn’t come naturally. While INFPs have Fi which is introverted feeling which means they only care for their own feelings unless you’re in their Fi box.
i took the myers brigg test twice and got the genius one first and the logician second, from my experience, i have many “friends” but i dont consider them such. Many people are attracted to me for some reason even though i do everything in my power to not be friends with them. For example, while i was in HS (2 years ago) I would always sit alone and just be myself people would be assigned to my table and instantly i could tell they liked my vibe because they were talking a lot. I consider myself an introvert because of the fact that i dont like people, id rather be at home doing nothing than have to go to a social event and interact with people I dont want to be with. Its not the fact that i hate them in particular, i just hate interaction. I would consider myself socially awkward and shy, but people tell me that i seem very friendly and extroverted (its just me playing nice) I harbor no hate for these people. I dont seem to even understand myself sometimes and have been called intimidating, aloof, lethargic, and sometimes even solemn. One thing about me is that i try to follow a set of morally superior rules upon everyone including myself, if someone doesnt meet up to my expectations of being a “morally good” person i immediately start hating being around that person because they are selfish and ignorant. Believe me, i study a lot and know what i am saying. Most peeps can be categorized into 2 groups in my world, selfish n non selfish. A morally good person would be a non selfish person and someone who portrays that in their every day life. I study my surroundings and seeing the same people everyday in HS naturally me curious and i would study them and their behavior too. There are very distinct and clear indicators in the way a person talks, moves, dresses, acts, etc you just have to be observant and open minded as to what youre seeing. Idk thats just a small dive into how i think and would like to see what others have to say ❤❤
You explained INTPS by the 4 letters not the cognitive functions. This is not a good explanation of the type. It really puts and makes it look like INTPs are just robots of intelligence. And saying we don't care about others feelings is sooooo misleading since it's heavily the opposite. The we don't care about emotions, is a huge concern. I feel that any INTP or any type can learn to exept their own emotions and others. This video is basically saying all INTP men don't have emotions which is completely untrue. INTPS "we think emotions hinder us in the world." My experience has showed me how emotions are useful and very important. This is basically saying that we just hate emotion which is untrue. After the "INTP men can come across as one of the most judgemental people in the world" this is basically type slander at this point. I hate this video now. The video is making INTPS seem that we are just super smart and we are nothing else. The last point I just a stereotype. Anyone could have info on a topic. Also all types use all 8 functions and a INTP is never exactly the same as another INTP. Yes they can have similar qualities, but this video is comparing every INTP to Einstein. Not every INTP is an Einstine. Just don't trust bold claims in videos like this. -INTP
MY friends told me about get more friends and a relationship, I tried a couple of different activities to be more outside but nobody get close to me xD I recently ask a friend about why people do not get a talk with me and I always should be the one to make the fisrt step and she said I look like I will overwhelm if listen something that I know better :v
Introverted means Introspective. As in you think before you act. Unlike Extrospection, which only learns from external sources and engagements. Introverts have an easier time responding, not because they don't want to, built because they simply have difficulty understanding how to engage. Some introverts give up easily, but the learning and competitive types are always trying. Introverted does not actually mean they get drained or need alone time. That might be the case for NF/St types, but definitely not NT/SF types.
INTP should be a protected minority (in an inward sense), since all the characteristics this video mentions could make it harder to relate, be mistaken as unprofessional, uncommunicative, tardy for work, unmotivated, not a team worker, not a good follower of authority, etc. Like honestly whenever you're filling those job screenings there should be a checkbox for INTP personality. I've seen a term called "neurodivergent", but that sounds like too much. INTP is "just" a personality type.
I think this satisfaction part with everyone else applies to INTPs with low eq because I would never tell someone that it’s not good enough if they are proud of it, as the effort is what matters
To be honest I think this might be exaggerated a bit for the knowledge bit. Most of it is on point but I think we can also easily overcome these issues with others with introspection.
I’m questioning whether I really am an INTP cause I’m not that harsh of a person and I feel like my intelligence is modest. I’m impatient sure but I’m pretty laid back most of the time and appreciate real effort I don’t expect perfection from anyone because I’m not (even though I procrastinate trying to perfect an idea myself) I like to make moves with the minimal amount of failure possible if I care about it. Can anyone relate to this?
We value perspective thus jeopardizing the blankets of convention others dance with over their heads. I've been told I'm intimidating by narcissists moreso than unassuming unintentioned people.
If I had a girlfriend who had a bad day at work my response would be something like, you chose to follow the societal "normal" life path so that's what you got. Why are you upset at experiencing exactly what that path you took is always going to give you? Yes I know you want me to hug you, tell you it's all going to be okay, or maybe you want me to talk trash about your boss who yelled at you and say that b*tch! But I'm not going to, cause that's nonsense. Your feelings are your business, not mine. How you feel is not my responsibility.
Idk why this video has to specify “men” could just as easily have been a gender neutral video about both intp women and men. Which one of these traits would you consider not applicable to intp women?
@@detraxop6680 nope. even then no. Even if she has a weapon not so much. You can beat her up and take it from her Women are only intimidating if they have access to you while you're fast asleep
As an INFP I can say, that me being the typical "panicked deer" due to social anxiety, I actually feel very comfortable around INTPs. Just because they are logical thinkers, doesnt mean they are judgemental in nature.. quite the opposite.
Really if people gave intps a chance, they would realize most have good intentions and want to help. I do find it interesting how intps and and infps get along and can often be friends when one is often seen as or stereotyped as emotionally cold or aloof while the other is perceived to have hypersensitivity (hsp) as an Fi introverted feelings user. You would think such a pairing would have difficulty getting along but it’s often quite the opposite. In fact combined together they often make a great creative team.
About the INTP I know...he is a collector of trivial bits of data about thousands of subjects. Google was invented for people like him eg give me a quick brief answer then on to the next subject. In dating he is a bower bird "oh look at this shiny gum wrapper I found do you know how they get the shiny part to adhere to the paper part? Here's how." " See. this string it looks like the threads they use in Guatemala for huipiles....those are woven on a backstrap loom, first you find some staight tree branches then you whittle..." That is how he attracted me Im an INTJ psychology professor and my subject is what I know deeply after a lifetime of study, the literature etc. Someone asked me can a person have a personanlity change due to a brain injury. I mentioned the case of a railroad worker whose personality changed after an accident...famous in the literature,but something few laymen would be familiar with as it is historic. He piped up "Phineas Gage."..I was shocked. I asked if he studied psychology he said a course in college...but that case isnt discussed. He had read about it . THEN he had my attention. Actually he knows next to nothing about psychology and has no passion for the subject. In fact he has no passion for any subject except briefly then it is on to something else that glitters in the distance or on Google. He has a masters in computer engineering and had a good career in the field. He is 83 and of high intelligence it is just scattered over multiple thousands of bits of unrelated data . So an in depth disussion in your own field uncovers that quite readily. Still, his never ending curiosity is charming and endearing amd admirable. On the emotional level he has great difficulty. He has NO vocabulary for feelings...he feels them he says but he cannot describe them even when talking about relationships in his chidhood family. There is no nuance in describing anything related to emotion. And though he has been married twice for long periods of time he is not at home in his own body or expressive with it . He cant feel in tune with or read someone else's if he cant do that with his own! People do like him because he doesnt seem judgmental....he seems open and curious. He lets others talk being an introvert and has quite a cadre of people who care deeply about him and his welfare. INTPs are indeed unique.
I'm an intp plus I have Asperger's autism so for me showing emotions is almost non existent. I can smile but thats about it.. And when I do get emotional I can rationalize them away in seconds.
Any Myer briggs specialist out here I feel like im an INTP-A online but and INTP-T offline/reality. I remember reading somewhere that introverts have a strong inner foundation but a mediocore outter one and i find the mix of the two INTP types to be both true for me
Seems like in a lot of the scenarios the INTP is a manager type person, in real life I have 0% interest in being other people’s boss and just want freedom to explore different topics with the least amount of meetings and such.
@@sylviaowega3839 INTP women can be just as intellectually intimidating if not more so than men (for the fact that running into an INTP woman in the wild is a rarity and would throw most people for a loop) IF they are confident and sure of their mental capabilities. Intp men have a significant struggle with developing these qualities. It seems that it would be a greater obstacle for women - generally speaking, to overcome given that they are not falling in line with the socially accepted, typical female Fe/Fi behavior. It's expected for men to be more logically or analytically inclined but for women, not so much.
That whole thing about “how much heat “iminates” (which isn’t even a real word by the way) from the sun part is so incorrect I don’t know where to start.
Thank you for saying it 😅 … INTP men are among the most bullied type, so it doesn’t make sense whatsoever to call them intimidating. This is plain manipulative and misleading content in my opinion.
We care about others emotions but allowing another persons feelings to determine a proper course of action is illogical and although it might make them feel better in the moment we are thinking of how all concerned will feel when they're emotion based plan fails.
As a INTP male I apologize to ever one I know.................................................................... ................................................................................................................................................ for nothing!!!!!!!!!! stop being so emotional!!!!!!!
The whole bit about group setting and getting into arguments over the quality of someone elses work seems much more INTJ to me. This is not something I do, and i am amicable to others skills, so long as they are giving accurate results.
The funny thing about seeming judgmental is that we (or at least me) are some of the LEAST judgmental because we naturally seek and understand all angles of everything. The lack of emotionality appears cold and the deer in headlights stare appears oppositional, when it’s actually just our default look when being attentive and absorbing information.
Yeah.

I would even say all wrong is a sense of ignorance, but not everyone has the capabilities or even desire to get rid of their ignorance.
I’m an INTP woman married to an INTP fellow. I can say this about my INTP relationship - our love language isn’t verbal. It’s subtle but very deep. We never talk about our feelings but we are constantly aware of each other and make sure to give the other person a slap on the rear end or something. Grand gestures are lost in translation.

My little brain twisted your words and imagined you slapping each other's backside nonstop like some drum language
Hey fellow INTPs. If there's one thing i've learned over the past 10 years since discovering I was an INTP it's that emotions, yes emotions, are the single most important quality to understand and master if you want to get ahead and be successful in life, feel fulfilled, and have good relationships with others. Emotions are our weakness. If we can learn to accept human emotions and value them with greater importance, it will only make you a better person.
I've been learning a lot about emotional intelligence over the last few years thanks to my partner. Hasent been advantageous to me in the slightest at this point but it's nice to learn things.
As a fellow INTP, you don't realize that just by saying that we don't have emotions doesn't mean we don't?!?
Or that you do care about others feelings many times to the extent of more than your own and that something is very off from what thie video is saying and reality?
As a fellow INTP do you really find what this video is saying to be very accurate at all?!?
I'm a INTP-T, I spend a lot of time alone researching and learning by myself. Schedules are definitely not something I enjoy. I get really bored of the same schedule over and over again, which was actually the hardest part about college. The school work was easy, showing up to the same classes at the same time everyday was the hard part for me. I do try my best not to be overly domineering in a group setting, but often end up being very involved as I usually end up being the idea guy. I often end up making friends with other INTP people as I can relate to them and have more interesting discussions. The outcast thing is true, I can get along with pretty much anyone in a social setting, but I rarely end up actually being friends with them over time.

@@NRGY I find writing comments is a good way for me to formulate my thoughts on an interesting video and keep the information stuck in my head better since I have to understand the material to talk about it.
As I’ve aged, I’ve learned to value feelings. It’s actually easier to pick up on others feelings than my own but I’m learning. I have to admit, I like it better now. I’m still INTP-A but I’ve learned to integrate emotions more than before.
thats heresy...emotions by themselfs have they are just one varible
if a would be better than b but a would make me really unhappy than it has to be a unless its better to be unhappy wich is often the case
taking emotions into acount=logik
letting youself be rulde by emotions = heresy
feelings must not interfere with objectiv truth...unless in love and frendship there its is debateble to some degree
Same here. Although I still rely on rationality and logic for most situations, I have become aware that there are times when that is not appropriate to use.
INTP-A. Never thought of myself as intimidating at all. I also don't think of myself as judgemental, but I can understand why people feel that way. It just seems impossible for me to keep my mouth shut when I think something is silly or irrational, and oftentimes, I just have a need to over explain things, or a need to just know more. I pretty much love everybody, and I just want to really understand what they're "feeling."
It's been tough for me to relate to people over the years, though. I also suck at reaching out and keeping track of people, which makes it seem like I don't care. I do. I just always have so much on my damn mind. It can be overwhelming.
Understandable
I also agree that we don't mean any harm, we love everyone, I mean almost everyone. People always find me as cold and blunt. As an INTP-A and also a sagatarious, I'm brutally honest to people, but whenever I do that people always feel that I'm attacking them, well I don’t, I just try to make them feel good. I'm having a tough time with my friends, they think I don’t care at all. It’s hard sometimes, sometimes I feel something is broken inside of me.
I can't blame people for that too, It's unusual behaviours, I get it. But we are one of the most supportive people that they can get. We are just stuck inside our head and thinking all the time.
@@necropolis6052 hypocrisy and vice generate emotional flaws in people
judgemental / don't care about your feelings is an extremely poor way of describing anyone who fits intp.
So much so that this video is actually a little damaging.
If you're going to explain it, explain it more deeply.
INTP-A as well
Error: "Or you have a feeling you are an INTP yourself" An INTP will not base an understanding of their personality type on "feeling". By this point, most if not all INTP's listening KNOW they are an INTP, and that conclusion is based on logic, and exhaustive scrutiny.
yeah, i've gotten intp-t in every mbti test i've done yet I still doubt if I'm an intp... i think I try not to make some subconscious bias because I want to believe I'm an intp but I won't rest until I know it's not because I feel like one but because the answer is based on logic and facts.
Chill
Am diagnosed into-a just go and do a 1 on 1 for diagnostic 😊
I suffered 10yrs of trying to understand and be understood. I've finished my experiment with being able to understand other personality types and realising they either ruled by feelings or dont go deep enough into things that actually affect them. Ive also received their projections and concluded that to protect my peace, I must charge for my time. That way if they start annoying me, it is worth it.
I believe this is a surface level of the understanding of ITNP emotionality.
Makes it sound as unfeeling robots.
This is not the case. They (we) do have feelings. We just try to process them through thought to understand them better, and pick the best course of action. This takes time.
So it is understandable why other people might the wrong idea about what is actually going on.
I say exactly the same thing to my wife: it’s not that I don’t feel or am uncaring. I actually do feel emotions very intensely, but I don’t like ceding my brain’s control to the messiness of my emotions. I process and relate to them in a rational way, analyse the reasons for those feelings in order to try and understand them better, and everything is always parsed (and passed) through the rational part of my brain first before I’ll allow myself to indulge that feeling (or not). I’ve a deep distrust of unbridled passion or enthusiasm, whether in myself or in others, as I think one’s emotions need to be guided by critical reason and not the other way round: passion that is not given structure, or isn’t guided by logic, can become a very dangerous thing indeed.
INTP man here... I only have two friends, and the rest only contact me to ask me about something. That's my life and I like it the way it is.
Can't argue with that!
As an INTP woman, the only type of men I find intimidating are volatile and quick tempered men that are often angry
I agree as a guy, for both men and women
Do you really find them intimidating? Or just scary?
No way i've seen you on Quora too xd
@@dashphonemail i just dont like sudden shift of pace or mood 😂😂 i hate it so much
Thise people are our natural enemy, we INTP put emotions on hold, ignore and analyze to have use for them or understand, basically giving them very low priority over our immediate actions, those type of people act on their emotions and let them take the reins and go with it, no questions asked, is insane.
The heat we experience from the sun actually initially takes the form of light. The heat from the surface of the sun does not make it to earth. That heat dissipates into the near unlimited and extremely cold space. The light from the sun which reaches earth, which penetrates to the surface of earth, some will be absorbed and heat will be radiated back outwards into the atmosphere. Then the water moisture and greenhouse gases will absorb and refract back the heat; warming the earth.
As an INTP I really do relate to a lot of this. I don’t know if I would call myself smart, I just observe what I observe. I have to say, my lack of emotions is not real. I show a lot of emotion. That being said I can click and just not at all care and I can turn it off. I think what helped was smoking weed. It helped me feel things I’d never felt before and think hypothetically about other peoples opinions and try n get into their shoes and it helped me alot with my relationships.
Bro, are we sharing the same life. Real
weed some states have smoking weed legal, only 5 though out of the 50, so maybe you smoked weed in calafornia, alaska, new mexico, colorrado, wyoming and if your not in those states and your smoking weed, then i kinda have to report that
Oh yeah, did a lot of drugs to help me with those things, was weed addict for years. but recently stopped..
Ketamine is my pick by the way! and i have a strong rules basically for using drugs. in my opinion you can use every drug on you're mind unti you have a logic and safe approach to all of this!
Ketamine gave me to think like i never thought before.. as well as LSD by the way. but K is more appealing. and short lasting.. but its another story!
Not legal, but who cares.. i do what i want to do with my body. i don't care about others. and i want to see the human who will told me not to do this since its my body and im not selling anything to anyone. fuck them.

It’s ironic. I learned I was intimidating but it was hard to believe. I guess that’s the result of why I get targeted sometimes. I like to be unattached in situations so that I can have the freedom to not build a negative connection with anyone. It’s not necessarily for individual expression but that could be a cooling treat. It’s motivating to revisit videos like this. It saves me the trouble of speaking too highly of myself.
Makes sense for sure
It was such a shock the first time someone told me "you're just so gd intimidating" I didn't even know how to respond. I told her I weigh like 150lbs and no one should be intimidated by my me because I hate violence. But she said everybody knows that but they're still intimidated. I felt kinda bad 😂
am INTP female. I don't like to talk to anybody and most people just seem to have no common sense or is pretty stupid. They complain and care about the most trivial meaningless things like, hairstyle or someone said something they don't like and it hurts their feelings.
Life happens when you realize that you dont care about others feelings, but sometimes you need others to care about your own, and so you must care about theirs. If only a little. This acceptance will open a whole new world for you, and it will be an emotional experience.

One time on a summer camp there was a problem on a gas pump that was meant to heat water for everyone. Story short, the thing caught on fire while the ladies were taking a bath. I was the only who think it logically so I told a friend of mine who is very athletic to put some water on a blanket and cover the thing until the fire went off, I directed ladie out of the dorms and gave instructions to most people in the middle of the chaos. Everything ended well, pump was changed and all that stuff, but a friend of mine who mayor's in psychology at the time said, "wow for a short little guy you took it like a champ" (I am like 5'3 xD) I explained everything to her and see replied "you must be intp" So here I am looking why she said that and figuring this whole Myers Briggs thing out with lots of research, I am still not convinced but it is pretty cool too know that other people can isolate or ignore emotions like intps hehe.
3 tests: 2=INTJ, most recent=INTP, AvPD. I am not sure if they are inseparable. Hindsight is always 20/20. What I did not understand and no one clued me in on are the consequences. Your/my tendencies to rather be alone isolate us. Is that not what we had in mind. The problem (at least for me) is that I did not learn all the social communication rituals most people learn like they learn their 'milk' language. The longer it goes on, intimidating becomes dislike, your social networks are never built which kills your career, you have fewer and fewer friends until you end up like me: no friends, 2 daughters who do not talk to me and I do not talk to them, same for 1 sister. If you are lucky, you/me find a partner who is stubborn enough to put up with your b.s. because, for some unknown reason, she can see how much you want to love someone and how much you want to give. But they are few and far between and they die. One day you/me realize how much loneliness hurts.
Couldn't agree. My path has been kind of opposite, loneliness started hurting but I learned to be colder and more distant, embracing it. Whoever dislikes this is fine away from my side.
I'm an INTP.
I'm so glad that I'm not the only one in this world. Because of my society that I live, I used to think that I'm alone.
"outcasts are now the coolest kids on the block" Yeah, for all that means....they're still not even interacted with, relatively.
True
As an INTP-T, I don’t think I don’t care about how others feel. My thoughts tell me it’s illogical to not account for emotions.
Being an intp, we are the opposite of intimidating. We are just not approachable. But when it comes to arguments, well we aren’t too bad at those but entp’s are better at that.
the never satisfied trait is so relatable
this sums it up pretty well I think. Definitely agree with the section about being the expert in someone else's field. I often just seem to know everything and that's not because I'm trying to impress, but rather I just absorb knowledge like nobody else and have a lot to contribute to a conversation
i'm a male INTP but i can't relate to the genius part, i don't even know what 8x7 is and any simple +, -, *, /. a 17yo , 1st year college in next school start and a course of BSCS {Computer Science} like WTF. good luck to myself.
Haha! I actually got called a witch once by a colleague because I could see the company was going to fail after it got sold. I'm definitely an INTP (I've done the M-B survey several times) but I do care about people's feelings and I'm not judgemental. All my life people have confided in me, telling me dark secrets about themselves they'd never shared with anyone before, so I don't think I'm intimidating. In fact, I get hugged far more than I request it! But I got used to it, and sometimes I even enjoy it.
😊
I live in a world of morons
Interesting- I’d say INTP’s aren’t as intimidating as an ENTP or ENTJ and they also don’t dismiss others feelings. We may not understand them, but I don’t think we dismiss them.
how about ESTJs ? the executives, it is a literal nightmare I wish not to meet someone like that as a INFP mediator (complete opposite lol)
I don’t think ENTP or ENTJ are intimidating. When in discussions with them I find them annoying. Then I start to question how intelligent they are.
im a INTP and its relatable
I can't agree more about the knowledge part on the end. I can't say nothing else than that I love it. I know shit I don't even know by using logic, things I've never even heard about before being asked about it.
Im glad 💯
I don't know but i really find intp men kinda cute i wish i met one to marry someday
Also i am intp by the way lol
I'm an INTP dude and I always thought that "woman hate me, I repel them."
My brother is an INTJ and retested after a few years into an INTP. He’s athletic, solitary, not afraid to voice his own opinion, extremely intelligent, but yeah doesn’t really care about feelings especially if it’s someone he doesn’t care about. He’s popular though because he’s gorgeous. I remember girls gushing on him not knowing we were related.
But he’s also my best friend and very authentic. I but my gosh he can get very chatty and sometimes he burns my social battery out. He can also be quite sweet and quirky too if he likes you. It’s just a question of opening up to the correct person I think. It’s just difficult to find a partner for INTPs and other sapiosexuals as lowering our standards won’t help us a bit. And some people might think that heated discussions feel like a personal attack, when in reality it’s something enjoyable. It’s quite difficult to find someone who can go toe to toe with you right? 😂 cheers to us all. My new beau is also an INTP gosh now if he could just avoid being off topic that would be perfect. 😊
Guys, this whole video is a generalization, ofc there are different INTPs out there. Each person’s experience molds them so some of the facts stated here are true and false at the same time. True because they apply in general and false vecause they don’t apply to every one. I myself for example I’m very good on the emotional aspect, but it took me years of therapy to learn that, so there are INTPs there with a high emotional intelligence as well.
That’s right… I’ve learnt that dumping all my thoughts about the world around us tends to rock others worlds…makes them feel uneasy… or maybe thinks I’m crazy to think the concepts and ideas that I have.
Intp: they can't guess my next move if I don't even know what it is yet.
AI is great at guessing an INTP's next move. We are creatures of comfort and like anyone else we still go through cycles, they may be longer and more erratic but they are there none the less.
I actually find it disconcerting that the INTP type can so accurately describe who I am down to my deepest insecurities when I don't let anyone know these things and don't even like facing them myself.
😎
One thing no one tells your is these personality types can change as you grow or have significant experiences that alter how you think 😅
I am an INTP-T and I did not finish school, noice.
Yay.. I'm intimidating I guess lol
I’ve taken the test several times and I’ve came off as an intp. Every single time. It describes me throughly. I’ve always thought that something was wrong with me for not acclimating to societal norms. However, I don’t feel like that anymore. I love how my brain works.
As being an INTP myself is that we are emotional spunges, we need to detach emotions specially if we are empath INTP. When we use our detachment ability it makes us seem as we are cold and that is because it's our way to survive. I can alter negative energy around people and that is because i happen to be a Heyoka INTP, it's like having a switch off/on button so we can use that switch whenever we choose. This can confuse people so that they aren't able to read through us that easily, so when you see an INTP making a desition it isn't to drive anyone mad it can depend on in what kind of mood the INTP is in. They are very similar to INFJ because they can also tap into others feelings even if they use more logical thinking. For example we are also good at taking emotions as well as we can filter emotions and that is also a huge strength as being a Heyoka empath. Think of a library with tousands of books, there will be very hard to find that book an INTP person didn't already go through. As they go forward their detach and attachment ability to that specific area is very cool because they do it without even trying.
INTP here. No offense, in the workplace I try to make everyone's life as easy as possible and if I see someone making life difficult for me or anyone else I really get mad about it. Why do we get mad? Why does it feel like I'm so invested in it? Because I'm fucking lazy! I created a system that makes everything easy for everyone and all you had to do is listen to me, but no you fucked it all up! You're the asshole not me.
This being said, I rarely get mad at my subordinates or co-workers, I get mad at my boss and my managers. You need a guy to chew out a manager and make him feel like a worthless idiot? Well, that will be me. I'll be the first to stick my neck out on the line in order to make things the way they need to be. Fair for everyone.
About being intimidating. I rarely get this way toward anyone, unless they've pushed every nerve in my body over and over again. At that point, yeah, If I feel like you're trying to manipulate me, gaslight me, or try to treat me less than human, then don't be surprised if the police show up and I'm in handcuffs.
I know that as an INTP, I never get up when I run across something that I know about, because I’ll research it the moment I’m given the opportunity
Is anybody intimidated by my dad or by me? We are INTP. I don't think so. I don't say we have no annoying qualities, but intimidating? Quite the contrary.
Well, people have to actually meet you to find you intimidating. Since both you and your Dad seem to be INTPs, it's likely that between of you, you know 8 people.

Also, it's not judgemental. We just have to process stuff. Which my wife had figured out before. Also, Our Fe, horribly developed (just like an ISTP, as I married an ISTP, so yeah, it worked for us...) until we hit middle age. My best friend is an ENTJ, and he's just as smart as I am. My wife is also up there. She was Valedictorian of our high school class, so yeah. :p I just lacked follow through, college drop out. But anybody talking to me would think I was a college graduate, if not post graduate.
I love watching crime stories and trying to figure it out by absorbing all the evidence. It is all so soothing to me. until....they give air time to some emotional person who explains how terrible the situation was for them. I absolutely lose interest at the point and even skip through that whole emotion part. It always feels so fake to me. Many times I feel they use emotions as a way to manipulate people. Can't stand emotional people when trying to figure something out.
P.s: Sorry if you are an emotional person. Don't mean to offend any of you. Just that when trying to solve issues...emotions seem like a waste of time to me.
Ive never seen myself as someone intimidating 😂
Same, everyone else terrifies me and women are even worse, an entire gender of emotion driven creatures
I've never seen myself as intimidating either, I genuinely go out of my way to try and make people feel comfortable. That said, I had a really bad relationship with my mother's ex and after they split, my mother told me specifically that her ex found me intimidating and that was a large part of the friction. Didn't understand it at the time and still don't. My mother's ex was a very emotional and domineering person and I didn't respond to that the way that I was expected to. I guess that makes me intimidating?
@@idlawyl9996Lol.😂 My Intp son once something similar regarding the female gender. When he was in middle school he said girls and women of all kinds scared him because all their decisions and communication seem to be driven completely by emotion. He asked me how women can live like that and survive? 😂😆🤦🏻♀️ I cracked up when he said that but then I can’t deny there isn’t some truth to it. He’s older now and has obviously studied the female gender (as an intp is want to do as its in his nature to study everything) and had a couple girlfriends since then but his insights never cease to amaze me.
I don't like you stroking my ego that much. My emotions are vast and deep and most people don't have the bandwidth to accept it in everyday conversations and situations so I save us both the trouble of dealing with it.
The Lack of compassion angle in this is way overexaggerated. INTP's are great listeners, and have no problem putting someone's needs above our own. There isn't a need to make the conversation more 'interesting' or more about us, like some other types. The problem comes from a tendency for our response to be trying to provide a possible solution, or using a personal experience to describe how we handled it rationally - when some people just want you to be on their side and share their emotions with them - which just isn't natural to INTP's.
Well said. INTPs are good listeners because they're genuinely curious about things, and don't feel the need to be the center of attention. All people (unless they're sociopaths) have compassion. Each personality type finds different aspects of compassion that come more and less naturally to them
I think that INTPs ARE great listeners and they generally care about how other people feel. I also think that INTPs have a tendency to view those feelings as problems to solve and so can get caught up in the 'solution' side of other people's grievances and it can sometimes be hard for us to JUST listen. We WANT to help and just listening can often feel like we're only helping in a superficial way, rather than actually fixing the problem. I think that's where a lot of that perspective comes from; people wanting INTPs to just listen to their grievances and not try to help them fix the underlying problem and INTPs can often struggle to do that.
OMG it seems like you're giving me a 101 on my partner. GOOSEBUMPS
Actually, I’ve found smiling seems to help in most situations, but it also backfires in making people think you’re joking around when your being serious.

So i am intimidating(i didn't know bc i dont give a shit about how others feel around me)
False, INTPs are more to favor your feelings over INFPs because we have Fe inferior which is extroverted feelings which is caring for the feelings of others but since it is inferior it has to be practiced and doesn’t come naturally. While INFPs have Fi which is introverted feeling which means they only care for their own feelings unless you’re in their Fi box.
Truly these are traits of a great leader
i took the myers brigg test twice and got the genius one first and the logician second, from my experience, i have many “friends” but i dont consider them such. Many people are attracted to me for some reason even though i do everything in my power to not be friends with them. For example, while i was in HS (2 years ago) I would always sit alone and just be myself people would be assigned to my table and instantly i could tell they liked my vibe because they were talking a lot. I consider myself an introvert because of the fact that i dont like people, id rather be at home doing nothing than have to go to a social event and interact with people I dont want to be with. Its not the fact that i hate them in particular, i just hate interaction. I would consider myself socially awkward and shy, but people tell me that i seem very friendly and extroverted (its just me playing nice) I harbor no hate for these people. I dont seem to even understand myself sometimes and have been called intimidating, aloof, lethargic, and sometimes even solemn. One thing about me is that i try to follow a set of morally superior rules upon everyone including myself, if someone doesnt meet up to my expectations of being a “morally good” person i immediately start hating being around that person because they are selfish and ignorant. Believe me, i study a lot and know what i am saying. Most peeps can be categorized into 2 groups in my world, selfish n non selfish. A morally good person would be a non selfish person and someone who portrays that in their every day life. I study my surroundings and seeing the same people everyday in HS naturally me curious and i would study them and their behavior too. There are very distinct and clear indicators in the way a person talks, moves, dresses, acts, etc you just have to be observant and open minded as to what youre seeing. Idk thats just a small dive into how i think and would like to see what others have to say ❤❤
You explained INTPS by the 4 letters not the cognitive functions. This is not a good explanation of the type. It really puts and makes it look like INTPs are just robots of intelligence. And saying we don't care about others feelings is sooooo misleading since it's heavily the opposite. The we don't care about emotions, is a huge concern. I feel that any INTP or any type can learn to exept their own emotions and others. This video is basically saying all INTP men don't have emotions which is completely untrue. INTPS "we think emotions hinder us in the world." My experience has showed me how emotions are useful and very important. This is basically saying that we just hate emotion which is untrue. After the "INTP men can come across as one of the most judgemental people in the world" this is basically type slander at this point. I hate this video now. The video is making INTPS seem that we are just super smart and we are nothing else. The last point I just a stereotype. Anyone could have info on a topic. Also all types use all 8 functions and a INTP is never exactly the same as another INTP. Yes they can have similar qualities, but this video is comparing every INTP to Einstein. Not every INTP is an Einstine. Just don't trust bold claims in videos like this.
-INTP
MY friends told me about get more friends and a relationship, I tried a couple of different activities to be more outside but nobody get close to me xD
I recently ask a friend about why people do not get a talk with me and I always should be the one to make the fisrt step and she said I look like I will overwhelm if listen something that I know better :v
The girls in school called it "creepy" (behind my back). lol
Introverted means Introspective. As in you think before you act. Unlike Extrospection, which only learns from external sources and engagements.
Introverts have an easier time responding, not because they don't want to, built because they simply have difficulty understanding how to engage. Some introverts give up easily, but the learning and competitive types are always trying.
Introverted does not actually mean they get drained or need alone time. That might be the case for NF/St types, but definitely not NT/SF types.
INTP should be a protected minority (in an inward sense), since all the characteristics this video mentions could make it harder to relate, be mistaken as unprofessional, uncommunicative, tardy for work, unmotivated, not a team worker, not a good follower of authority, etc. Like honestly whenever you're filling those job screenings there should be a checkbox for INTP personality.
I've seen a term called "neurodivergent", but that sounds like too much. INTP is "just" a personality type.
I think this satisfaction part with everyone else applies to INTPs with low eq because I would never tell someone that it’s not good enough if they are proud of it, as the effort is what matters
So thats why I don't have any friends
To be honest I think this might be exaggerated a bit for the knowledge bit.
Most of it is on point but I think we can also easily overcome these issues with others with introspection.
I’m questioning whether I really am an INTP cause I’m not that harsh of a person and I feel like my intelligence is modest. I’m impatient sure but I’m pretty laid back most of the time and appreciate real effort I don’t expect perfection from anyone because I’m not (even though I procrastinate trying to perfect an idea myself) I like to make moves with the minimal amount of failure possible if I care about it. Can anyone relate to this?
5:44 many people is only soul, not mind. And caring about that is mostly caring about illusions.
Kept trying to convince myself I was an intj with a infj shadow... I was just procrastinating getting to the truth because i wasn't quite sure. 😅
5:06 Eventually it becomes logical to expect emotions. I even added telling people to take time aside for emotional vulnerability.
fax im always mad at pepol around me
We value perspective thus jeopardizing the blankets of convention others dance with over their heads. I've been told I'm intimidating by narcissists moreso than unassuming unintentioned people.
If I had a girlfriend who had a bad day at work my response would be something like, you chose to follow the societal "normal" life path so that's what you got. Why are you upset at experiencing exactly what that path you took is always going to give you? Yes I know you want me to hug you, tell you it's all going to be okay, or maybe you want me to talk trash about your boss who yelled at you and say that b*tch! But I'm not going to, cause that's nonsense. Your feelings are your business, not mine. How you feel is not my responsibility.
Idk why this video has to specify “men” could just as easily have been a gender neutral video about both intp women and men.
Which one of these traits would you consider not applicable to intp women?
Women in general are not as intimidating.
There's something about a stone cold quiet man that's intimidating, like a pitbull
@@dab0331 your comment is not at all rational actually stern coldness is intimidating in any person irrespective of men and women
@@detraxop6680 please. A woman will NEVER be as intimidating as a man in a physical sense
@@dab0331 may be not physically intimidating but a emotion less woman can be very dangerous and intimidating than anything
@@detraxop6680 nope. even then no.
Even if she has a weapon not so much. You can beat her up and take it from her
Women are only intimidating if they have access to you while you're fast asleep
As an INFP I can say, that me being the typical "panicked deer" due to social anxiety, I actually feel very comfortable around INTPs. Just because they are logical thinkers, doesnt mean they are judgemental in nature.. quite the opposite.
Really if people gave intps a chance, they would realize most have good intentions and want to help. I do find it interesting how intps and and infps get along and can often be friends when one is often seen as or stereotyped as emotionally cold or aloof while the other is perceived to have hypersensitivity (hsp) as an Fi introverted feelings user. You would think such a pairing would have difficulty getting along but it’s often quite the opposite. In fact combined together they often make a great creative team.
As an intj female i never found intps intimidating, i just find them cutie adorable 😭
About the INTP I know...he is a collector of trivial bits of data about thousands of subjects. Google was invented for people like him eg give me a quick brief answer then on to the next subject.
In dating he is a bower bird "oh look at this shiny gum wrapper I found do you know how they get the shiny part to adhere to the paper part? Here's how." " See. this string it looks like the threads they use in Guatemala for huipiles....those are woven on a backstrap loom, first you find some staight tree branches then you whittle..."
That is how he attracted me Im an INTJ psychology professor and my subject is what I know deeply after a lifetime of study, the literature etc. Someone asked me can a person have a personanlity change due to a brain injury. I mentioned the case of a railroad worker whose personality changed after an accident...famous in the literature,but something few laymen would be familiar with as it is historic.
He piped up "Phineas Gage."..I was shocked. I asked if he studied psychology he said a course in college...but that case isnt discussed. He had read about it . THEN he had my attention.
Actually he knows next to nothing about psychology and has no passion for the subject. In fact he has no passion for any subject except briefly then it is on to something else that glitters in the distance or on Google.
He has a masters in computer engineering and had a good career in the field. He is 83
and of high intelligence it is just scattered over multiple thousands of bits of unrelated data . So an in depth disussion in your own field uncovers that quite readily.
Still, his never ending curiosity is charming and endearing amd admirable. On the emotional level he has great difficulty. He has NO vocabulary for feelings...he feels them he says but he cannot describe them even when talking about relationships in his chidhood family. There is no nuance in describing anything related to emotion. And though he has been married twice for long periods of time he is not at home in his own body or expressive with it . He cant feel in tune with or read someone else's if he cant do that with his own!
People do like him because he doesnt seem judgmental....he seems open and curious. He lets others talk being an introvert and has quite a cadre of people who care deeply about him and his welfare.
INTPs are indeed unique.
I'm an intp plus I have Asperger's autism so for me showing emotions is almost non existent. I can smile but thats about it.. And when I do get emotional I can rationalize them away in seconds.
You just get labeled different names from others : wolf , harsh , creepy ect.. better to be normal.
Any Myer briggs specialist out here
I feel like im an INTP-A online but and INTP-T offline/reality.
I remember reading somewhere that introverts have a strong inner foundation but a mediocore outter one and i find the mix of the two INTP types to be both true for me
Btw Musk is an INTJ not NTP
Seems like in a lot of the scenarios the INTP is a manager type person, in real life I have 0% interest in being other people’s boss and just want freedom to explore different topics with the least amount of meetings and such.
I like this creator.. A - class👌
Thank you 💯
Is this why certain women look at me as if i offended them💀💀💀
What about INTP women lol?
Pretty much the same applies but we may make a video of the INTP Women too!
Meh! Lol -an INTP woman
@@sylviaowega3839 women aren't as intimidating. We all know that
@@dab0331 Well … certainly not physically
@@sylviaowega3839 INTP women can be just as intellectually intimidating if not more so than men (for the fact that running into an INTP woman in the wild is a rarity and would throw most people for a loop) IF they are confident and sure of their mental capabilities. Intp men have a significant struggle with developing these qualities. It seems that it would be a greater obstacle for women - generally speaking, to overcome given that they are not falling in line with the socially accepted, typical female Fe/Fi behavior. It's expected for men to be more logically or analytically inclined but for women, not so much.
That stock footage at 3:29 combined with the voiceover was a weird choice
Yeah that was… a little weird.
That whole thing about “how much heat “iminates” (which isn’t even a real word by the way) from the sun part is so incorrect I don’t know where to start.
No one has ever found this INTP intimidating.
Thank you for saying it 😅 … INTP men are among the most bullied type, so it doesn’t make sense whatsoever to call them intimidating. This is plain manipulative and misleading content in my opinion.
we know what to say and when to say it to make an impact on someone
We care about others emotions but allowing another persons feelings to determine a proper course of action is illogical and although it might make them feel better in the moment we are thinking of how all concerned will feel when they're emotion based plan fails.
As a INTP male I apologize to ever one I know....................................................................
................................................................................................................................................
for nothing!!!!!!!!!! stop being so emotional!!!!!!!
The whole bit about group setting and getting into arguments over the quality of someone elses work seems much more INTJ to me.
This is not something I do, and i am amicable to others skills, so long as they are giving accurate results.
Someone once said that MBTI is a horoscope for people with LinkedIn profile
My nieces & nephews know me as Unkipedia.
You spotted me in the first 1 minute and 20 seconds
Sounds like a Sigma Male to me
Intp are so unique they can adapt to any male type
"Intimidating"?! Lol No way! Quite the opposite! INTP woman here
