As an INTP who else has tried daydreaming/thinking about the topic or coming up with a topic you love for hours to the point you become mentally drained and sleepy and need to nap
I'm a INTP and have ABHD. With those things together fucks up my attention span even lower or probably mosty of INTP people has this condition...but who knows...I always start daydreaming or don't pay attention.
Whenever i think i am on to something, making up a theory, testing it in my mind, i cannot sleep. When i have formed theory, completely convinced, share it with someone, and then find out that it’s either not interesting or they just accept my theory without trying to disprove it, i crash. And crash.
One of the main traits of INTPs is, they do speak in simple way. They simplify things to be more understandable. The ones that often sound like scholars are Te people. It is the logic used by INTP that is complicated. Not the way they speak.
@@cayk481 that's not the same with simplifying your speech. INTPs on average are wordy, but they use easy to understand words instead of scholarly words although they on average know most words in the dictionary. This is because of Fe (the way they deliver their message is Fe based)
I don't agree with this. IDK if it's valid or not, but in my personal experience I've never heard INTPs articulation being described as simplistic or easy to understand nor have I ever heard of Te being ascribed to scholarly speech. Te is loud, arrogant and abrasive. Im not sure where you've picked up that this was the consensus, but its certainly not in the many MBTI related communities I explore online.

"this is both a blessing and a curse" i agree so much it constantly feels like an inner struggle with myself its like i don't want to slip away from reality, i just want to think and be like a normal person but at the same time i like that i'm different, i just want to lay down and daydream a differnt world where anything i imagine can feel like reality, cause it feels so nice to escape the real world
Haha as INTP I'm now confident.. because the world that you think it is are not true so you have to keep inquisitive and pursue the curiousity about the real world rather than self deprecated that u r not fit in...
I am an intp…. I have to say it really does suck…. No one understands how great it is just to be alone for hours on end reading or writing, drawing…. Or how great it is to be free from the mundane… It’s like they say freedom isn’t free.
Your description is very accurate. I’m a female INTP and it’s rough being more rational than my husband. I sometimes sound like Mr. Spock. The INTP is only passive aggressive when forced into situations they don’t want to be in (like a relationship or job that has extended beyond its usefulness)…Their also the type that will leave to get MILK and never return home or be heard from again. Lol

If I’ve got an appointment it runs through my head all the time. “Got a meeting, got a meeting, got a meeting” and the only relief is when the meeting actually happens. A 4pm meeting is agony - I’m ready by 9am and can’t settle to anything else all day.
great vid. i feel so seen. I wish my bosses understood this. I think they def think i'm lazy, when i'm actually spending so much of the day thinking about the systemic issues of our business.
Yeah, if there's people involved I'll feel obligated to be punctual and make sure that I have all my tasks fully completed on time. If it's just for me though... yeah... deadlines are mere suggestions that I can put off until either there's a near disaster waiting for me or accomplishing the task becomes unimportant.
There are times where i just share some random facts to my friends that i read on the internet or a book, then one day i heard them talking shit about me calling me "ms-know-it-all" and even mocked me for that.. I didn't know that sharing random facts is wrong, so i just stopped 🤷♀️
Don't forget, we INTP's are our own worst critics. When the world isn't beating on us or trying to take advantage of us, we do it to ourselves. Don't let that happen to you. Sooner or later you will recite some random fact to someone and their whole face will light up. Don't overthink it. Even though you will. lol

INTP here. Almost my whole life I have greatly suffered due to being constantly being misunderstood and branded as being weird. Consequently I’ve have had few friends; -and my few friends primarily consisted of other NT’s, graduate students and university professors
Lateness and punctuality are more nuanced than people typically think. When it matters to me I am punctual. It is illogical to show up late to a movie or concert. And then there's Fe. If you have an appointment with others and you have empathy for how they feel, you'll show up on time. It's inconsiderate to keep others waiting. But, if it's just getting moving or getting around to doing a chore, then no matter how hard I try, there are always distractions and I rarely can get an early start. As to thinking or daydreaming, this may be one reason I fall asleep so easily.
Hey, I'm punctual. There are a number of other day-to-day things I easily let slide though, and for many activities I like to have a sort of choreography fixed, so I can just go through it without giving it much thought, and arriving at fixed appointments are part of that. One factor of appearing weird is that before talking or taking action an INTP has often thought about the thing already, and might have gone through a logical process, that if A then B, which leads to C, so of course D, due to which E...but in their talk or action they then can skip the middle states and just jump from A to Z, go to conclusions or adopt a certain manner of doing things that seems bizarre to others, just because of course they don't know the logical steps in between (this was a point that e.g. in school I had to pay attention to, several teachers pointed out that I have to make my transitions clearer, be it maths, be it writing an essay, and it still is not the most natural thing to do). And of course having absorbed a variety of knowledges and ideas, and this way being capable of drawing from arcane references or methods, and again, without really explaining them...
Thanks so much for the insight you’ve provided with this comment! it’s amazing to get more like minded people’s perspectives, so more people can feel understood and it’s comments like these that can really help other people out.
I have learned to simplify everything I say to people. Im pretty sure I learned this because people would make fun of me for being a know it all. So I simplify everything. The only exception is when I'm arguing or when I'm angry with someone. No simplifications here you pissed me off lol.
When going somewhere, I'm not the late type. In fact as a teen usually I was the first to arrive anywhere, and then waited awkwardly. It was later, that through observation I learned, that being a bit late is okay too. On the other hand, when it comes to tasks, procrastination is my middle name, so deadlines are constant enemies. Also, random and useless facts has many, many kings and queens. But then tell me it isn't satisfying to teach new stuff to the open minded. :)
@@raddasra7084 Maybe because we hadn't a car and had to go everywhere by public transportation. Also my mom taught me that it is rude to be late. And as an INTP, who lives in her head, I just went with this helpful instruction concerning others feelings. It took some time to realize that others don't give a fig about being rude or late.
I guess everyone can imagine what I’m going through not only being a I NTP but also a Leo I’m double damn! I’m happy that I came across this video I guess it wasn’t enough for my mother and my friends to tell me I’m hard to deal with and talk to I believe some stranger on RUclips in a video first 🤣
"People have a hard time relating to us". What a great way to put it. I usually phrase it "I have a hard time relating to people" ... and maybe that is my problem.
Are INTPs really that rare? 16 personality types means the average percentage is only 6.25 for any given type. So if INTP is 3% of the population, that means they're half as frequent as your average type. But by mathematical standards, any type is rare compared to all the other types combined. I think "less common" is a more appropriate quantifier.
I'm an INTP who almost always shows up early to things unless something outside my control stops me. Sometimes a bit too early cause I hyperfocus on it. No wonder I mistyped as IXTJ in the past.
Hi, thanks for this video, it's like you just made it clear says what's going on in my head. I discovered MBTI two month ago and since then i have been so confused to find out more about my type and how much it explains a lot of my thoughts and behaviors
That’s no problem, thank you for your amazing feed back! It can be really hard thinking that nobody understands you, when I first discovered MBTI it opened up my world, it’s the first time I really felt connected to something. It’s the whole reason I started this channel, so hopefully I can make others feel the same way.
I'm intp and I'm actually very emotional, I just don't express my emotions very much because I'm afraid that people will consider me as clingy. I can't agree more with anything else you said, I'm ALWAYS late, I am scatter brained and passive aggressive. I hate conventional everyday routine as well and I hate it when people ignore solid facts. The only difference I have with the stereotypical intp is that I'm highly empathetic.
I have many different interests and categories of knowledge but I'm never interested long enough to gain an in depth understanding of them. So yea I've read about Norse mythology, the genius of Michaelangelo, urban forging, history of polka music, anime, mbti, but I only retained a smattering of info....
Same I want to know about other facts but if it doesn't spark my interest then 🤷🏿♀️. Then when I read on something I find interesting like psychology and trying to understand what emotions are for I absorb it like a sponge,annoying because we have great capabilities to learn info quickly but our motivation and attention skills suck if it's boring info.
Yes were weird, people misunderstood us and yes this is very bad, bothering for us. Argh! people have so much stupid rules. + they like to tease you and say = I was joking!? What? If its joke, we must laugh but I dont laugh not funny? But when I do joke they dont understand, get angry or not laugh. I dont do joke, just talk ask or answer and they laugh to my words. 😪⁉️❓❗ I use my emotions but I cant control them sometimes because of the happening things!? My surroundings are stupid judge people...
I've never grasped the misunderstood feeling personalities sometimes speak of. I've always been the master of my own universe. Most people don't have anything I would ever need.
I literally need an alarm clock to stop me from being late all the time and even then I can be late as I walk around like a zombie until the alarm clock goes off then I rush to get ready causing me to be late
I used to be the annoying kid who kept asking why about everything . Most times the answer was just because. Ofc this was not an answer i could accept. Growing older i keep getting more questions and less answers. And nobody understands why i get so annoyed about aspects of society that are extremely illogical. Why can’t i just accept the way things are? I constantly feel like everybody keeps saying that 2+2=5. So, either i am weird, or the rest of the world is.
People tend to be intimidated by my presence when they first meet me... they said either I look dead inside or i look a psycho looking for her next prey 😎 About the feelers types... that soo true, I learn how to express my emotions and be more empathetic from my parents and Lil sister (me being the odd one in family 😃)
What am I really? ... I took the test 3 separate occasions.. like not less that 8 months apart so to speak... 1st result was INTP, 2nd time was ISTP... then the latest is again INTP... Wondering if the results is also situational based if that makes sense... I was making a life decision around the 2nd test... The 1st and 3rd one.. was at neutral environment, no decision making to ponder on...
Yeah im kinda the same situation but what i reckon is that im mainly intp in my thinking and processing and just have istp hobbies and am attracted to 'sensory' things, its all just a spectrum you can learn from. "Love Who" has a video 'intp vs istp' that i found interesting.
I like to search up things on google I RLLY LIKE TO but too lazy for that ISTG + i don't rlly know if im an intp I DUNNO HOW DOES THESE MBTI WORK these questions are hella confusing
As an adult I took the test and I'm an INTP, back when I was young I would lie to the test spouting out nonsense others would say about me, even though I know it's not me. Right now, my personality has been constantly INTP.
I actually think myself as normal and ordinary as I can be but apparently people around me told me I’m weird. I feel it’s kinda more strange that they didn’t think or perceive things as I do. Also, I feel like I’m sort of a crybaby but people feel like I’m emotionless, I just think that they are too emotional on things that aren’t so meaningful. That’s why I’m researching this and I feel this video is helpful for bridging that inconsistent views of myself and of others. But, I still don’t think we are weird in my definition of weird, just a bit different and that’s okay because everyone else are not the same and that’s normal and so, we are normal, I think? Idk whether I should leave it to that or is it worth it to do more research on it… kinda feels too subjective and redundant but I can feel that it can be useful in daily life.
As an INTP, I used to reducing contact with people in case they found me weird. However, i gradually find a proper way to connect with others and try hard to fit in any societies around me as possible as i can. It's just like wearing a nice-guy-mask tho.
“Weird” is a word people often use to describe anyone who doesn’t seem to act exactly like them so I wouldn’t worry about it too much. Some people are genuinely weirdos (which isn’t necessarily a bad thing) but other times it’s a case of cultural/background/personality differences being misunderstood and unappreciated, in which case their opinions count for very little. The perception some people have of INTPs and INFPs particularly is so stupidly far-removed from the real them that anything said about them is a monumental waste of saliva that doesn’t bear thinking about from your side. You’re just going to have to allow random strangers who from whom you haven’t asked for judgement to assume you’re some sort of weirdo and run with that in their heads. Everybody don’t got to really vibe with and understand who you truly are, especially not with a type as sacred as INTP.
Knowledge is not power. said Schopenhauer and others. McClellan had Robert E. Lee' s battle plans almost a day before the battle of Antietam and did nothing. He could have won the war if he had been more aggressive. You have to the right instincts as well as the right information in order to succeed.
@@itraits yes can you help me...??? actually is my type istp or intp...help me...if you are willing to go through zoom meeting or google meeting...??? Thx gbu
When listening to long discussions, how easy/hard is it for you to stay focused and not zone out? According to the source I will list, INTPs are thinkers, not feelers. How easily do you understand and relate to the emotional complaints and requests of others? psychreel.com/istp-vs-intp/

This is 100% …….. I’ve known I’m an INTP since the early 2000’s and it’s awesome, but I’ve always been told I’m “odd / weird / strange/different / damaged / broken” I would sit at junior schools some days with user levels of procrastination and just go off into our INTP thinking world and basically phase out… then get back to work in lighting speed (with the errors) get angry at myself for the errors and then go into a st hit down mode… so when at high school I first looked into spiritualism ( scepticism central right here !!! Ghost “hunter”) I found my star sign was accurate BUT it don’t work like that (or does it ???? As we are in a quantum world 🙄) I will edit this as more thoughts come to me
INTPs are like vinegar. Vinegar alone seems like it shouldn't exist. If every food were vinegar, food would suck. But the right hint of vinegar in your solidly based dish, and it makes everything better.
I don't care to fit or try to be like others I just live in my world and do my thing and really don't want to be like everyone else I like to be different but not odd or weird but different. I just don't care and that's my problem I don't try to fit in or be liked I just am me. You either like me or you don't. And the ones that don't like me are the ones trying to fit in and blend in and I am just off being myself.
I was hoping being INTP would mean I had super powers buy it seems to point that I have ADD which I already knew and that I'm a loner and I rub people the wrong way and I'm scattered brained and rude. YAY wait till I see God for I want to know why I had to be INTP and not the CEO and entrepreneur type. I've been weird my whole life. I just don't like to share my space or my private life with those I don't feel safe with. I think outside the box and live outside the box. Apathy and escape are my best friends.
You need to raise your volume. Your accent is hard to understand, especially at low volume. The music added to the video mixes with the low sound and raises a need for subtitles. Too bad your subtitles are dark grey on a black background,.
(If you're an INTP, you will appreciate this) Destructive mode: Dont start with the 3% fact - that is just half of what 100/16 averages to. We're less common - we're not really RARE. And you lack social skills might be genuine - but your monotone voice seems fake even to me - an INTP. On the positive note: Actually, I got nothing so far (this comment is a work in progress through the video). Sidenote: The cut at 5:53 with the lighing is really oblivious and annoying, I noticed it even when not looking at the screen directly. Cutting can surely be made more fluent - this one was a bad one. Overall, just the lighting changed - maybe think about that. Finally: You're trying to bring the InTP peronality to the world. That's a good thing - regardless of any criticism. Take your strides with this - seriously. Hello, other MBTI-Types, you dont get that last sentence. Anyway, good luck. But seriously, you got to work on your speaking skills - emphazising is the key to the world. More even in spoken language than written text.
Once, I thought, when buddy took me by lake, trying to explain understandable way for me EMOTIONS... Using FACTS... I thought I am bit autistic, seriously, I had sever headache for 3 days... But later on, I understood, I am just INTP. NOPE, WRONG. I JUST UNDERSTOOD, I AM *T. H. E. INTP* 😏
Stop calling us intps weird. We're not. Just because our cognitive functions is structured different we could say you non intp mind is weird and you easily oversee easy to see mistake

One factor of appearing weird is that before talking or taking action an INTP has often thought about the thing already, and might have gone through a logical process, that if A then B, which leads to C, so of course D, due to which E...but in their talk or action they then can skip the middle states and just jump from A to Z, go to conclusions or adopt a certain manner of doing things that seems bizarre to others, just because of course they don't know the logical steps in between (this was a point that e.g. in school I had to pay attention to, several teachers pointed out that I have to make my transitions clearer, be it maths, be it writing an essay, and it still is not the most natural thing to do).
And of course having absorbed a variety of knowledges and ideas, and this way being capable of drawing from arcane references or methods, and again, without really explaining them...
Thanks so much for the insight you’ve provided with this comment!
it’s amazing to get more like minded people’s perspectives, so more people can feel understood and it’s comments like these that can really help other people out.
I have learned to simplify everything I say to people. Im pretty sure I learned this because people would make fun of me for being a know it all. So I simplify everything. The only exception is when I'm arguing or when I'm angry with someone. No simplifications here you pissed me off lol.
When going somewhere, I'm not the late type. In fact as a teen usually I was the first to arrive anywhere, and then waited awkwardly. It was later, that through observation I learned, that being a bit late is okay too.
On the other hand, when it comes to tasks, procrastination is my middle name, so deadlines are constant enemies.
Also, random and useless facts has many, many kings and queens. But then tell me it isn't satisfying to teach new stuff to the open minded. :)
Not the late type and intp? Confusing.
@@raddasra7084 Maybe because we hadn't a car and had to go everywhere by public transportation. Also my mom taught me that it is rude to be late. And as an INTP, who lives in her head, I just went with this helpful instruction concerning others feelings. It took some time to realize that others don't give a fig about being rude or late.
Same. I usually go out very early cause I need to prepare myself. Staying outside more because your late(like lines) is very draining for me
@@raddasra7084 sometimes too early. but normally the most late of all people 😂
Haha INTP here, I'm always late to everything. I've said in the past that I should be dead, but I'm late to my own funeral.
I guess everyone can imagine what I’m going through not only being a I NTP but also a Leo I’m double damn! I’m happy that I came across this video I guess it wasn’t enough for my mother and my friends to tell me I’m hard to deal with and talk to I believe some stranger on RUclips in a video first 🤣
Strange that we are 3% but in that identify so completely with your explanation!! Misunderstood on one hand but understood totally on the other
"People have a hard time relating to us". What a great way to put it. I usually phrase it "I have a hard time relating to people" ... and maybe that is my problem.
Are INTPs really that rare? 16 personality types means the average percentage is only 6.25 for any given type. So if INTP is 3% of the population, that means they're half as frequent as your average type. But by mathematical standards, any type is rare compared to all the other types combined.
I think "less common" is a more appropriate quantifier.
I'm an INTP who almost always shows up early to things unless something outside my control stops me. Sometimes a bit too early cause I hyperfocus on it. No wonder I mistyped as IXTJ in the past.
Hi, thanks for this video, it's like you just made it clear says what's going on in my head. I discovered MBTI two month ago and since then i have been so confused to find out more about my type and how much it explains a lot of my thoughts and behaviors
That’s no problem, thank you for your amazing feed back!
It can be really hard thinking that nobody understands you, when I first discovered MBTI it opened up my world, it’s the first time I really felt connected to something.
It’s the whole reason I started this channel, so hopefully I can make others feel the same way.
I'm intp and I'm actually very emotional, I just don't express my emotions very much because I'm afraid that people will consider me as clingy. I can't agree more with anything else you said, I'm ALWAYS late, I am scatter brained and passive aggressive. I hate conventional everyday routine as well and I hate it when people ignore solid facts. The only difference I have with the stereotypical intp is that I'm highly empathetic.
I have many different interests and categories of knowledge but I'm never interested long enough to gain an in depth understanding of them. So yea I've read about Norse mythology, the genius of Michaelangelo, urban forging, history of polka music, anime, mbti, but I only retained a smattering of info....
Same I want to know about other facts but if it doesn't spark my interest then 🤷🏿♀️. Then when I read on something I find interesting like psychology and trying to understand what emotions are for I absorb it like a sponge,annoying because we have great capabilities to learn info quickly but our motivation and attention skills suck if it's boring info.
Likewise. Mile wide, inch deep.
Yes were weird, people misunderstood us and yes this is very bad, bothering for us. Argh! people have so much stupid rules. + they like to tease you and say = I was joking!? What? If its joke, we must laugh but I dont laugh not funny? But when I do joke they dont understand, get angry or not laugh. I dont do joke, just talk ask or answer and they laugh to my words. 😪⁉️❓❗ I use my emotions but I cant control them sometimes because of the happening things!? My surroundings are stupid judge people...
I hate that as well and sometimes people think that we being rude on the jokes we make
I really was looking for this thanks
I've never grasped the misunderstood feeling personalities sometimes speak of. I've always been the master of my own universe. Most people don't have anything I would ever need.
I like to be a weirdo INTP
They laugh at us because we are different I laugh at them bc they are all the same
I literally need an alarm clock to stop me from being late all the time and even then I can be late as I walk around like a zombie until the alarm clock goes off then I rush to get ready causing me to be late
I used to be the annoying kid who kept asking why about everything . Most times the answer was just because. Ofc this was not an answer i could accept. Growing older i keep getting more questions and less answers. And nobody understands why i get so annoyed about aspects of society that are extremely illogical. Why can’t i just accept the way things are?
I constantly feel like everybody keeps saying that 2+2=5.
So, either i am weird, or the rest of the world is.
The rest of the world is.
I feel like a fraud INTP. I don't wear glasses, and I've done manual labor work for much of my life.
People tend to be intimidated by my presence when they first meet me... they said either I look dead inside or i look a psycho looking for her next prey 😎
About the feelers types... that soo true, I learn how to express my emotions and be more empathetic from my parents and Lil sister (me being the odd one in family 😃)
What am I really? ... I took the test 3 separate occasions.. like not less that 8 months apart so to speak... 1st result was INTP, 2nd time was ISTP... then the latest is again INTP... Wondering if the results is also situational based if that makes sense... I was making a life decision around the 2nd test... The 1st and 3rd one.. was at neutral environment, no decision making to ponder on...
Yeah im kinda the same situation but what i reckon is that im mainly intp in my thinking and processing and just have istp hobbies and am attracted to 'sensory' things, its all just a spectrum you can learn from. "Love Who" has a video 'intp vs istp' that i found interesting.
I regularly get physically heated thinking about conversations/arguments I had over 20 years ago.. Please go away!
I like to search up things on google I RLLY LIKE TO but too lazy for that ISTG + i don't rlly know if im an intp I DUNNO HOW DOES THESE MBTI WORK these questions are hella confusing
As an adult I took the test and I'm an INTP, back when I was young I would lie to the test spouting out nonsense others would say about me, even though I know it's not me. Right now, my personality has been constantly INTP.
I actually think myself as normal and ordinary as I can be but apparently people around me told me I’m weird. I feel it’s kinda more strange that they didn’t think or perceive things as I do. Also, I feel like I’m sort of a crybaby but people feel like I’m emotionless, I just think that they are too emotional on things that aren’t so meaningful. That’s why I’m researching this and I feel this video is helpful for bridging that inconsistent views of myself and of others. But, I still don’t think we are weird in my definition of weird, just a bit different and that’s okay because everyone else are not the same and that’s normal and so, we are normal, I think? Idk whether I should leave it to that or is it worth it to do more research on it… kinda feels too subjective and redundant but I can feel that it can be useful in daily life.
As an INTP, I used to reducing contact with people in case they found me weird. However, i gradually find a proper way to connect with others and try hard to fit in any societies around me as possible as i can. It's just like wearing a nice-guy-mask tho.
“Weird” is a word people often use to describe anyone who doesn’t seem to act exactly like them so I wouldn’t worry about it too much. Some people are genuinely weirdos (which isn’t necessarily a bad thing) but other times it’s a case of cultural/background/personality differences being misunderstood and unappreciated, in which case their opinions count for very little. The perception some people have of INTPs and INFPs particularly is so stupidly far-removed from the real them that anything said about them is a monumental waste of saliva that doesn’t bear thinking about from your side. You’re just going to have to allow random strangers who from whom you haven’t asked for judgement to assume you’re some sort of weirdo and run with that in their heads. Everybody don’t got to really vibe with and understand who you truly are, especially not with a type as sacred as INTP.
Knowledge is not power. said Schopenhauer and others. McClellan had Robert E. Lee' s battle plans almost a day before the battle of Antietam and did nothing. He could have won the war if he had been more aggressive. You have to the right instincts as well as the right information in order to succeed.
He wasn't knowledgeable enough to formulate a thorough battle plan, lol
Whats the blue light behide?
can you help me rate whether i am intp or istp.... i am very confused...
What would you say confuses you about the two types?
Do you think you have traits from both?
@@itraits yes can you help me...??? actually is my type istp or intp...help me...if you are willing to go through zoom meeting or google meeting...??? Thx gbu
When listening to long discussions, how easy/hard is it for you to stay focused and not zone out? According to the source I will list, INTPs are thinkers, not feelers. How easily do you understand and relate to the emotional complaints and requests of others?

@@DarkPegasus87 the article won ISTP....can you rate me..??? do i belong to intp or istp..or give me an accurate test site...
@@antondeannova7016: Apparently, someone in charge has a bug up their crack about my source and won't let me tell you. Do you have a Facebook or Minds account?
I'm an INTJ what It means I'm misunderstood all the time only a few types can truly understand me for example INTP ENTP and maybe INFJ :D
This is 100% ……..
I’ve known I’m an INTP since the early 2000’s and it’s awesome, but I’ve always been told I’m “odd / weird / strange/different / damaged / broken”
I would sit at junior schools some days with user levels of procrastination and just go off into our INTP thinking world and basically phase out… then get back to work in lighting speed (with the errors) get angry at myself for the errors and then go into a st hit down mode… so when at high school I first looked into spiritualism ( scepticism central right here !!! Ghost “hunter”) I found my star sign was accurate BUT it don’t work like that (or does it ???? As we are in a quantum world 🙄)
I will edit this as more thoughts come to me
You aint the only weirdo here mate - isfp
We just have to own it!
Thanks for checking out my video and for the comment :)
INTPs are like vinegar.
Vinegar alone seems like it shouldn't exist. If every food were vinegar, food would suck.
But the right hint of vinegar in your solidly based dish, and it makes everything better.
The video is great but the music is annoying and distracted 😞
I don't care to fit or try to be like others I just live in my world and do my thing and really don't want to be like everyone else I like to be different but not odd or weird but different. I just don't care and that's my problem I don't try to fit in or be liked I just am me. You either like me or you don't. And the ones that don't like me are the ones trying to fit in and blend in and I am just off being myself.
To the mundanes different IS weird.
I feel a kinship other INTPs which is good because I figure aliens will abduct us all at some point.
Mr. Bean is an INTP
I knew I was different always tried to fit in
There are more than enough conformists in society. Creative thinkers are just as important.
I was hoping being INTP would mean I had super powers buy it seems to point that I have ADD which I already knew and that I'm a loner and I rub people the wrong way and I'm scattered brained and rude. YAY wait till I see God for I want to know why I had to be INTP and not the CEO and entrepreneur type. I've been weird my whole life. I just don't like to share my space or my private life with those I don't feel safe with. I think outside the box and live outside the box. Apathy and escape are my best friends.
INTPs are the best.
You need to raise your volume. Your accent is hard to understand, especially at low volume. The music added to the video mixes with the low sound and raises a need for subtitles. Too bad your subtitles are dark grey on a black background,.
(If you're an INTP, you will appreciate this) Destructive mode: Dont start with the 3% fact - that is just half of what 100/16 averages to. We're less common - we're not really RARE. And you lack social skills might be genuine - but your monotone voice seems fake even to me - an INTP. On the positive note: Actually, I got nothing so far (this comment is a work in progress through the video). Sidenote: The cut at 5:53 with the lighing is really oblivious and annoying, I noticed it even when not looking at the screen directly. Cutting can surely be made more fluent - this one was a bad one. Overall, just the lighting changed - maybe think about that.
Finally: You're trying to bring the InTP peronality to the world. That's a good thing - regardless of any criticism. Take your strides with this - seriously. Hello, other MBTI-Types, you dont get that last sentence. Anyway, good luck. But seriously, you got to work on your speaking skills - emphazising is the key to the world. More even in spoken language than written text.
INTP 5w6 here.
Hey fellow INTP! I think I lean more towards being INTP 5w4.
thanks for checking out my video and for the comment!
INTP- A 5w
Am i an infp or intp?🙂
Hmmm, let me think about that...
Infp
Clearly, you are the sky
INTPs are not weird the rest of them are.
INTP I like ESTP 🙂.
Yr way of speaking turned me off although the content maybe good. I would rather reading the scripts if u speak same way
Scottish ? Cute accent
Once, I thought, when buddy took me by lake, trying to explain understandable way for me EMOTIONS... Using FACTS... I thought I am bit autistic, seriously, I had sever headache for 3 days... But
later on, I understood, I am just INTP.
NOPE, WRONG.
I JUST UNDERSTOOD, I AM
*T. H. E. INTP* 😏
Stop calling us intps weird. We're not. Just because our cognitive functions is structured different we could say you non intp mind is weird and you easily oversee easy to see mistake
