yes you are missing something it has to do with the I in the Intp you just summarized it as being they are introverted it is much deeper than that But it is introverted thinking at the top which makes them more Introverted but does not = introverted
"But it is for public good" or "It is good for people." It might be, but the analysis behind those statements goes very far, and quickly stating these things make a lot of INTP's think they do not actually care, or they care about their feelings. On the last topic, we might be planning and planning, but when we see a good option, we make it quickly, for as P's we can be very spontaneous.
You forgot to mention cognitive functions (except when you mentioned Extroverted iNtuition or Ne). Otherwise, it was somewhat accurate imo. -An INTP (Ti-Ne-Si-Fe).
Yes, you missed addressing the fact that Myers-Briggs types have no basis in experimental data, that the Jungian archetypes upon which they are based have both changed in meaning over the years and were fairly poor ways to evaluate people to begin with, that very few people in rigorous modern psychology research give much, if any, validity to them, and that alternate metrics, while still flawed, are generally considered to be at least more useful in practical trait psychology. Ans that's not even mentioning the influence of various flavors of neurodivergence. The point is, videos like this perpetuate the notion that these "types" are a valid and useful way to frame personality traits, which is just not the case according to almost anyone with professional experience in psychology or psychotherapy. Which makes it seem rather harmful to be promoting them without any disclaimer or advisement of the limitations and defects of this model.
I especially hate being told "because I said so" and "that's just the way it is." You don't earn respect just by virtue of your position or title. Also, the reason why things are the way they are is because there are idiots who accept the situation unquestioningly.
Have you tried asking 'Why?' to them? in my experience most of them became better on being a leader by telling them (or making themselves know they're being illogical) since Highschool... I did it because I like to see their face realizing their being an asshole leader/upper status and loosing some if their man's respect.
INTP's are very much fans of the line "respect is earned not given" often why im sure many of us are considered rebels and politically incorrect or trouble makers
Agree with all but the last bit. Reality is the way it is because it's that way. We look to UNDERSTAND what leads things to be the way they are, but no matter what it is you understand, the result is always that's the way it is. Humans don't control reality, we can't change it. That's ego at play. Everything goes exactly as it was always meant to. That doesn't mean we don't look into the HOW and WHY, but learning the how and why is only for our own understanding. Why is the sky blue? Ahh I see that's why. Nothing you can do with that information. Reality is reality. It's like learning how a magician does his tricks, we understand it, but doesn't mean we can change his tricks lol.
It's so hard though. Most people talk about what they ate or what they will eat for dinner. What movie they watched last night. So boring. At least that's my experience in England."Work experience" In general life I don't talk to people at all. Not interested in what they have to say.
@@oskars82Thing is, one time I started pondering what actually is small talk, and I find it so hard to define. I start to think that I have too much bias on the so call “small talk” and if I work hard enough, I can always make it a more interesting conversation.
Agree on the points. As an INTP when I get asked "how are you feeling?", "how was your weekend?" "how's everything?" my response will be "nothing much", "nothing special", "no special feelings", "ok" and in actual fact, I really think they sum up how I feel. But a lot of people will think I am being anti-social, aloof or don't wish to engage with them, when that's not really the case. 😂
True though and I usually find these questions annoying because how would I, for example, remember what I did in the weekend? And why would it matter? Plus even if I did remember they probably won't find it interesting 🧡 we could have an awkward conversation of me explaining my latest introverted endeavours and they could look at me like I'm crazy or uncomfortably pretend to care, or I could say "nothing much" and spare us both so we could talk about something else.
I only think of politics because of the idea of making my country better. But because you have to be dirty and be forced to do somethings in order to keep your position, i gave up the idea!
I lost complete interest in politics because its about us versus them thinking which is the base component of all the atrocities committed against people groups. Plus truth is not what politics are about anymore its all smoke and mirrors. Its become a blame game which prevents any real change for people being done. Corrupted system...
as a intp the only reason why i don't tell others about my feelings is because i would feel as if im a burden to them and i don't want to annoy someone with my problems
Yes agreed. Also that the feeling I have may be so complex to explain it would take time and in most cases I'm not going to spend that long talking to this person. In that case small talk is actually fine.
I don't talk about feelings because I don't see value in it. I might talk about my feelings or share frustration to bonds with someone but when it's time to do work feelings are useless and a waste of time
1. Because I said so. 2. Hows the weather?/small talk. 3. Tell me how you are feeling. 4. That’s just the way it is. 5. But I read it online so it’s true. 6. You’re being antisocial. 7. Don’t think about it so much.
I didn't find the first half of this video very accurate but I'm borderline INFP. I follow rules but at least explore the possibilities. I see the value in convention and working together. I guess I'm more INFP than TP the older I get.
Not always, at least for this INTP. I was once at a hardware store, and the cashier was very rude and condescending to me. I wasn’t upset about that, and I don’t think I would have been, anyway, but here, I was only confused about why my heart was levitating in _her_ presence in a way I haven’t felt before or since. I didn’t talk to her (past professional concepts), or ask her out, but I did think about it more than I normally would have, the feeling in my heart was so good. With her attitude, though, I couldn’t mentally mitigate the MeToo risk.
as an intp person, i hate it when someone say "the past is the past" when I try to solve a problem that still has no specific conclusion . They even said i was being overeact or overthink 🙄
I kinda get what you mean. I, personally, think in this situation, yes, the past is in the past. But we learn from what went wrong in the past so we can avoid making that mistake again. But if we don’t know what went wrong how could we learn from it? How could we prevent it from happening again? We need to figure it out, to know the conclusion in order to do so.
"the past is in the past" is a meaningless tautology. They just say it because they have nothing else to say and they don't want to think about the issue to come to a helpful statement. Saying you are overreacting or overthinking, is just changing the subject to you, rather than commenting on the issue, because, again, they have nothing to say about it, and don't want to think about it. It's ad hominem, logically speaking.
Generally, I hate it when someone says something like "you think too much" or "you're overthinking it." I mean, there does exist such a thing as reading into some writing when it's not there. But, to me that's more like a lack of thinking. And when people say something like "too long, didn't read", I more think something "you didn't care. You didn't look. You won't put in the effort."
I mean, yes the past is the past, even though technically the past and future don't actually exist as time doesn't actually exist. You can't change a former moment in reality, that's unarguable. However you can still look into it and analyze it so you can understand it so that if it comes back around in the current moment, you can solve it then.
6:40 I had a coworker call me Miss Antisocial because I didn't talk to her. Not only did I already feel bad vibes from her but being described as "antisocial" REALLY gets under my skin. Being a psychology nerd, when I think of antisocial, I think of Jeffrey Dahmer, Ted Bundy, Richard Ramirez, etc. Asocial is often confused for antisocial.
I like this point a good bit. Just because someone doesn't want to partake in some social activity, that doesn't make them antisocial. Antisocial means someone is against society. For example, an anti-social person would be against dancing because people will do something together. An asocial won't want to go to your dance, because s/he has something else to do. Or maybe doesn't like loud music. Or doesn't like the association with drinking or drugs. And I think that leads to another point. Not all forms of social behavior are good. Being "pro-social" is not necessarily better than being asocial. After all, how many people have done bad things for themselves like drugs or gotten convinced to do a crime, because he believed his girlfriend would like him more attractive if he did that crime or because his buddy wanted that crime done? It's not exactly a small number, I think.
Recently during the pandemic, they started the 'tell me how you are feeling' as a daily check-in. It caused so much anxiety in me that I was contemplating going full NC with everyone. I just had to tell my supervisor: 'Never ask me this question. If I need help, I will contact you; if not, assume I am fine.' This is logged in my permanent records. It's a non-negotiable. Now if I can tell other people not to ask me 'how are you?' even casually, I can save at least 30 minutes of extra productive time per day, which was used to calm myself after being interrogated.
Reading the comments as a fellow INTP, I'm so happy that I've found my people 😭 1. Yep. I go by my own rules. 2. Also yes. I give blank stares and give brief answers to the stupid question. 3. Definitely. I'm not sharing my feelings because of those reasons. 4. I guess so. I don't remember doing that though. But then again, I haven't had the opportunity to do anything. 5. Yep. Kinda. I'm a bit more laid back for an INTP, so it doesn't matter. 6. Oh my goooooood, yes. This is why I'm a loner 😂 7. I'm an overthinker so naturally I can't do that. If I act on impulse, I'll start to overthink obsessively about that decision.
"Yep. I go by my own rules." You wrote that in English, not a language where you made up the rules for yourself. At the very least, I know I laughed at that.
Boss: "I need you to do this thing" xxTJ/xxFJ: "Oh, I did that yesterday." _Next day..._ INTP: "So, I've been mulling it over, and I think I found a faster way to do it."
you reminds me of a teacher in HS giving extra credits to those who finish the problems fast, there are 5 problems and I did 3 because I made a code just for those problems. I lost 2 just because I didn't grab the chalk fast enough. Thank you for reminding me of those happy memories (I love to troll people smoothly).
Do you want to live under a dictatorship ? Il take fake democracy everytime in dictatoerships they have camps for ppl without jobs do you want to work intp ?
Almost any system of government can become bad when it's country's economic policies allow it to be corrupted. The stupidity we have been encountering lately is due to greed, corruption and carelessness.
I can have fun with this. My daughter is an INTP. I'm an INFP. We understand each other well enough that when I say all these things to her, she'll know I'm messing with her and she'll surely have some funny replies.
Why I was homeless at 15, and pulled away from the family by 11. I can notnlive under a thumb, fuck that noise. Even walked off a job cause they tried this shit. Big Daddy, I can walk out that gate just like I walked in. Watch.
What are me feelings? I don't really think about them...I don't operate that way. I never ask myself how does this situation or experience make me feel...that's not important, my mind is on analyzing the situation not on me.
as an INTP, 'How do you feel about the weather?' doesn't bother me that much, I percieve it as 'Oh, this person knows how to open a conversation, let's follow through'. I do hate small talks but small talks are needed in socializing, my friends always ask 'how do you do blank stares?' just because I prefer logic and still trying to learn about emotions (especially crushes due to it's annoyingness). and here's a tip to not be annoyed by those 7 things, just ask them 'why?' again and again until they found their illogical thoughts and tell them about your logic (I mostly used this in professional manner because it's pretty useless in mundane things except you like to explain things) and always avoid close-minded people because it's useless (I tried it with many types of people and most results in 'because it's what society wants'). Summary : - Those 7 things doesn't bother me that much because I see some value in them (especially because I like to explain things) - Tips on 'Because I said so' : Just ask 'why?' until they got confused or opening up to your logic Don't do it on close-minded people You may use it in professional manner but don't forget the context and situation
I was a real problem in Church and Sunday school because I was never satisfied with the Bible says so. I can never accept anything on faith. I can remember at age 7 asking the minister after the sermon "But where did Cain and Abel's wives come from?" and being told I asked too many questions and to go play with the other kids. That really pissed me off.
I just learned not to bother asking too many questions. Easier to find the answer by following the logic in my own head. And much less interactions with people.
It's metaphysical. If God also created logic (or has a higher form of it), then one can't prove or disprove God. However, the Bible has logic, so I can choose to believe in it (which is not logical).
Same here. But the only different response is from my mom. She told me that she genuinely didn't know the answers and the only way i could get them was If i built a relationship with God and asked Him directly.
as an intp i agree small talk sucks now talking about theoretical light speed drives or how the values of infinities work with each other that's what I'm talking about
This is going into the book I'm writing. As an INTP, I am upset by being told "I know what you mean" by someone who is giving every sign that they don't know what I mean. Or its close cousin, "No, you don't mean that. You mean..."
I don't think that INTPs lose energy in groups. It's that they are analyzing and thinking through the conversations taking place, and as a result they are forced to follow the many different perspectives being shared and, most either do not make sense or they have little to do with logic at all. In the first case, the INTP must use their minds to trace illogical thought processes of others, and in the case of scatterbrained people, it's like following spaghetti code. It would be like the tediousness of trying to do maintenance on computer code written by a monkey, a stoned dude or someone who wanted their code to be extremely difficult to understand... like naming a variable intNumDogs to hold the number of horses in North America. So it's extremely fatiguing for an INTP to follow such people and not feel like your mind was dragged through a sewer. I believe INTPs prefer to be around teams or individuals that have a sartorial elegance to their thoughts or who can cut through layers of complexity and bring forth brilliance in simple and concise terms. Like E = mc2.
For the record, there's no "right" version of any personality type behavior. The type itself might exhibit some of those, but if you're talking about people who identifies as this type, the possibilities for their behavior are endless. I actually saw a few logical flaws (well, according to my understanding and knowledge) in this video, which pissed me off a little Basically, having traits described in this video does not make anyone that has them 100% INTP, it's mainly an identity, not the actual personality itself, so your agreeableness and conscientiousness, and other dimensions may be wildly different.. As for example your neuroticism, it's different in every person and can change with time. To be honest, stuff that was said in this video applies to INFPs as well, except a few other parts that I won't mention here What makes me not consider this explanation is that it's not really accurate to me logically, but I appreciate the effort
I hate argue with people who stands on their argument that is untrue and miss information from the beginning. That's why I isolate myself. People are don't want the true and don't want to think. They want ego boost
I’m a great employee trainer bc I know ppl need to know the reason, logic or function which is going on behind the scenes which their task is crucial to the process. I am also an EH&S trainer and ppl will follow the “rules” when they know the reasons and logic behind it.
3:21 I never know how to answer how I was feeling HOWEVER do not discredit someone as an INTP just because they ask about your emotions. (Don't refute someones type without proper concern for having a discussion. Example "you're not an INTP 'insert angry words blah blah blah'" is bad and ignorant where as "I'm seeing more of an INFJ tendency in this right here, just what I'm observing" opens up for someone to say "Oh, interesting. I'll think about that." or "Yeah, I believe I developed my Ni due to circumstances in my job where it was more applicable than Ne but my brain still defaults to Ne first." They may just be trying out a new approach because socializing is really awkward and invalidating who they are just because they step out of their comfort zone in the pursuit of growth that would be a big fat checkmark for 'I don't want to waste my efforts on this' INTP HAVE Fe! How people feel does effect them but they wouldn't -lead- with how another is feeling. INTP has sub types just like every other type depending on what they choose to develop and ignore in their growth. Some INTP will realize that their weak spot in friendships is that they ignore talking about how the other is feeling and might say "You doing ok?" just to practice. Also as an INTP being accused on not caring about other people and getting in arguments, just because I didn't check in with my friends or considered feelings before information, got tiresome. Mental health issues due to isolation since I was before 10 didn't help but I'll spare those details. Also, online, I refused to use emoji for the longest time. I started using them because people would blow off at me for just explaining what I was analizing. So I started adding 😅 and such because my Ti + Ne realized that oh? when I do that people don't do that annoying thing where they take things personally and ignore every thing I said and intended to say die to their own disposition bias. Another thing is we protect and hide our emotions more than most of us care to realize or admit. So don't be surprised that we have emotions too that will manifest into frustration and sometimes self abuse (that we wont let people know about because they all say the same boring unhelpful things) So don't discredit an INTP if they show feelings and certainly do NOT expect them to show you emotions or emotional commitment because that raises red flags among is just outright uncomfortable. My sister would get pissed at me all the time for not being emotion-centric (she's ENFP) so I ended up not showing any emotion and just backing away from our relationship coldly. I explained my boundaries and they were ignored anyway so it's again our a way we protect out emotions that we are aware of which cause more complications than solutions.
Over my many years of being this type (68 of them, so far), I discovered that when I find myself thinking and thinking about a problem or situation (overthinking), what I really need are data - information. In general, the "thinking" part of solving a problem is very nearly instantaneous. Once that last bit of data comes along, the solution becomes obvious. I don't spend a lot of time thinking. I spend a lot of time researching, reading and studying. As with the rest of you, I have a high tolerance for ambiguity, but when it gets in the way of moving forward on a project or a problem, it's time for me to do some research, even if it leads to a wider array of possible solutions.
8! Generalizations! Some of these videos tend to make generalizations of type and leave out variables within the atmosphere to which a INTP person is brought up in! That in a manner of speaking is throwing stuff against a wall and seeing if it sticks.
As an INTP (Ti-Ne-Si-Fe), you forgot to mention the cognitive functions besides the brief reference to Ne (Extroverted iNtuition). Still, it was somewhat accurate to me. When I hear because I said so, I instantly go to a sarcastic and mocking comment like, “Great reasoning.” It is irrational to me. People will also say, “You don’t need a reason,” which I know, but the reason would bring more understanding and be more helpful. Also, “It is what it is” implies that you aren’t going to try and change that, which is also irrational to me. In my old school, I would point out inconsistencies in rules, but they would say that, and I wouldn’t like it. I don’t care if that’s how it is, because it’s flawed, so we should fix it in my opinion.
As an intp with well developped inferior function Fe I understand the how you feel. Sometimes i can play along to make the other person not worry, or just be honest and them about my body's physiology, like I'm horny, I'm sick, i feel a headache. Otherwise it might trigger my Shadow Fi and makes me feel anxiety and fear
"that's just the way it is" is a way of life for me, an INTP. Or maybe more specifically, "that's the way she goes." There is very little we can actually influence in life, dwelling on those things is just a waste. Now that doesn't stop me from spacing out and thinking about what I could do if I was omnipotent, but you need to realize and accept when you're powerless.
8:57 very true, I asked a guy to prom and I had an entire explanation for how I did it. I couldn’t text him cuz that’s puke be lame, and asking in person is too scary so I gave him a Valentine’s Day card asking him to go with me. I also gave a Valentine’s Day card to all of my other friends saying other things, so it’d seem like I asked him to prom as a friend in a platonic way and not in an “I have a crush on you way”
"Because I said so." Why? "Because that's the rule." Why? "It's worked just fine for the last 20 years." How is the Roman Empire doing these days? "Just do it." Fine. *Initiate malicious compliance.exe*
Typically after going out and socializing, I black out once I get home. I sleep for hours. Unrelated, I can agree with most of these statements. I live around Fe doms, and particularly, this infj.. They say phrases like this often and at times I feel so annoyed. I attempt to explain how it bothers me then I am told that I am too sensitive. I felt as though I was wrong to be upset but I am not sure.
We only share feelings with friends because it takes is 20 minutes just to express how we feel. We don't say we are happy, we explain the logic and reasoning of why we are happy.
The first statement he made can explain one of the reasons why I kept getting beatings as a kid, but my brother who was actually breaking the rules didn’t. I would be like what do you mean cause you say so, huh? Crazy mother took it as a challenge, but I was not challenging her. I was asking for the rational. Only if I knew this in the past. I could have save myself years of suffering and repetitive beatings.
I am INTP, with high N, and the P almost off the chart. I always ask "why" which is frequently seen as challenging, but it's because I want to know the thinking so I can use it next time that situation comes up. Also, I don't usually share my feelings unless I really trust the other person, and I'm not the type who has to share my opinions all over the place.
Small talk drives me insane. Although I think I'm deeply introverted, so that rule probably goes double for me. There is nothing more terrifying for me than a family get-together. Because all I'm going to have to say to anyone is small talk... I get drained just thinking about it.
8: "You didn't do this thing (when I di_)/you did this thing (when I didn't)!" Maybe it's just me, but being falsely accused of doing or not doing something really grinds my gears.
I would respond with English sarcasm: "How do you enjoy the weather?" "usually fried with some mayo" or something like that - returning blank stares assured
tbh, I disagree about number 2. I like being asked generic stuff like 'hows the weather' because I'm usually the only one who actually gives a detailed and genuine response, which then leads into further conversation.
I'm an intp - i must say i do think that's funny 🤣🤣😂🤣 But i think if u were in his shows i wouldn't understand it's a joke, hopefully you're crush is better at this things
@rawr1248 There’s a RUclipsr on here named Estee Williams who is great on teaching ladies how to be better partners. Good to hear about the boyfriend. How are you two holding up?
I hate the "this is how we do it" answer when there is ZERO thought as to why it's done that way. I'm not going to do something a certain way simply because I'm told that's how it's done. I'll analyze it and if i find a better way of doing it I will, even if it causes problems for others. I'm not here for other people's benefit or pleasure. I also have no interest in socializing. My ex used to call me antisocial and I tried to explain that i have nothing against socializing but it's that i don't NEED it. I then told her that the best conversations I've ever had are with myself when I'm alone so why would i ruin a good thing by bringing someone dumb into it. She didn't get that i was referring to her.
I'm not sure I can agree with the being super picky with clothing. We don't care what people think about us, I just wear what I wear. There's nothing to over analyse about fashion, as fashion is an extroverted area. As long as what I'm wearing is clean and comfortable it's good enough. What I wear is small potatoes. Sure to a degree it would differ, say if you have a job interview then some thought would go into it. Though we would logically think it's stupid to hire someone based on the clothing they were. And we see it as pointless hoops to jump through. But if it's "asking out a girl" we aren't going to construct some fake image of ourself to to it through OMG WHAT DO I WEAR!
I can get emotional if u hurt me, im gonna try to understand why u hurt me. If i can not understand, im gonna get emotional. And flip..if u cannot explain or ignore why u hurt me why u don't know why u , "stole" "cheated" "lie" i will get upset..with u..extremely upset, I will.never speak to u again
What "overanalyzing" or "overthinking"!? We are not idiots who can't understand that time, resource, and thinking power is finite(tho it does seem like unlimited to us as we enjoy thinking so much), and that there are priorities in life at times. Obviously, in simplified generalization, we will classify things into "needing", or "not-needing" a full analysis, and "tbd," and then prioritize based on circumstance, importance, urgency, time needed, our interest/passion at the moment, etc. The process to filter which matter we dwell on could get complicated in real life and depends on individuals, but I believe that we do always aim to be selective instead of trying to be thorough on everything(after all, we tend look at forest instead of trees).
I think the small talk bit bears qualification. Depends on the pre-existing relationship with the small talker. Also, don’t use Snowden as an example. There are many INTPs that are career servants in the US Intelligence Community because they know those rules, understand them, and work diligently to enforce them for the public good. That’s not at all what buddy was doing.
im an intp and small talk doesn't even bother me. i mean sure its pointless and all but its just part of the motions, you know? look at school for example, i mean it sucks but i cant even bring myself to mind it anymore. i just go through those motions.
If someone says,”Are you enjoying the weather?” I don’t care if their being nice or trying to start a conversation, just choose something else that actually makes sense. Ask my about my emotions? My response: Eh nothing?
Most if this is accurate, but at 45 yeas old I have a far better relationship with feelings (both my own and those of others) than at any point in my life. This is largely because life experience and considerable research have shown me both internal logic and the irreplaceable value of emotions. Our intellects are hobbled when we don't integrate the full range of our capabilities. Also, read Iain McGilchrist.
Sick and tired of being totally unable to discuss any of my interests because of the willful ignorance of others. Family, friends, coworkers, I can't be myself around them. In fact, people often treat me like I am stupid or mentally ill simply because they have no understanding of what I'm talking about. Fucked up by making a joke during the solar flares at my job in a machine shop: "Remember guys, if our machines error out this week we can blame the sun" They all think I'm some crazy person that believes in magic or something because they don't know what solar flares are. Silly people, magic lies in the collapse of the wave function and it's potential interplay with consciousness If your most basic understanding is beyond the people around you it just leaves you feeling infuriated and lonely
6:40 for real i cut my friendship with someone online just because she claimed i have antisocial disorder, I started acting mean to her and saying let's end our friendship then
1. Because I said so. 2. Hows the weather?/small talk. 3. Tell me how you are feeling. 4. That’s just the way it is. 5. But I read it online so it’s true. 6. You’re being antisocial. 7. Don’t think about it so much.
There isn't such a thing as the ''worlds smartest'' personality type. Now INTP's are likely to be intelligent, but MBTI doesn't differentiate on intelligence. Secondly, the I as a first letter means that your dominant function is introverted, but it doesn't necessarily mean they're socially introverted, these are two different things. Now with the INTP it's OFTEN true, but it's an important distinction.
Did we miss anything on this list? Let us know!
yes you are missing something it has to do with the I in the Intp you just summarized it as being they are introverted it is much deeper than that But it is introverted thinking at the top which makes them more Introverted but does not = introverted
You miss to talk about the cognitive functions

Yes.
not just others, i get mad at myself when im stupid too
@@helmetongrass1893 Yes.

YESSSS
I especially hate being told "because I said so" and "that's just the way it is." You don't earn respect just by virtue of your position or title. Also, the reason why things are the way they are is because there are idiots who accept the situation unquestioningly.
Truth
Have you tried asking 'Why?' to them? in my experience most of them became better on being a leader by telling them (or making themselves know they're being illogical) since Highschool... I did it because I like to see their face realizing their being an asshole leader/upper status and loosing some if their man's respect.
INTP's are very much fans of the line "respect is earned not given"
often why im sure many of us are considered rebels and politically incorrect or trouble makers
Agree with all but the last bit. Reality is the way it is because it's that way. We look to UNDERSTAND what leads things to be the way they are, but no matter what it is you understand, the result is always that's the way it is. Humans don't control reality, we can't change it. That's ego at play. Everything goes exactly as it was always meant to. That doesn't mean we don't look into the HOW and WHY, but learning the how and why is only for our own understanding. Why is the sky blue? Ahh I see that's why. Nothing you can do with that information. Reality is reality. It's like learning how a magician does his tricks, we understand it, but doesn't mean we can change his tricks lol.
You most common answer you will find when asking the religious nutcase about their beliefs.
As an INTP, I’ve only used small talk as a gateway to a much deeper intellectual conversation.
It's so hard though. Most people talk about what they ate or what they will eat for dinner. What movie they watched last night. So boring. At least that's my experience in England."Work experience" In general life I don't talk to people at all. Not interested in what they have to say.
As an INTP, I've never used small talk...
@@oskars82Thing is, one time I started pondering what actually is small talk, and I find it so hard to define. I start to think that I have too much bias on the so call “small talk” and if I work hard enough, I can always make it a more interesting conversation.
I pretend not to see people I know at the store because I don't want to have to stop and talk to them.
@@kitchencarvings4621I will however, stop and talk to the individual if he is someone interesting and intellectually stimulating though.
Agree on the points. As an INTP when I get asked "how are you feeling?", "how was your weekend?" "how's everything?" my response will be "nothing much", "nothing special", "no special feelings", "ok" and in actual fact, I really think they sum up how I feel. But a lot of people will think I am being anti-social, aloof or don't wish to engage with them, when that's not really the case. 😂
Totally understandable 😂
"no special feelings" 😂
True though and I usually find these questions annoying because how would I, for example, remember what I did in the weekend? And why would it matter? Plus even if I did remember they probably won't find it interesting 🧡 we could have an awkward conversation of me explaining my latest introverted endeavours and they could look at me like I'm crazy or uncomfortably pretend to care, or I could say "nothing much" and spare us both so we could talk about something else.

Anyone notice that INTPs usually aren't political? I'm not because politics and logic simply don't work together...
"One of the reasons people hate politics, is that truth is rarely a politician's objective. Election and power are."
I only think of politics because of the idea of making my country better.
But because you have to be dirty and be forced to do somethings in order to keep your position, i gave up the idea!
I lost complete interest in politics because its about us versus them thinking which is the base component of all the atrocities committed against people groups. Plus truth is not what politics are about anymore its all smoke and mirrors. Its become a blame game which prevents any real change for people being done. Corrupted system...
I'm supposedly an INTP and I can be, have been, strongly politically opinionated. What I can't stand are activists and campaigners.
Politics are largely objective. However, people treat politics like it’s entirely subjective.
as a intp the only reason why i don't tell others about my feelings is because i would feel as if im a burden to them and i don't want to annoy someone with my problems
You're definitely not alone in that. Based on what I can tell, most INTP's have the same or similar perspective
Yes agreed. Also that the feeling I have may be so complex to explain it would take time and in most cases I'm not going to spend that long talking to this person. In that case small talk is actually fine.
Me too, often. But it's because I've learned that usually they don't WANT to know how I'm feeling, so it's better not to tell them. Just say "fine."
I don't talk about feelings because I don't see value in it. I might talk about my feelings or share frustration to bonds with someone but when it's time to do work feelings are useless and a waste of time
So true, my friend suicide and I didn't want to bother other friends with expressing him my feelings. Just said that I won't burden him.
1. Because I said so.
2. Hows the weather?/small talk.
3. Tell me how you are feeling.
4. That’s just the way it is.
5. But I read it online so it’s true.
6. You’re being antisocial.
7. Don’t think about it so much.
Thx, I can skip the vid now 😉
As an INTP, this made me want to punch something
Never condescend them, they will get angry.
True
I didn't find the first half of this video very accurate but I'm borderline INFP. I follow rules but at least explore the possibilities. I see the value in convention and working together. I guess I'm more INFP than TP the older I get.
I’ve told more than one person that condescension is more effective from above.
Not always, at least for this INTP. I was once at a hardware store, and the cashier was very rude and condescending to me. I wasn’t upset about that, and I don’t think I would have been, anyway, but here, I was only confused about why my heart was levitating in _her_ presence in a way I haven’t felt before or since. I didn’t talk to her (past professional concepts), or ask her out, but I did think about it more than I normally would have, the feeling in my heart was so good. With her attitude, though, I couldn’t mentally mitigate the MeToo risk.
Why do you feel the need to tell me this?!
OK, I laughed a lot at that.
as an intp person, i hate it when someone say "the past is the past" when I try to solve a problem that still has no specific conclusion . They even said i was being overeact or overthink 🙄
I kinda get what you mean. I, personally, think in this situation, yes, the past is in the past. But we learn from what went wrong in the past so we can avoid making that mistake again. But if we don’t know what went wrong how could we learn from it? How could we prevent it from happening again? We need to figure it out, to know the conclusion in order to do so.
"the past is in the past" is a meaningless tautology. They just say it because they have nothing else to say and they don't want to think about the issue to come to a helpful statement. Saying you are overreacting or overthinking, is just changing the subject to you, rather than commenting on the issue, because, again, they have nothing to say about it, and don't want to think about it. It's ad hominem, logically speaking.
Generally, I hate it when someone says something like "you think too much" or "you're overthinking it." I mean, there does exist such a thing as reading into some writing when it's not there. But, to me that's more like a lack of thinking. And when people say something like "too long, didn't read", I more think something "you didn't care. You didn't look. You won't put in the effort."
I mean, yes the past is the past, even though technically the past and future don't actually exist as time doesn't actually exist. You can't change a former moment in reality, that's unarguable. However you can still look into it and analyze it so you can understand it so that if it comes back around in the current moment, you can solve it then.
6:40 I had a coworker call me Miss Antisocial because I didn't talk to her. Not only did I already feel bad vibes from her but being described as "antisocial" REALLY gets under my skin. Being a psychology nerd, when I think of antisocial, I think of Jeffrey Dahmer, Ted Bundy, Richard Ramirez, etc. Asocial is often confused for antisocial.
Some social people have no social skill. They're mostly ventilating and exercising their jaw.
I like this point a good bit. Just because someone doesn't want to partake in some social activity, that doesn't make them antisocial. Antisocial means someone is against society. For example, an anti-social person would be against dancing because people will do something together. An asocial won't want to go to your dance, because s/he has something else to do. Or maybe doesn't like loud music. Or doesn't like the association with drinking or drugs.
And I think that leads to another point. Not all forms of social behavior are good. Being "pro-social" is not necessarily better than being asocial. After all, how many people have done bad things for themselves like drugs or gotten convinced to do a crime, because he believed his girlfriend would like him more attractive if he did that crime or because his buddy wanted that crime done? It's not exactly a small number, I think.
Antisocial is more accurate if you think about it.
the “tell me how you’re feeling.” are just a big no no to me. I’d either respond “I don’t know” or “Give me time to think about it.”
“I feel like a different question”
I usually end up downplaying it just for the sake of them leaving me alone. Like why talk about feelings when I can talk about Steve Jobs?
I feel how my skin reacts... and it's not telling me much.
Recently during the pandemic, they started the 'tell me how you are feeling' as a daily check-in. It caused so much anxiety in me that I was contemplating going full NC with everyone. I just had to tell my supervisor: 'Never ask me this question. If I need help, I will contact you; if not, assume I am fine.'
This is logged in my permanent records. It's a non-negotiable.
Now if I can tell other people not to ask me 'how are you?' even casually, I can save at least 30 minutes of extra productive time per day, which was used to calm myself after being interrogated.
Reading the comments as a fellow INTP, I'm so happy that I've found my people 😭
1. Yep. I go by my own rules.
2. Also yes. I give blank stares and give brief answers to the stupid question.
3. Definitely. I'm not sharing my feelings because of those reasons.
4. I guess so. I don't remember doing that though. But then again, I haven't had the opportunity to do anything.
5. Yep. Kinda. I'm a bit more laid back for an INTP, so it doesn't matter.
6. Oh my goooooood, yes. This is why I'm a loner 😂
7. I'm an overthinker so naturally I can't do that. If I act on impulse, I'll start to overthink obsessively about that decision.
"Yep. I go by my own rules."
You wrote that in English, not a language where you made up the rules for yourself.
At the very least, I know I laughed at that.
As an INTP, this is pretty accurate.
Im glad!
Boss: "I need you to do this thing"
xxTJ/xxFJ: "Oh, I did that yesterday."
_Next day..._
INTP: "So, I've been mulling it over, and I think I found a faster way to do it."
you reminds me of a teacher in HS giving extra credits to those who finish the problems fast, there are 5 problems and I did 3 because I made a code just for those problems. I lost 2 just because I didn't grab the chalk fast enough. Thank you for reminding me of those happy memories (I love to troll people smoothly).
Now I understand why I hate democracy
Do you want to live under a dictatorship ? Il take fake democracy everytime in dictatoerships they have camps for ppl without jobs do you want to work intp ?
Almost any system of government can become bad when it's country's economic policies allow it to be corrupted. The stupidity we have been encountering lately is due to greed, corruption and carelessness.
Holy shit...thank you....democracy is a poison. Republic......America.
I can have fun with this. My daughter is an INTP. I'm an INFP. We understand each other well enough that when I say all these things to her, she'll know I'm messing with her and she'll surely have some funny replies.
Hilarious. Ever since I was a wee lad, my trigger has always been "because I said so!"- That would guarantee defiance every single time.
Totally understandable haha
Why I was homeless at 15, and pulled away from the family by 11. I can notnlive under a thumb, fuck that noise. Even walked off a job cause they tried this shit. Big Daddy, I can walk out that gate just like I walked in. Watch.
"What are you feeling?" "I think I have a sore back."
What are me feelings? I don't really think about them...I don't operate that way. I never ask myself how does this situation or experience make me feel...that's not important, my mind is on analyzing the situation not on me.
as an INTP, 'How do you feel about the weather?' doesn't bother me that much, I percieve it as 'Oh, this person knows how to open a conversation, let's follow through'. I do hate small talks but small talks are needed in socializing, my friends always ask 'how do you do blank stares?' just because I prefer logic and still trying to learn about emotions (especially crushes due to it's annoyingness). and here's a tip to not be annoyed by those 7 things, just ask them 'why?' again and again until they found their illogical thoughts and tell them about your logic (I mostly used this in professional manner because it's pretty useless in mundane things except you like to explain things) and always avoid close-minded people because it's useless (I tried it with many types of people and most results in 'because it's what society wants').
Summary :
- Those 7 things doesn't bother me that much because I see some value in them (especially because I like to explain things)
- Tips on 'Because I said so' :
Just ask 'why?' until they got confused or opening up to your logic
Don't do it on close-minded people
You may use it in professional manner but don't forget the context and situation
As an INTP every single sentence of the video is so accurate!
Im glad 🙌
It is
apart from the misuse of 'antisocial'
I was a real problem in Church and Sunday school because I was never satisfied with the Bible says so. I can never accept anything on faith. I can remember at age 7 asking the minister after the sermon "But where did Cain and Abel's wives come from?" and being told I asked too many questions and to go play with the other kids. That really pissed me off.
I just learned not to bother asking too many questions. Easier to find the answer by following the logic in my own head. And much less interactions with people.
It's metaphysical. If God also created logic (or has a higher form of it), then one can't prove or disprove God. However, the Bible has logic, so I can choose to believe in it (which is not logical).
@@gregh7380 that is also the most convient excuse for the religious nutcase, 'because God said so' damn i hate that answer so much.
Same here. But the only different response is from my mom. She told me that she genuinely didn't know the answers and the only way i could get them was If i built a relationship with God and asked Him directly.
@@ValadrienLeonhart This amounts to throwing one's arms up and saying, "Who am I to think?" That never goes over well with me.
as an intp i agree small talk sucks
now talking about theoretical light speed drives or how the values of infinities work with each other that's what I'm talking about
This is going into the book I'm writing. As an INTP, I am upset by being told "I know what you mean" by someone who is giving every sign that they don't know what I mean. Or its close cousin, "No, you don't mean that. You mean..."
I don't think that INTPs lose energy in groups. It's that they are analyzing and thinking through the conversations taking place, and as a result they are forced to follow the many different perspectives being shared and, most either do not make sense or they have little to do with logic at all. In the first case, the INTP must use their minds to trace illogical thought processes of others, and in the case of scatterbrained people, it's like following spaghetti code. It would be like the tediousness of trying to do maintenance on computer code written by a monkey, a stoned dude or someone who wanted their code to be extremely difficult to understand... like naming a variable intNumDogs to hold the number of horses in North America. So it's extremely fatiguing for an INTP to follow such people and not feel like your mind was dragged through a sewer. I believe INTPs prefer to be around teams or individuals that have a sartorial elegance to their thoughts or who can cut through layers of complexity and bring forth brilliance in simple and concise terms. Like E = mc2.
For the record, there's no "right" version of any personality type behavior. The type itself might exhibit some of those, but if you're talking about people who identifies as this type, the possibilities for their behavior are endless.
I actually saw a few logical flaws (well, according to my understanding and knowledge) in this video, which pissed me off a little
Basically, having traits described in this video does not make anyone that has them 100% INTP, it's mainly an identity, not the actual personality itself, so your agreeableness and conscientiousness, and other dimensions may be wildly different.. As for example your neuroticism, it's different in every person and can change with time. To be honest, stuff that was said in this video applies to INFPs as well, except a few other parts that I won't mention here
What makes me not consider this explanation is that it's not really accurate to me logically, but I appreciate the effort
I hate argue with people who stands on their argument that is untrue and miss information from the beginning.
That's why I isolate myself. People are don't want the true and don't want to think. They want ego boost
I’m a great employee trainer bc I know ppl need to know the reason, logic or function which is going on behind the scenes which their task is crucial to the process. I am also an EH&S trainer and ppl will follow the “rules” when they know the reasons and logic behind it.
I’m an INTP and I rarely get political and is usually unaware of politics
3:21 I never know how to answer how I was feeling HOWEVER do not discredit someone as an INTP just because they ask about your emotions. (Don't refute someones type without proper concern for having a discussion. Example "you're not an INTP 'insert angry words blah blah blah'" is bad and ignorant where as "I'm seeing more of an INFJ tendency in this right here, just what I'm observing" opens up for someone to say "Oh, interesting. I'll think about that." or "Yeah, I believe I developed my Ni due to circumstances in my job where it was more applicable than Ne but my brain still defaults to Ne first."
They may just be trying out a new approach because socializing is really awkward and invalidating who they are just because they step out of their comfort zone in the pursuit of growth that would be a big fat checkmark for 'I don't want to waste my efforts on this' INTP HAVE Fe! How people feel does effect them but they wouldn't -lead- with how another is feeling. INTP has sub types just like every other type depending on what they choose to develop and ignore in their growth. Some INTP will realize that their weak spot in friendships is that they ignore talking about how the other is feeling and might say "You doing ok?" just to practice.
Also as an INTP being accused on not caring about other people and getting in arguments, just because I didn't check in with my friends or considered feelings before information, got tiresome. Mental health issues due to isolation since I was before 10 didn't help but I'll spare those details. Also, online, I refused to use emoji for the longest time. I started using them because people would blow off at me for just explaining what I was analizing. So I started adding 😅 and such because my Ti + Ne realized that oh? when I do that people don't do that annoying thing where they take things personally and ignore every thing I said and intended to say die to their own disposition bias.
Another thing is we protect and hide our emotions more than most of us care to realize or admit. So don't be surprised that we have emotions too that will manifest into frustration and sometimes self abuse (that we wont let people know about because they all say the same boring unhelpful things) So don't discredit an INTP if they show feelings and certainly do NOT expect them to show you emotions or emotional commitment because that raises red flags among is just outright uncomfortable. My sister would get pissed at me all the time for not being emotion-centric (she's ENFP) so I ended up not showing any emotion and just backing away from our relationship coldly. I explained my boundaries and they were ignored anyway so it's again our a way we protect out emotions that we are aware of which cause more complications than solutions.
How’s your fingers?
1:22 lesson learnt
do *NOT* join the military as an INTP
Currently in that situation, you play the game 😂
I'm just doing it to pay for college 😤
Or an INFJ
We are not intjs! And we have Fe!
Over my many years of being this type (68 of them, so far), I discovered that when I find myself thinking and thinking about a problem or situation (overthinking), what I really need are data - information. In general, the "thinking" part of solving a problem is very nearly instantaneous. Once that last bit of data comes along, the solution becomes obvious. I don't spend a lot of time thinking. I spend a lot of time researching, reading and studying.
As with the rest of you, I have a high tolerance for ambiguity, but when it gets in the way of moving forward on a project or a problem, it's time for me to do some research, even if it leads to a wider array of possible solutions.
8! Generalizations! Some of these videos tend to make generalizations of type and leave out variables within the atmosphere to which a INTP person is brought up in! That in a manner of speaking is throwing stuff against a wall and seeing if it sticks.
As an INTP, I assure you, this is pretty accurate.
Omg, “that’s the way we’ve always done it”. Is one of my most hated phrases
Over all I agree with a lot of this and I think it is presented well. It also covers some assumptions and clears them up. Thanks 👍
Love this, it's so accurate 👌💯
Glad you enjoyed it 🙂
It unnerves me.
Huh.. maybe I figured out why I became an athiest despite my entire family, both sides, being Southern Baptists.
As an INTP (Ti-Ne-Si-Fe), you forgot to mention the cognitive functions besides the brief reference to Ne (Extroverted iNtuition). Still, it was somewhat accurate to me. When I hear because I said so, I instantly go to a sarcastic and mocking comment like, “Great reasoning.” It is irrational to me. People will also say, “You don’t need a reason,” which I know, but the reason would bring more understanding and be more helpful. Also, “It is what it is” implies that you aren’t going to try and change that, which is also irrational to me. In my old school, I would point out inconsistencies in rules, but they would say that, and I wouldn’t like it. I don’t care if that’s how it is, because it’s flawed, so we should fix it in my opinion.
As an intp with well developped inferior function Fe
I understand the how you feel.
Sometimes i can play along to make the other person not worry, or just be honest and them about my body's physiology, like I'm horny, I'm sick, i feel a headache.
Otherwise it might trigger my Shadow Fi and makes me feel anxiety and fear
"that's just the way it is" is a way of life for me, an INTP. Or maybe more specifically, "that's the way she goes." There is very little we can actually influence in life, dwelling on those things is just a waste. Now that doesn't stop me from spacing out and thinking about what I could do if I was omnipotent, but you need to realize and accept when you're powerless.
8:57 very true, I asked a guy to prom and I had an entire explanation for how I did it. I couldn’t text him cuz that’s puke be lame, and asking in person is too scary so I gave him a Valentine’s Day card asking him to go with me. I also gave a Valentine’s Day card to all of my other friends saying other things, so it’d seem like I asked him to prom as a friend in a platonic way and not in an “I have a crush on you way”
Makes total sense
Back in my twenties, I tried be to a social worker. Social work is often part of the bureaucracy. I hated the "that's just the way we do things here."

Typically after going out and socializing, I black out once I get home. I sleep for hours.
Unrelated, I can agree with most of these statements. I live around Fe doms, and particularly, this infj.. They say phrases like this often and at times I feel so annoyed. I attempt to explain how it bothers me then I am told that I am too sensitive. I felt as though I was wrong to be upset but I am not sure.
Pretty much spot on!
i am an intp and i want to know what they are so that i can be triggered if people accidently say these to me
lol we got you
The weather one makes me laugh because as a logician I use small talk as a way to shorten social interactions in the workplace.
couldnt help but make a face with every quote even though I expected it from the title lol
We only share feelings with friends because it takes is 20 minutes just to express how we feel.
We don't say we are happy, we explain the logic and reasoning of why we are happy.
I am an INFP but I related to most of these
The first statement he made can explain one of the reasons why I kept getting beatings as a kid, but my brother who was actually breaking the rules didn’t. I would be like what do you mean cause you say so, huh? Crazy mother took it as a challenge, but I was not challenging her. I was asking for the rational. Only if I knew this in the past. I could have save myself years of suffering and repetitive beatings.
Small talk now i get it talking about things that dont matter
Pretty much
I am INTP, with high N, and the P almost off the chart. I always ask "why" which is frequently seen as challenging, but it's because I want to know the thinking so I can use it next time that situation comes up. Also, I don't usually share my feelings unless I really trust the other person, and I'm not the type who has to share my opinions all over the place.
Small talk drives me insane. Although I think I'm deeply introverted, so that rule probably goes double for me. There is nothing more terrifying for me than a family get-together. Because all I'm going to have to say to anyone is small talk... I get drained just thinking about it.
i actually love talking about the wheather, you don't, because it won't go the way you think it will.
8: "You didn't do this thing (when I di_)/you did this thing (when I didn't)!" Maybe it's just me, but being falsely accused of doing or not doing something really grinds my gears.
I would respond with English sarcasm:
"How do you enjoy the weather?"
"usually fried with some mayo" or something like that - returning blank stares assured
tbh, I disagree about number 2. I like being asked generic stuff like 'hows the weather' because I'm usually the only one who actually gives a detailed and genuine response, which then leads into further conversation.
That first one got me into so much trouble back in the navy
So true, you know INTPs well.

"You're being antisocial!"
"...I don't think you know what that word means."
I think the word they meant to use is "asocial" :)
Some knows, and I find it more fitting than asocial.
I hate the "this is how we do it" answer when there is ZERO thought as to why it's done that way. I'm not going to do something a certain way simply because I'm told that's how it's done. I'll analyze it and if i find a better way of doing it I will, even if it causes problems for others. I'm not here for other people's benefit or pleasure. I also have no interest in socializing. My ex used to call me antisocial and I tried to explain that i have nothing against socializing but it's that i don't NEED it. I then told her that the best conversations I've ever had are with myself when I'm alone so why would i ruin a good thing by bringing someone dumb into it. She didn't get that i was referring to her.
My mom told me I was not shy, just reserved.
I love being an intp, despite thinking something was wrong with me as a child
felt so good!!😂😂
I'm not sure I can agree with the being super picky with clothing. We don't care what people think about us, I just wear what I wear. There's nothing to over analyse about fashion, as fashion is an extroverted area. As long as what I'm wearing is clean and comfortable it's good enough. What I wear is small potatoes. Sure to a degree it would differ, say if you have a job interview then some thought would go into it. Though we would logically think it's stupid to hire someone based on the clothing they were. And we see it as pointless hoops to jump through. But if it's "asking out a girl" we aren't going to construct some fake image of ourself to to it through OMG WHAT DO I WEAR!
I can get emotional if u hurt me, im gonna try to understand why u hurt me. If i can not understand, im gonna get emotional. And flip..if u cannot explain or ignore why u hurt me why u don't know why u , "stole" "cheated" "lie" i will get upset..with u..extremely upset, I will.never speak to u again
What "overanalyzing" or "overthinking"!? We are not idiots who can't understand that time, resource, and thinking power is finite(tho it does seem like unlimited to us as we enjoy thinking so much), and that there are priorities in life at times. Obviously, in simplified generalization, we will classify things into "needing", or "not-needing" a full analysis, and "tbd," and then prioritize based on circumstance, importance, urgency, time needed, our interest/passion at the moment, etc. The process to filter which matter we dwell on could get complicated in real life and depends on individuals, but I believe that we do always aim to be selective instead of trying to be thorough on everything(after all, we tend look at forest instead of trees).
I’m an INTP and have trouble understanding some concepts, is that okay?
I think the small talk bit bears qualification. Depends on the pre-existing relationship with the small talker. Also, don’t use Snowden as an example. There are many INTPs that are career servants in the US Intelligence Community because they know those rules, understand them, and work diligently to enforce them for the public good. That’s not at all what buddy was doing.
Got me done to a T, the accuracy of my rebellious nature
I think you got this one right. Fits well. Now add high-functioning Asperger's on top of it, and figure out what comes out of that...
im an intp and small talk doesn't even bother me. i mean sure its pointless and all but its just part of the motions, you know? look at school for example, i mean it sucks but i cant even bring myself to mind it anymore. i just go through those motions.
I will only respect a rulebook if the rules were made in a sensible way.
The only time i talk about thr weather is when i started telling someone about climatic weather pattern 😂
And i can spent 15min explaining climatology
If someone says,”Are you enjoying the weather?” I don’t care if their being nice or trying to start a conversation, just choose something else that actually makes sense. Ask my about my emotions? My response: Eh nothing?
Genuinely, I get angry thinking about hypothetical situations where people tell me 'that's just the way it is'
You can definitely say "but I read it somewhere" but then we will make sure that it is true
im an intp i can relate welp
"You're anti-social."
You can say it to me any time without consequences. What gave you the expression that I cared?
Most if this is accurate, but at 45 yeas old I have a far better relationship with feelings (both my own and those of others) than at any point in my life. This is largely because life experience and considerable research have shown me both internal logic and the irreplaceable value of emotions. Our intellects are hobbled when we don't integrate the full range of our capabilities. Also, read Iain McGilchrist.
Perhaps, but the emotions have to make sense, otherwise, it puts you at risk.
Sick and tired of being totally unable to discuss any of my interests because of the willful ignorance of others. Family, friends, coworkers, I can't be myself around them. In fact, people often treat me like I am stupid or mentally ill simply because they have no understanding of what I'm talking about.
Fucked up by making a joke during the solar flares at my job in a machine shop:
"Remember guys, if our machines error out this week we can blame the sun"
They all think I'm some crazy person that believes in magic or something because they don't know what solar flares are.
Silly people, magic lies in the collapse of the wave function and it's potential interplay with consciousness
If your most basic understanding is beyond the people around you it just leaves you feeling infuriated and lonely
Lmao if someone asks me how's the weather I'll give them the DEEPEST weather explanation know to humanity
As an INTP I don’t mind small talk, but it’s super awkward and I am really bad at it.
Add another saying: “because that is my truth “. Makes me damn right angry.
6:40 for real i cut my friendship with someone online just because she claimed i have antisocial disorder, I started acting mean to her and saying let's end our friendship then
As INTP, I am too lazy to watch the whole vid. Can someone sum up it pls?
1. Because I said so.
2. Hows the weather?/small talk.
3. Tell me how you are feeling.
4. That’s just the way it is.
5. But I read it online so it’s true.
6. You’re being antisocial.
7. Don’t think about it so much.
@@EMichaelBall Thanks
- How was your weekend?
- Ok
the end
Usually small talk is used to pigeon hole if you pay attention.
“How are you feeling?”
“I feel I really like vanilla.”
Me being an intp watching this video carefully trying to find out what should people not say to me:
Being INTP means that you do not dismiss the possibility that you might be the one person on Earth who can solve for X.
There isn't such a thing as the ''worlds smartest'' personality type. Now INTP's are likely to be intelligent, but MBTI doesn't differentiate on intelligence.
Secondly, the I as a first letter means that your dominant function is introverted, but it doesn't necessarily mean they're socially introverted, these are two different things. Now with the INTP it's OFTEN true, but it's an important distinction.
omg i saw effy stonem in the vid , she's a true intp female (coming from an intp female )
