My best friend is an ENTP and we get along super well. So many of our values and interests match. We both improve each other in the fields we lack in and this is just so amazing. He has taught me to be more open, bold and confident in myself. And in return I have helped him with his emotions and also made him more confident by being his biggest supporter and fan. I really love our friendship and he's the best friend I've ever had. I feel 100% free around him and can freely talk about literally anything on my mind and he always gets me, it also works vice versa.
Oh, and I just love how typically ENTPs are portrayed as confident troublemakers and hating emotions. But in reality they have a really soft heart which they protect by that image and I really love their that other side. It's so sweet once they let you in there.
EDIT: We have actually talked about what if we'd be a couple (which we can't be) and we both agreed that this would actually be a really fascinating and possibly very strong relationship. Because already we communicate very openly and let each other know if we don't like something (though it's very rare when we dislike something) or when we misunderstand something the other one says.
Great summary of this dynamic, thanks! I (INFP) have had a lot of ENTP relationships spanning from brothers, friends, ex-partners, and daughter. They surround me always! It’s definitely a magnetic & fun dynamic at times, but challenging in other ways. So, learning the function interactions has been very helpful. I’ll agree that it feels much better to me as a platonic relationship because - even with development & understanding - it was always a struggle for my FI to be intertwined with those partners for important life decisions because of the ENTP’s surface lack of sensitivity to my feelings/hopes and a resulting over-sensitivity to my own needs on my end - it becomes polarizing after awhile with too much proximity/dependent connection.
I know a lot about this relationship. My oldest friend was an ENTP. Unfortunately, he died a few years ago from cancer. We had lived together for 3 years when I moved to his home state. He was close by after I bought my dream house. However, we drifted apart a couple of years before he died. I had not seen his weak moral compass until I lived with him, and he refused to acknowledge that his niece was being physically abused by her husband. After they divorced, he minimized the abuser's actions because he thought he was such a likeable, charismatic guy. I wish I had known anything at all about MBTI at the time. If I had understood how weak Fi affects some people I would have tried to be more understanding. Instead, all I saw was his severely battered niece, and I freaked out. We were estranged when he died.
I’m an infp and I have a teen son who is an entp. This was insightful!
My best friend, also the father of my twins, and ex fiance is an ENTP. Him being blind to his values holds on to mine because he logically knows I'm a good person. However, because of, it became like he was another child of mine and I couldn't do it. Still love him too pieces though.
My sons a infp, he's so lovely, but talk about stubborn on their feelings.. I'm clean and tidy my sons lives in mess
