Is this a common problem with female entps (are men always expecting SFs?) or is this my own problem? what type be a good match for me? thank you -- joanne

A67 Am ENTP Woman and have to say that having dated an INTJ and an INFJ these two are quite different. The INFJ is very very clingy (BUT won't let you out of their sight in case you stolen away) but always says the right thing at the right time. They also get you to lighten up, The INTJ is cold at times but does give you the space you need to pursue life goals (very important to an ENTP!). I guess it depends what you personally need more of and what you can handle long term that matters most. I found the INFJ very caring but in the long term too much for me (I ended up desperately unhappy as I need more space / time alone). With the INTJ he personally didn't want an equal so this basically boils down to being with the wrong INTJ, which can happen (personally think this was down to nuturing issues in his family). I have met other INTJs who are okay with an equal and they seem just the ticket. I have on occasions met ENTJs (very desirable) and the sparks were flying there ... let me tell you. Not sure if I should pursue this kind of relationship or just keep as a friend. -- Julie
A68 I am an ENTP woman married to an ISTJ man. I find we are quite compatible. He challenges me and we have long logical discussions, but he does have a little trouble swimming the waters of the deep existential type discussions. I also find he balances me by keeping me realistic when my ideas go out into the realm of the fantastical. I help him too by showing him new ways at looking at problems. We make a good partnership. Before I met him, I did have a hard time dating. Like all us ENTPs, we have specific expectations. An important aspect of a man for me is high intellect. Another is permitting liberty. I can't stand a high maintenance man, or any high maintenance person. I need to feel free to do what I like with little restriction. When I am set free, that is when I will commit. Hmm, think in 'The Taming of the Shrew' that maybe she was an ENTP? We may seem cold to those we find undeserving, but when we warm up to someone, we can be real fireballs! -- Anonymous
A69 For the well-balanced ENTps find a well-balanced ISFp. -- jezrouƩ
A70 This is fascinating. I am an ENTP woman and share many of the issues. Although I have many, many male friends who truly appreciate me for my thought processes, I can't seem to find that one male to intimately share my life with. I can't tell you the number of times that I have been told I think like a man. On another note, I would tend to agree that in the last quarter century it is men that have more social constraints then woman. I blame the 'women's movement'. I think that the way women have aggressively insisted on equality in all areas has left men confused about what their role in society is. -- Anonymous

A71 female ENTP here. Try daily to soften my personality so as to better fit with the majority......Is that the correct idea? I have always viewed my individual way of thinking as superiour to those around me......Should we ENTP's try to down play who we are? -- Anonymous
A72 I am a female ENTP. I have dated the INTJ (too distant, and not in tune with me) The ISTJ (secretly trying to convert you to their ways of thinking and doing) ISFP (boring) ISTP (too moth and flame!) And now am currently with an ESTJ. He's a complete jerk, and totally happy when he's getting what he wants in life, but he's distant too. he only texts me when he feels like it~ even though he asked me out! he annoys me and yet I am gaga for this guy. craziness! -- Anonymous
A73 Wow. All an INFJ like me can say is... celibacy. -- Anonymous
A74 I'm an entp female and married to a isfj male. As partners and parents we work very well. That being said I do have to have a lot of and friends because I need to debate and discuss theories which my sf husband doesn't get. These are usually male but that doesn't bother my husband because as an entp I am very loyal, and imagining is always more fulfilling than doing. From my perspective, having a partner that practically balances me is more important that entertaining me. -- Anonymous
