A13 A11: Interesting description, but actually, most of what you describe INTps do I have experienced with both INTjs and INTps. But because I am an ESFp, INTjs hurt me a lot and I still remember the wounds while with INTps it is usually a huge fight but we are OK again the next day. I don't agree INTps are calculating if they feel they've been hurt. As far as I know, they don't realize they feel hurt, or realize it but don't say it and it comes out suddenly during a crisis. But they don't plan for bursting out. "They are good at finding weak points and striking with laser-like precision pointing out flaws and hypocrisies" - that's what I've observed with INTjs, not in INTps so far. An infuriated INTp is usually like „I feel hurt I but I won’t tell you I feel hurt, I will only hint it and then tell you that this and this was stupid of you.“ They strike sometimes, too, like you say, but then it’s unexpected even to them , not calculated, and they definitely don’t find weak points. If they were good at finding weak points I couldn’t be with them because I am scared of such people. I guess because their F is introverted they aren't able to "direct" their bad mood at anyone and they stick to their personal feelings regarding one momentary situation. Their T is extroverted so they're able to direct their criticism at anyone, but as it's their forte it’s their way of everyday conversation; it's their creative function and they soon become conscious of it and learn how to use it creatively. I haven’t witnessed an INTp pointing out hypocrisies; the only INTp whom I know to do this was C.S.Lewis during university discussions and in his books - it was kind of his pastime, not a result of being hurt. (again, Te as a conscious and creative function). This is probably one aspect of INTp duality with ESFps: ESFps are so open and spontaneous about their emotions they can gradually teach the INTps to express their emotions openly and immediately. -- Ezis (ESFp)
