I hear INTJ a lot but is it possible that an ENFP would marry an INFP or an ENTP and be perfectly content? In other words...what does an ENFP need in a relationship to feel fulfilled? I would hate to be married to one if they were always wishing they had an INTJ...

Here are descriptions of INTJ, INFP and ENTP so you can tell me why you woul dbe fulfilled by which one and why...

ENTP
Nicknames: The Visionaries, The Searcher, The Inventor, The Originator, The Explorer, ThE Innovator, The Lawyer, The Rational Nerd

Inventive, clever, nonconformists, cerebrally and verbally quick, enthusiastic, outgoing, innovative, flexible, loyal and resourceful. They bond suddenly or allows others to think they are bonding so the other person is more vulnerable, sense of humor, can laugh about anything, creative, intensely curious, charming, visionary, inventive, introspective, pragmatic, informative, and expressive. They are most resistant to doing things a certain way just because it was done that way in the past. They likes to generate so many creative alternatives for improving just about any system, tackles challenges, loves to debate intellectual topics, plays devils advocate, plays one-up-man-ship, verbally quick, obsessed with minor details under attack of tension or pressure, capable of giving insult after insult, bad about finishing a project,laid back, nonjudgmental, and good conversationalists. They are not patient with people who are dumb on purpose, and they tend to be witty.





INTJ

Nicknames: The Scientists, the Critics, The Mastermind, The Strategist, The Rational Nerd

Solitary, self confident, pragmatic, system builders, direct, have to (and tend to) work hard at relationships, intuition can replace showing feelings, appear arrogant, perfectionists, anti-authority, awkward when it comes to love, obsessive about chosen interests, keep emotions on the inside so you will never really get to see it.








INFP

Nicknames: The Dreamer, The Romantic Idealists, The Humanists, The Healer, The Princess

Sensitive, loyal, polite, reserved, difficult to get to know, sees themselves as the ugly duckling, creative, gifted with language, good writers that enjoy metaphors and similes. They adapt well to change, enjoy unusual conversations, sociable, humorous, charming, pleasant, insightful, unorganized yet meticulous, bored by routine, perfectionists, won't finish a project if it can't meet their high standards, devoted to people and causes, flexible, desires harmony, laid-back, original, individualistic, sensitive, creative, inspirational, innocent, sense of awe and wonder, poets and verbal artists, strong value system, usually puts needs of others above their own, ability to see good in almost anyone or anything, puts those they love on a pedestal. They guard the emotional well being of others, consoling those in distress. They are adept at seeing the big picture, sensing patterns and the flow of existence from the past toward the future. They are often able to sway the opinions of others through tact, diplomacy, and an ability to see varying sides of an issue. They have an extreme depth of feeling and passion that transcends what others are capable of. They can translate technical jargon to layman's terms, strong desire to bring goodwill to humanity, can imagine inanimate objects like stuffed animals as having emotions, needs to be seen and appreciated, and when in love they need intimate time alone together daily to feel connected. They see the world through rose colored glasses, absent-minded, so lost in thought they may run into people or objects, switch from reality to fantasy, can make the mundane seem extraordinary, in love with love, wants ethical perfection, lazy at times

There are more to the types and the people themselves than just the descriptions, and there are a great many other descriptions out there as well, which help flesh out the picture of what it means to be each type. Suggesting that we pick the qualities that attract us from preprocessed, sterilized, paragraphs that you grabbed off of a book or website is insane. Ultimately it's a very individual process anyway, some ENFPs won't like INTJs or INFJs or the stereotypical matches, it varies from person to person. It's very possible that an ENFP would find you attractive, but I wonder why you're so sure you want an ENFP.... is there a reason?

Also... I know from your misguided thread about cognitive function tests that that's the reason you're listing INFP and ENTP as the two possible types you could be... which happen to be *very* different types, I *strongly* advise googling both or even just going to the 'INFP Articles' and 'ENTP Articles' subboards to read several descriptions of them, as it should be fairly obvious which one you relate to most after a little reading. Also, if you don't relate to either of the two very strongly, I wouldn't be at all surprised, as I mentioned before, MBTI tests tend to be rather inaccurate.


I realize my tone might seem a little... not ideal... so for that I apologize... my comments aren't meant to hurt your feelings but to objectively explain the relevant theories. I'm here to help.

I could marry an ENTP....

Why? Because I'm with one. He rocks my socks.

I know an ENFP guy who is happily married to a lovely ESFP. I know an ENFP girl who has been dating an INFP for years and years and they will likely end up married within the next year or two.

I'm no more attracted to the idea of marrying an INTJ, INFP, or ENTP than I am any other type. It really depends on the person.

I get along with the ENTPs I know awesomely! Could I see myself happy in a marriage to one? Quite probably. My dad is an ENTP so I already know what its like living with one (I think I inherited his brain because we can basically read each other's minds).
Any relationship with any type will have its difficulties (I am obviously sounding like a broken record now) but yeah, its do-able. :)

Is it possible that an ENFP would marry an INFP or an ENTP and be perfectly content?

Nope, not at all.

[My Sweet Stalin]

I'm pretty sure it's illegal in some states.

I would hate to be married to one if they were always wishing they had an INTJ...

I would be willing to bet money on that almost never being the case. xD It's about the person, not the type. Besides, most people go into marriage because they think whoever they're with is their best match. I'm sure you could tell if you were engaged to someone secretly hoping for someone different.

I definitely don't think "ohhh if only I could have these specific letters". It's more like "I hope a guy is funny, caring, and smart". You should notice that could apply to any type. C:

@Leia Lynn Henry I'm just curious why you ask. I noticed you posted a similar thread in another sub forum. Is this a survey type question or a study or a personal question?

[Dania]

I am not too sure if I could get married though.. so my answer is All or none LOL
