My husband is ENTJ and very lovable although I know there are people who hate his guts. Sometimes he cannot see the most obvious of things and that gets on my nerves. He can care without a reason and keep caring as long as he wants to. His patience levels are very high with a select few. With others he loses his temper and shouts his head off (for the silliest of things... I hardly react to his temper tantrums).
He is disorganized in general but spends an hour on fixing something that will not be needed until next winter. He loves little aesthetic objects when the overall scene a big mess. Fights with his 10-year old nephews over cricket and competes with them for toys. Hides things that he does not want to share with others but I always find out.
Dumped me horribly after we went out for 6 months. I ignored him for a year after that - came back, proposed and married me (after he found out about another guy I might have liked). Argues about things for the heck of it even after others have stopped arguing hours back. Baby talks with me coz he loves me like crazy. Has a small treasure box with school badges, trinkets, photographs and other sentimental stuff. Makes coffee and breakfast for me everyday. I think he is adorable.

you know you're an entj when your friends always make you the guinea pig and you gladly oblige
Writing simple little nice and warm thank you letters to relatives is a painful task
When your nickname is anything having to do with various dictators. Mine is "Hilter", "nazi", Or "Bonaparte"... LOL!
I have been called "The Democrator" by my girlfriend once during a minor stand-off.
When I asked her how she meant, she told me that "you're always asking everyone what they want to do, and how they want things, but it's still you who decide the agenda and make all the decisions. The opinions of other people are just demographics for you, and in the end, you are always in control."
I guess that in a way that is correct, even though I would not personally formulate it so harshly.
You may be right. I guess the specific name calling only pertains to me? When they say it, they usually mean to hurt my feelings. All my family and friends are F's and P's so they don't really understand my way of Thinking. For example my mother is an ENFP, dad was an ISFP, best friend is an INFP, other good friends are also very similar types Feeling types. For some reason, when I criticize, use my judgement to try to help them out or just give them some well-needed good advice... they see it as a need to control on my part and say I'm "Hitler" and I'm trying to rein over them. (Obviously they don't mean it in a literal terminology. What they really mean is Dictator. And I'm pretty our numbered when it comes to my Thinking and Judging). Most of them see me as some kind of Dictator because they don't understand that I mean well.
And I may be wrong, but your girlfriend sounds like she somewhat understands that side of you. My friends or family never see anything as "minor" when I'm having a "stand-off". They see at as a do-or-die situation... when really I'm just passionate about them doing what's right for them.
Haha - yes, she understands me. I really doubt that she understands exactly how I draw parallells, think and make decisions, but she can predict and read me and come to stunningly insightful conclusions about what I feel and think.
Also, she can handle a stand-off and deliver punchlines like almost nobody else. We have a lot of common ground too. Being with her has made me interested in art and history, and she's just begun to read up on natural sciences - an area that I introduced her to.
She can also tell me off when I am too controlling. When I reflexively start micromanaging something she's doing, she goes "so, who's doing this? You or me?" and I get the point and let her mind her own business.
