I am not an ENTP. I'm INFP. And I have plenty of (so called) "stereotypical" ENTP friends, and I love them! I love, love, love the ENTP personality because it has the right balance of seriousness and not-so-seriousness. There's this person who's a pretty good friend of mine. He's a good number of years younger than me, but we get along great. We have common tastes in books, films, pizza, and we talk about other people a lot (we're both a bit of a gossip :P). I'm almost a 100 percent sure he's an extroverted kind of NT because he's just so well-liked. He's not shy. He has people listening when he talks. But that's the thing - he doesn't really talk much. He's a bit quiet in groups. He's happy just talking to one or two people. He doesn't mean to rally people around, but that just happens. The more I read about his cognitive functions, I am convinced he's an ENTP. Just a rather silent one. Now - Do they exist at all?

Yes

[MegaTuxRacer]

Yes

[Cab_no]

I guess he is the standard ENTP, not an anomaly.

[Emerson]

Yes, my ENTP sister is quieter than me.

E/I doesn't dichotomise your volume. Or how must/frequently you talk.

[LexiFlame]

Yeah, definitely! I have three brothers and I'm part Italian, so I can be quite loud at times. But usually, I'm a quieter person. I like hearing people speak, and then giving my two cents on the matter. I could talk for hours at a time, but if I'm interested in what someone has to say, I'm happy to just quietly listen to them for hours as well.

How can an INFP love an ENTP? Never mind, yes I am rather quite, like a preying mantis with the head of a golden retriever, or a great orca with the body of a lion and the tallons of a bald eagle, quietly waiting and watching for his moment.

Yeah, we tend to be on the boarder of introversion and extroversion.
The thing about large groups is the conversation is rarely interesting, and it's more enjoyable to observe than it is to participate a lot of the time.
Typically if I have something interesting to say I'll speak up, but if I don't have something to add to a conversation I'd rather not participate.

My ideal number of people in a conversation is 2-4 people including me. Any more than that it splits into two conversations or someone gets ignored and it becomes pointless.

[Shinji Mimura]

If you went to college with me, you'd probably never see me talk.

This is only because I don't really know anybody on campus. Otherwise, total chatterbox.

But, yeah, the only other ENTP I've met in real life was super quiet, almost awkwardly so. We worked on a group project, and I found myself far dominating her in the dialogue department.

[NoelleShanice]

It depends on who I'm around, also I can't whisper worth a damn. It's like I'm talking low but loud.
