How many INTP's do you know in real life?

Do you get on well with them?

Zero. You're all my imaginary INTP friends. Thank you.

To my knowledge: None. My INFP friend and I get along wonderfully though. He shows far less restraint in his actions than I do. You would think it would be the other way around (by restraint, he has been known to randomly ask a girl if she had sex with her bf yet)....I just sort of blankly stare in a, "Are you retarded?" fashion.

Two former girlfriends.
One former co-worker.
One good friend I suspect is an INTP.
Three kinda-sorta friends (you know the people you like, but never seem to get together with).
One very friendly woman in Nevada who thinks I should move there because she really likes me (I'm not into her, but I like her).
One very friendly woman I came across on the internet (overseas) who I would love to meet. <<< This one is so much like myself it frightens me a bit when I think about it.

I get along well with all of them, but there are only three on that list who I would travel with for an extended period of time.

I personally know only one other INTP. Both him and an ENTP are my best friends; we have known each other since grade school. We get along extremely well, most of the time. He is even more detached then me though, which is a scary concept.

There is also a comprehension barrier sometimes. Don't make the mistake of thinking that those disappear around another INTP. XD

I have known many, But only 1 currently, my partner, And yeah we get on ok. There is a hell of alot of debates as i like to call them....instead of arguments. with 2 INTP's its usually a debate over who knows more about what and who is more of an expert

At least 4 confirmed, but I am at a philosophy department. One of them is my best friend from back home. Another one was my roommate, but a bit of a language barrier. The other two are cool, but I don't hang with them much.

Including myself, 2. But I don't really speak to the other INTP, even though we have the majority of our classes together.

To my knowledge, three.

I only hang out with one or two of them.
Mainly because the rest of the ones I know almost always decline invitations from everyone to hang out, and then frequently tell me they wish they had more friends to hang out with... lol.

Two. One (My cousin) highly respected for coming over for my last birthday and, unlike the rest of my family who were swarming around me enthusiastically, simply taking out his smartphone and playing Angry Birds for a couple of hours.

The other I've never spoken to but would like to in the future. Looks a bit like an orangutan.
