How many of you have met another confirmed INTJ?

**castalia** · 12-05-2011, 06:58 PM

Confirmed as in "has taken the paper or online version of the test".

**Analyze** · 12-05-2011, 07:05 PM

My lab partner for chemistry is INTJ. We schedule lab at the same time so we don't have to deal with morons. He is also my friend.

**liningSilver** · 12-05-2011, 07:12 PM

My boyfriend is a confirmed INTJ - he really enjoys discussing MBTI, and whenever we marvel at the strange ENFP-INTJ connection we have, I like to call it 'science'.

I dated an INTJ, my old CEO was one, I have worked with 3 or 4, and I have had several as friends.

In other words, I have been a very lucky person

My father was INTJ, confirmed. My sister is INTJ, confirmed, My brother in law is INTJ, confirmed. And I have met 2 INTJ from this forum in person (Muumeh and mate), and I have met may a dozen in the last 20 years.

**JC22** · 12-05-2011, 11:23 PM

My father is an INTJ.

Father: "Turn to the dark side my son!!!"
Me: "No daddy!"
Father: "OK..."

**IreOfDesire** · 12-05-2011, 11:57 PM

What's the point of this inquiry?

**JTG** · 12-06-2011, 05:36 PM

I chose the last option, because as far as i'm aware, i have never met an INTJ in person except through this forum, and people met through the forum have just been brief acquaintances at meetups rather than people i've actually gotten to know in real life

**millifly** · 12-08-2011, 02:21 PM

I wish that I had grown up with at least one INTJ parent, or an N parent for that matter. Would have made a lot of things easier.

**True Rune** · 12-08-2011, 02:29 PM

I have one friend in meatspace who is INTJ, and an older lady I know is also INTJ. I tested them both myself.

**Thinker** · 12-08-2011, 02:39 PM

Work colleagues
One is the CEO of company involved in R&D
The other is VP of risk in a large international mining company

...but even then I have met quite a few who I suspect to be INTJ's including senior academics, politicians, CEO's, other senior executives etc.

**erecshyrinol** · 12-08-2011, 06:40 PM

My ex-girlfriend and now a really good friend is a confirmed INTJ.

**Distance** · 12-08-2011, 06:57 PM

Over the years, I've met thousands of people and worked with hundreds. I've yet to meet a "confirmed" INTJ but there's one I used to work with, who displayed all the symptoms.

**elTee13** · 12-08-2011, 07:34 PM

Confirmed, I know seven female INTJ's and two male INTJ's IRL. I strongly suspect my mother and two (female) cousins are INTJ as well. I'd like to have two of the non-related females as girlfriends, not at the same time, of course.

**JulietCapulet** · 12-09-2011, 05:05 PM

I have been blessed to have met several wonderful amazing INTJs in my life. How can I ever say how precious they are. I couldn't live without them.

**DelphianEtude** · 12-09-2011, 11:55 PM

I've only met two people in person that identified themselves as INTJ, and I actually maintain contact with them.

One was a woman I met online who told me she was also INTJ. We exchanged emails and became good friends. Then she invited me to meet her at her own wedding. I ended up going and meeting her just out of curiosity -- I mean, what kind of person would invite an online friend they've never seen before in person to their wedding? She admitted to me that most people thought she was strange. I don't think she really liked being the center of attention at her own wedding. She's really awesome. We still exchange emails from time to time.

The other person is a friend I met in college through extracurricular activities. He's now working as an economic research analyst. Funny thing is that I didn't know he was INTJ until I saw his Facebook, but it made sense and explained why we clicked. I remember him as being an extremely focused and somewhat complex individual. He has a great sense of humor too, and is one of my few friends who actually posts practical things on Facebook from time to time.

**eagleseven** · 12-10-2011, 12:05 AM

My father is a confirmed INTJ, while my mother is a strong extrovert. Which means my dad and I communicate on a level that my mom has a hard time understanding. She still won't stop bugging him to go out and see more people, either.

It also means my dad and I will get into shouting-matches over the sociological implications of 14th-century Muslim philosophy during dinner, much to my mom's dismay. And we've had multiple-day standoffs over the marginal value theorem.

**e30sequel** · 12-10-2011, 12:58 AM

I made one friend do the online test and confrmd intj - after, I realized we were getting along a bit too well thus alienating the guy who introduced us - multiple stand offs later, good friend but more respect than anything else.

**Purgatid** · 12-10-2011, 02:21 AM

My mother, my GF, and two of my friends are confirmed INTJ.

**masterpeach** · 12-10-2011, 03:03 AM

Where are the "co-worker", "boss", or "roommate" options? (Companies often test their employees/managers, thus, chances are you'll meet people whose personality type is confirmed in work life rather than university).

I have met one confirmed INTJ at a conference, an ex-co-worker of mine also tested INTJ.

**CaelestisPeste** · 12-10-2011, 03:47 AM

None yet. Maybe because I haven't been able to identify them correctly.

**JackCY** · 12-10-2011, 05:28 AM

Hard to say, the amount of INTJs is already pretty low and those who take the test even lower, only asked my one friend to take it, IsTJ/IXTJ. I suspect to have met some classmates and teachers for sure but nothing confirmed.

**what yeah okay** · 12-10-2011, 07:31 AM

I've met three mature INTJs and about a dozen painfully immature ones throughout the years.

The hallmark of the immature ones is the Ni-Fi loop, the most annoying feature of which is where they jump to a ridiculous conclusion on an issue and hold onto it to the point where it becomes central to their identity.
