I wrote a lovely long response to you, unfortunately, there was no point, I understand your opinion but I fear you do not understand mine; here it is in a nutshell: A mathematician works all his life on a problem, he starts with one small equation then works up to pages and pages of complex...

I cannot say that your explanation of Oscar Wilde’s quote is incorrect, because I believe quotes to be entirely subjective. However, in this context I was intending to use it to explain that we throw away the theories/views we had at age 17 and adopt new ones, we continue to adopt new...

hasn't anyone heard that quote:"I am not young enough to know everything", age means nothing, knowledge is not measured by age. I respect your opinion more for being a teenager, as your thoughts are not so clouded by the indecisiveness and bitter rationality that comes with age.

Respect.

It means something that is a puzzle, not fully understood and, just by existing creates thousands of questions Example: The world is an interesting place, but I do not enjoy it. Thanks. I kinda don’t know what classes I need to meet the requirements of a future degree because I'm not sure...

It’s time to choose my subjects for the next semester, and I’m conflicted... I know this doesn’t sound interesting but perhaps it will start to sound so when I explain why. Art, Psychology, Design, Biology are subjects that I find easy and enjoy, but they don’t interest me very much, they...

I'm thoroughly disappointed in how misleading the title of this thread is!

i'm not sure if i understand what you mean, but when the intensity of my own thoughts starts to distract me from the real things i need to focus on, i try to think about something that i find interesting.. but is very simple.. for example i might read a few pages of a children's story book. In...

Interesting, how many people on this forum start sentence's with that word! i do not blame you, i use it frequently.. but can we all really not think of any other way to define our feelings other than interesting...? I have not noticed it a often on other forums, could it me an intp thing...

Intp’s (depending on how strong their perceiving function is) are observant creatures, lots of their time is spent in their own mind. Is it not possible that we are the only ones who noticed that social blunder or picked up the quaver before answering the phone? I think most intp’s appear to...

we are all the same, end of thread.

why not just type them yourself? MBTI is a very simple system it’s not hard to type people without the tests. (your friends are probably ESTJ's or the like)

I can assure you that I experience similar frustrations, it is often so bad that I wonder what person my friends think i am because it is not me.. it is their misjudgments of me. In my mind there are the most wonderful ideas when I attempt to convey them the meaning fades, my idea is just...

I'm as amazingly fantastic as i always am, no i don't see a need for you to change it i don't use this forum very much (given enough time neither will you) i hope you enjoy your time here though, intp's are interesting people :)

ESFJ? well she doesn't seem like a feeler to me, apart from the things I listen above we are similar.. she has to at least be an xntx...

I know this girl who tested as INTP although we have some similarities, we can’t both be INTP These are some of the things she does, but I don’t. 1. She doesn’t mind talking about.. ‘normal’ things, the weather etc 2. She can finish any task no matter how boring and pointless it is 3...

Hmmm interesting. I think that lots of things that the majority population thinks are important are basic simple things, INTP’s have no interest in simple tasks they are interested only in the complex as a result they end up lacking in the capability to perform some simple tasks.

I love psychology! I don’t think there are many jobs in it that I would consider worthwhile. “To become a spectator of your life is to free yourself from the suffering of life” Be careful with treating people as test subjects, don’t detach yourself so far that people become nothing more...

I love the way this thread is going!! :D I shall let you guys organise this (no procrastinating on the list!) I recommend The Picture of Dorian Gray, I wouldn't say the book was ‘good’ but I don't use that term very much these days, it was interesting... very worthwhile.

hmmm The wonderful thing about yourself being wrong is that once you realise that you are wrong you are automatically right... the problem with someone being wrong is that once you realise they are wrong they are still wrong....

I don’t get it, how does this have anything to do with intps? This tread is just requesting a discussion with intps, is that all that connection with the topic?

^ How interesting.... no I don’t do this although I have always through of myself as being two people... but yeah can you tell me more about this?

............... On a less scientific note (I’m not sure if I read all the comments so I don’t know if this has been mentioned) I was watching some of the so called intp videos on the internet; they all seem really cold, I have never described someone as cold before but that is the only way I...

^ It’s impossible for there to be no interesting people! It is however entirely possible for there to be no people who interest you... actually come to think of it, as much as I adore interesting people they are forever disappointing me... they seem so interesting, their actions so...

I would like to quibble about the tests and their validity. lol, I agree with shoeless about intelligence, but I understand what DesertSmeagle means... I’m not exactly surrounded by people whose minds work like my mind and whose interests are similar. My honest opinion is that you...

/googles new avatar, comes up with dating site, LOL. Not the answer I wanted. There was a flaw in my question of course; I didn’t think it through enough to be able to understand the answer anyway. I forgot how disappointing asking questions is; if the question is to narrow the answer is...

not sarcasm. I'm actually weird enough to ask such a thing. interesting... how would one make a video about this?

Sorry but I don’t think that’s why you’re depressed, I mean that might be the reason, but it’s also not the reason... if that makes sense. ANNNNNNNDDDD EyeSeeCold, I don’t understand, explain. No, no this has nothing to do with this thread, I simply want you to explain how your mind is...

I’m not sure about the rest of you guys but I often get the feeling that I just don’t fit into this world the way I should. Take for instance in everyday life I come across many very simple tasks and yet I’m almost incapable of completing or even paying attention to it if it’s not illogical...

No, I never thought I was strange... in my world there are only two types of people, the ones that are boring and the ones that are interesting (strange=interesting, boring=normal) How often people have said to me “you’re really strange...” so I convert the word strange to interesting, and...

I found that video deeply disturbing, but then again I have from a young age disagreed strongly on killing animals for human benefit. I see no difference between humans and animals; if we skin an animal alive a human should be skinned alive too. We should not prioritise ourselves above animals...

Hmmm it’s almost is if language and this kind of thinking don’t coincide, like I need to convert my thoughts if I wish to communicate them. Converting them is rough almost like the sequential Patten in which words flow is different from the abstract way in which my mind puts thoughts and...

I guess I’m scared of people, I find its just such a struggle to force my mind to communicate with new people. Meeting new people is seen by my mind and ‘pointless’ so I find it’s not worth the trouble of forcing my mind into meeting new people. When I do meet someone new, I find it frustrating...

I when I find something that doesn’t make logical sense to me I tend to consciously forget about it rather than ‘guessing’ but my mind doesn't let it go, weeks later I will have a complicated theory out of nowhere for how it logically works. I figure this is because if there is something I don’t...

everything in my life is an experiment, i constantly detach myself from everything; my own problems, others problems and the world’s problems all blurs into the same thing; just another fascinating challenging mind game for my amusement. I have noticed (I’m unsure if this is an obvious...
