    As an INTP, the more lonely I felt, the less motivation I had to improve myself. I had to learn to process my emotions first. Now when I feel depressed, I lay in bed and think about things until I cry. Sometimes I cry for an hour or more. But afterwards, it's like a giant burden lifted from my shoulders, and I get my motivation back. I've lost 20lbs with Keto and fasting, I lift weights 3x per week, and I talk to girls every week. No GF yet, but I'm moving in the right direction!

If the latter happens, it ends up in a very messy explosion of emotion that lasts more than it should have lol

    I think it’s gotten worse as I’ve gotten older. Especially since I am working from home now. Every time I think it would be nice to have some company, I work out a flow chart in my brain about what I really want and it’s usually pretty selfish and doesn’t include being willing to coordinate with someone else’s life, and I talk myself right out of even trying.

      Agreed. I became confident after I danced on a stage with crowds watching. So confident that I became INTJ-like who does not give a fuck about anything until I got into depression. Hrck I was even popular with the girls because I was an honor student and mysterious. A girl even approached me 1 day trying to tell me that I am so mysterious she wanted to be with me and I just ignored her.

    As an INTP woman, trust me, the appearance part is the easy bit. We receive the peer pressure very early on from society imposing those standards on women to look good. The hard bit is building a life around a purpose, one I am still on the hunt for. Imagine if society actually expected women to have a purposeful life that dating becomes secondary... success of women is still measured by having a good relationship and balancing work and family lol I would say that society's standards for men need to be more wholesome, like appreciating guys who are, oh I don't know, nice, which can mean a variety of things, like being caring and considerate, having a level of emotional intelligence, knowing how to connect with people, etc. I'm sure there's a crowd of NT and maybe ST women who appreciates traits like those because those things can be a weakness for us.

    Here is some Ti max efficiency exercise: just sprint up a hill about 100-200 meters. Do it once if your out of shape and once your in good shape do it 3 times. I have to also recommend getting a barbell for strength training but as far as cardio and athleticism, sprinting up a hill a couple times is the BEST bang for your buck. And if you have poor running form it is all good because you have extremely low impact on your joints as the added gravity absorbs your impact, allowing you to run with maximum intensity. Warm up and what not takes 5 minutes but the actual act of sprinting up the hill takes about 20-30 seconds and will leave your heart rate elevated for a few hours so it is pretty insane as far as time management is concerned. I can say from my experience with getting really strong and muscular, you really don’t have to be this stereotypical INTP that isn’t physically attractive. I wouldn’t really talk with girls much but they will give the silent types a lot of looks if you carry yourself in a manner that doesn’t back down to competition from other men. It’s not about being loud and always getting into fights but more so just presenting yourself as someone who is capable of flipping a switch in your head to go from calm to extremely explosive. This is why I would add strength training and try not to be so much like the body building type you see in the gym, be more focused on strength and speed and the muscle will come naturally. I know from experience in a college gym where there seems to be more sexual competition in the air, that you’ll put body building bros in their place when you lift heavy with proper form that women will be checking you out more if you are physically (and mentally) dominating the men around you. It’s much more attractive to be squatting heavy or doing heavy weighted pull ups (lifts that are hard and bros don’t like to do, capitalizing on others weak points) than it is to be standing in front of a mirror doing bicep curls, portraying feminine qualities of constantly checking yourself out in the mirror like a woman. Plus you will develop a lot more masculine physique just doing heavy compound lifts with a barbell, trust me... a bit rambly but I just thought I might share my own experience if it helps anyone out there considering improving their fitness. You’ll turn way more heads when you put heavy weight on the bar than if you are just standing in front of the mirror flexing and shit, and the energy you receive carries over to life outside of the gym because you just feel so physically confident knowing you could jack up any of these pretty boys you see walking around.

    Fellow male INTP here. As far as exercise goes, I’d highly recommend a home body-weight machine. They use your own body weighted resistance to build up strength for every part of your body. The angle can be adjusted to make it easier or harder. It’s probably my best purchase in the past few years. The machine is lightweight and can be tucked away. It’s life-changing.

      You don't get bored lifting a weight without purpose, (here you don't lift for nothing, you struggle to be able to achieve New positions etc)
      If you become good enough, it will also be part of the ability you could show of easily to a potential mate to gain her interest "ohh, you are 40 and you have no problems doing a stable hand stand! "

    My experience is that we are not "unable" to date. Yes, we have functions that make it quite difficult, and ultimately we were not born to socialize.. But! For my part, I've read a book or two about dating and how to pick up girls on the street. And believe it or not, it worked! What is difficult for us is the part of approaching girls as often as possible. After a while, it's really not a big deal, and you always improve a little, but this freaking procrastination... that's the biggest problem.
    It is also interesting that I have often heard "how to deal with rejection". Somehow "for me", but help me INTPs, somehow I don't have a problem with this for a single second. I went up to a girl and she said she had a boyfriend, then I said my usual text "ohh, no problem, it was 50/50 percent anyway, I had to try" and that's it, I went to the next girl (of course if I still had the energy for it: D).
    I think it comes from the fact that, on the one hand, I see it as something that I should care about when a girl shows that she is interested in getting to know each other. On the other hand, I think the fact that I don't really care what other people think of me also plays a role. (or something like that) I read somewhere that we don't care so much about other people's opinions, only our own (roughly) and I think that's why. I'm much more interested in patting myself on the back for going there than wondering why I wasn't good enough (which, of course, is a terribly bad attitude in the dating world.)
    So yes, it's not impossible, it's just a matter of practice. I don't agree at all with the fact that we find someone and that "because I'm not sure I could find another girl" he should marry someone. I think that as an INTP, I have an ideal, a goal of what kind of woman I want and I use every little method to (of course when I'm not procrastinating) commit myself to someone who I find really interesting, smart and sexy.
    The main thing is not to give up and what do we know, if we want something, we collect all kinds of information on how we can achieve that something. (Just do it to get it)

I don’t want to go into a relationship until I feel I have so much energy and time available to enjoy a relationship. It’s like a checklist before I even attempt to approach women. And I know about gold diggers so I’m not unaware of this aspect of achieving success first and then blindly going with anyone.

The stereotype is that J's see P's at lazy and P's see J's as bossy. I found happiness with my super ego type, ISFP.

    Regarding Fi Demon and how it affects dating - it's rough. For someone who is immature, the Demon function is the source of their pain and hatred, and having this focused on how we feel about ourselves (Fi) is a really rough one.
    Fi Demon combining with Ni Critic: "I don't deserve that because I'm deficient" or Fi Demon combining with Si Child / Se Trickster: "I'm not good enough to do that, let's stick to the safety of what's known".
    Fi Demon can fuel Fe Inferior: wanting to make other people feel good so we can ease the pain we feel about ourselves.
    Overcoming Fi Demon will definitely help an INTP with dating, or relationships of any kind.
    You are spot-on saying INTPs have a difficult function stack, yet Ti Hero gives us the ability to solve these issues. We can logically come to realise there is no basis for having low self-esteem, especially if we are following through on our Ti-Ne ideas to better ourselves.

    Great video. Making the gym part of my lifestyle totally changed everything for me. IMO it's a game changer for the INTP because it tackles so many of their issues and weak points... Forces you out of Si comfort zone, strengthens your Fe as you grow comfortable working out around others and build your body, confidence, mindset. Also addresses Se because I think most INTPs feel awkward in their own body... being in the gym on a daily basis starts to change that dramatically as days turn into weeks, months, years, etc. I would also recommend some type of martial art, but that's a whole other discussion.
    Using your Ti to convince yourself that the ideal state is to be sexually desirable and a top match. Will help with the lack of motivation that we suffer... Gym, making more money, developing worldview, taking on more hobbies to become interesting, traveling. They all come hand-in-hand once you take the first few steps. Of course I am still far from perfect but I think this is key to becoming a well-developed INTP who is capable of becoming the sage and unlocking life.

    As an INTP woman... I used to just grab the first top and pants from my wardrobe, not thinking for a second about colors matching or how they fit. Clothes were only to cover what needed to be covered, no?
    In my teens, one of my sisters went mental about how I dressed and gave me the "basics"... Tight on top, baggy pants or vice versa 🤣 and some color matching... 😶
    In my late teens I began to actually care a bit myself and once I learned more about clothes and makeup it became really fun. And in school I could escape P.E by going to the gym so I began to love lifting weights.... Now I kinda hate how I cant wear makeup or my own clothes at work 😕 makes me revert and barely even shave my armpits anymore...

    Even though I am in a long-term relationship I was interested to hear your thoughts on this and I think you are right based on my own experience. I also was wondering if you are a follower of CS Josephs's method? I recently bought his INTP package and he has a video on ENTJ & INTP as the golden pair. This is the relationship that I am in and I have no reason to believe that I could find a better match for me. He goes into detail about why the relationship works best sexually (as you pointed out - Si is receiving whilst Se is giving) and emotionally. The two top videos that he shares on there are worth buying. I think he makes the most sense out of all the different people I've watched on TH-cam and see you using a similar approach but with your own understanding.

      Congrats on meeting and being with an ENTJ. Yes I believe they are the best pair, but us INTPs can make others work. They are a rare bunch so hold on! I am a big fan of CS Joseph I have watched many of his videos. That's where much of my understanding of MBTI has come from along with my own research. Thanks again for your insightful comment

    I found the hard part of the dating is I need to take a lot of time to observe and consider if I should date that person, because dating costs a lot of energy and they may not turn out a right choice, and as mentioned, the comfort zone makes INTP don't want to break up. however, if I take my time to think, people will just think I am not interested, and they will date other person instead. Any suggestions on how to solve this issue please?

    So I'm an INTP but I'm also a queer person, and I think my experiences are pretty different from yours. It was interesting hearing your perspective but not super relatable. I've found that I have the most success in romantic endeavors by befriending people, getting really close to them, and being honest about my feelings if I develop romantic attraction towards them. I usually befriend types who don't care much about physical appearance and highly value my insights and thought processes. Those are the kinds of people I want to form a partnership with, not people who dismiss me because I'm a little disheveled. Don't get me wrong , I absolutely understand that improving yourself and putting effort into your appearance is great, but I want to do those things for myself, not for someone else. Also, I will say, I think being an AFAB more femme presenting person works in my favor because lots of the INTP traits are not stereotypically feminine, so people find me to be unexpectedly interesting/unique.

    • @humanbeing1313
      @humanbeing1313 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Honestly it’s probably because you’re just a very stable person which means you’re probably the best a INTP can get and I think that honestly the LGBTQ has smarter and or more stable people because of how In touch we are with our actual selfs and desires if you get what I’m saying

      If you really want you could get into it again. I've just come out of two relationships back to back and I've rather found a place where I'm like: yeah I'm gonna go monkmode for at least half a year. Relationships simply aren't always worth it. Especially the emotional and time investment seems so worthless if the relationship doesn't end up being lasting. Best to invest in myself right now.

    The last time something happened to me that no matter how hard I try, I can't understand, we both liked each other, however I felt I didn't deserve her so I decided to improve myself, I focused on improving my grades and my lifestyle, but at the end she left me because I became a boring person.

    Is it weird that I don't care about how someone looks? If I date someone is pretty much because they have something to offer rather than because they are hot or something. As a female intp I really reaaaally dislike superficiality. Of couse I believe exercise helps you mentally and physically. But I don't go around judging others because they don't exercise. Maybe it is because I don't want to have children, but I don't like to see people as breeding machines.
