Im an INTJ female...
Wow, unusual indeed!
I have wondered if I would get along with a woman similar to me - either personally or professionally.
At times I am sure the answer is NO, because I suspect that I can be a real PITA from time to time.
At times I am sure the answer is YES, because there are times when other people can be completely insufferable.
I think there's a very good chance that you'd get along with an INTJ female both on a friendship level and romantically.
True we can all be a PITA at times...but another INTJ isnt likely to take it personally and have an emotional meltdown
Since there are so terribly few INTJ women I suspect this will be a moot point as I will not meet many, and have a much lower possibility of becoming involved with one.
You may not even recognize one if you met her. We're quite capable of becoming chameleons publically in that regard to "blend in" but as you know are extremely private people even if we have a good extroverted social side.
Its usually only if you develop a more than superficial knowledge of our character within a professional environment or on a personal level.
My own personal problems (with men) comes back to them either being the passive F's OR alot of times other dominant T's.
Passive F's feel they're being dominated (which is why they're attracted) and develop resentment issues and feel out of control. The relationships *can* become abusive although Id likely foresee and wouldnt enter into the scenario and never have.
If they're mentally immature T men with little concept of their own personality or my capabilities (because Im "female")...then their competitive side kicks in along with their ego and they find it necessary to compete against me (I find that alot as men are often driven by their ego)
With my intelligence level, my ability to strategise & switch and implement plans...and... being more than capable of alienating my emotions from a situation...it really isnt in a man's best interests to do it professionally or otherwise. Cos if you wanna compete...you gotta be prepared to lose. IMTJ's arent called the Masterminds for nothing...hehe...
Most men figure that out though and its not an issue. They earn alot of respect that way with me cos there's so few of you guys around too. Friendly competition...great...anything more...doesnt interest me because I think they're idiots if they havent figured it out yet (LOL...another INTJ trait)
As long as both dominant personalities respect the other (which I think two INTJ's would or ENTJ) and work together... there isnt likely to be a problem.
~Kyn~, good luck - I wish you well!
Thanks!
and to you too.
