INTP thread.
I can feel the meat on my bones slowly rotting as my mind races with unproductive thoughts. This is most unfortunate. Please feel with me, fellow INTPs, as we endure the pain of a godless and absurd universe.
All I want is to just sit alone in some quiet, comfy place without anyone who could bother me and read something interesting and thonk about useless shit.
Everyone shames me for it beacuse it doesn't matter what I achieved and as long as I'm not going out with people I don't like to socialise and "just be myself" I'm automaticly a failure.
Why do they do this? I just want to be left alone but everyone must fucking bother me, asking me to change myself but at the same time saying I should never change for others.
>>29890327
i don't say "just be yourself" but i do say "do whatever makes you happy."
if that means changing who you are to fit in, go ahead. if that means never changing and being alone, go ahead.
this IS a godless and unprincipled world so just do whatever you think will give you the least to regret in the end.
>>29889744
fuck you atleast you're not an infj you fucking normie
>>29890376
But I'm trying to do what makes me happy, I just want to be alone but each time I meet a family member they just have to complain about it and say that I shouldn't do what makes me happy but socialise and pretend I like people.

>be INTP
>get gf
>spend entire relationship theorizing about romance and how two people could "love" each other
>forget about gf's needs
>cannot "love" her if i have not decided what "love" means
>lose gf
EVERY. FUCKING. TIME.
>>29889744
I know the feel of the most wonderful moments in time, as an INFP
>>29890585
>acquiring a gf before deducing what love is
fake-INTP spotted, get out, reeee
>>29890739
>not getting gf for direct observation theory testing
>>29890769
and theory testing*
>>29890769
>not observing others gfs
>>29890820
>not becoming part of the experiment and observing yourself as well
>>29890769
>not picking out a gf by her personality type that you want to study and experiment on
>>29891053
>implying i haven't fine-tuned the conditions as much as possible
I never know what to post in INTP threads.
Any INTP's with jobs they enjoy/are satisfied with?
What is it?
>>29889744
>intp
>tranny
I got the worst combo.
>>29892049
so how did your feels win over the reals?
>>29892107
i dunno but it's been one of the only things to break through the reals
im going to a counselor to sort out my problems so i might end up not going through with it
we'll see
>>29891957
I honestly like mindless repetitive jobs so I can be free to think of other things
>>29892158
good luck, hope you can come to a decision that makes you happy in the long run
tbqhwy i too once knew the pain of being INTP and considering transition
>>29891957
I'd also like to know this. Right now i'm studying to be an architect, which seems to be a perfectly INTP job to me. I'm afraid that no one will hire me though on account of either a lack of jobs or my social ineptitude, or probably a combination of both :(
>>29892230
I share this feeling.
Working on being a mathematician at the moment, but if that fails I'd rather be something like a physical laborer than be a cubicle worker so at least I can keep my mind somewhat free.
>>29891957
>>29892230
I'm currently doing labor work (in particular, junk hauling) as a job and I like it for the same reasons. I don't have to think about it, it simple, and I get out of the house. If I was doing anything else more ambitious it would have to be something I love or I couldn't do it.
>>29892251
thanks
what stopped you?
>>29892394
largely dealing with past trauma, acknowledging why i am isolated, not allowing myself to continue re-enacting learned coping mechanisms
shit was hard as fuck and i'm still a mess but i figure it's better to be a male mess than a trans mess who possibly regrets not being male anymore
>>29891957
I work as a boom operator/sound mixer for tv/film. Everyone on set ignores sound department, or tries to tell you their problems. I get to watch other people interact and don't have to be involved. Also there are lots of problem solving tasks to keep busy with. As far as work goes, I'm "happy".

INTP's are made for the NEET life.
>>29892508
my thinking is that i can do hormones for a while and see if i make a good tranny or not
of course like i said im going to counseling first
>>29890501
>INTP
>normies in the slightest
I imagine like 80% of the board (not counting the normie scourge) is INTP
Iktfb
I used to feel so electric
A lot of what I thought was stupid, but I was experimenting and building and it felt good
Now I feel like you
>>29891957
i'm an industrial designer, in my mind the most intp job took me a while to find it and figure it out. I don't really even design products i mostly get paid to design concepts about what could be for companies that are afraid of getting uber'd...
>>29892563
Poster you replied to
Ive been thinking this as well and there is programming to get into but Im not sure... :(
>had one chance at MBTI
>get IxTP
>>29889744
ISTJ here. Any ISTJs like their type?
Idk what I should think of it. Its better than most others i guess
>>29892572
ah, i suppose one can always experiment. and hopefully this counselor can shed some light on things, or suggest a person who can.
you've worn makeup and stuff though right? like are you just taking 'mones to see if you grow nice tits and various fat deposits or what
>>29892812
I watched that movie in a old theater with friends. It was really good. I miss the old days.
>One chance at life
>INT(P/J)
Just fuck my shit up. This is absolute suffering
>>29892839
Really good movie, wish I couldve gone to see it in theaters
>>29892833
Every thought I had about doing so was grilled out by my mom
I did do stuff like shave my legs and fantasize about being a girl but I repressed those feelings when my mom responded to them with disgust
>>29892833
And it's mostly to see if my face has any possibility of passing as female
There's big tits on both sides of the family so I'd probably end up stacked tbqf
>Sometimes get INTJ instead of INTP
>the T side is usually very small and more down the middle between T and F
What does that mean
>>29894580
it means you probably read less books and watch more anime
>>29894580
It means that you should research cognitive functions.
What do you guys do for work? I've been fired from every job i've ever had because people get uneasy or something around me. Its weird and i can't really describe it
>>29894580
Which of these quotes resonates with you the most?
>A philosophy without heart and a faith without intellect are abstractions from the true life of knowledge and faith. The man whom philosophy leaves cold, and the man whom real faith does not illuminate, may be assured that the fault lies in them, not in knowledge and faith.
>The normal objective of my thought affords no insight into ... human will and feeling. ... There are certain psychological [truths] whose existence [I] may dimly surmise, but whose interrelations and vagaries [I am] incompetent to fathom.
>As scientific understanding has grown, so our world has become dehumanized. Man feels himself isolated in the cosmos, because he is no longer involved in nature and has lost his emotional 'unconscious identity' with natural phenomena.
>At this time my imagination took a turn which helped to calm my increasing emotions; it was, to contemplate those situations in the books I had read, which produced the most striking effect on my mind; to recall, combine, and apply them to myself in such a manner, as to become one of the personages my recollection presented, and be continually in those fancied circumstances which were most agreeable to my inclinations; in a word, by contriving to place myself in these fictitious situations, the idea of my real one was in a great measure obliterated. This fondness for imaginary objects, and the facility with which I could gain possession of them, completed my disgust for everything around me, and fixed that inclination for solitude which has ever since been predominant.
Yo' mah' mates!
ISTP here, even if from time to time, I tend to get INTP too.
No idea why.

Accounting, simple as fuck, make damn good money, no one really bothers you, you get to learn about different industries and how they function.
