It started to make me wonder just how many of us have this personality and if a lot of us have it then would it make it very hard for other personality types to develop a MGTOW state of mind. Especially extroverted personalities that heavily rely on personal relationships and emotions. If you are interested in taking a 70 question test that takes about 15 minutes to find out what you are here is the link.  http://www.humanmetrics.com/cgi-win/jtypes2.asp    That seems to be the most accurate test that I could find and was very accurate describing me ( it was almost scary how accurate it was) .

Then again, I’m an engineer with degrees in two disciplines, including a Ph. D.  In order to get that sort of education, one needs to be focused on what one is doing.  That often means being off by oneself in order to understand what’s going on and to do so in an objective and impartial manner.  Analyzing research data or writing computer code often requires logic, reason, and a great deal of mental concentration.

When I wrote my Mensa exams, the one which tested mainly for logical reasoning had the higher score than the one more focused on relationships.  Similarly, when I last wrote the Graduate Record Exam, I scored quite high on the math component and not so much in the verbal category.

I am very introverted as well, however I am NOT the one for math’s and physics, I was let go from a glass research company, I only worked with them for 90 days, I was hired on for having an electronics background, Comptia Certs, in high school, and command and control electrician in the military, anyhow I had to get an engineering associates with this company…I told them NO, I would have set myself up for failure as it was 63 credits in math and physics, with my high school records it probably would have taken me 3 1/2 years to get it, and they were NOT going to let me stay at assembly level, which we worked on measuring/load/sampling equipment (mechatronics). one of the senior electrical engineer guys that used to work for sony was cool as hell, but the BOSS, tough dude! Alot tell me that being an introvert is a good thing, but it does not favor me at all! the problem is, I love alone time but it does NOT mix with having a Maladaptive imagination, I go way beyond daydreaming and it’s not a good mix of having both, I have to keep myself very busy, which is why I like Nursing School, BUT I already don’t like being a Nurse, I take my NCLEX next year so, I actually just want to stay in school, LOL

– I’m a dumbass introvert, in-fact a good friend of mine from high school who was just as bad as being a recluse, is a mechanical engineer, but his hobby was math and physics, HE does NOT play computer/video games +1 for him.

It goes something like this for me

Introvert: 100%

Intuitive: 100%

Thinking: 100%

Perception 85%

I was never one to follow rules, I can go(and prefer) long periods of time alone, I question EVERYTHING and generally do whatever I want, even if it leads me nowhere.

I am the ultimate observer and pattern recognizer. I think, I theorize, I destroy and start over again, never actually getting anything accomplished.

It’s a tough life.

I also have always had issues with seeing things through to their completion, but simple non-religious meditation helps. I’m told that we make great leaders of teams of creative people, and that we’re the “Jedi Knight” personality type. Albert Einstein, Rene Descartes, James Madison, Charles Darwin, David Cronenburg are all INTP.

My ex-wife told me that constantly. I always replied with, “do you promise?”

I can’t say I’m surprised to see so many INTJs here. Buncha evil, manipulative bastards plotting world domination, the lot of ya! Ha!
