I'm an INTP as well. What is funny is this is one of the rarest of the 16 personality types, but sites like this seem to attract us. IN's are rare in general. Most people in the US are ES's.

This is the most accurate free test I've found:

My type...and ****'s...and Ali's:

INTP – 1% of the population
General description:

INTP’s see everything in terms of how it could be improved, or what it could be turned into. They seek clarity in everything, and are therefore driven to build knowledge. They are the "absent-minded professors", who highly value intelligence and the ability to apply logic to theories to find solutions. They approach problems and theories with enthusiasm and skepticism, ignoring existing rules and opinions and defining their own approach to the resolution. They hate to work on routine things - they would much prefer to build complex theoretical solutions, and leave the implementation of the system to others.

They like being the architect of a plan, because of the scheming and thinking involved, far more than being the implementer of that plan. Implementation tends to be drudgery. When their projects are of interest to them, they can become mesmerized and may even work through the night. When their projects are not intriguing, their work is considered a chore, and the INTP finds it difficult to stay motivated. The drive to understand things that are not yet understood is a very powerful force in the life of an INTP. The INTP will become quickly bored with anything that he has successfully analysed to the point of understanding it. Once they have found the answer, they do not often share it because the answer is obvious, and documenting the obvious is redundant. This attitude includes a tendency not to response or speak up in groups, because the INTP feels that what he or she was going to say seems so obvious that no one would want to hear it.

INTPs exhibit the greatest precision in thought and language of all the types; they tend to see distinctions and inconsistencies in thought and language instantaneously.

INTPs are very tolerant and flexible in most situations, unless one of their firmly held beliefs has been violated or challenged, in which case they may take a very rigid stance. The INTP is likely to be very shy when it comes to meeting new people. On the other hand, the INTP is very self-confident and gregarious around people they know well, or when discussing theories which they fully understand.

The INTP may have a problem with self-aggrandizement and social rebellion. The INTP is usually very independent, unconventional, and original. They usually have complex characters, and may tend to be restless and temperamental.

INTP Relationships:

INTPs are not likely to have a very large circle of significant relationships in their lives. They're much more likely to have a few very close relationships, which they hold in great esteem and with great affection. They tend to be difficult to get to know well, and hold back parts of themselves until the other person has proven themselves "worthy" of hearing the INTP's thoughts. Once the INTP has committed themself to a relationship, they tend to be very faithful and loyal, and form affectionate attachments which are pure and straight-forward. The INTP has no interest or understanding of game-playing with regards to relationships. However, if something happens which the INTP considers irreconciliable, they will leave the relationship and not look back. INTPs detest facades and particulary dislike people who exhibit them.

Love:

Although they choose to keep things straight-forward in their relationships, this does not mean that the INTP is lacking in depth of feeling or passion.

For the INTP, love has three distinct phases: falling in, staying in, and getting out. When an INTP falls in love, he or she falls hard - an all or nothing phenomenon characterized as a stage of complete loss of rationality. As relationships progress to the staying-in-love phase, INTPs may withdraw because they are moving toward their more customary inward style. Falling out of love: Often an undefined line is crossed that neither partner knows about ahead of time. However, the INTP knows after the line has been crossed, and then the relationship deteriorates or ends. If the INTP shares some common interests with the former loved one, the relationship continues but on a different level. When INTPs have a reason to continue relationships, they do.

As Parents:

INTPs love and respect Knowledge. Their greatest goal and satisfaction as a parent is seeing their children grow into independent, rational adults. INTP parents are likely to encourage their children to grow as individuals, rather than attempt to fit them into a preconceived mold. They will stress autonomy through the children's growth. They're likely to respect their children's opinions and wishes, and allow their children to have a voice and presence in the family.

INTP Strengths

• They feel love and affection for those close to them which is almost childlike in its purity

• Generally laid-back and easy-going, willing to defer to their mates

• Approach things which interest them very enthusiastically

• Richly imaginative and creative

• Do not feel personally threatened by conflict or criticism

• Usually are not demanding, with simple daily needs

INTP Weaknesses

• Not naturally in tune with others' feelings; slow to respond to emotional needs

• Not naturally good at expressing their own feelings and emotions

• Tend to be suspicious and distrusting of others

• Not usually good at practical matters, such as money management, unless their work involves these concerns

• They have difficulty leaving bad relationships

• Tend to "blow off" conflict situations by ignoring them, or else they "blow up" in heated anger

• May find it impossible to study without quiet or concentration

• May lack social supports

• May get consumed by favorite courses and ignore all the others

• May put off writing until they read everything available on the topic

• May frustrate roommates who need casual conversation; abhor small talk

The Inspirer

As an ENFP, your primary mode of living is focused externally, where you take things in primarily via your intuition. Your secondary mode is internal, where you deal with things according to how you feel about them, or how they fit in with your personal value system.

ENFPs are warm, enthusiastic people, typically very bright and full of potential. They live in the world of possibilities, and can become very passionate and excited about things. Their enthusiasm lends them the ability to inspire and motivate others, more so than we see in other types. They can talk their way in or out of anything. They love life, seeing it as a special gift, and strive to make the most out of it.

ENFPs have an unusually broad range of skills and talents. They are good at most things which interest them. Project-oriented, they may go through several different careers during their lifetime. To onlookers, the ENFP may seem directionless and without purpose, but ENFPs are actually quite consistent, in that they have a strong sense of values which they live with throughout their lives. Everything that they do must be in line with their values. An ENFP needs to feel that they are living their lives as their true Self, walking in step with what they believe is right. They see meaning in everything, and are on a continuous quest to adapt their lives and values to achieve inner peace. They're constantly aware and somewhat fearful of losing touch with themselves. Since emotional excitement is usually an important part of the ENFP's life, and because they are focused on keeping "centered", the ENFP is usually an intense individual, with highly evolved values.

An ENFP needs to focus on following through with their projects. This can be a problem area for some of these individuals. Unlike other Extraverted types, ENFPs need time alone to center themselves, and make sure they are moving in a direction which is in sync with their values. ENFPs who remain centered will usually be quite successful at their endeavors. Others may fall into the habit of dropping a project when they become excited about a new possibility, and thus they never achieve the great accomplishments which they are capable of achieving.

Most ENFPs have great people skills. They are genuinely warm and interested in people, and place great importance on their inter-personal relationships. ENFPs almost always have a strong need to be liked. Sometimes, especially at a younger age, an ENFP will tend to be "gushy" and insincere, and generally "overdo" in an effort to win acceptance. However, once an ENFP has learned to balance their need to be true to themselves with their need for acceptance, they excel at bringing out the best in others, and are typically well-liked. They have an exceptional ability to intuitively understand a person after a very short period of time, and use their intuition and flexibility to relate to others on their own level.

Because ENFPs live in the world of exciting possibilities, the details of everyday life are seen as trivial drudgery. They place no importance on detailed, maintenance-type tasks, and will frequently remain oblivous to these types of concerns. When they do have to perform these tasks, they do not enjoy themselves. This is a challenging area of life for most ENFPs, and can be frustrating for ENFP's family members.

An ENFP who has "gone wrong" may be quite manipulative - and very good it. The gift of gab which they are blessed with makes it naturally easy for them to get what they want. Most ENFPs will not abuse their abilities, because that would not jive with their value systems.

ENFPs sometimes make serious errors in judgment. They have an amazing ability to intuitively perceive the truth about a person or situation, but when they apply judgment to their perception, they may jump to the wrong conclusions.

ENFPs who have not learned to follow through may have a difficult time remaining happy in marital relationships. Always seeing the possibilities of what could be, they may become bored with what actually is. The strong sense of values will keep many ENFPs dedicated to their relationships. However, ENFPs like a little excitement in their lives, and are best matched with individuals who are comfortable with change and new experiences.

Having an ENFP parent can be a fun-filled experience, but may be stressful at times for children with strong Sensing or Judging tendancies. Such children may see the ENFP parent as inconsistent and difficult to understand, as the children are pulled along in the whirlwind life of the ENFP. Sometimes the ENFP will want to be their child's best friend, and at other times they will play the parental authoritarian. But ENFPs are always consistent in their value systems, which they will impress on their children above all else, along with a basic joy of living.

ENFPs are basically happy people. They may become unhappy when they are confined to strict schedules or mundane tasks. Consequently, ENFPs work best in situations where they have a lot of flexibility, and where they can work with people and ideas. Many go into business for themselves. They have the ability to be quite productive with little supervision, as long as they are excited about what they're doing.

Because they are so alert and sensitive, constantly scanning their environments, ENFPs often suffer from muscle tension. They have a strong need to be independent, and resist being controlled or labelled. They need to maintain control over themselves, but they do not believe in controlling others. Their dislike of dependence and suppression extends to others as well as to themselves.

ENFPs are charming, ingenuous, risk-taking, sensitive, people-oriented individuals with capabilities ranging across a broad spectrum. They have many gifts which they will use to fulfill themselves and those near them, if they are able to remain centered and master the ability of following through.

I hope he saw that.

I got the same personality type result as Bender.
By the way, did you see the list of people who have this type of personality on the other description (not the one you posted)?

It included people like Dan Akroyd, Thomas Jefferson, yadda yadda yadda... I did however take notice that it listed Hannibal the Carthaginian general, as a person from history, but also listed Hannibal Lector as a fictional character with this personality. :eek:
Of course he may have me on ignore. :confused:

Anything is better than being a "feeler" (bunch of sissies). Now, I'm not saying there is anything wrong with being a maniacal mastermind, or sadistic individual. The truth is, being an INTP, I have the same tendencies. I just don't have the organization or the attention span to pull it off. Taking over the world is such a big commitment...

INTP's are theorizers. I can plan the best way to take over the world, but once I have it planned out, I'd lose interest.

For Champions, nothing occurs which does not have some deep ethical significance, and this, coupled with their uncanny sense of the motivations of others, gives them a talent for seeing life as an exciting drama, pregnant with possibilities for both good and evil.

Pffft.. Try me..
