I think that sentiment would be my one sentence piece of advice to give to anyone who is dealing with an ENTP on a regular basis. It can be quite liberating to adopt that mindset with them, you can appreciate them much more! It's also, perhaps not coincidentally, the mindset that they often make use of in life too ~ Nathan
Out of all the stereotypes that's the one I've most heard ENTPs push back on (or perhaps ironically... decide to debate). It's definitely the case that it only applies to certain ENTPs and isn't something I would expect to reliability see from them ~ Nathan
@@lovewho I think it's because no one wants to be seen as a debater/know it all. Some things might have to be corrected if someone is miss guided about something or simply wants to understand a concept better even if the ENTP doesn't understand it fully either, but when a person pretends to know more about something than they really do or has a totally different opinion that makes no sense, an ENTP is more than happy to talk about it 😂
Haha! My husband has said this about me exactly! “It’s not that you think outside the box, it’s that you don’t seem to realize a box exists.” I love it.
Is that so? I recently got ENTP on this quiz I took, I know what you might be thinking, what? Quizzes are a bad way to really know your type, you gotta know yourself, or maybe you're on the side of people who are like, you can't see yourself because you're blind to what you do or whatever, or maybe not I'm not a mind reader. Sorry for rambling, anyway, this quiz it was pretty cool, it like focused on the cognitive functions and even gave examples in each question, so it could be less difficult to misconstrue the questions, because originally, I thought intuition meant that you were into like fantasy things like elves, dragons, etc, and it's not that I'm not into that, anyway, it caused me to mistype myself as a sensor, though, maybe I am still a sensor, a lot of people have mistyped themselves, like ISFJ and ENTP have the same cognitive function stack, just reversed. So do INTP and ESFJ but I just like the way ISFJ looks. Oh right back to my point I didn't believe that I was an ENTP, but you said ENTPs are famous for getting bored quickly, and well, I think having almost 700 documents of unfinished stories because you either get bored/get new ideas constitutes as getting bored quickly lol Once again, I am so sorry for the long message
I need a shirt saying "take me seriously, not personally". I feel like that would solve a lot of problems, or at least prove that I'm aware of a lot of the problems that arise when I interact with people who tend to take everything I say personally. Oh man the amount of hurt feelings I accidentally cause through simple logic and banter...
I was explaining this to a friend that if you're a feeling type I am legit going to hurt your feelings but went on to explain more accurately that if you are a feeler you are going to misinterpret what I am saying and hurt your own feelings.
It makes sense that there would be a great deal of overlap between those types. Hopefully you'll resonate with the ENFP version when it's done! If you haven't already then feel free to check out the more in-depth videos on ENFPs on this channel ~ Nathan
As an INTJ, I got a special relationship with ENTP. I find female ENTPs very attractive. Personally, I see a lot of an ENTP inside me, minus the extroversion and utter lack of a plan. Bureaucracy, silly rules someone incompetent in charge, etc. either make my blood boil, or I find methods to bend rules, act in malicious compliance, or simply undermine the authority of that person responsible for the mess. In short, it's great fun acting like an ENTP, but I can't live like one. For the most part, I dislike surprises and prefer a system where everything follows protocols to remain predictable and efficient, but when protocols become useless ceremonies that are just tedious, it gets on my nerves immensely. Especially, when the system is adverse to improvements. When it comes to ENTPs in relationships, then it's about having someone to discuss things with and someone who helps me to get active and a little out of my comfort zone, but too much and it becomes just bad...
We ENTPs admire INTJs so often :). You've got all what we lack and what would be great for us if we could have it. Self-discipline, a plan (sometimes really good one), that dilligence and coherence of actions, all this without stucking in idiotic rutines like "I must sweep all my house daily because it makes me feel better" (that's ISFJ's and ISTJ's thing and I can't stand them sometimes). You have however one really bad trait which I see also in INFJs: you're too much focused on one possible path further. It's yours Ni fault :P. It ends sometimes with self-fulfilling prophecies, sometimes your great intuition leads you sadly to wrong decisions (although many times it's contrary). I wish I had INTJ by my side when I'll be ready to start a business or project of my life.
@@grzegorzwalas4125 The one thing you'd still lack would be F... Not too long someone complained about an ENTP and I asked what she did wrong. The reply was that she was terribly blunt and lacked any semblance of empathy. My reply: I thought she only stated facts... LOL
@@grzegorzwalas4125 Still, the only F I get along with tend to be from really messed-up families. The rest tend to be too sensitive, irrational and the worst thing I've experienced was when I was injured and I had to tend to my own injuries because all the feelers were running around like headless chickens being of no use whatsoever... A colleague of mine had it even worse. He was working on the weekend and cut himself at some broken glass. He didn't want to touch too many things as he was bleeding quite badly and thus he yelled for help and the only other colleague at the time came and collapsed when he saw the blood and hit his head. Now, the bleeder had to grab the phone call an ambulance for two, go out, wait for them, then guide the ambulance to his colleague...
@@edi9892 hehe, I don't think that lack of F in ENTP acronym is something important ;). Yes I may be rude sometimes but I am human and I can understand some feelings/emotions when I put some effort in it ;). I mean - rarely.
I've often wondered about this, after all both types have the same kinds of functions in the same order (N - T - F - S). Although those cognitive functions have different flavours so to speak, there still must be a great deal of kinship in the way they both see and understand the world ~ Nathan
I’m an ENTP with 3 INTJs in my life 😁. I can be myself around them and talk extreme, yet they know it’s not personal and they love me at the end of the day ❤️
@Retro Mood🎬 I'm an entp and my best friend is an enfp, its awesome to be with her. its cuz she can always understand what I'm saying and can hold debates with me and not just be listening all the time on mute, it's cool to have someone who can understand you and also hold long intellectual conversations/debates
@Celty Its cool but not a match in heaven. I dont mind being around the ENFP but sometimes I feel he's a bit too outgoing for me and acts like a people pleaser even with strangers, which kind of rubs me wrong
Is it safe to say ENTP are the verbally expressive INTP? I feel like they’re basically vocalizing what I’m thinking, because of the, you know, “I”. I love it, wish I could say just say what I think the way they do
I often wonder if I am INTP. Especially since I hate people you know... Just kidding, but hmm maybe i’m just saying what I’m thinking who knows ahhah. yeah I think we we have the same cognitive functions in a different order there’s gonna be some amount of relating to each other.

@@1chienandalou I guess it boils down to the usual, there are blessings/curse to each type. But I respect the expressiveness of ENTP/ENFP and the decisiveness of INTJ.
Yeah me too. I’ve watched lots of ENTP vids and in every way they’re described it sounds like me but in my head. Like, if I were more vocal about things I disagree with, how authorities treat me, the way people take me I’d be probably be an ENTP. But I’m an INTP and I don’t do stuff like that. I also think that ENTP’s are the more confident INTP counterparts especially as turbulent or assertive.
No not safe. ENTP might not necessarily be that way. ENTP like getting info from outside then brainstorming on it. It doesnt mean they'll be talkative though. You can have an ENTP spending hours on google or youtube to know stuff, rather than talking. Obviously, talking is the most productive though.
I don't think I've ever had an ENTP teacher before but that would have been fun indeed. My best friend is an ENTP so I've experienced the brilliance up close for a long time! ~ Nathan
As INTJ, ENTPs and ENFPs are my favourite types (joint first coz they're my favourite for different reasons). INTPs can piss me off, but maybe that just coz I'm around so many of them haha (along with a lot of INTJs too, and they also can piss me off haha). It's the dominant counterpart intuitive function, so enjoyable and interesting to talk to.
@@1chienandalou INFJs are a mixed bunch, but my mum's an INFJ and I know what you mean. I find whether I like an INFJ is largely defined by their neuoritism.
By nature (ENTP), I am quick to find, and justify, an opposing point of view; however, over time I have learned to ask myself if doing so is worth the time and energy. Do I really want to engage in a conversation that could take upwards of 20 minutes, or would I prefer doing something else? Does the subject really matter to me? Do I finally really care what the other person thinks? And if the relationship is important to me, can it continue to be fruitful even though the other person thinks very differently than I do about some matter? What, if anything, am I getting out of being right? I discover that, much of the time, it is really not necessary for me to say anything. And discovering that brings me some relief. I also find that, if a person speaks from their heart, that is convincing enough and I have no inclination to provide an opposing or additional take on the situation. When a person’s speech is genuine and in the moment, that stands for itself.
My husband is an entp and is all these things except in our relationship where I guess I'm more worldly knowledgeable, but when he gets contrary we can really get into it. Itd be interesting to hear more of infj entp relationship considering how common it is, and if theres good pop culture depictions. Classic infjs are Gandalf Dumbledore loki, maybe galadreil and celeborn are maybe this coupling, we never get to know celeborn that well but who knows maybe hes an entp
I've heard a lot of people talk about that relationship (INFJ/ENTP) and describe it as a particularly compatible one. I often find that when I ask people about this and their experience things aren't as straightforward though. Compatibility and personality types is often the contentious topic from my perspective because I think other factors such as the level of maturity of both parties is much more important. Despite all of those caveats, I do think that both of these types are more likely to find a natural complementarity and synergy. They are different and similar in the right kinds of ways! ~ Nathan
@@lovewho do you find the entj intp as similar I have friends of that coupling but in their marriage separation more babies have come into the family and it kind of seems a mess and divorce still isnt on the table.
This was a nice video that I related to, I'm not sure if I'm an ENTP though but still, I found it relatable. Also, sorry if this is weird, but I read through the comments, and I really appreciate the fact that you respond to a lot of them, a lot of people just ignore comments and stuff, so that's a very nice thing to do imo.
So my mindset in life in general is quite a scrappy one so to speak. I like to really put effort into the things that I have some kind of control over, which on CZcams is responding to comments. If you haven't already then feel free to check out the other ENTP videos to see whether you relate to any of those! ~ Nathan
If you haven't already seen them then feel free to check out the more in-depth videos that these clips were taken from, hopefully you'll resonate with those just as much! ~ Nathan
It would be interesting and hilarious to hear you talk about one of each peronality's best match! Me as an Infj is often facinated by how good I connect with entps, even though we seem totally polar. They somehow always make burst into laugh and give me interesting insights. I would say that the fine combinition of Te and Ni lies behind this. The type I ditest the most (I dear to say it here) is infps. It is something with their strong fi and adamant self-consciousness that frighten me immensely. Hope I didn't said too much...
If you are an Infj Than you have Ti and Ni and the entp would have Ne and Ti so there is no Te in either of the types! But I am confused why we work so well with infjs also!
My partner's an ENTP who gets me (INFP) to do all the household paperwork. I can handle paperwork/e-mails/texts, but handing me a phone or forcing me to talk to a stuck up bureaucrat who's job it is to stop me in my tracks is hell, so I make him deal with the talking side. He's slowly learning not to be so much of a dick to people, because I tend to come along with my Fi and go "no, stop hurting their feelings", but I say nothing if it's around most of our friend group (mostly a bunch of xNTPs, with a few xNFPs in for flavour) because they can handle it. It seems to be the few J types we know who just don't get his viewpoint and they have to go and blow off steam for a while before returning. His "devil's advocate" only really shows when black-and-white thinking is on display, and then he'll go in for an argument.
The black and white thinking gets me every time if it's someone I care about and respect. I'm not saying it's the proper approach, but it's like a light switch I'm still learning to control. Otherwise I'm really good at just writing someone off as an idiot and moving on with my life.
@@lovewho I am subscribed to your channel for a while now, love it very much! Even go on that link for your Diskord server but nothing happening there, I don't know how it works...
The bureaucracy and precise procedures part..."fair amount of stress" is a polite understatement. It's ironic how we're so fearless in high-stakes work situations yet can have a meltdown about following admin instructions or filling in a group spreadsheet.
It makes sense that ENFPs would relate to a lot of this since they are similar types in many respects. Hopefully you’ll relate to the ENFP one more when it’s done! ~ Nathan
I relate so much to ENFP and INTP studies. Not 100%, the differences are quite stark. Just enough to confirm that I'm definitely an ENTP, lol. I find it more difficult to see any part of myself in studies of NTJs though. No functions at all in common. Anyway, hello my non-identical but undeniable twin. 👋🏽
ENFP's are a bit more outgoing and socially less awkward. They also feel things like fear, anxiety and hurt and respond to them. ENTP's are so obsessed with brainstorming that they hardly feel things like fear or awkwardness. I mean yeah we feel it sometimes but not something that'll keep us awake all night.
@@JstJaybeingJay We found each other less than two weeks ago. Previous humans were simply not up to the challenge of a big smart testosterone-jacked animal. I’d raised three before as well as having been down that road myself. In time he’s been here, we’ve done around ten miles. It’s in the teens here so it’s only fair that I sacrifice a little during his outdoor season. Prolly be hot this summer.
Are you familiar with the Enneagram? The Enneagram describes different categories of personality; then, it goes on to describe I think 12 levels of health that are expressed in each personality. I say this because I think that here you are describing an ENTP who is at the average level of emotional health. As the person matures, and as they learn to rely more on their unconscious functions, they change. Life will have taught them to transcend the limitations that defined them at earlier stages of growth. Would be willing to let me know how this point of view lands with you.?
I don't take ENTPs personally. Or most people. I DO, however, find continual arguments over small things and having my own identity and viewpoints challenged before we can find a single commonality about as pointless and tedious as they find bureaucracy and paperwork to be. I wish I could just be friendly and appreciate the Ne they've mastered.
Its deserved in his case. Its definitly personnal. When someone tell you he want to piss off a group of people its personnal (surtout quand ce groupe est dans la légalité). Have a nice day
@@TheAKD56 Exactement ! It is all about the coming election in April - disgusting! The interesting thing is he doesn't like limitations for himself but no problem imposing to other people and he enjoys to provoke, as if he couldn't help it...
Why on every MBTI video is there at least one comment declaring, "ALL of type X are EVIL!!!" Bruh, relax, an ENTP, or someone pretending to be an ENTP, or someone mistyped as an ENTP did you wrong, and now the whole population must pay? Do you realise that you're engaging in just another ism? This is the most boring hate speech I've ever heard, if I were planning on taking it personally, I'd be more offended by how predictable and formulaic it is than anything else. I get it, you were hurt and your feelings may or may not be valid and you'd prefer not to repeat that negative experience. Self-fulfilling prophecies are a thing though, and so are tinted glasses.
I think I'm just both ENFP and ENTP at this point, I mean, the T can't ignore the F, and oftentimes the F is all you have as the T can't be reasonably argumentated for but there is still value in the F. If that makes sense lol.
As an ENTP- i don't think its totally accurate to say we see details as pointless. I am very intense about details and respect details too much and I struggle to step back at times and not let details go etc. I think black and white at times, snd then go all in on some details within the scope of my consciousness and then totally neglect others simultaneously. So my brain is geared for details and clarification in arguments but at times it feels like we are a slave to accuracy and picking things apart and being okay with grey areas of data- hoping that makes sense
I'm an INTJ and love prodding people to see how they react. Part of me thinks that I only test as INTJ because I was raised religious and was willing to subject myself to the will of God. I can't help but think that my base personality type could have been ENTP.
Socially, I’m always surprised when someone gets mad at me, during what I thought was a civil conversation. I had an exchange with a man who worked where I did, and when some of the women started to bully me, I had no idea why. “You just have to understand how they think,” said my friend. “ But they’re not being rational!” I replied, and he laughed. This is not an uncommon situation for me, either.
I hate bureucracy money system that tells that money is important i hate system where is rich or poor i hate values clothes and cars chasing money slaves working jobs we hate to buy shit we dont need i may sound bit like tyler durden but i do believe in god at same time
Nope. They are destructive and egocentric. Anything and everyone is there for them to have fun and prod with until they've had their fill. Manipulative is also another useful word to understand these people. They can lure you in to strike you at your weakest place for the fun of it. Because that's their understanding of fun. I would rate them as high sociopaths...
Depends, for every action there is an equal reaction. I can sense a lot of bias and generalisation in here, something an ENTP will surely not apreciate.
@@MrEvans1 hey evans, i had made a comment based on how the video had described ENTPs. Not that i would label them as evil at first go. Beautiful quality of ENTPs as video mentioned and from what I have heard in general about ENTP is that they push people to do their best and get the thing they or an ENTP want, which is awesome. Now,entire thing rests upon how they get others to do things. If that is through manipulation and instigation, then that is a problem, and also the frequency of it. But then, this manipulation tactics could be used by anyone regardless of their personality type. So, I would say that this area is something ENTP should hold his her horses over. As an INFP, i too have some flaws which are expected from a typical INFP. These types are more likely to experience depression than other types. So i am trying to be aware of the things that keep me away from being depressed or be a toal nuisance in social situations. So better, if all types can take an effort to know what they are doing wrong, instead of saying things like my MBTI is the best personality type, world could be a better place to live in.
I’m sorry you had an experience with a manipulative or narcissistic person. But they come in all personality types. Just so you know. You will not be protected from them by avoiding ENTP in the future. Best wishes.

@@jamesbaxter5978 That NiNe is super fun. Unfortunately this entangles me also with INFJs who I kinda don’t want to deal with any more at this point.
@@1chienandalou INFJs are a mixed bunch, but my mum's an INFJ and I know what you mean. I find whether I like an INFJ is largely defined by their neuoritism.
By nature (ENTP), I am quick to find, and justify, an opposing point of view; however, over time I have learned to ask myself if doing so is worth the time and energy.
Do I really want to engage in a conversation that could take upwards of 20 minutes, or would I prefer doing something else? Does the subject really matter to me? Do I finally really care what the other person thinks? And if the relationship is important to me, can it continue to be fruitful even though the other person thinks very differently than I do about some matter? What, if anything, am I getting out of being right?
I discover that, much of the time, it is really not necessary for me to say anything. And discovering that brings me some relief.
I also find that, if a person speaks from their heart, that is convincing enough and I have no inclination to provide an opposing or additional take on the situation. When a person’s speech is genuine and in the moment, that stands for itself.
My husband is an entp and is all these things except in our relationship where I guess I'm more worldly knowledgeable, but when he gets contrary we can really get into it. Itd be interesting to hear more of infj entp relationship considering how common it is, and if theres good pop culture depictions. Classic infjs are Gandalf Dumbledore loki, maybe galadreil and celeborn are maybe this coupling, we never get to know celeborn that well but who knows maybe hes an entp
I've heard a lot of people talk about that relationship (INFJ/ENTP) and describe it as a particularly compatible one. I often find that when I ask people about this and their experience things aren't as straightforward though. Compatibility and personality types is often the contentious topic from my perspective because I think other factors such as the level of maturity of both parties is much more important. Despite all of those caveats, I do think that both of these types are more likely to find a natural complementarity and synergy. They are different and similar in the right kinds of ways! ~ Nathan
@@lovewho do you find the entj intp as similar I have friends of that coupling but in their marriage separation more babies have come into the family and it kind of seems a mess and divorce still isnt on the table.
This was a nice video that I related to, I'm not sure if I'm an ENTP though but still, I found it relatable.
Also, sorry if this is weird, but I read through the comments, and I really appreciate the fact that you respond to a lot of them, a lot of people just ignore comments and stuff, so that's a very nice thing to do imo.
So my mindset in life in general is quite a scrappy one so to speak. I like to really put effort into the things that I have some kind of control over, which on CZcams is responding to comments. If you haven't already then feel free to check out the other ENTP videos to see whether you relate to any of those! ~ Nathan
@@lovewho Oh that makes sense, I can understand that.
I def will, thanks!
You summed me up, in full, in 60 secs. Well done!
If you haven't already seen them then feel free to check out the more in-depth videos that these clips were taken from, hopefully you'll resonate with those just as much! ~ Nathan
@@lovewho I certainly have seen them; but I love the 60 sec summary
So basically dealing with someone who just doesn’t want to get humbled
Fact : All of them are so pretty
I’m a ENTP even though I’m depressed af and have hardly any friends🤌
I hope you are alright now
It would be interesting and hilarious to hear you talk about one of each peronality's best match! Me as an Infj is often facinated by how good I connect with entps, even though we seem totally polar. They somehow always make burst into laugh and give me interesting insights. I would say that the fine combinition of Te and Ni lies behind this.
The type I ditest the most (I dear to say it here) is infps. It is something with their strong fi and adamant self-consciousness that frighten me immensely.
Hope I didn't said too much...
If you are an Infj Than you have Ti and Ni and the entp would have Ne and Ti so there is no Te in either of the types! But I am confused why we work so well with infjs also!
Funnily enough I just responded to a comment further up that addresses some of this stuff, feel free to check that out! ~ Nathan
I like the last one "take them setiously and not personally." Like for real this is how i operate. Madness
Great video. Short. To the point. Interesting. Last quote was spot on!!!
My partner's an ENTP who gets me (INFP) to do all the household paperwork. I can handle paperwork/e-mails/texts, but handing me a phone or forcing me to talk to a stuck up bureaucrat who's job it is to stop me in my tracks is hell, so I make him deal with the talking side.
He's slowly learning not to be so much of a dick to people, because I tend to come along with my Fi and go "no, stop hurting their feelings", but I say nothing if it's around most of our friend group (mostly a bunch of xNTPs, with a few xNFPs in for flavour) because they can handle it. It seems to be the few J types we know who just don't get his viewpoint and they have to go and blow off steam for a while before returning. His "devil's advocate" only really shows when black-and-white thinking is on display, and then he'll go in for an argument.
The black and white thinking gets me every time if it's someone I care about and respect. I'm not saying it's the proper approach, but it's like a light switch I'm still learning to control. Otherwise I'm really good at just writing someone off as an idiot and moving on with my life.
That natural confidence in their beliefs they have is soooo hot -infj
I'm an INFJ who currently likes someone who I believe is an ENTP, and his confidence is definitely what initially drawed me to him!
Haha so spot on, my bestie is a right madman, love the crazy flip flopping of viewpoints and thinking outside the box.
Amen to that! ~ Nathan
Never heard better explanation of ENTP!!!
Feel free to check out the more in depth videos on ENTPs on this channel if you haven't already! ~ Nathan
@@lovewho I am subscribed to your channel for a while now, love it very much! Even go on that link for your Diskord server but nothing happening there, I don't know how it works...
The bureaucracy and precise procedures part..."fair amount of stress" is a polite understatement. It's ironic how we're so fearless in high-stakes work situations yet can have a meltdown about following admin instructions or filling in a group spreadsheet.
ENTP here! I'm now known! Thanks!
What the… I’m an ENFP and yet I can relate so much to this
It makes sense that ENFPs would relate to a lot of this since they are similar types in many respects. Hopefully you’ll relate to the ENFP one more when it’s done! ~ Nathan
I relate so much to ENFP and INTP studies. Not 100%, the differences are quite stark. Just enough to confirm that I'm definitely an ENTP, lol.
I find it more difficult to see any part of myself in studies of NTJs though. No functions at all in common.
Anyway, hello my non-identical but undeniable twin. 👋🏽
ENFP's are a bit more outgoing and socially less awkward. They also feel things like fear, anxiety and hurt and respond to them. ENTP's are so obsessed with brainstorming that they hardly feel things like fear or awkwardness. I mean yeah we feel it sometimes but not something that'll keep us awake all night.
Ngl I feel like everything I say people take it to the next level when they know I’m joking
As an ENTP, this is spot on
My male Siberian husky is debating me right now. He’s not going to win but game respect game.
I like 😍 husky's. What's his name?
@@JstJaybeingJay Scout. He's three and has the prettiest light blue eyes you ever saw.
@@richsackett3423 😍😍...don't make me jealous now...😁. ENTP here btw...
@@JstJaybeingJay We found each other less than two weeks ago. Previous humans were simply not up to the challenge of a big smart testosterone-jacked animal. I’d raised three before as well as having been down that road myself. In time he’s been here, we’ve done around ten miles. It’s in the teens here so it’s only fair that I sacrifice a little during his outdoor season. Prolly be hot this summer.
Wow! Very well portrayed. ❤
Yeah, as an ENTP can confirm this is true!
Are you familiar with the Enneagram? The Enneagram describes different categories of personality; then, it goes on to describe I think 12 levels of health that are expressed in each personality.
I say this because I think that here you are describing an ENTP who is at the average level of emotional health. As the person matures, and as they learn to rely more on their unconscious functions, they change. Life will have taught them to transcend the limitations that defined them at earlier stages of growth. Would be willing to let me know how this point of view lands with you.?
I'm intending to do an enneagram video in the near future so stay tuned... ~ Nathan
you talk so good with your eyes
I don't take ENTPs personally. Or most people. I DO, however, find continual arguments over small things and having my own identity and viewpoints challenged before we can find a single commonality about as pointless and tedious as they find bureaucracy and paperwork to be. I wish I could just be friendly and appreciate the Ne they've mastered.
Wdym challenging your identity?
Straight to it, I like it
My mother thanks you, my father thanks you & I Thank You! 👍 perfect description for this Happy ENTP. 🙃😎
good lord I’ve just been deconstructed so throughly on 60 seconds 😂
I’m ENTP -A and it’s annoying 😭 living with you humans
What's with the ominous music in the background, making us entps look like the the murderer in a horror story 😭
Murderers who also get away with it**
I am French and Macron has been labeled as an entp. Getting on everyone' s nerves ... your analyze is spot on!
Its deserved in his case. Its definitly personnal. When someone tell you he want to piss off a group of people its personnal (surtout quand ce groupe est dans la légalité).
Have a nice day
@@TheAKD56 Exactement ! It is all about the coming election in April - disgusting! The interesting thing is he doesn't like limitations for himself but no problem imposing to other people and he enjoys to provoke, as if he couldn't help it...
Macron is likely an EJ of some sort.
ABSOLUTELY ACCURATE ON ALL COUNTS
Immaculate again Nathan
i am not sure whether I am INTP or ENTP. i kind of agree with boths description
Came to comment and saw my comment. 😂😂😂 life of an entp lol
Yup. Nailed it.
we need an ISTP short
watching these to boost my ego
Fuck these was yesterday how did I miss it
ENTPs...so hot.
I don't understand why I can't adjust the volume on these shorts. They are silent by default and only randomly have sound turned on. I feel old. Lol.
Technology can be annoying! ~ Nathan
@@lovewho And it's sad because I'm an INTJ. 😂 Love your videos, Nathan.
Precise explaination😋😋👌👌
I’m ENTJ, the ENTP trait for not working towards a sensible goal drives me nuts.
So much wasted potential, and just get the F out of my way
Entp make me laugh 😂😂
Red tape bureaucracy and paperwork actually are the same thing :)
You just described me.
Thanks for this informative vid btw what personality type are you ?
Why on every MBTI video is there at least one comment declaring, "ALL of type X are EVIL!!!" Bruh, relax, an ENTP, or someone pretending to be an ENTP, or someone mistyped as an ENTP did you wrong, and now the whole population must pay? Do you realise that you're engaging in just another ism? This is the most boring hate speech I've ever heard, if I were planning on taking it personally, I'd be more offended by how predictable and formulaic it is than anything else. I get it, you were hurt and your feelings may or may not be valid and you'd prefer not to repeat that negative experience. Self-fulfilling prophecies are a thing though, and so are tinted glasses.
I think I'm just both ENFP and ENTP at this point, I mean, the T can't ignore the F, and oftentimes the F is all you have as the T can't be reasonably argumentated for but there is still value in the F. If that makes sense lol.
So good
Accurate
He gets me 😄
do estp next
As an ENTP- i don't think its totally accurate to say we see details as pointless. I am very intense about details and respect details too much and I struggle to step back at times and not let details go etc. I think black and white at times, snd then go all in on some details within the scope of my consciousness and then totally neglect others simultaneously. So my brain is geared for details and clarification in arguments but at times it feels like we are a slave to accuracy and picking things apart and being okay with grey areas of data- hoping that makes sense
I'm an INTJ and love prodding people to see how they react. Part of me thinks that I only test as INTJ because I was raised religious and was willing to subject myself to the will of God. I can't help but think that my base personality type could have been ENTP.
Amen
Oui
More chess references smh
I can't help myself... ~ Nathan
I am an entp :)
Socially, I’m always surprised when someone gets mad at me, during what I thought was a civil conversation.
I had an exchange with a man who worked where I did, and when some of the women started to bully me, I had no idea why.
“You just have to understand how they think,” said my friend.
“ But they’re not being rational!” I replied, and he laughed. This is not an uncommon situation for me, either.
Nathan are you ENTP 🤔🤔🤔🤔
Me
I hate bureucracy money system that tells that money is important i hate system where is rich or poor i hate values clothes and cars chasing money slaves working jobs we hate to buy shit we dont need i may sound bit like tyler durden but i do believe in god at same time
How do I know if I’m an ENTP or INFJ?
Both personality are so different
What type are you, Nathan?
Typically I try to maintain my air of mystery but if you join the LoveWho Discord server maybe I'll tell you... ~ Nathan
@@lovewho Since this channel is about MBTI types, I thought it would be fair to know from what type’s perspective the views are.
Nope. They are destructive and egocentric. Anything and everyone is there for them to have fun and prod with until they've had their fill. Manipulative is also another useful word to understand these people. They can lure you in to strike you at your weakest place for the fun of it. Because that's their understanding of fun. I would rate them as high sociopaths...
Haha... Well what can we say.... We live to impress....🤣 You're welcome.
The description of the ENTP in this video reminded me of a person who was narcissist with exact same contempt for limitations.
Depends, for every action there is an equal reaction. I can sense a lot of bias and generalisation in here, something an ENTP will surely not apreciate.
@@MrEvans1 hey evans, i had made a comment based on how the video had described ENTPs. Not that i would label them as evil at first go. Beautiful quality of ENTPs as video mentioned and from what I have heard in general about ENTP is that they push people to do their best and get the thing they or an ENTP want, which is awesome. Now,entire thing rests upon how they get others to do things. If that is through manipulation and instigation, then that is a problem, and also the frequency of it. But then, this manipulation tactics could be used by anyone regardless of their personality type. So, I would say that this area is something ENTP should hold his her horses over.
As an INFP, i too have some flaws which are expected from a typical INFP. These types are more likely to experience depression than other types. So i am trying to be aware of the things that keep me away from being depressed or be a toal nuisance in social situations. So better, if all types can take an effort to know what they are doing wrong, instead of saying things like my MBTI is the best personality type, world could be a better place to live in.
I’m sorry you had an experience with a manipulative or narcissistic person. But they come in all personality types. Just so you know. You will not be protected from them by avoiding ENTP in the future. Best wishes.
What blathering nonsense 😂 talk means nothing 😊
