9 Things Every INTJ Needs In A Friendship | INTJ Friends

In today's video I ma going over the 9 things every INTJ needs in a friendship. Making INTJ friends can be tough. Not because they aren't nice, but because they can be extremely picky when it comes to choosing who their friends are. The INTJ personality type is quite rare, as you may know so they are extremely choosy when it comes to what they look for in their INTJ relationships.

The INTJ personality type happens to be extremely rare and this is probably why it can be so hard for others to be friends with them. Due to being extremely reserved, sensitive, and thoughtful, the INTJ personality might not be able to tell you what they need in a friendship.

INTJs have a reputation for being intellectual and aloof loners, although like with many clichés, this isn't entirely accurate. Friendship is important to INTJs, and they do make amazing friends. They just are on the lookout for and absolutely need very specific things.

Success For Breakfast was created to be a channel that makes simple-to-follow videos giving you the tools to live your best life and help in your personal growth journey. There are a lot of little pieces that add up to the bigger “whole” picture of what you envision for your best life and what success looks like for you - so I am creating videos hitting on all of those subjects. From financial tips, relationships, and happiness to psychological tips, personal development, and even productivity advice. Brain food to give you the best possible chance to level up and love your life in all areas.

We all know that a strong mindset and good mental health is the key to success, and to take control of your life, but there are many different ways to get there. It is not just motivation and affirmations, although those are important. For me, it was also about psychology, understanding myself, and knowing why I did things a certain way. It was also about meditating and learning about manifesting and the law of attraction, and of course how to be and stay motivated.

I hope you enjoy my channel and the videos but more importantly, find things that you can take action on and level up your life!

"If you are the type of person who loves gossiping, and wasting time, and doing pretty much nothing, then I suggest you do not try to befriend this personality type." lol. Accurate.

I've never had an easy time making substantial friendships with women because I typically find them to be a bit shallow and lack depth of character. I'm a contemplative person, ambitious, intelligent, who likes meaningful friends with independent women, but I haven't found compatibility with most women as an adult.

INTJ are most generous at work with respect in knowledge, trust and loyalty to win at team

[bradleyboyer]

I used to think I was an INTP, but I'm not sure how I thought that. I am a strong "J". I am obsessed with time management and getting things done quickly. I also used to think I liked to ponder complex thoughts. And I do - however, I'm very interested in putting those thoughts into action. I also make decisions very quickly.

No personality test is perfect, but Myers-briggs is VERY close. I think it is a very valuable tool to understand ourselves better. It also gives perspective about how every person has strengths and weaknesses, which helps to not be so critical of everyone else (which, as an INTJ, I absolutely had a tendency to do before educating myself).

[MsRen]

This is so accurate - I'm finally starting to understand myself.

I'm laughing at this because as an INTJ I'm realizing I need a great amount of 'coddling' in my friendships. Near close to a romantic partner just without the romance and play. Aint no friends giving anything INTJ's need in 2022. I remember I lost lots of friends in my 20's to new babies and husbands because I think I wanted the same type of importance in my friendships and they had no room for me. After while I cut the pregnant friend off before they could bc I knew where that was headed. If someone doesn't feel like family or a lover- it's very difficult to consider them a friend in any type of way. Nothing cuts at me deeper than a friendship presence that feels fast temporary and unreliable. It literally creates physical pain.

Great list, unlike many other videos. Meaningful.

***BAM!!!*** I'd ADORE putting these items as you have ordered them, on billboards for the "less astute" to constantly be exposed to!!!

You touched on it briefly, but I will go for the deep dive on ***Don't crowd me!!!*** I don't like being "touched, " even in conversations with those close to me, so that "offensive move" will make me back away from the offender. Respect my space & I'll carry on with you. Crowding me on any level is my exit que...

I attempt to be light-hearted & engage in conversation on intelligent topics. I will withdraw quietly if gossip or nonsense weasels into the narrative. If it continues, I can find the exit quicker than you can blink.

One last "pet peeve" has to be "look at me when you're talking to me, " not the wall, the ceiling, out the window, at another, or into your "current screen." The instant I see any of that, I tune OUT the words, because you're not talking to me & I know it...🖤

Edit:
I will add this:

When someone approaches me with a dilemma, I can't effectively offer solution options if I'm not given the exact details surrounding it. More often than not, they omit(deliberately or by some grand design!!!) strategic details that fundamentally shift the entire landscape. Others root their omissions in emotional attachments they won't admit to but capitulate nonetheless. As you articulated, clear communication of these details is essential to a constructive understanding. I don't verbalize emotional attachments: they take a more visable manifestation in my adjusted ACTIONS. Intolerable behaviors are immediately blunted, & that action is not well received, so to a point, I accept that most won't "go that far, " a clear indication of their addiction to approval. No resolution to a dilemma can be applied to chronic approval addiction behaviour; the behavior itself is rooted in a false premise so uprooting it is THE start point. Stoic Philosophy entrenches the habit of clearly recognizing what IS & IS NOT within one's realm of control... & no one will ever be able to control another's behavior: you can only control HOW or even IF you _respond to it._ 🖤

I think we just need a reasonably intelligent ENFP.

Another interesting topic
... Let's see how this applies.

[Mrs.T]

I like to be included but don't like to attend (most of the time).

Least favorite female outing, shopping. Torture. I'm the type. I like to get what I need, in and out as quickly as possible. This was before online shopping, which is now my preferred method.

Shopping seems to be something most girls I've met thoroughly enjoy. A whole ritual seems to take place that I have no desire to be a part of. Not at all ever been into the whole girl group outings. They mostly just gossip and judge everyone and talk about nonsense while spending ridiculous amounts of money they don't have. I don't get it.

you can look at an INTJ as that old man in the matrix! he's the archetype who build the whole thing and everyone was the rat in the maze. this pretty much sums up what they look like through there whole life some more matures than others but never the less wiser even at an early age! when you play games like chess you get to be in his shoes and know just how stressful it really is. this how wars are fought through history. you need someone to orchestrate all the battle and the men everything from weapons, type of weapons, the battle grounds, the training. this how they also test there theories is actually more about that than anything else. you got the king and the real mastermind behind the curtains and who is really running the place as the king serves as the face while these type work behind the curtains. I mean who do you really think runs the country? the president? guess again? every organization has an some sort of archetype even if not by nature. if an archetype wants his own king dead then that's a possibility if it means they would succeed. an archetype is a builder who build's on that which the world maybe missing and bring it into this reality for it's own survival and a better world constructed by them. it's there system and when it's finally realize they can finally come out of there cocoon and be free from that dark and lonely place! it really sucks to be there. but not this time! this time it would be there world and there way of running things, so it's really down to what they want as an outcome and weather or not is something you agreed to or not? all that matters is the success of those rats in the maze.
