About ILE-ENTp subtypes

[IcEPiCk]

Can someone please tell me if there is any way to justify a theory on 2 ENTP subtypes? I am wishing there is 2 subtypes... Ive had only bad encounters with ***YOUNGER*** ENTPs around my age (20). However, the older ones I know are very down to earth and more matured (around their 40s).

The younger ones came off as liars and manipulators... Im just wondering if there is another subtype that perhaps comes off as too honest because they are careful of what they are saying... Perhaps they were shunned for using too much Intuition at a young age and choose their words more wisely?

Just looking for some personal experiences with different subtypes of ENTPs.

I notice ENTPs seem to be very good at seeing one's weakness....

You dont tend to exploit it though... Unless you are VERY subtle about it...?


sometimes I think you guys are too smart for your own good.

no reply, I will take that as a very subtle yes..

As an ENTp growing up in a very small town and a very strict family, I found my childhood and teenage years beyond frustrating! I had to deal with so many small minded people who all seemed to want to control me.

When I became an adult there was a very rough transition. I finally had the freedom to make all of my own decisions, and I sorta went a little crazy. Over the next few years I learned exactly how powerful I was. I resolved many of the issues that I was so angry about, and now I'm an entirely different person! It's an amazing thing... taking responsibility for your life...

Yes once an ENTP GETS THAT if ever...

I appreciate them so much more, and they just seem so much more intelligent in my eyes... Then they can do anything.

Anyone can do anything!

[IcEPiCk]

um yea

I suppose though that people can only do anything if they know they can do anything, and that's not something that comes easily to most people. It can be learned though!

There's something fishy here...

(and no, it's not about smoking Michael Jackson.)

Yeah, most people would rather not believe that. It's all about the 80/20 rule... the vital few and the trivial many... hey, where ever you're comfortable.
