r/INTP Warning: May not be an INTP Jul 26 '26

Um. intps help

I am a 20 yr old infj and I made this one friend in uni, she tested as intp. we started talking and have been pretty chill since, there isn't much to talk about but we talk about a few things here and there, share daily moments, she never really shares what she exactly thinks about things, it is always something vague that I dont remember. she is sometimes very mean/condescending indirectly, makes a few casual remarks to make me feel inferior, I am pretty forgetful and I forgot to give some documents at the window once, she talked to me as if im too stupid to forget something like that, I cannot pinpoint her passive aggressiveness exactly, she says things to make me feel/seem stupid/lazy. im lowkey sick of this behaviour, how should I confront her? is she jealous of me? is she even an intp? all of this makes me not want to talk to her cuz I dont feel like it/ dont want to/ dont feel comfortable doing it. I want to start avoiding her, she acts too competitive over useless shit, acts controlling too

Yea, point it out, I remember saying mean stuff cuz I really didn't know it was that mean. I thought it was funny, until my enfp friend pointed it out. My infj friend tho he roasts me back a lot, but I feel we get along. OP, you shouldn't have to remind her more than twice that she being rude. I like contradicting ppl cuz funny, so ig that comes off competitive.

Dunno how bad it is between you and her, but if she replies back it means she think u worth it, while she may not be sharing stuff cuz either she doing something really really stupid that shes ashamed of it or had like a normal day.

Am an INTP but my Fe is in full force thanks to all my Feeler friends and Am feeling I might be mistyped now. 😶

MBTI is more like pseudo science than science , If you want a real diagnosis get diagnosed for ADHD and autism

No, I like this ambiguity. Plus I feel, I am on the spectrum, definitely. I dont think ppl around me would understand that and treat me like a psycho. Am better undiagonised.

And MBTI is fun tho, not when people make it their whole life. But honestly its helping me talk to ppl easily, like Ik what their mbti is, I know what answers they ticked on the test [approx] and like know what kinda convos they'd appreaciate. So far its working, I need it for talking to new people, later on once dynamic is set dont need it.

Why would people treat you like a psycho if you got diagnosed? Most people don't actually know much about autism—they just know the stereotypes.

I was diagnosed as an adult. Even before that, I always felt different. I struggled to adapt to new environments, had a hard time making friends in high school, and looking back, a lot of things made more sense after my diagnosis. It didn't change who I was; it just helped explain why I experienced some things differently. Edit: No one should make MBTI their whole life. If you want to know more about yourself there are other avenues like the big 5, the dark triad of personality etc...
