ENTP Me!

As a parent:

+'ve - With their fun and upbeat natures, there's a little bit of kid inside all ENTPs. They approach parenthood with a fun-loving attitude which has a serious underlying goal: to make everything a learning exercise (for themselves as well as for their children) which promotes the child's growth into an independent, logical thinker.

-'ve
- The ENTP is likely to be somewhat inconsistent about spending quality time with their children. One minute they will exhibit a lot of interest and enthusiasm towards being around their kids, and will display a great deal of affection for them. However, as soon as they get caught-up in one of their grand schemes for improving a system somewhere, they're likely to inadvertantly neglect their kids.

As a spouse:

+'ve - fun, enthusiastic, wild and willing while committed to the relationship.

-'ve - committment to the relationship may last as long as two weeks! Always excited by anything new, they may change partners frequently.

As a friend:

+'ve - ENTPs are flexible and easy-going, and genuinely enjoy interacting with others. They are likely to choose to surround themselves with people who are intelligent, capable, and idea-oriented. They love nothing better than engaging in a good debate with someone who can hold their end of the conversation. This will stimulate and energize the ENTP, who is highly competitive and loves to discuss theories.

-'ve - Can be unsympathetic. Can fall into the practice of one-upmanship. Tendency to not follow through on their plans and ideas. Their love of debate may cause them to provoke arguments.

I love this stuff. Naval gazing is a delightful activity.

    Oh, isn't it though? I could spend all day taking personality tests, analysing the results and working out my idiosyncracies...

    *tries to forget the first line of a poem she recently read...something about youth with lunchboxes can't wear yellow*

  3. Me to, when I have time. The only problem I have is the claustrophobic feeling of being boxed up and ready for sale. I always look for the exceptions - Yes, I am like that BUT not totally...
