Inconsistencies?

[Asparks]

Honestly I think you took the test he first time and saw that you were an INTP, but have changed. Even though you have a different personality, you want consistency, so you take the test according to what you think an INTP should be like instead of how you actually feel. Of course INTPs are going to post what they know. We are obsessed with logic. Descriptions I have read don't say that INTPs don't have emotion, rather they don't show emotions well. For example, in a relationship an INTP has trouble telling someone they love them, but they have spontaneous ways of showing them. Personal opinion and I'm sorry, but I don't think you're truely an INTP anymore (if you were before)

..........Good Eyes... Not so much... I'm slowly becoming near-sighted, but I guess, for now, I could say I have good eyes.

As far as INTPs changing, supposedly the functions NT are always the same your whole life. Thinking, intuition, sensing, feeling. I recall people talking about the dominant functions and all this, but I didn't understand it until I actually read about it. Attitudes are, apparently, Introverted, Extroverted, Judging and Perceiving. I haven't looked it up, but perhaps the attitude can change.

There are also development stages in the book I've been reading. For most of adulthood it's said people will attempt to develop their third function. In our case, sensing. Normally at a very young age, we'll develop our dominant and auxiliary function. I've read we never normally develop the inferior function, "feeling" and that relying on feeling for too long will be very tiresome and stressful for an INTP.

Also in most of the INTP descriptions I've read it says we're conceptual, abstract thinkers, which would be opposite of being linear, logical "mathematical" thinkers. Conceptual thinking is credited to the right side of the brain as is abstractions. I can't recall if I mentioned all this already... I didn't do horrible in algebra, but I didn't really enjoy it either. It might be due to the fact that my teacher is a very linear, step-by-step thinker. Part of my issues with math and all that I credit to my issues early on in school though.
