Yeah…the title

Hi guys Do you guys like fiction books or more non-fiction books/articles. I have always had trouble reading fiction books during highschool and I'm wondering if it's just an ISTP thing?

I'd read a fiction book and then get bored of it so quick, say like after the quarter/halfway point. I have only completed 1 book, i think, during highschool.

Non-fiction books were cool AF - the stats and facts, cool shit.

What's unique about that?

As INTJ I personally respects ISTPs are really good at practical skills. ISTPs are typically skilled at troubleshooting, fixing things, and navigating physical environments effectively and I wonder if they might have some superpowers 🦸‍♂️

I'm trying to find the which superpower type that can be given to ISTPs. and I found this test. I don't come to Reddit often, and I'm not sure if you guys are interested in different types of typology tests, but it seems like asking about superhero types is something new.. But the names of the results are a bit unique.. . https://www.banggooso.com/gl/210/?locale=en-US

I got some how this result as INTJ, wondering what would you get ISTPs?

I’ve been taking the 16 personalities MBTI quiz around every 4-6 months since 2021. I’ve consistently received INTJ the most, with the occasional ISTJ thrown in there every now and again. 16 personalities updated their quiz and now I’m being typed as an ISTP. This seems like a pretty big shift, so I’m wondering what y’all think.

I am occasionally on call with isfp chick throughout the years. Never really engaged beyond phone calls because she is far and I make it clear I can’t be with her because of that. She tries to get a confession from me of how I feel about her every call and asks if I can ever see myself with her in a parallel universe. I can’t commit to her, because she is overbearing and she has no hobbies.

I feel like I should just never talk to her again because she had the thought that I would literally be a virgin forever and save myself for her despite her not being a virgin.

Sup peoples. Im learning about mbtis, got ISTP-A 3x on MBTI test during different circumtances to try and get more accurate readings.

According to my mate I cant be an ISTP because I have morals etc...but these morals are based on religion, not emotion i.e. I dont do xyz because my religion says not to.

I couldnt care about normal rules etc like i get a kick out of bending them and rebelling..without hurting any1 ofcourse. But yeah, any thoughts on this? Just curious how mbti fits into certain things like religious values etc.

I actually have one favorite ISTP artist but he doesn't really sing about love too much - anyways what's a perfect song (like maybe a popular one too so I can relate)

I FeEL feelings through lyrics and combinations of music n shit so that's why :|

Last time I asked you what you guys think a green flag is now I'm asking what a red flag is for you. A red flag is basically the opposite of a green flag instead of it being like a this a an extreme good sign to dat this person. It does the opposite it's a sign you shouldn't date this person.

So I noticed that most top secret spy's are ISTP, for example you got James Bond, John Wick, and the beekeeper. So this made me curious are just fictional ISTP good at killing or all ISTP good at killing, to test this I'm going to give you a scenario. You need to kill a mob leader because if you don't he will kill your pets and if you don't have pet's he is going to kill your family. He is going to come to your house with 5 body guards, you have 1 day to prepare and plan to kill him. What do you do?

Edit remember you still don't want to get caught by the cops because you will be sentenced to prison you want to get off Scot free

Like how do you act when your almost bed ridden i just get really whiney and irritated

Are you a terrible liar when it comes to small or big lies?

Have any ISTPs here gotten through uni in one piece? What was your experience like?

I finally finished..and feel like it was such a drag these last 3 years..i had to force myself to learn shit that was quite useless..and like my course wasnt as practical as I hoped.

I've developed discipline i guess...but man, I HATE learning stuff thats super theory heavy with little practical aspect.

My energy has been low and drained throughout uni..and i guess it's because i forced myself to do stuff that I'd not do willingly.

If you don't mind me asking what is your all's love language. The love languages are gifts, quality time, Physical and words.. And ISTP guys I know you love making this joke but don't say Sex. I personally don't know mine I feel like I go into allot of them but personally it would be Quality time/ physical. Remember too put too because the first one is the one you mainly use and the second one is the next one you use the most.

Edit Here are the love languages I forgot one earlier. Acts of service, quality time, physical touch and words.

Do you think you'd be good at it? Do you think you'd enjoy the work? What makes you choose that role over something else?

I'm very curious what are some famous ISTP this could be actors, youtubers, anime characters, movies or shows. And while your here what would you say is the most accurate ISTP character from fiction. And no don't say Shrek because we all know he would be number 1.

hey guys! so i always get 50% E and 50% I on MBTI tests, and i was wondering if someone could help me figure which one i am from my function stack:

Te — 26 Ti — 35

Se — 35 Si — 18

Ne — 24 Ni — 26

Fe — 24 Fi — 17

thanks!

as the title suggests, have any of you guys struggled with motivation and ambition and if you have how have you overcome those hurdles to get motivated again?

Mine is probably my parents, they are the most reliable people I know but they aren’t very emotional.

hiya ISTPs! i totally need your help cuz im about to explode!

he (M, 19, ISTP) and me (F, 19, ENFP) met a couple years ago on instagram and instantly clicked in. me and his friends became long distance buddies; in particular the two of us shared a special bound compared to the interactions between me and his other fella. however, even tho we had never seen each other at times, he eventually caught feelings and even opened up about it. i friend zoned him, and after a few months he cut ties.

a year and a half or so pass, throughout which we barely talked. however everything changed when i texted him first in january (idk why lol) and haven't stopped messaging ever since. we met in person for the first time on february, and again on march and april, and i am going on a trip in his hometown in two weeks.

during the last four months a lot of shit happened: i found out i was into him and confessed to him, but he friend zoned me since one of his friends has feelings for me (what in the wattpad love triangle corny ahh shit lol). almost a month ago i openly made him aware that i wanted to move on, thus reduce the frequency of our talks. long story short he didn't took it well and EVEN TOLD ME me that apparently he had cock-blocked himself and his feelings towards me in order to prioritize his friend (the one who is into me).

long story short he feels the same things, in theory.

other shit happens, and although things seem pretty stable as for now, i am scared. here are my biggest doubts:

• some of our conversation are kinda sus? there are moments where we flirt like jerks but I can't read the room when it comes to romance so I can't tell if we are both joking or what.

• i would be his first everything (situationship/relationship), and since ENFPs are already a complicated riddle that ISTPs tend to see as (quote) "sketchy and unpredictable", "too emotional", "overall too much", i am scared that he only likes me because of the attentions i give him and the genuineness of my feelings.

• we are long distance rn, but there are high chances that in september/october i will move in his hometown - totally for my own sake, don't worry - because of university. still, I don't want to tie him up to a long distance relationship for the summer since he should be out there living his own experiences with someone who can assure nearness.

• i am scared of incompatibility. ISTPs need a lot of space, which i really do understand: i let him be, try no to burden him with my own emotional insecurities (i also have BPD but i am seeing a psychologist and already have made a lot of improvement), i try to show interest in what he likes. and he listens and comments my yapping, asks about my day and my wellbeing, recommends me his favorite games and yt videos. however the one who has always to reach out the other to play video games together or to be in call most of the times it's me.

at the end of this eternal discours, can someone tell me if he MIGHT like me or not? are there any chances for me and him to exist as a us? suggestions to talk upfront with an ISTP about what bothers me or what frightens me?

thanks for bearing with me.

Like for a long time- I'm lowkey scared of possibilities, bc it'd make sense that your Ti was heavily judging analyzing .. them.
But anyways why would you stare at them for so long (I think its an ISTP thing)

Why that one?

what makes you think of it?

Apparently, Ne is about new ideas and concepts, while Se is about hands-on experience and engaging with the actual world.

I find some ideas and concepts interesting, while others not so much. The same goes for the physical aspects of things—some I enjoy, others not as much. For example, if I'm in a school environment and I'm bored, I tend to retreat into deep thoughts and it's hard to snap out of it. But when I'm playing my favorite sport, I focus on what my opponent is doing and think of what i can do and try to stop block them or test different moves to outmaneuver them. In this situation I don't have time to overthink; if I have an idea, I need to try it immediately. I know I need to improve my senses because I'm a bit slow to gatherinformationwith my senses, but I'm faster than before and i'm getting better over the years so i will get faster. I also like exploring new ideas and concepts, as long as they're not too complicated. I make the effort to understand them, improve them, and explain them to others. I like to test them in the real world, but I rarely get the opportunity to do so, which is frustrating.Ne is something I use often when I'm bored, and I'm bored quite often, so I use Ne a lot. Ne also involves hypothetical ansers or senarios which I don't excel at and don't particularly enjoy making them the one i make always turn out to be false but like to make up imaginery sensarios which never will happen in the reality but it's not like i'm going to make decisions or chooses based on those imaginary senarios I do hate the uncertainty some consepst or theories bring. However, I do appreciate the abstract aspects of many things and can stay in my imagination thoughts for hours. If I use too much Ne, my head becomes tired non-functioning and overwhelmed, and then using Se becomes a need. I start craving physical activities and sensory experiences. When it comes to my senses, I focus on what pleases me and how much my environment stimulates me. Do I like the music I'm hearing? Do I like the smell of a certain perfume? Do I like the aesthetic of the clothes I'm wearing? Although I'm usually not easily stimulated by the physical world, it can occasionally be overestimating, leading to over-focus on the activity or the way it make my senses feel. This is less frequent than getting lost in my thoughts, but it does happen.I also find it interesting to learn how things work and how they feel to my senses—what textures I can feel with my hand or what sounds things make. I don't like second-guessing my actions or decisions, and I engage in certain physical activities just for the adrenaline rush. I do trust my senses more than my theories

initially thought I was an ISTP with strong Ne, but apparently that's not possible, as ISTPs have a Ne blind spot. Now I'm confused about whether I'm an ISTP or INTP, or if I might just say I'm a ixtp
