Weaknesses of The INTJ Female
They Come Off As Insensitive
The INTJ female comes off as insensitive to a lot of other people because they do not always understand emotions. But they can be good at reading the room so they pick up hints which can only go as far. This can make it harder to make friends.
One thing that can help them is understanding just how to go about emotions and emotional people. It can be hard but not impossible.
They Struggle With Romance
This doesn’t really come as a shocker considering they have an insensitive side to them and also end up analyzing everything with logic which can make it difficult for their partners.
They have to understand sometimes you just need to let the emotions out and relationships are not a task to be completed or a problem to solve.
They Struggle With Insecurity
The INTJ is a lot of things and this can make them seem impenetrable but they have an insecure side that makes them ever more withdrawn. They stand to struggle with depression, anxiety, paranoia and even analysis paralysis.
Being doubtful of your own self can be overwhelming and difficult and terrible for anyone. Constantly working on it and knowing no one is perfect is one way to go about it.
What Dating An INTJ Female Is Like
The INTJ female and romantic relationships can be tricky. As amazing as they are, in relationships, they usually don’t know what to do. They know they enjoy quality time and physical touch and they also enjoy acts of service, gift giving and occasional words of affirmation. But if you’re looking to date an INTJ female, you might want to consider a few things.
- They prefer a direct style of communication and beating about the bush just makes you lose them. Fast.
- They love intimacy but do not be too fast with that as it can throw them off too. But once it’s established they like you and do not mind you touching them, please do not be afraid to initiate contact. If they don’t want that, do not force it. Respect their boundaries.
- Understand that they are pretty blunt in the way they talk. If they love you, they might try to minimize this a little bit. It’s bound to slip out every once in a while. They do not want to hurt your feelings intentionally.
- Do not lead them on if you do not want a defined relationship. This can make them overly analytical and question everything till they find a logical explanation to that. They always want to know where they stand. It doesn’t mean they want a commitment. They just need to know what’s going on. Don’t just lead them on.
- They love an intelligent partner and consider sharing information as foreplay so do not forget to mentally stimulate them.
The INTJ female is pretty straightforward in all their pursuits and what you see is what you get.
