Can Intj be sympathetic?
INTJs are actually quite adept at seeing things from the perspectives of individuals far different from themselves and, as a result, are much more empathetic than stereotypes would imply. You may find them strongly empathetic and concerned with protecting underdogs or persecuted people or animals.
How do I turn sympathy into empathy?
There are many ways you might be practicing sympathy in your life that can easily be turned into more meaningful and powerful acts of empathy.
- Hold back on the advice.
- Avoid showing pity.
- Don’t assume you know the whole story.
- Validate difficult emotions.
- Ask questions.
How empathetic are intjs?
And given INTJs are all about exploring alternate futures/realities, I’d say this makes us quite adept at empathy if we choose to engage with it. Again, being empathetic doesn’t mean you have to allow emotions to overwhelm you… it simply means being able to understand and appreciate why the other person is feeling the way they do.
Are intjs emotionally unintelligent?
In that sense, INTJs are extremely emotionally unintelligent. On the other hand, though, when an INTJ genuinely cares about someone – and there are truly very few people who get to this level – you would be hard-pressed to find another type who devotes as much time, energy, interest, and care into you as an INTJ does.
Is empathy an extroverted feeling function?
Not because empathy is considered an extroverted feeling function, but because it is considered a high functioning INTJ characteristic. Some INTJs demonstrate empathy (in their own weird way) but many do NOT. I’ll give you half. You praise others.
What is it like to have an INTJ best friend?
Any close friend of an INTJ will literally become a subject of study – every one of your thoughts, feelings, dreams, opinions, and preferences will be meticulously analyzed and logged away for future reference. Very few types can match the intensity of an INTJ’s focus when their interest falls on you.
