S+ tier compatibility. The 'Romeo and Juliet' (comedy version) of the MBTI world. As long as they can solve issues of practical self-sufficiency, they are perfect.

Mutual Attraction

What INFJ sees in ENTP

  • Deeply attracted by the ENTP's witty humor, unconventional approach, and courage to challenge all rules.
  • ENTPs are the only ones who can make an INFJ laugh and understand their most abstract concepts.
  • Admires the ENTP's strong logical analytical ability (Ti), which is a direction INFJs aspire to develop.

What ENTP sees in INFJ

  • Attracted by the INFJ's mysterious, unfathomable, and paradoxically charming demeanor (ENTPs love solving puzzles).
  • The INFJ's empathy and warmth (Fe) make the often-offending ENTP feel accepted.
  • Amazed by the INFJ's intuition (Ni) that can accurately foresee possibilities, and unconsciously desires to rely on this guidance.

Fatal Attraction Moment

The ENTP made an extremely dark joke, which everyone found offensive, but only the INFJ understood the absurdity and sadness behind it and burst out laughing. In that moment, the ENTP was smitten.

Four-Dimensional Compatibility

Dimension 1

Energy Source: I (Introversion) × E (Extraversion)

Complementary Homebodies

ENTPs are the most introverted extraverts, and INFJs are the introverts most capable of appearing extraverted. Their social rhythm is highly compatible. ENTPs lead INFJs to explore novelties, and INFJs accompany ENTPs in deep contemplation.
If the ENTP gets too wild, the INFJ might not keep up; if the INFJ becomes too reclusive, the ENTP might get bored and leave.

The Best Playmates.

Dimension 2

Perception: Ni (Introverted Intuition) × Ne (Extraverted Intuition)

Focus vs. Divergence

A perfect thought loop. ENTPs brainstorm 100 possibilities (Ne), and INFJs instantly identify the essence of which one is most critical (Ni). This synergy is unbeatable in both work and life.
Lack of grounding. Both strongly dislike details and execution (inferior Se and Si). Together, they might theorize a perfect cosmic theory, but no one will do the dishes or pay the utility bills.

Joy Floating in the Clouds.

Dimension 3

Judgment: F (Feeling) × T (Thinking)

Fe (Warmth) × Ti (Truth)

Mutual education. INFJs teach ENTPs to consider others' feelings, while ENTPs teach INFJs not to be swayed by emotions but to look at logic. Both see their missing half in the other.
The ENTP's sharp tongue often pokes at the INFJ's pain points for fun; the INFJ is too sensitive and can take the ENTP's jokes seriously, leading to hurt feelings and cold wars.

A daily routine of loving arguments and witty banter.

Dimension 4

Lifestyle: J (Judging) × P (Perceiving)

Holding the Kite's String

The INFJ is the one holding the string, bringing necessary structure and direction to the ENTP's life; the ENTP is the kite, taking the INFJ to see higher vistas and breaking the INFJ's rigidity.
If the INFJ controls too tightly, the ENTP will break free; if the ENTP is unreliable too often, the INFJ will let go.

The Art of Dynamic Balance.

Deep Dive Analysis

The Jester and the Straight Man

The ENTP takes the lead, enthusiastically boasting, while the INFJ watches with a gentle smile, occasionally adding an insightful remark that makes the ENTP appear even smarter.

Sapiosexual and Nurturing/Developmental

Their intimacy is filled with intellectual games and role-playing. The ENTP enjoys peeling back the layers of the INFJ's heart like an onion, and the INFJ enjoys taming the ENTP's wild nature like a trainer.

Provocation and Withdrawal

The ENTP provokes (debates) the INFJ to get attention or for fun -> The INFJ feels their values are attacked and withdraws (door slam warning) -> The ENTP panics and tries to reconcile with logic -> The INFJ rejects logic and focuses solely on feelings -> The ENTP breaks down.

Breaking Point: The ENTP learns to joke appropriately; the INFJ learns not to conflate opinions with personal character.

Triggers for INFJ

  • The ENTP's frivolous, unserious attitude.
  • The ENTP's disregard for commitments.
  • The ENTP attacking the sacred areas of the INFJ's beliefs.

Love Survival Guide

Advice for INFJ

Golden Rule: Don't try to turn him into a 'good boy'; instead, get a little 'naughty' with him.

  • View his provocations as a bid for attention, not an attack.
  • When his mind is bubbling with ideas, play along with him; don't pour cold water on it by calling it 'wishful thinking'.
  • If you're truly angry, tell him directly, 'You've crossed a line,' and he will respect it.
  • Let him be responsible for brainstorming ideas, and you be responsible for turning those ideas into reality.

Advice for ENTP

Golden Rule: Her boundaries are higher than you imagine, but also more fragile; don't cross them.

  • Argue less; winning a debate but losing your partner isn't worth it.
  • Give her a sense of security, not just verbally, but also through actions (e.g., coming home on time).
  • When she's silent, don't press her; offer her a cup of tea and wait for her to speak.
  • Show your mature and reliable side; she is actually attracted to competence.

Ideal Dates

  • Escape room/murder mystery game: A double test of intellect and acting, both of their strengths.
  • Tech exhibition/comic con: Satisfies curiosity.
  • Late-night street food stall: Have a few drinks, discuss philosophy and the universe until dawn.
