I forgot to ask for clarity around Thinking versus Feeling. …Is there really any doubt about that?" Would it be possible for you to contact this person again in order to verify the INTJ/INFJ question by 100%? “At least I think it’s INTJ! I forgot to ask for clarity around Thinking versus Feeling.

…Is there really any doubt about that?”

Would it be possible for you to contact this person again in order to verify the INTJ/INFJ question by 100%?

He was so much broader in his imagining and mysticism (dare I say this). An INFJ or INTJ seemed more likely. As an INTP, I was always a bit tepid on the idea that Jung was my type.

I actually dreamt about the mistake. Talk about a WWJD (What would Jung do) moment. Oops, I meant to say Ti tertiary. I actually dreamt about the mistake.

I'm INTJ and have wondered if he purposefully wrote using the style of his auxiliary or tertiary.....weird theory, but it keeps popping up as a possibility in my mind.

Most INFJs I know in modern society *must* develop the tertiary more than normal because the INFJ preferences are ill-suited for our modern world devoid of mysticism and poetry (to summarize a very complicated reasoning). The INFJs I know who don't develop Te "out of order?" - they're poets and mystics. I’ve always thought he was an INFJ with a very developed Te tertiary.

Well, today I was discussing with someone precisely Jung's type (would you call that synchronicity?). My impression was introverted intuition all the way. But, seemingly unlike you, I tend to think he uses introverted thinking intensely (more than a NiTe should). What if he was an infj who (willingly) developed his tertiary to a great extent, maybe to counterballance his secondary? To you he seems so similar to intjs? My husbad is also intj (I'll just ignore the coincidence) and he's much less interested in 'human systems' than Jung was. He does have that mystical/empiricist combo, though. But maybe it also depends on each person's evolution and calling. Hello, Vicky.
