Make sure to watch each one of them and find out how you can approach a dating game with

INTP (Logician/Analyst) is a very unique personality type with a lot of great traits.
However, people with this personality type approach their romantic relationships in a
very interesting way.
The odd combination of characteristics that logicians have often comes as a pleasant surprise
to their romantic relationships.
This personality type may appear cerebral and restrained at first, but once their guard
is down, they reveal a lively, creative side.
However, a romantic relationship is an incredibly complicated matter and INTPs are at risk of
ignoring or misinterpreting the unpredictability of human nature and affection’s volatility.
Let's look at the most interesting things you should know about dating and relationships
with an INTP.
This can help you figure out which personality types are compatible and which aren't.
Furthermore, it will tell you how you can approach a dating game with a Logician and
how you can achieve success in that field.
Here are 10 Interesting Facts About Dating An INTP.
Number 1 – They need some space Asking INTPs how they're doing or how they're
feeling will probably irritate.
Logicians will be scared if you bombard with texts and are clingy.
These personality types enjoy their freedom as introverts (to an extreme at times).
There is always an interesting book to read or a new theoretical approach to investigate
thoroughly (alone).
INTPs will appreciate others forever if they respect their need for extended alone time
to refuel, restore and recharge.
Number 2 – They treat a romantic relationship as a friendship
INTPs are wary of relationships because they are afraid that their partner will try to
change them, and they aren't particularly fond of public shows of affection.
So, how should a romantic connection with an INTP be approached?
If someone wants to date an INTP personality, they should treat it as a friendship that
evolves into a romantic connection over time.
Not only would this ensure that a person with INTP compatibility actually wants to commit
to the relationship, but it will also ensure that they will not suffer the jitters that
come with dating.
After establishing a friendship, an INTP can discern whether their prospective partner
will try to change them or accept them as they are.
Number 3 - They will often agree to the things they don’t agree with
INTPs despise conflict, and while they may not be terrified of it, avoiding a fight or
even a simple difference of opinion is a must if a relationship is to remain harmonious.
As a result, INTPs are more likely to pick up on whatever others offer rather than getting
into a debate about who came up with the concept first.
But beware: sometimes an INTP may do this to the point where it appears as if they don't
have a thinking of their own!
When dating an INTP, the greatest person for them is someone who will tell them it's okay
to make various choices.
It may be tough to persuade Logicians to pursue their true desires, but a small nudge is sometimes
all they require.

Number 4 - They can be surprisingly sensitive INTPs are emotionally resilient in general,
but they will inevitably feel emotional or sensitive at times, even if they don't always
express it.
When dating an INTP, it's important to understand that INTPs can take criticism, especially
personal criticism, very seriously and remember it for a long time.
One word of caution: never dispute with them in front of others since the humiliation will
cause them to shut down totally.
Number 5 - They want to communicate directly INTPs value direct communication, and any
matching romantic partner must be confident in their ability to express themselves honestly.
Understanding tiny indications to their partner's unhappiness is difficult for INTPs.
If someone in a relationship with an INTP is unhappy, they must express themselves properly;
otherwise, the Logician will not see any problems.
Now, if their partner's remark is seen as valid from a logical position, an INTP is
highly inclined to try their hardest to improve.
However, if a Logician does not believe the criticism or issue is valid, they are unlikely
to change their minds.
Number 6 – They often appear distracted INTPs are prone to getting sidetracked and
going off on tangents since they do not think in a linear manner.
When talking to an INTP, it may appear that they don't understand what is being said,
but it's only that their mind has gone off on another track at 500 miles per hour!
This trait can make INTPs difficult to understand at times, but it also adds to the mystery
of why they think the way they do.
Because of this, dating a Logician may appear difficult, but others must understand that
it is their unique characteristics that they may find interesting most of the time.
Number 7 – They don’t like to be changed INTPs begin to be suspicious of relationships
for one reason: they feel their spouse will try to modify them or decrease their demand
for independence and distinctiveness.
Logicians enjoy their independence and alone time as introverts.
An INTP will be scared away if they get the impression that their partner is trying to
change them by making them more involved or accessible when they need their alone time.
People who are interested in this personality type or already in a committed relationship
with one, have to be sure they're comfortable giving INTPs the space they need to completely
operate and grow, or the relationship will almost certainly fail.
Number 8 – They have a specific way of flirting When it comes to flirting with others, INTPs
can be a little awkward at times, but that doesn't imply they're horrible at it.
Some Logicians learn to use and integrate their other functions in order to help them
comprehend their feelings for someone.
When the INTP flirts with someone, they generally try to be more lighthearted, even taunting.
This taunting might be nice at times, but if they go too far, it can be quite the opposite.
It all hinges on the INTP's ability to read others' boundaries and respond to them.
The Logician can be a witty and charming flirt when their functions are more developed and
mature.
When the INTP has a strong attraction to someone, they frequently require the other person to
make the first move in some fashion.
They may not require them to make overt advances, but they do require some indication that this
person is interested.
When the INTP notices this, they may do their hardest to flirt back, utilizing comedy and
fun to keep the other person interested and indicate that they like them as well.
It's not fully correct to categorize the INTP as a naturally uncomfortable flirt; it depends
on the INTP.
Flirting makes them nervous at times, but it isn't something they are absolutely frightened
of.
They just don't enjoy doing things that feel forced, thus their intelligence can be used
to entice someone in.
Number 9 – They will not make the first move
INTPs aren't the most sensitive to people's emotions, hence they're unlikely to initiate
a relationship.
They are much less likely to actively seek someone in a social context; they would prefer
a person to show that they are interested in them.
This relieves any nervousness that a person with a high INTP compatibility could experience.
However, just because INTPs are unlikely to initiate contact does not rule out the possibility
of them opening up; they only need to be aware that there is a special connection in order
to express themselves.
Number 10 – They seek for a partner who is not afraid of living life to the fullest
INTPs prefer to keep things interesting, therefore they need a partner that is eager to grow
with them.
They want someone who is open to new experiences rather than being stuck in a routine.
They are drawn to persons who are enthusiastic about things, and this type of enthusiasm
can be motivating for the INTP.
Someone who is eager to live life to the fullest and has a strategic approach to accomplishing
these objectives.
Even if they don't wish to look for this type of person, they may be more drawn to someone
who is extroverted and enjoyable.
Although it may appear scary at first, INTPs are drawn to persons who are different from
them and who have diverse perspectives.
For the Logician, someone who pushes them and has a unique approach to life will be
interesting.
This is because INTPs are often bored, and they desire someone who can truly inspire
them while also keeping them guessing.
