Weird Habits Of An INTJ Personality Type
Make sure to watch each one of and find out if you have any of them!
If the Myers–Briggs Type Indicator assessed you as an INTJ (Architect/Mastermind) Personality Type,
chances are you have some weird and peculiar habits. Being labeled
weird or awkward might have negative connotations, but for certain people,
it can be appealing and separates them from the usual. INTJs can certainly be labeled
as odd or peculiar, but this is largely due to people's inability to look beyond the surface.
Architects take a different approach to things, which can be perplexing to some others
and cause them to misunderstand where the INTJ is coming from. Architects are quite unique,
and some of their traits and behaviours can be very bizarre. Find out if you have any of these
weird habits and remember if you do, think of it this way. You are not some weirdo because of this,
you just possess some distinctive features which are typical for your personality type
that don't necessarily fit into particular social conventions and they are often characterized as
weird. Furthermore, most of them can help in reaching personal growth and self-improvement
so it is very beneficial to know them. Here are 8 Weird Habits Of An INTJ Personality Type.
Number 1 - INTJs can leave immediately
When doing group work or participating in a group activity, some INTJs may get up and leave. Yes,
you've heard that correctly. Architects can leave any meeting without a particular reason.
This weird habit is not unusual. INTJs have the ability to alter their minds regarding their
plans. They will not change their opinions but will benefit from a change of scenery. Allowing
themselves to go off on their own for a bit can help Architects maintain their energy levels
and ultra-focus they like. They'll return eager for more group time after a little alone time;
however, they definitely need some time alone to recharge and gather their thoughts.
Number 2 - INTJs find love very late in life While most people begin dating in their
teenage years, this is often not the case for everyone. Architects are more likely to be
alone and many people are perplexed by this aspect of the INTJ personality type.
INTJs often do not understand others who are in relationships, but do not share the special
connection between each other. People find it a weird habit if someone wants to be alone and be
happy without the company of another person. Many people are content to be alone (including many
people with INTJ personality) and most people require the presence of another person in their
lives in order to thrive. The INTJ personality type might fall anywhere in the middle. Architects
like to know their potential partner well before they start a romantic relationship with them.
Number 3 - INTJs are easily annoyed People with the INTJ personality type
are quickly irritated. Architects get tired of trying to tolerate everything.
Certain actions and individuals can annoy them instantly. Architects are prone to having a
string of experiences that are unbearable to them. Many individuals find this weird because they do
not react in the same way. Everyone has issues, but an INTJ personality appears to take things
very personally. Because INTJs are logical thinkers, it might be difficult for them to
understand why others act the way they do. Introverts by nature, people with
this personality type can feel irritated if they are forced to spend too much time with others.
Some people may take offence to this if they believe they are the source of it. People who
aren't used to INTJ personality qualities may find these particular behaviours weird and confusing.
They can be perplexing and unpleasant to an INTJ who may not grasp what is going on.

Number 4 - INTJs have a favourite company - themselves
INTJs have extremely complex inner thoughts, which they frequently choose to spend time in.
They don't need to be with people all of the time, and they may even shy away from romantic
relationships while they're younger. INTJs prefer to wait for someone special to come along
instead of forcing themselves to be around others with whom they don't fully connect.
Being alone with their thoughts and imagination is frequently more fulfilling for the INTJ
than mingling with individuals who do not understand or accept them for who they are.
Others may find this unusual at times, as they don't fully comprehend
why the INTJ needs so much alone time. And when people don't understand why Architects
need to isolate themselves from social contacts, it's easy for them to think INTJs are weird.
Number 5 - INTJs will argue for life Defending yourself in any situation until you're
out of breath would seem praiseworthy — as long as what you're defending makes sense. However,
when it comes to INTJ personality types, this habit is basically a pain in the ass.
INTJs have some trust issues, they do not open to others instantly.
This obviously affects their friendships and relationships. Furthermore, INTJs despise being
proven incorrect. They assume that because they devote so much time to developing the
best solutions to their problems, so NO ONE could possibly disagree with them.
Even when provided with the exact facts, they will not only maintain their truth (no matter
how flawed it may be), but will also correct you or try to convince you that every issue has
two sides. It's safe to say that disagreeing with an INTJ will never end well for others.
Number 6 - INTJs are in the cult with logic INTJs use their head and logic in it to do
everything: think, feel, and decide. While there's nothing wrong with having a logical inclination
and being a more analytical person than a feeler, there is such a problem as relying on
logic too much. Architects believe that everything has a reasonable explanation, and that as long as
they use their knowledge and reasoning to solve problems, they will always find a solution. Well,
no one needs to listen to it for very long to realize that not everything requires such much
dissection and analysis. Sometimes intuition and feeling are the best ways to address problems,
while other times there are no perfect answers. This especially applies to romantic relationships
and the feelings of other people. Does this mean that INTJs won't attempt everything they can to
figure out the answer through logic and reasoning although it's not applicable? Obviously not.
Number 7 – INTJs are often too judgmental to build a romantic relationship
To people around them, INTJs can appear cold and unfeeling, making it difficult for them
to form long-term relationships. So much so that relationships and even friendships
struggle and frequently fail as a result of their inability to
entirely let down their guard. Because INTJs may be extremely critical of others — even
if they aren't aware of how harsh they can be — dating them can feel more like putting
yourself on display for them to tear apart than genuinely getting to know one another.
INTJs are one of those people who do better in love when they aren't trying;
the more they attempt to make a relationship work, the more judgmental their behavior becomes.
As a result, this personality type has a hard time maintaining long-term relations. That’s
why they sometimes prefer casual interactions since it relieves them of some of the burden.
Number 8 – INTJs can be extremely awkward
INTJs may not recognize they have awkward behaviors, but this is due to their lack of
social connections. The awkward Architects can be blunt and to-the-point, which can be off-putting
to certain individuals, who don't enjoy the INTJ's tendency to be harsh in their communication.
When the INTJ is attempting to approach a new social scenario, they may appear quite confident,
but that doesn't imply they aren't exhibiting some odd behaviors. This is due to their inability to
intuitively sense people' feelings or needs, and as a result, they might be too direct
and to-the-point while communicating. Even when the INTJ tries to connect emotionally,
they aren't naturally expressive, thus this might be difficult for them at times. Because they are
quickly distracted and fatigued with most people, they may appear to be behaving in ways that people
do not often bond with. This extreme awkwardness is a very Weird Habit Of An INTJ Personality Type.
