    intj-explained: This more or less encapsulates a discussion with an INTJ. It also explains why we can be so easily frustrated with conversation. While we don’t like being wrong, we do tend to admit it and change our opinions to go with the better or more factually grounded argument and defend it fiercely until reliable contradicting information is presented. Most people do not, preferring to maintain their old opinion out of stubbornness or a fear of looking foolish. The social pressures to appear right all the time outweigh the internal desire to be right. Since INTJs typically do not desire their conversations to be pointless circle-jerks where one party simply agrees with the other regardless of lack of support or evidence, and since INTJs are as stubborn in their beliefs as anyone else, “discussions” can get very frustrating very fast for everyone involved. Unstoppable force meeting an immoveable object, if you will.
