Why The Single Intj Rather Stay Single

Why The Single Intj Rather Stay Single explores key ideas related to psychology, presented clearly and practically.



In a world run solely on rationality, the

INTJ’s approach to love would be considered

sometimes this logical type may overlook the

affection and connection that goes into romance,

leaving them rather oblivious. But that’s not the

only reason some INTJs prefer to stay single..

Welcome or welcome back psychos! Today’s video is

all about the reasons some single INTJs wouldn’t

want it any other way. But before we get into

it, we’d love it if you liked and subscribe

Settling down with a partner sounds nice to

most people with this curious personality type,

but when it comes down to actually getting to

know someone to make that happen, things can be

particularly challenging. In fact, finding someone

worth getting to know is this introvert's first

challenge, and having such particular standards

doesn’t always help their chances. And so,

to put it simply, the whole idea of romance can

just seem too overwhelming for the sensible INTJ.

Most particularly after a failed attempt or

two, INTJs may be interrupted by their logic

questioning if it’s worth all the time and effort

they were originally ready to put in. Luckily,

they usually remain open-minded, should something

(or in this case someone) cross their path.

Number 2: Long term connections seem to get boring

Okay, let’s just start by saying all romantic

connections have their moments of adventure

and stagnancy. But in this case, when it comes to

long term commitments and connections in relation

to the INTJ, things can get a little iffy. In

fact, some INTJs report being in a relationship

for a few years and still not feeling 100%

sure about the long term aspect of things.

the forefront of most of their decisions,

INTJs will notice stagnancy sooner than most

types. It’s not necessarily that they get bored

of their partner, but they can easily get bored of

just being in a relationship for the heck of it.

If they feel like they’re being held back from

executing their elaborate plans for success,

ready. Which bring is to our next point..

Number 3: They don’t want to feel obligated

dating game just for the sake of it being the

next step society is expecting them to take.

While it may seem like the logical thing to do if

you’re looking to settle down and start a family,

INTJs have logic of their own that goes against

these societal structures. But for the INTJ who

has numerous goals and plans of their own, they

ultimately strive to do things their own way, and

that includes finding someone when THEY feel

it’s the time. In fact, INTJs can see the flaws

and incompatibilities within their friends and

family’s relationships more than others. They

absorb these understandings to the point that

when it comes to weighing out their pros and

cons of stepping into the dating realm, the latter

sounds much more appealing, objectively of course.

Some INTJs are fully open to finding someone,

but simply feel overwhelmed by the idea of it.

Like we just said, this analytical type can

easily see the discrepancies in other romantic

relationships. In turn, they use this knowledge

to decipher what they want and don’t want when in

their own romantic connections. However, this

only encourages the logical aspect of things,

people with awesome partner-potential simply

because they didn’t match a logical criteria.

Approaching love with rational thinking can

certainly pay off in certain aspects of things,

the fact that love is inherently imperfect

or that it requires building and mistake-making

in order for a genuine connection to flourish.

Most INTJs know it about themselves or have

at least heard it from a past partner.. Their

demeanor can seem rather aloof, disinterested

and insensitive at times. And with that usually

comes a lot of criticisms and expectations for

improvement from their partners who crave the more

love-dovey aspects of romance. Besides the fact

that INTJs are more intune with using rationality

over feelings and emotions, they personally

have another take on this lack of affection.

isolated from others that, even though I loved her

with my whole heart, my heart wasn't very big. It

took me the entire 4 years of our relationship to

build up what I consider "normal" human emotions.”

Number 6: They’re much happier with friendships

INTJs are awesome friends. With little-to-no

easily get along with others, preferring to keep

a smaller group of like-minded people around.

In fact, because of their introverted and

seemingly reserved nature, some would think that

INTJs would be rather antisocial. However, nothing

excites an INTJ more than finding someone that

thinks similarly to them, whom they can bounce

their most elaborate ideas off of. It becomes much

easier to get along with people knowing there

are no strings attached. So, when an INTJ is

content with their small group of intellectual

equals, it can be difficult to imagine giving

up their limited free time for a romantic

connection. Ironically, in most cases, INTJs

will end up in the happiest relationships with

the person they first befriended for some time.

Number 7: They’re too focused on their career

If there’s one personality type that would

happily prioritize work over love, it would

be the single INTJ. Besides the fact that they

fully invest themselves into their performance,

INTJs get a sense of fulfillment from using their

problem-solving and perfectionism strengths.

However, most people with this type believe if you

want something done right, you’d better do it by

yourself.. And so they’re mostly often drawn

to lone-wolf career positions that allow them

to make the most of their creativity without

having to explain themselves along the way.

And that includes having to explain themselves to

a partner who may want a different direction in

life. Rooted in their passion and determination,

some INTJs are on a one-way-track to success,

nothing but another possible distraction.

Number 8: They don’t know how to be a partner

when they’ve had the time to properly research the

topic. However, when it comes to romance, there is

only so much research you can do before you have

to just go out and experience it for yourself.

Like most life-lessons, you need to do the nitty

gritty work in order for people to learn a lesson.

Sure, this observing type may be able to get

an idea through analyzing others and watching

had a failed attempt or 2 at love, or they’re

just stepping out into the world or romance,

the ambitious INTJ can become quite hesitant

if they don’t feel confident with what they

bring to the table. And ultimately, INTJs know

romance isn’t necessarily their strong suit.

Unlike their INFJ-feeler counterpart, INTJs don’t

see romantic partnerships as anything like the

fairytale books. Some INTJs may just simply

conclude that romance isn’t worth the logical

aspects of it like the time and effort needed to

make it successful. They know they underestimate

the challenges that come with a partnership,

and they’re not exactly willing to find out

for themselves. With so many aspects to life and

options you can take, in the eyes of a young INTJ,

romance is nothing but another option you can

take. It’s not to say that their conclusion is

permanent, but sometimes INTJs don’t need any

other reason for not stepping into the dating

game other than the fact that it doesn’t seem

as fine and dandy as other’s portray it to be.
