INTP friendship compatibility: best friends with INTJ. As a friend, INTP is the 2 a.m. rabbit-hole sender: the person who replies three days late, then sends a forty-minute video on why bridges hum. The stereotype paints INTPs as easygoing, curious and allergic to forced plans, the friend who is great company on a long walk and terrible at remembering birthdays. They show care by thinking hard about your problem, not by bringing soup. In our friendship rule INTP's top match is INTJ, who shares the N, the I and the T and supplies the plan an INTP will happily follow. Same-type INTP friendships score high too, but nobody will book the restaurant. The hardest pairing on paper is ESFP, the karaoke opener, whose love of a crowded room meets an INTP's love of a quiet corner.
