Don’t know your personality type?

If you’re active on Tinder, you’ve probably noticed that more and more people use four-letter codes, such as ESFP, INTJ, and similar, to describe themselves.

• Extraversion (E) or Introversion (I)

Tinder Personality Types and What Each One Means

There are 16 Tinder personality types you might come across, each with different personality traits that determine how easily they get along with other personality types.

INTP – The Architect (Introverted, Intuitive, Thinking, Perceiving)

INTPs are logical, objective, and inventive people. Although they are open-minded and thoughtful, they can be too private and insensitive, especially when they want to get their point across.

Typically, INTP personality types use Tinder only when they have nothing better to do. While they’re open to the idea of meeting someone special, they aren’t likely to message you first. So, your best bet to get their attention is to start a conversation about mutual interests or interesting scientific theories. Nonetheless, you may be surprised by how romantic INTPs can be!

INTPs are very compatible with NT and NF personalities, but they may find that they operate on a completely different wavelength from SF types.

ENTJ – The Commander (Extraverted, Intuitive, Thinking, Judging)

ENTJs are confident, strategic, and ambitious go-getters with natural leadership abilities. When they set their sights on something, they are unstoppable, but these forceful personalities can also be stubborn and controlling.

Since ENTJs value efficiency, they approach dating with abusiness-like attitude. They are very likely to mention their personality type in Tinder profiles, as it’s the quickest way for them to describe themselves without too much philosophy.

If an ENTJ finds your profile interesting, they’ll shoot you a message to ask you out without any hesitation because they want to immediately find out whether you’re compatible with them.

Speaking of compatibility, ENTJs tend to get along effortlessly with other NT personalities, but they may struggle to connect with SF types.

INTJ – The Mastermind (Introverted, Intuitive, Thinking, Judging)

INTJs are self-sufficient, reserved, and analytical people who see life through the lens of logic. As such, they can feel uncomfortable around overly emotional people. Sometimes, they can also seem arrogant or judgmental.

When you do come across one, you’ll notice that they’re interested in intellectual discussions. Showing your intelligence and knowledge is a surefire way to win an INTJ’s heart, as most of them identify as sapiosexuals. More often than not, they’ll judge you by your brainpower and not your looks.

The best matches for INTJs are NT types, but they also get along well with ENFP and INFJ types. Their compatibility is lowest with SF personalities.

ENTP – The Visionary (Extraverted, Intuitive, Thinking, Perceiving)

ENTPs are quick-witted, charming, and outgoing people. They value innovation over tradition and tend to be spontaneous. However, at times, they can be too argumentative and impractical.

On Tinder, these personality types usually don’t look for anything in particular, preferring to just have fun and see where it goes. They love a good debate, so don’t be surprised if their first message sounds polemical-they aren’t afraid to push people’s buttons and love playing the devil’s advocate! If you hit it off, ENTPs will flood you with endless original date ideas.

ENTPs are highly compatible with other intuitives, such as INTJs. However, they may find SJ types too rigid and clash with SF personalities.
