ENFJ in love

Mentors are devoted, affectionate partners who pour themselves into a relationship. The right person for them shares their values and wants to grow together, and they are happiest when the relationship feels like a team with a shared future. They tend to notice a partner’s needs before their own, so they need someone who will notice theirs in return.

INTJ in love

Strategists want a partner who is a true equal: honest, curious, and secure enough to respect independence. They are not big on clichéd romance, but they take commitment seriously and think about a relationship as a long-term project worth investing in. They would rather have one deep relationship than a string of casual ones, and they can take a long time to decide someone is worth it.
