There's alotta similarities, and the obvious difference between the ENFJ and ENTJ is the NT/NF; but in dealing with the world and people (ie problem solving), what are the differences between these types?

I'm looking for something more in-depth than just 'ENFJs think about others feelings and ENTJs about reason'.

Thanks!

ENTJs are exceptionally blunt, so can an ENFJ but the ENTJ is more rugged and less socially aware then the ENFJ.

The ENTJ I know (22 y/o female) is combative... she likes to fight and argue. She is however mentally sharp and "take-charge" ish. The ENFJ (same age) I know is also "take-charge" ish but dislikes conflict. The ENFJ may fight on the outside if necessary but inside they HATE it. ENFJ's it seems will try at all costs to avoid it if necessary... ENTJ's are much more abrupt. ENTJ's take their sword (their words) and slice through things with a much more precise, quick, clean cut than ENFJ's. ENTJ for a female is sexy; ENFJ is sweet and passionate in all senses of the word! ENTJ's also, in my opinion, must have good sex or they are unhappy; ENFJ's make it less of a "must." ie: ENTJ may leave the rel. if the sex is not great; ENFJ would have a MUCH harder time doing this. They're both sexy and "take-charge," and I think that's what you see on the outside and how you could possibly get them mixed up, but ENFJ's are guided more by passions and ENTJ's intellect. Both, thrive off challenge, but for ENTJ's, again, it's intellectual and for ENFJ's it's in the realm of relationships.
