Thank you, I can verify this! It made me see things more clearly about me and a male ENTP-friend I have. He is very blunt and harsh when he (quite truthfully, because I am an "unhealthy INFJ") points out my faulths, but he has toned down the criticism when he noticed my emotional response, and he has several times shown an unusual amount of patientience and tolerance when it comes to some of my faults. According to common friends, he really is unusually tolerant toward me, as he normally does not allow people to explain themselwes or give them new chances after having done similar things as I have. This all goes very well with what you say above.
I can identifiy a difference between the dynamics with an ENTP and an ENFP; while the ENFP balances the INFJ, and have a tolerance that are - I feel - more emotionally secured, the ENTP stimulates the INFJ, and his tolerance is much more... conditional: the INFJ feels she can trust the tolerance of the ENFP to last, but that the tolerance of the ENTP is not eternal, but comes with the condition to chance. The ENTP, while they do have as strong feelings and almost as strong intuition as INFJ, does not allow themselwes to be ruled by them, and when they have gone against their principles enough to show tolerance in a situation they normally would'nt, simply because they care, then they expect a similar effort from the other party.
