Here’s How Each Personality Type Feels About the Chase
Some people need to feel like they are being challenged in order to remain interested in a relationship. While some enjoy chasing others prefer to be chased after, but there are some who hate the game entirely. Here is how each personality type feelings about the dating chase.
INFJ
INFJs definitely aren’t fans of having to chase someone, especially not for a long time. They are often more reserved when it comes to dating or finding the right people in their lives. They don’t enjoy feeling like they have to constantly compete for the person they like, especially after a certain amount of time has passed. INFJs want someone who feels equally as interested in them, and desire a sincere connection. INFJs can tell the difference between a false attraction crafted by the chase feeling, and someone they are sincerely connected to for real reasons.
ENFJ
ENFJs do like a challenge, which can sometimes draw them towards someone when they have to chase them a bit. While ENFJs enjoy the challenge, they will eventually become bored if their efforts aren’t making a real difference. They don’t want to be with someone who is constantly playing the field, and are only okay with it during the beginning of the relationship. Once things become more serious ENFJs want commitment and sincerity, and will become frustrated if they still feel like they have to chase after someone.
INFP
INFPs definitely aren’t fans of having to chase someone, and would much rather find someone they don’t have to chase. INFPs want to make real connections, not ones that are designed to make them feel butterflies that aren’t sincere. They would much rather find a connection with someone that they know can truly last. INFPs don’t enjoy feeling like someone is manipulating them, and will try to stay away from a relationship that is built on deceit.
ENFP
ENFPs do enjoy a challenge, so the chase can be a bit intriguing for them. They like anything that keeps them guessing and pushes their boundaries. ENFPs can get bored rather easily so feeling constantly on their toes is actually rather fun for them. ENFPs might enjoy the back and forth in the beginning of a relationship, and simply enjoy the excitement and the butterflies. They enjoy chasing after someone, but they also enjoy being chased a bit. They crave that excitement since they become bored easily, but at the same time they want it to end once the relationship become serious.
INTJ
INTJs aren’t really fans of having to chase after someone, they don’t enjoy wasting their time on someone. For INTJs it is important to make real connections with people, without some manipulative chasing game.

INTJs aren’t interested in games and will actually become bored with this sort of behavior rather quickly. They can see right through the manipulation, which makes it difficult to convince them.
ENTJ
While ENTJs want to make sincere connections, they don’t mind a little bit of a challenge. They can often see around the chase, but at the same time they don’t mind playing the game a little bit. For ENTJs it is exciting to be the one that snags the person everyone else is interested in and chasing after. ENTJs enjoy that sort of challenge and don’t mind pushing themselves in that way.

Once the commitment happens the ENTJ wants things to be serious and sincere.
