ENFJ plans an anniversary surprise; ISTJ responds with one solid "thanks."
They'll see this match write-up. Your test answers stay with you.
These two
ENFJ × ISTJISTJ earns trust through consistency, not words; ENFJ wants feelings confirmed out loud. ISTJ always keeps promises, and ENFJ comes to lean on that. But when ENFJ pours out their feelings, ISTJ offers one practical fix. ENFJ wanted empathy and got an answer, and ISTJ can't see why helping made things worse. When that keeps happening, both start saying less.
