The ENTP awkward phase is a time, normally in the teen years, where the naturally goofy and loveable ENTP, represses themselves in order to fit in.
The problem with this is that ENTPs are well… naturally unique. Not everyone is like them which is why they’re one of the rarer personalities. Yet they want to fit in somewhat and to do this, they start repressing their naturally unique personality. It could be their weirdness, their loudness, their talkative nature, their annoyingness or anything really. But repressing it feels awful and it can lead the ENTP to feeling really upset.
When in this phase, ENTPs may fit in, but can still come across as rather introverted or just awkward. Yet this frustrates the ENTP because they know that that isn’t themselves at their best, and it feels like barely anyone knows what they’re actually like.
It can be hard to break out of this phase and be your happy ENTP self again, but the key is to not care about others. Their expectations shouldn’t be stopping you from being yourself. It doesn’t matter if they think you’re kind or not, what matters is your happiness and if being yourself upsets them, then that’s too bad.
As an ENTP, your charm comes from your weird and loveable personality and by repressing it, you’re no longer special.
Once you can accept your personality you won’t be acting or repressing yourself. Instead you’ll enjoy being yourself and find that everyone else is naturally drawn to you when you can do that sincerely.

One of the major things I love about ENTPs is that you don’t generally let conflicts fester. You deal with problems directly, you can’t stand passive-aggressiveness, and you prefer openness and honesty in your relationships. That’s amazing.
I also love your confidence. Whether it’s quiet or loud, it works, and everyone can tell you are generally pretty confident in yourself and your abilities.
I love that you can enforce rules without being a control freak or micromanager. It’s perfect. You are really excellent at being in charge. You don’t try to put in place meaningless rules or regulations, but you do put in place enough rules to effectively close loopholes and get the job done. Once you’ve practiced and had experience in leadership,your style is perfect. Don’t change a thing.
I love that you’re protective of the people you love. It’s really, really awesome. I am more than a little in awe of how intense you can be when you need to protect or defend someone. It’s perfect.
I love that you don’t seem to try. Everything you do seems effortless and easy, and you seem to excel at whatever you do. I know that can’t be true, but it still appears that way, and I love it.
ENTPs will see all the possible outcomes of a situation before you can even finish processing one
They’ll have you second-guessing yourself in seconds
While you may be lulled into thinking that ENTPs are socially and emotionally inept, they’re looking to turn the tables on the people making them look awkward
Have uncrackable poker face
Masters of subtle sarcasm –Are they joking? Are they serious? Are they making fun of you? You’ll never know and therefore never have the upper hand
Nothing is ever enough, they always need more, they need to know more, they need to see more, they’re black holes
ENTPs find loopholes in everything, especially rules

you go at about 30% of your capabilities most of the time and then when the chips are down, your P flips to hardcore J and you show everyone the badass within - you then wonder why everyone is surprised.

The most stubborn open-minded people you’ll find.

INTP: jinn (or genie): Sapient spirits with either a kind or benevolent nature. Usually invisible or in shadow form but also able to take many forms and possess human bodies. They travel ceaselessly and instantaneously from one place to another.
ENFP: fairy (or fae, fairie and fair folk): Small structured creatures that inhabit forests, lakes, mountains, rivers and springs. They fly with insect or butterfly wings or even on birds.

They inhabit forests, hills and mountains and on a misty morning or a starry night they can be seen from afar dancing in circles. Most believe that elves are immortal or live thousands of years, but one can never be sure.
INFP: ghost (or spirit, phantom and spectre): A ghost is usually a spirit of a dead person unable or unwilling to pass into the afterlife. They mostly choose to stay invisible and haunt humans and places they have been when alive. This meets the idea of the “unfinished business” of a ghost on Earth. Children are most likely to feel the presence of such spirits.

ENTP: alien or extraterrestrial being: Space-originated life forms that inhabit planets other than ours. Gifted with great intelligence and a variety of other potential, are often accused of abducting human beings.
