Comments
“As an ISTJ, my personal ideal type is: Someone comfortable to be with, someone who makes me their priority, someone who takes the initiative and is assertive, someone with clear boundaries between public and private life, a playful person, someone who uses sweet, smooth-talking words, a tall person, someone with few female friends. I hope you all find your crush!”

“ISTJ, someone who doesn’t get hurt over trivial matters, someone smarter than me who I can learn a lot from, someone who understands when I don’t contact often, someone with a clean relationship history, someone who quietly stays by my side when I’m having a hard time, someone who clearly separates work from personal life, someone who says ‘I love you’ instead of ‘you’re cute'”
“ISTJ, a calm person, a consistent person, a comfortable person, someone naturally considerate, someone shy and cute, an honest person”
“Very subjective ISTJ: likes immediate replies, should behave properly towards elders, likes it when you say or do things that give butterflies, likes it when you express first, likes quietly talking just the two of us, wants you to only look at me, someone hardworking in their own work”
“ISTJ – hates tsundere, likes someone caring and affectionate – hates push and pull, likes clear-cut people – someone trustworthy – someone cute (not cute actions or words but naturally cute behavior) – someone I can learn from – someone who clearly separates work and play (looks cool when they focus on work) – an honest person, someone by your side quietly when you’re struggling – someone good and kind”
“ISTJ (just my ideal type) A good person, a well-mannered person, a person who can control their drinking, a person who absolutely doesn’t smoke, a person who follows grammar rules”
“Be a useful person for me, someone who brings benefits, someone who doesn’t waste time when we’re together – passing by ISTJ”
“I’m in high school, and I’m falling for the subtle warmth and charm of my female homeroom teacher who I suspect is an ISTJ. She’s so cool being a science genius…teacher, it’s cheating to be this attractive! I love math already, but I’m working even harder now because I want to impress you. For the remaining 24 days, I’ll work my butt off to score at least the minimum!”
“ISTJ 1. A relationship with minimal contact – it’s better to not keep in touch constantly and share stories when we meet 2. A kind person – someone who doesn’t leave someone hanging in awkward situations 3. Meticulous, neat, self-developing – a person with their own order, doesn’t like messiness 4. Someone who talks more than me 5. Likes light skinship – prefers actions over words”
“ISTJ, Just like me. A person showing a planful side looks cool. I like straightforward men, but overacting is a no-no. I’m more attracted to someone purely factual than someone who makes me happy with a white lie. In terms of school, I prefer someone in neat clothes than those who wear casual clothes or cut their uniforms. I love someone who is polite. From a student’s perspective, I like someone who behaves according to their age and position (in other words, I don’t like students who smoke or drink). I strongly dislike people who cause harm to others. I find people showing unexpected sides a bit cute. Anything excessive is burdensome.”
“I believe that courteous people are the best. It’s not like Confucius and Mencius asking us to kowtow, but the small courtesies and expressions of gratitude that emerge in daily life that make us feel liked. Especially, I like people who greet well! Personally, I value recognition of my existence, so if someone greets me first, I start feeling curious and attracted. I like people who are generally bright. Is there anything as attractive as a justifiable argument being unfolded logically and gently? Admitting what needs to be admitted, complimenting the other person, a considerate person is the best… if they have a sense of humor, I would have been hopelessly in love.”
“ISTJ.. You should ask before doing something that you think you might mess up, admit what you don’t know and learn, respect my time, take care of small things quietly, say things I want to say but can’t (prevents stress), stay with me even when it’s annoying. Our bear Dora with beautiful eyes is an E-type, I love him, haha.”
“ISTJ – They are really handsome – Take care of you in a nonchalant way – They don’t curse – They study well.”
“ISTJ – I don’t need anything else, if a person is good according to my standards, I’ll like them. – The problem is, so far, no one I’ve met fits my standards.”
“ISTJ 1. Someone who maintains a lot of eye contact during conversation 2. Someone who knows when to play and when to focus, who can separate work and personal life (has clear boundaries) 3. Someone who treats me special, cherishes me, expresses love, and is not too glib but honest 4. Someone who manages themselves well 5. Someone who respects deadlines and time 6. ⭐️Intelligent and intellectual person (Very important)⭐️”
“ISTJ – Good looking or beautiful person – Someone I can learn from (and who can teach me) – Someone who repays kindness.”
“ISTJ, a person with manners, a meticulous person, a person who gives advice or guidance, an intellectual person, a person who keeps appointments well, a person who empathizes well, an adult-like but not too pedantic person, a person who manages themselves well, a humble person, a caring person, a person who follows grammar rules well, a person who approaches slowly, a person who respects individual privacy. When ISTJs like someone, they deny it until they have given it a lot of thought and finally acknowledge it while watching from a distance. There’s a high possibility that nothing will happen. While it’s great for someone to approach first, it can be burdensome. I recommend starting as friends and slowly wooing them..!”
“ISTJ 1. Text first but not too often, just occasionally. (Don’t wait till I feel desperate) 2. Show empathy, but too much can make it burdensome, although if it’s done by someone I like, it would be appreciated. 3. Don’t care about looks (depends on personal preference and personality is highly valued) 4. Avoid acts that could induce jealousy noticeable to the ISTJ 5. Always greet when you run into each other (I’d love it if the person I like greets first, but it’s also very embarrassing;) 6. ISTJs aren’t good at expressing love, so if you express it first without making it burdensome, it’s appreciated. 7. ISTJs are obsessed with proper grammar, so please, at least write grammatically correct texts with proper spacing. 8. ISTJs hate to feel unsure, so if you like them in translation to maintain character limit.”
“ISTJ – Bring up conversation topics or questions first when contacting or meeting in person (If I’m the only one asking and the other person just answers, I think they don’t like me) – Frequently communicate, but make calls in a suitable situation (If pressured or spammed with contacts, they might get annoyed) – Express your affection only towards me (If done to everyone, I think they are just that type of person) – It’s good to be moderately cute, but they prefer actions that are cute rather than appearing cute during communication – A person who respects and understands my opinions (If my opinions are empathized with and respected, the level of affection increases) – Only make logical statements (If you keep saying illogical, nonsensical things, the level of affection decreases) – A person with a wealth of knowledge (You should be good at spelling and spacing, and like smart people) – They look more at personality and values than appearance (Even if they consider height, they must be attractive to me, regardless of appearance).”

“ISTJ 1. If you are curt and aloof when you speak, it can be embarrassing for the ISTJ, so make sure to give plenty of reactions when the ISTJ is speaking!

“ISTJ – A kind person – Someone who clearly keeps their promises – A polite person (especially towards elders) – Someone from whom I can learn – Someone who manages themselves well – Someone who speaks well – Someone who can say ‘no’ when needed – Someone who keeps promises!! (Especially time commitments) – Someone who understands the need for alone time – Someone who expresses gratitude (+ subtly enjoys being complimented) – Someone who doesn’t impose or obsess (someone who makes me comfortable) – Someone subtly funny, someone who subtly shows their flaws (may be subjective, but seems quite cute) *Summary: A subtly funny person who expresses appropriately without any moral flaws or burden *If an ISTJ is subtly looking at you from somewhere: they want to be closer, they are interested/if they initiate conversation: they’ve run about 800 simulations in their head before they talk to you! (Definitely interested)”
“[ISTJ] 01-Strategy ▪ Someone who only has eyes for me ▪ Someone who makes me want to pat their head (cute person) ▪ Someone who is exclusively affectionate towards me ▪ Someone who understands my feelings without me having to express them ▪ Someone who has clean romantic relationships 02-If these happen, you’re successful ▪ When ISTJ subtly looks at you ▪ When they pat your head saying you did well ▪ When ISTJ includes you in their team when deciding teams These are purely my personal thoughts.“
“Could you help me with ISTJ males!! A new male friend and I live in the same direction and despite both of us having the same amount of luggage, he always offers to carry mine asking if it’s not too heavy. Could he be interested in me? I feel like he tries to keep the conversation going by asking questions but I’m confused. Actually, after being over-optimistic about another ISTJ once, I realized that they generally have high standards for basic manners.. haha I’m being cautious.”
“#ISTJ 1. Frequent contact -They prefer questions more than empathy -Tiki-taka is important! 2. Proper attitude -Always behave politely -Consider even the small things For example, ‘Let’s eat something else since XX doesn’t like seafood.’ 3. Act responsibly 4. Don’t act in a confusing manner -They like certainty (also in expressions) 5. Be honest about who you are -They dislike pretense and exaggeration 6. Act decisively -They get really frustrated with indecisiveness +They are attracted to smart people Please keep your grammar correct. ISTJ’s aren’t very interested in others, so if you want to get close to an ISTJ, you should behave morally but not approach too aggressively.. If you behave morally, ISTJ will start showing interest eventually! That’s when you can approach them~”
“If you look at the comments, even though the MBTI types are different, many of them mention ‘politeness’. Indeed, it’s the country of manners ㅇㅈ But manners are really important -A passing by ISTJ”
“ISTJ – Show your hard work and proficiency in any field (but not games) Don’t get annoyed over meticulous things Stick to the line”
“How should I attract an ISTJ? How should I confess? How much physical affection is okay??”
“I’m a passing ISTJ. I will keep passing by. Please leave me alone so I can do my work.”
“ISTJ ISTJ (Based on personal standards) – Someone who is polite and follows grammar rules well – Someone who keeps time and is planned – Someone who excessively deviates from norms is repulsive – Someone who is responsible about their own work – with similar content… “ISTJ – Considerate person – Person who maintains clear boundaries – Courteous person (especially polite to elders) – Person with qualities to learn from – Person who takes care of themselves well – Person who speaks beautifully – Person who can clearly state what is wrong – Person who keeps promises well!! (Especially time-related promises) – Person who understands the need for alone time – Person who expresses gratitude (subtly enjoys compliments) – Person who doesn’t put pressure or obsess (makes others comfortable) – Person who subtly makes you laugh, subtly shows their vulnerabilities (this could be personal preference, but they appear quite cute) *Summary: A subtly amusing person who expresses their feelings appropriately, without any moral flaws and who doesn’t impose pressure * If an ISTJ is subtly looking at you somewhere: They want to be close, they’re interested/If they start the conversation: They’ve run around 800 simulations in their head before speaking up!(Definitely interested)”

“Could ISTJ men help me out!! I have a new male friend and we live in the same direction, but despite both of us having the same amount of luggage, the ISTJ guy always asks if it isn’t too heavy and carries it for me. Do you think he’s interested? He does ask me questions and seems to want to continue the conversation, but I’m confused. After once misunderstanding another ISTJ’s intentions, I realized that their standards for basic manners are high… So, I’m cautious.”
“#istj 1. Keep in contact frequently – they prefer questions over empathy – Tiki-taka is important! 2. Correct attitude – Always behave politely – Show small acts of consideration e.g., ‘Since XX doesn’t like seafood, let’s eat something else’ 3. Act responsibly 4. Don’t behave in a confusing manner – They like clarity (even in expressions) 5. Show yourself as you are – They dislike pretense and exaggeration 6. Act decisively – They find indecisiveness very frustrating + They’re attracted to smart people, so please use correct grammar. ISTJs aren’t generally interested in others, so if you want to get close to an ISTJ, you should behave ethically, but not come on too strong. If you behave ethically, the ISTJ will eventually show interest. That’s the time to approach!”
“Seeing the comments, despite different MBTIs, many people mention the importance of etiquette. Indeed, it’s a country of eastern courtesy. But etiquette is indeed the most important – a passing ISTJ”
“ISTJ – Show that you work hard and excel in whatever field (However, not games) – No nagging about being meticulous – Stick to boundaries”
“How should I charm an ISTJ? How should I confess? How much physical affection is appropriate??”
“Passing by ISTJ here. I will continue to pass by. Please leave me alone to do my tasks.”
“ISTJ (of course, based on my personal criteria) – Person who follows etiquette and has good grammar – Time-keeping and well-planned person – Feels repulsed by excessive rule-breaking – Person who takes responsibility for their own matters – Person who.”
“ISTJ men, please help!! I just became friends with a guy who lives in the same direction as me. Despite us both having the same amount of luggage, he always asks me if it’s not too heavy and carries it for me. Could he be interested in me? He seems to ask questions and keep the conversation going to some extent, but I’m confused. After getting ahead of myself once with another ISTJ, I realized that they have high standards for basic manners… haha, so I’m being cautious.”
“#ISTJ 1. Frequently communicate – They prefer questions over empathy – The back-and-forth conversation is important! 2. Appropriate attitude – Always be polite – Show little considerations, for example, ‘since XX doesn’t like seafood, let’s eat something else.’ 3. Act responsibly 4. Avoid confusing behaviors – They prefer certainty (even in expressions) 5. Be honest about who you are – They dislike pretense and exaggeration 6. Act decisively – They are very frustrated with indecisiveness +They are attracted to intelligent people. Please maintain good grammar.

You can approach them at that point~”
‘When I read the comments, regardless of their MBTI type, many people emphasize the importance of being polite. After all, we are a country of etiquette, agreed. But politeness is indeed the most important. -Passing by, ISTJ'”, “‘ISTJ – Show that you are diligent and good in whatever field (but not games) – Do not complain about meticulous things – Adhere to boundaries’

Cute people (definitely not aegyo, but people who naturally have cute points) 7. People who have something to learn from.”
“ISTJ – People who don’t do what they obviously shouldn’t do (I wish they were people with common sense, there are many who are not…) People who have basic manners, can logically express their thoughts, and are not too emotional. People who express their dissatisfaction immediately rather than bottling it up. People who know when to say no, and have their own perspectives. I prefer people who’ve had a bit of a roller coaster life, rather than someone who’s lived a life too peacefully. Someone who is not too frivolous… Not doing things ISTJs dislike is far more important than doing things they like.”
“ISTJ – Ideal type : People who manage themselves (like working out, grooming eyebrows etc.) People who do their job well. People who don’t make hateful jokes (have a line they absolutely won’t cross, e.g., never disrespecting disabilities.) People who have their own opinions but also respect others’. People who aren’t too noisy and chaotic. People who strive to grow and don’t fear new challenges.”
