ENTPs & Heartbreak: What Breaks an ENTPs Heart

What breaks an ENTPs heart? Well, it depends on the ENTP and how well you know them.

Each person has their own way of getting over a breakup and needs to do things in a certain way to move on and deal with what’s happening inside them.

It’s essential to learn more about ourselves, so we can figure out how to get over heartbreak.

That being said. How about ENTPs and heartbreak? What breaks ENTPs’ hearts, and how do they handle situations like this?

In a nutshell, these are probably the things that will hurt an ENTP the most:

• Not being taken seriously (especially their golden ideas)
• Being hurt on purpose by someone they love and trust
• When someone turns them down after seeing who they really are
• When people use the fact that ENTPS love them… against us them!
• Knowing that bad things are happening and that they can’t do anything about it because it’s the way things are

Let’s now dive deeper into the topic, shall we?

How Does ENTP Deal With Heartbreak?

As rational people, ENTPs often look for logical reasons for things and try to figure out why they hurt so much. They try to figure out how to understand what has happened and learn from what they have been through.

At first, the shock can be challenging, and even though ENTPs might not show it, they still feel emotions very deeply. They find it hard to talk about their feelings in a way others can understand, so they sometimes try to do this independently.

ENTPs have many ways to deal with breakups. Still, they often start by trying to understand what happened and end up wanting to be alone because of how bad and painful the situation is.

Even though ENTPs might not seem like the most emotional people, it can be hard to just “get over it” when they care about someone.

Heartbreak can be very hard on the ENTP’s soul; at first, it can feel like the end of the world.

They probably won’t tell most people unless they trust and feel completely safe with that person.

At first, this process can be emotionally draining for them, and they may feel like they want to stay away from people.

Because ENTPs want to know everything, it can be hard for them to let go after a breakup. When they care about the person, they often want to figure out what went wrong and might even try to talk to their ex to make things work.

They will want to find ways to fix the problems and think about them too much until they are completely worn out. They might try to figure out why they and their partner are breaking up and become sure that things can be made better.

The ENTP might even try to stay friends with this person in case they can get back together in the future.

This is probably just the beginning. Once they really think about how they feel and how things went, it will be easier for them to move on and even let go of the past.

Focusing too much on their introverted sensing function, which sends them down a rabbit hole of memories, is a problem for the ENTP. 

These memories can make it hard for the ENTP to let go or find a way to move on, making them think about even the most minor details of the past.

ENTPs might start looking for risky things to do

This is more likely to happen with younger or less mature ENTPs.

Anything that makes them feel good or keeps them from thinking about the feelings they don’t want to face. 

They go back and forth between being completely alone and wanting to be surrounded by other people.

This could mean going out with friends all the time or even having a one-night stand now and then. 

Whatever they can do to keep their minds off the pain they are probably feeling and on something else.

ENTPs feel these emotions in a way that makes it hard to fully process them immediately, so that’s often what they need to do.

ENTPs who are older and wiser know this about themselves and that they can be harder on themselves than anyone else. 

Seeing that they need to work through their feelings, they can be good at taking some time alone to cry and really let it all out.

This is a hard step for most people, so they tend to focus on things that take their minds off their feelings or help them stay away from them.

Even though it’s not easy, ENTPs must understand how they feel after a breakup. When they are heartbroken and scared because of the breakup, the last thing they should do is ignore how they feel.

This doesn’t mean they should wallow in their misery for a long time because that can worsen things. At first, the ENTP can let go of these feelings by crying, making art, or talking to a trusted friend about them.

Before they can find a way to move on, they need to talk about how they feel, either alone or with someone else. Keeping their feelings inside can make it hard for them to move on, so it’s crucial that they let them out.

After the ENTP has really let things out, they need to focus on getting their lives back on track. Often, a complete break is best because it helps them get over the past and the feelings they have about their ex.

Getting this much distance can make them feel better about the future and even help them see the past more clearly.

Seeing what went wrong between them and their ex can help an ENTP look at the situation logically and determine how they can improve and learn from it. The ENTP can often use growth to their advantage.

How Do ENTPs Handle Rejection?

ENTPs deal with rejection without letting it get to them too much. They don’t like to feel like they allow their feelings to control their decisions, making them lose their sense of logic.

Instead, when dealing with rejection or criticism, ENTPs want to be logical and find ways to understand why it happened. Sometimes, they realize that it has nothing to do with them and shouldn’t be taken that way.

In other cases, they might figure out what they could do to improve and avoid being turned down again. They like to learn from these things, and they prefer to constantly look for ways to grow from what happens.

ENTPs don’t pay as much attention to how they feel in response, and they might even try to avoid those feelings.

However, being turned down can be a little hard for an ENTP when it comes to people they care about.

Even if they care about someone, they will likely try to keep their emotions in check and look at the situation logically.

Even though this is what the ENTP will try to do, it still hurts when someone they care about turns them down.

When someone they care about turns them down, it can be hard for them to deal with, especially if they haven’t learned how to deal with their feelings better. 

If an ENTP has spent too much time hiding their feelings and not learning how to accept them, they will find it even harder when loved ones reject them.

They might show their anger when they don’t expect to because these feelings will come out in less positive and healthy ways.

When someone they care about rejects them, it’s harder for an ENTP who hasn’t worked on processing and accepting their feelings.

They might try to say how they feel because they want to find better ways to deal with the situation. However, this isn’t always easy for the ENTP because they prefer to focus on the facts rather than their feelings.

Final Thoughts

As logical people, ENTPs often try to figure out why things hurt so much by looking for logical reasons for them. They are trying to figure out how to make sense of what has happened and learn from it.

At first, the shock can be hard, and ENTPs may not show it, but they still feel emotions very deeply even if they don’t show it. They have trouble talking about how they feel in a way that other people can understand, so they sometimes try to do this on their own.

The best thing for an ENTP who doesn’t handle rejection well is to learn how to deal with an emotional reaction. Instead of ignoring or avoiding their feelings, they can take a step back and try to understand them more logically.

When they figure out why they feel rejected, it can help them talk about it more openly with their friends and family to get over it.
