Half a sentence, and it gets through. Someone who has the same idea at the same moment. But the same idea falls into the same hole.
ENFP and ENFP compatibility in brief (love, work, friendship)
ENFP × ENFP is the Identity relation, one of the sixteen. Half a sentence, and it gets through.
LoveInstead of imposing restrictions on each other, you are fundamentally apart.WorkStrong at planning. Put the practical side outside.Friends & conversationYou say the same thing at the same time.
Written as ENFP × ENFP it is the same pair. In 16Personalities terms, the Campaigner and the Campaigner.
Sometimes you reach the same conclusion at the same time. Values line up, neither imposes restrictions on the other, and nobody feels unfairly treated.
In terms of the mechanism, the "eye that opens possibilities" in ENFP's first position and the "ethics of people" in the second sit in exactly the same positions in the other. The view you are best at, the other is best at too. So no explanation is needed, and so no new perspective comes from the other either. The strong places overlap, and do not double.
In the old observations, in identity the same elements of both act in the same positions, and a complete, painless repulsion arises. Since no words are needed, there is also nothing the other can hand you. For these two, practical arrangements and care of the body are absent on both sides.
The observation calls it "an alliance of like minds", fundamentally apart. Gain comes before intimacy.
An alliance sharing tastes, fundamentally apart.
Outwitting each other
With no one to lead on the sensory side, you indulge in pleasure, and self-improvement, bodily and intellectual, stops. "A very dangerous game", the source says.
The empty places are the same too. The "practical logic" ENFP wants most is what the other wants most, and neither has it. The "sensing that arranges comfort", which each produces with a little effort, takes a little effort from both. What flows in silently between duals never flowed between these two in the first place.
Under agreement, the two are very far apart. Each tries to outwit the other by intuition and does not reveal themselves.
Given distance, it continues as an interesting alliance.

What has been recorded
SCENE 01The same proposal, simultaneously
A recorded case of a couple of the same type proposing a change to the terms of the relationship almost simultaneously, without prior consultation.
SCENE 02A dangerous game
With no one to lead on the sensory side, it becomes "a very dangerous game" of indulging in pleasure while self-improvement stops, the observation says.
SCENE 03Apart, under agreement
Agreeing on terms while trying to outwit each other by intuition, not revealing themselves, and fundamentally apart, the record says.
A pair on record
Charles Dickens (IEE) × Hans Christian Andersen (IEE)
Typing: both types agree across several published sources
In 1857 Andersen was invited to Dickens's house and stayed five weeks. Dickens left a note in the guest bedroom: "Hans Andersen slept in this room for five weeks, which seemed to the family ages", and never answered his letters again.
What matches: fundamentally apart even when the values seem to line up; arrangements and limits coming from no one.

For these two
How to meet ── Deep inside the same hobby
A relation needing no explanation. Specialist gatherings, fans of the same author, the same sport. The person it got through to at once: that is the one.
Approach ── Connect through what is interesting
The bond between these two is interest alone. Interesting talk over talk of daily life. It ends when the interest ends, so keep the interest alive.
A date ── The same thing, side by side
A day of doing the same hobby side by side. The care of daily life comes from neither, so eat out.
Gifts ── same type; for both, Comfort
Good food, something pleasant to the touch. The comfort ENFP does not arrange alone. What you would be glad to receive is exactly right for the other. But you easily give each other the same thing on the same day, so hand it over first, or shift it a little.
PROne thing for this relation
A relation that gets through from half a sentence, so experiences needing no explanation.
An alliance of like minds, fundamentally apart, the record says.
It is tiring, like looking at myself
A feature of identity.
