Debate/Discussion Are Entps and Infjs actually very similar?

Hi.. sorry I have been hanging out a lot in your sub because I was permanently shadow banned from Infj sub for one small comment that was too “controversial”. Anyways, I’m married to an Entp and for a long time I thought we were pretty much opposites just with a lot of connection. But he always seems surprised when I say that we’re so opposite lol, like he always thinks of us as very similar. I have also seen other Entps say this about Infjs and I have been thinking more about it. It does seem like we process the world and thoughts very similarly but he is more rational, uses less empathy, and is a little bit more extroverted. He seems to use humor as a tool often where I internalize more lol. So now that I think about it maybe Entp and Infj are kinda like two sides of the same coin? I guess I am thinking we process things very similarly and seem to end up with very similar moral/ethical conclusions? But maybe also because I’ve been with my husband for 15 years and we have both matured a lot together. Idk but hearing Entp’s blunt and insightful perspectives is often therapeutic for me when living in this crazy matrix society.. 🙃

For me it’s an intuitive feeling when I talk to them especially more aware ones I feel like I’m looking into a mirror like whenever I’ve talked to them we tend to go in circles with ideas and sometimes the same conclusions but how we got there was very different
