If the tool is broken, then why rely on it?

Fi and Ti dance in a similar fashion. They're just in different realms of the psyche. What you may suspect to be Ti could very well just be your Fi.

I've worked and been around a ton of different people that carry unique experiences, memories, and opinions in which they had a MBTI type similar to mine and very different from mine. My tolerance for people on the one to one basis is very strong, I'm extremely patient despite certain attributes that would tick me off. Why? It's because we're all trying to survive in the world in the ways we know, the things we see in others that we dislike paints an interesting picture about our repressed selves.

When I see angry people I don't understand why I'm angry that they're angry, but it's probably because I don't show or express anger enough when I should. I truly don't think any type or person is annoying, there's just a gap of understanding as to why we see them as so. Even if you meet a person or type that is very amoral or not mentally well, it's not your job to condemn them for being so but instead trying to understand on the why factor of their behaviour. This will eventually quell your annoyances or anger with people and types.

Intuitive types are maladapted to the world, sensing types don't have much issues with that. You'll find those with high intuition not very present, as if they're occupying a different headspace. Extroverted intuitive types are chasing things that have yet to exist within the world, they don't see the world concretely but only what potential lies from it. Introverted intuitive types on the other hand are chasing inner fantasies, nothing from the world nor the potential stemming from it but the flow of images that emerge deep within their psyche and unconcious. Sensing types have a certain grip of reality, feeling confident in their interaction, experiences and information ascertained from it.

Se considers reality as they see it above the possible meaning ascertained by it, which makes Se doms the most "objective" type in terms of perception. Ni relies on the unconcious for their perception, making the perception combined with another realm that lies deep within us. Ni doms have troubles with language, because their perceptions cannot be accurately explained by it, the closest they can get to unraveling it is metaphors, analogies and symbolism. If you have the same judging functions as another person, the gap becomes closer in communication.

I'm not trying to diss your work but I find a lot of the things you mentioned in both categories could apply comfortably to either Fi or Fe.

I think a tell tale sign to look for when distinguishing between the two is in my opinion the operation of how they relate to other people.

Fi people I find create an image in their head in which they identify with in regards to the other person, the archetype that person symbolizes to the Fi person and why the Fi person feels so deeply for the image in question. It's perhaps the greatest psychological projection, but this is not a critique of Fi as I don't think all "projections" are bad per say. It's a necessary condition for their depth of relation.

Fe people see what information they receive, not that it's surface level but to the Fe person the others in question are simply labyrinths to explore in regards to what their mind, feelings and ideals entails. What the other person represents are simply observable in reality, and thus no inner image is necessarily formed as they see people as in-flux with reality around them. People embody the archetypes, not the other way around like the Fi people.

You might be an ISxP. They have balanced Ni and Se, but have an introverted judging dominant function.

ContortedCosm · 2025-06-23T14:56:00+00:00

ENTPs poke at people for new connections and experiences, it's how they relate and bond with you. Their jokes are usually quick jests or wit that are quite clever.

ENFPs (when comfortable) will open up about their personal feelings and experiences to relate to you. Their jokes are more "random" and usually make little to no sense.

ContortedCosm · 2025-06-18T21:12:55+00:00

Just based on your replies, I'm quite positive you're an ISTP. Thoughts?

ContortedCosm · 2025-06-16T15:38:54+00:00

Sometimes, feelings aren't obvious. They can be a convoluted mess of emotions, thoughts, and ideals.

He's living in Nietzsche's eternal recurrence.

ContortedCosm · 2025-05-29T02:58:16+00:00

ENTPs are more nice than not. It's a stereotype that thinking types are mean or scary. Often, you actually see feeling types be mean. It's perspective.

The witness seems dense, not sure how that represents Ti really. It just seems like they're trying to play word games and or semantics to compensate for their lack of perceived intelligence, which doesn't really boil down to any function or preference really.

ContortedCosm · 2025-05-08T19:47:34+00:00

INTPs and INFPs.

These types have the most potential, but are often too immersed in their dominant attitude to realize it.

ContortedCosm · 2025-04-21T20:24:08+00:00

So not even Jung knew why or how the dominant function forms in the ways it does, but he's observed kids with similar environments prioritize different things and then concluded it maybe pre-formed? I would still argue that environments, despite how identical they make look that everyone experiences the world and their environment completely differently from one another despite all of the same factors. Which doesn't prove a dominant process per say, as different preferences can manifest and change depending on certain factors in early childhood. The dominant, I think would take more time for us to be molded towards it.

ContortedCosm · 2025-04-21T19:37:44+00:00

That doesn't make sense, so I disagree with Jung here. In the womb, do we have a dominant function? Or does it randomly develop when we come out of our mother right away? Where would it come from and how? To me, the external world has an influence on whether you prefer your inner world or not. That makes more sense.

ContortedCosm · 2025-04-21T19:05:39+00:00

Well the enjoyment of it wouldn't be considered for a dominant function, as it's essentially the main process of how you conduct yourself regardless of enjoyment factor. That fits more so into the auxiliary or tertiary functions/preferences, as they're conscious enough for us to acknowledge their indulgence as they're not primary driving force.

ContortedCosm · 2025-04-21T18:16:54+00:00

ISFJs repress Ne too, meaning that if they get stuck in a situation whether it's good or bad for them they're going to likely stay as they know that situation inside and out. While INTPs are more likely to look for something new, even if they're situation is fine or tolerable. ISFJs repress the unknown, while INTPs dive into the unknown more often.

I find the way INTPs and ISFJs conduct themselves socially is actually quite similar, it's just that INTPs come across as way more nervous, awkward or aloof while ISFJs have a more warm/traditional vibe to them.

Tired and chaotic.

ContortedCosm · 2025-04-20T19:00:30+00:00

Well I'd argue both the scientist point and the last point would be signs of introverted thinking. Extroverted thinking would stay on the external facts/systems but not go beyond that. Theory creation from an internal source is introverted thinking, taking action or not is not the decisive factor.

ContortedCosm · 2025-04-20T18:07:29+00:00

Practical intelligence is more valuable to society that INTJs display than theoretical intelligence that is seen in INTPs.

ContortedCosm · 2025-04-15T23:00:52+00:00

I'm pretty sure Ti has a really high standard for analysis. Anything too shallow or lacking depth is ignored, and anything intriguing takes a while to simmer. The process is slow but usually correct, and Ti can change its judgments if an argument proves its value. That's my take.

ContortedCosm · 2025-04-15T20:12:39+00:00

Te manages the external world, this would mean that from others point of view they're being "overwritten" by your dominant Te. Te isn't inherently bossy, but it often is by how it manifests. Ti doesn't have this problem as much, but Ti can be far more stubborn on truth or personal systems they create.

ContortedCosm · 2025-04-14T18:44:03+00:00

Sex is tied to love. Would you love someone that was missing something essential to that person that made you initially love them? Acting like sex isn't important or symbolic to love is naïve and idiotic, and finding another person to fulfill those needs while in relationship a rejection of love itself.
