I'm a very sensitive harmony seeking introverted person, much better than most at creating a space for others to feel unconditionally accepted in, but when we discuss important subjects and i understand something that makes all the difference, for the future of your personal development or your physical health, perhaps to a lesser degree the wellbeing of others, my Te will step all over your ignorance, without hesitation and without backing down. This mix of being easygoing and strict is not a contradiction, because i differentiate exactly between anything that is subjective and anything that is objective. I accept the human subject in all of it's delusional imperfection, in so far as we are dreamers, feeling good about ourselves is all that matters, it's best to be patient, delusions will sort them selves out and make room for new delusions, that's just life. But in so far we are physical bodies or we treat each other in certain ways, there are objective criteria for what serves our wellbeing and what doesn't. I'm not cutting anyone some slack, because it's always about the principle. Someone who does a mistake once, does it a thousand times, if he doesn't understand that it's a mistake. If he does understand, fine, i'm a punk and also very forgiving. As an introvert, i'm exclusively concerned with the wellbeing of the subject. I can only care about how to be functional in buisness or politics or infrastructure, as long as i can oversee how it effects us subjectively. I'm the most happy, if i can just completely ignore wordy concerns, hang out in nature and of course in my weird ideas.
Am I NiTeFiSe or FiSeNiTe? It seems to depend on my mood. Could be wrong about my perceptive functions as well, but i'm fairly certain about Fi and Te.
Ti and Fe is very obviously different in how it goes about arguing or considering the importance of argument. Ti is private and concerned with how to achieve random shit that is important to you, learning or doing, if other people are stupid, fine, let them be stupid, less competition for you, Fe is situational and concerned with relationship, you want to get them to sleep with you, not teach them philosophy. But if you want them to look up to you, teach them something, it doesn't have to be true or important, or valuable, just impressive. So, lots of light banter, little serious discussion. ENTP take this pattern to the max, since they care little about the subject (the person).
compared to average self described INTJ on message boards, i am bit more concerned with respecting introverted feeling and making space for it.
for instance, if you had some stupid political views but you don't even vote and don't talk enough about politics to convince anyone of your views, then the average selfdiagnoned INTJ would probably still argue with you, whereas i might not. your views are not only wrong (thinking) they are also attachments (feelings) that provide you with a sense of identity. i will try, not to make people cry, by avoiding unnecessary challenge, but sometimes i fail. my consciousness of how attachment and motivation affect thought also has the opposite effect, on occasion. Some Te users will argue strictly about the logic, whereas i'm often tempted to address the feeling issue, behind the ignorance.
this could point to me being Fi dominant, but it could also simply be a difference in character, for instance INTJ who are raised by attached feeling types will have to learn how to be gentle while INTJ raised by ESTJ dad will have to learn how to be competitive. on the other hand, how is type created? inborn, or evoked by situational necessity.
