HI

[aLoo]

hello :D!

I am one tiny bit of this amazing Everything, a living form.. experiencing :) Nice to meet you all, who happen to share an interest!
I've already read some threads and stuff here before, and noticed that during the periods when I didn't think about or wasn't so interested in socionics, it was so much easier to just BE. And so I wanted to ask that what do you think about labelling? Haven't you felt that whenever you decide that now I'm this or that type, you set expectations on yourself, like how you should behave or think?
I'm super confused about my personality and probably think about it too much.

Hi.
No, for added expectations for myself.
Probably for overlay of socionic theory obstructing "experiencing" as much as providing insights.

Thanks for answering! I've typed myself SEI so far, descriptions can't be taken too seriously though. SEIs really seem too nice.. and I just recently decided to stop "faking" being lovely and kind with everyone
why did you like/ do you like my post?

Hello and welcome to the forum.


“Imagine you have a bottle of bleach. Take the label off and replace it with one that reads 'whiskey'. Now ask yourself "What is in the bottle?". Have the contents changed just because of the label on it? Of course not.”


My labels may change but my core contents remain pretty much the same. I try to limit my expectations, that way I am rarely disappointed. In my experience, personality continues to develop over time and part of the excitement I feel, exploring these theories, are due to the moments of self-revelation.
