    Default What is the least stereotypical thing you do as a member of your type?

    I spend way more time in the gym than my beta ST friends.

    I can't think of anything. I'm very stereotypical IEI.

    I was pretty much set by the time a lot of people are just getting started. I handle family finances. I do my own and other family members taxes. What good is foresight if you don't use it...

    *in all fairness I burned though a small fortune too but I didn't worry about it at the time. I knew I would get it back. Plus there was some luck involved.

    I might look to some people like a person who is just escaped from mental asylum. Apparently I'm among the most sane out there.

    I tend to see trough everything having birds eye view.

    I spend a lot of time in contemplation. And I am pretty sensitive and "nice". I typed as an NF type in MBTI for 8 years.

    I don't enforce rules on others or stick with a set routine. I'm very laid back, non-judgmental (as far as being judging-dom, I'm more like a perceiver). I suck at budgeting and anything to do with red tape and bureaucracy. At heart I am sensitive and desire to be protected and cherished.

    Well, IEEs are known as the shyest of the extraverts. However, compared to the average IEE, I am definitely a lot more quiet. I figured that was due to being sp/sx, which is a rare instinctual stacking for IEEs.

    I resent the concept of being a special snowflake to the extent that I will be a special snowflake about it. I get immensely frustrated with people who think they're somehow apart from humanity.

    When it comes to work I'm a hardass busybody. I've frequently taken on the role of the secretary/person who keeps track of all the details and whatnot because nobody else bothers to step up to the plate or they suck at it. I heavily resent being called lazy or ineffective (which is actually a large tip-off to my PoLR but is a non-stereotypical manifestation of it) and take a lot of pride in getting things done. I'm ambitious and I have a fairly good sketch of what I want to accomplish over the next several years.

    I'm not into black eyeliner and raven feathers. I like looking bright and sprightly.

    I exercise

    I only cry sometimes

    I I I I don't know honestly so much of what I am and do fits so into the box it's hard to imagine. Well lately I've been better at making friends with Beta NF types and letting them guide my dressing. I called up my IEI friend from college and asked her what was appropriate to wear under a white dress and she told me. Of course she said it was killing her and she laughed so hard because I should know these things right? Ughhh I make friends more easily and venture outside my nest more
    -
    Dual type (as per tcaudilllg)
    Enneagram 5 (wings either 4 or 6)?


    I'm constantly looking to align the real with the ideal.I've been more oriented toward being overly idealistic by expecting the real to match the ideal. My thinking side is dominent. The result is that sometimes I can be overly impersonal or self-centered in my approach, not being understanding of others in the process and simply thinking "you should do this" or "everyone should follor this rule"..."regardless of how they feel or where they're coming from"which just isn't a good attitude to have. It is a way, though, to give oneself an artificial sense of self-justification. LSE

    I don't consider (my, other's) strong feelings the absolute be-all and end-all. I can have a downright cold and cynical view of some events (see also: black humour.)

    It's funny you'd say that, because while I'd say the same about myself, no one ever accepted any Feeler typing for me in MBTI communities. I typed ENFP for a while before getting the actual MBTI test, and at least once a day I'd get PMs with people challenging my title and telling me to change it to ENTP.

    Actually, I'd say black humour is a pretty common feature in EIEs. Ditto about cynicism, and healthy Ethical types are capable of making executive decisions.

    I'll say my own: I'm really good at dancing> For some illogical and idiotic reason I see the idea that being PoLR would make bad dancers out of ENxjs being paraded on the forum, but that's most definitely not true.

    Exhibit A- LIE:


    > Solo girl

    Exhibit B- EIE:

    > Short guy in cameo tank top
    > Short guy in the black blazer


    Oh, and I'm naturally intimidating, so my displays are never "pathetic"

    @LuckyOne: Fine fine, but in that case I'll note that I'm also noticeably good at dancing and occasionally socially intimidating without particularly trying, so there goes that stereotype. Could be the gut centre enneatype, or sp-second.

    Besides, healthy EIEs don't exist, it is known.

    In MBTI terms, I'm more E, more T, and more J than I'm supposed to be, as an EII. I initiate conversations with strangers easily, constantly push my friends to hang out in relatively large groups, take tons of initiative in my career, and love planning things in excruciating detail/dislike being spontaneous. My job involves a lot of logic, math, and statistics, and I consider myself to be hardcore rational (though my interpretation of rationality does not involve ignoring emotions--I think it's irrational to ignore your own emotions once they exist, and it's irrational to ignore others' emotions if you care about their utility, or even if you just want to accurately predict the effect of your actions).

    I also spend a lot of time in the gym, powerlifting, which is probably doubly unstereotypical for me since I am female.

    I love and excel at public speaking. I love being the center of attention.

    I really can't stand making people feel sad. If there was anything I could do to make them better, even if it would be something I wouldn't want to do, I would feel guilty about not doing something/doing it (even if I know that if I try doing something I really don't want to with what feels like emotional burden/manipulation from other, I would just end up mentally and physically being unable to do it- I simply can't. It feels too fake.) and get pissed at both the person who was sad and made me feel such a mess of anger and everything not nice and also at myself for allowing it. I wouldn't let anyone cross certain lines where my core principles lies, but I still can feel guilty about not letting them cross it despite being full aware that it is illogical.

    I have had intercourse! More than once!
    Important to note! People who share "indentical" socionics TIMs won't necessarily appear to be very similar, since they have have different backgrounds, experiences, capabilities, genetics, as well as different types in other typological systems (enneagram, instinctual variants, etc.) all of which also have a sway on compatibility and identification. Thus, Socionics type "identicals" won't necessarily be identical i.e. highly similar to each other, and not all people of "dual" types will seem interesting, attractive and appealing to each other.

    I love attention. I love being the best even though I really *humbly* do it, and resent others when they outshine me or get more attention.
