    When I have to cry, I do not know how to shut it off no matter how much I may desire to postpone the tears - especially if it seems socially inconvenient. It's hard hiding it sometimes.

    I like to cry in the shower personally or in the rain. Water being related to emotion, symbolically, can be used to help release built up emotion.

    I can't cry in the rain, I used to do it in the shower.

    I wouldn't mind if it rained every day. Not for crying in, just because it is by far my favorite weather. Too bad some of the wettest countries have too many insects.

    Stoic is a great word to describe EIIs.

    I am the opposite. lol I will listen to the saddest music to intensify the feelings before releasing them. I use music for many things besides that though. Music is life giving energy to me.

    I can also hold back tears in front of people so I can tough it through a situation. I am not that weepy tbh. My ESE sister is the weepiest in my family. I have grown a thicker skin through life lessons.

    I didn't reject the core theory so you are very wrong there.

    I don't type these people you do. I have no idea if most of them are EII or not. I just think you try to type based on "intuitive impressions" when that is clearly your weakest areas, according to "core theory" but it doesn't stop you from trying.

    I don't think you translated my post correctly either from your response.

    9. The Introverted Intuitive Type

    The peculiar nature of introverted intuition, when given the priority, also produces a peculiar type of man, viz. the mystical dreamer and seer on the one hand, or the fantastical crank and artist on the other. The latter might be regarded as the normal case, since there is a general tendency of this type to confine himself to the perceptive character of intuition. As a rule, the intuitive stops at perception; perception is his principal problem, and -- in the case of a productive artist-the shaping of perception. But the crank contents himself with the intuition by which he himself is shaped and determined. Intensification of intuition naturally often results in an extraordinary aloofness of the individual from tangible reality; he may even become a complete enigma to his own immediate circle. [p. 509]


    If an artist, he reveals extraordinary, remote things in his art, which in iridescent profusion embrace both the significant and the banal, the lovely and the grotesque, the whimsical and the sublime. If not an artist, he is frequently an unappreciated genius, a great man 'gone wrong', a sort of wise simpleton, a figure for 'psychological' novels.


    Although it is not altogether in the line of the introverted intuitive type to make of perception a moral problem, since a certain reinforcement of the rational functions is required for this, yet even a relatively slight differentiation of judgment would suffice to transfer intuitive perception from the purely æsthetic into the moral sphere. A variety of this type is thus produced which differs essentially from its æsthetic form, although none the less characteristic of the introverted intuitive. The moral problem comes into being when the intuitive tries to relate himself to his vision, when he is no longer satisfied with mere perception and its æsthetic shaping and estimation, but confronts the question: What does this mean for me and for the world? What emerges from this vision in the way of a duty or task, either for me or for the world? The pure intuitive who represses judgment or possesses it only under the spell of perception never meets this question fundamentally, since his only problem is the How of perception. He, therefore, finds the moral problem unintelligible, even absurd, and as far as possible forbids his thoughts to dwell upon the disconcerting vision. It is different with the morally orientated intuitive. He concerns himself with the meaning of his vision; he troubles less about its further æsthetic possibilities than about the possible moral effects which emerge from its intrinsic significance. His judgment allows him to discern, though often only darkly, that he, as a man and as a totality, is in some way inter-related with his vision, that [p. 510] it is something which cannot just be perceived but which also would fain become the life of the subject. Through this realization he feels bound to transform his vision into his own life. But, since he tends to rely exclusively upon his vision, his moral effort becomes one-sided; he makes himself and his life symbolic, adapted, it is true, to the inner and eternal meaning of events, but unadapted to the actual present-day reality. Therewith he also deprives himself of any influence upon it, because he remains unintelligible. His language is not that which is commonly spoken -- it becomes too subjective. His argument lacks convincing reason. He can only confess or pronounce. His is the 'voice of one crying in the wilderness'.


    The introverted intuitive's chief repression falls upon the sensation of the object. His unconscious is characterized by this fact. For we find in his unconscious a compensatory extraverted sensation function of an archaic character. The unconscious personality may, therefore, best be described as an extraverted sensation-type of a rather low and primitive order. Impulsiveness and unrestraint are the characters of this sensation, combined with an extraordinary dependence upon the sense impression. This latter quality is a compensation to the thin upper air of the conscious attitude, giving it a certain weight, so that complete 'sublimation' is prevented. But if, through a forced exaggeration of the conscious attitude, a complete subordination to the inner perception should develop, the unconscious becomes an opposition, giving rise to compulsive sensations whose excessive dependence upon the object is in frank conflict with the conscious attitude. The form of neurosis is a compulsion-neurosis, exhibiting symptoms that are partly hypochondriacal manifestations, partly hypersensibility of the sense organs and partly compulsive ties to definite persons or other objects. [p. 511]

    Edit: We don't need to argue over semantics but many of your youtube IEIs have not looked "dreamy" at all in the old IEI thread and I haven't seen your recent additions. I do not mind being told I look dreamy by some but when it sounds devaluing then I kind of do.

    @Aylen
    lesser emotions -> lesse mistakes. partly similar situation like with guessings

    it's common to disagree of how to apply the same theory. or to use additional bs alike Reinin's to argument other point
    but above you expressed the disagreement with basics of the theory. by this approach the chance of typing mistakes is significantly higher than in average

    they may impact the behavior, but not a type itself. the reason you need normal typing data to be sure, mostly - IRL or video interview

    generally, even with the lack of normal data it may be clearly seen (having the needed typing skills) when some types mb rejected due to many contradictions to them. alike in your case - against you being EII there is lot of factors
    the main problem of harder cases - there is no a single clear type, but several of them are seen as possible. this is solved by geting of more data, than average. there are no principle problem, except typing skills of a typer and the lack of needed data
    this relates to all people, including to ones having the factors you've listed

    resume for all harder than average cases:
    additional data + good typing skills

    your videointerview is important to be sure between some types. but it's clear that you do not fit to EII due to many factors
    and you seems tried my IR test and saw it yourself - higher friendly sympathy to beta-gamma men. and to P types

    https://phys.org/news/2014-12-universe-dimensions.html


    In the ninth dimension, we can compare all the possible universe histories, starting with all the different possible laws of physics and initial conditions. In the tenth and final dimension, we arrive at the point in which everything possible and imaginable is covered. Beyond this, nothing can be imagined by us lowly mortals, which makes it the natural limitation of what we can conceive in terms of dimensions.


    The existence of these additional six dimensions which we cannot perceive is necessary for String Theory in order for there to be consistency in nature. The fact that we can perceive only four dimensions of space can be explained by one of two mechanisms: either the extra dimensions are compactified on a very small scale, or else our world may live on a 3-dimensional submanifold corresponding to a brane, on which all known particles besides gravity would be restricted (aka. brane theory).

    Ok, IEI's have actualised string theory. Although string theory is hypothetical construction or at least so we think. Just as Jung wrote: Ni does not share it's secrects.

    Maritsa, you never stop amazing me. All the young mothers I know would kill to have a minute to themselves, but you, despite the baby, seem to have lots of time left to spend on this forum. Now it's clear to us why: thanks to your LSE husband, you work at amazing levels of efficiency and effectiveness.

    Leaves me one question: why is this thread titled "IEI and EII"?

    I don’t think that IEI are like me
    -
    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

    Yesenin very easily knows how to tune in to the interlocutor, to feel him. And if for some reason he doesn’t make contact, it always alarming him: Yesenin starts thinking about why he is “not allowed” for such reasons, perhaps this person is not as simple as it seems, or may even be dangerous (his “negative intuition of time "- the desire to escape from danger).

    Exposing the emotional evaluation of the ethical qualities of others, Yesenin does it according to his mood: being in a good mood, he admires those who like him, in a bad mood - he “washes the bones” with everything else. In a state of irritation, he has an overwhelming desire to say face-to-face the most absurd and unpleasant things.




    Periodically, Yesenin may manifest himself as an instigator of conflicts — the method he needs to ascertain his own position in the system of relations.




    The whole diverse range of feelings and moods of Yesenin is not only his “artistic palette”, it is also his “toolkit” and his “armory”.




    Yesenin is confident in his charisma, in his attractiveness, in the arsenal of his very cute and pretty masks, which he uses superbly. And these are not external masks: any of them is, as it were, a peculiar state of his soul.


    Few people know how to slander and ruthlessly scold, building up the power of their emotional impact, like Yesenin. This is someone who can cauterize with a word, like a hot iron, - prints, it will not seem a little! Yesenin is one of the most evil-speaking types of socion!




    Oh, if it does, so surely the partner will be able to better assimilate the lesson, make a conclusion from his own mistakes and try to correct them as soon as possible, so as not to repeat in the future.




    Again, this painful ethical manipulation is psychologically designed only for Zhukov, for his inert emotionality and somewhat awkward ethics. But the fact that for Zhukov is no more than an effective way of emotional activation, for others (especially emotionally vulnerable personality types), it can turn into a completely unbearable torture.


    She may exaggerate a bit but I understand what she is saying even if I have to google translate.
    Is that Enneagram 4 emotional volatility? Or perhaps just emotional volatility? I knew an LII 5w4 girl with very bad social skills that used to be like that - knew her from the forums INTPforum, she struggled between choosing whether she was EII IEI or LII (however she was informationally LII).

    Anyway I always ignore and suppress my emotions until they become untenable and I then flip with rage. I'm a 5w6 sx (but the sx is at odds with my fiveness so I thought I was SP-SX by mistake)

    My IEI mom would be "EII" given that she did exactly what you say you do there. Only temperamental differences would be most distinguishable. IPs aren't lazy contrary to perception but we are slow with volatile but effective approach to doing things.

    The temperamental differences between you and my mom would be this:

    She'd only wake up/work like a workaholic, when she has urgency - either internal (wants desires goals) or external (threats, important obligations). Without urgency all actions are based on how she feels, how stimulated by the environment she is or not. The house was always maintained and my baby bother was taken care of. As for bargains, she had her strategy which she stuck to, having cultivated it for years. Anyway my folks had autonomous cooperation - they did things individually and everything would come full circle.

    I suspect some of her writings are enneagram and instinct influenced based on people she interacted with and typed herself. She is a harsh judge of character in general. She actually takes it easy on EII which is funny given her other profiles. Her EII descriptions sound more like E9s and her IEI descriptions sound more like E4s.

    Keep telling yourself that... Your typing lists contains several errors considering you have some of the same people typed into different quadras and/or different enneagram types or instincts because you failed to catch the name change or that they were using a completely new profile. You are closed off to hearing this no matter who tells you. You live in your own fantasy world where you apparently have enough time to index 2500+ videos and images of "types", including fictional ones. Fiction rules you. You are not much of an observer. For all you know I am also on your list more than once, you wouldn't notice it though not in a million years.

    "Despite all the psychology we think we possess today, the psyche is still infinitely more obscure to us than the visible surface of the body. The psyche is still a foreign, almost unexplored country of which we have only indirect knowledge; it is mediated by conscious functions that are subject to almost endless possibilities of deception." --Jung

    “My typology is . . . not in any sense to stick labels on people at first sight. It is not a physiognomy and not an anthropological system, but a critical psychology dealing with the organization and delimitation of psychic processes that can be shown to be typical.”​ —C.G. Jung

    The passive aggressiveness is sheer nonsense, but the judgmental part is quite true. I feel obsolutely no need to apologize for that, in fact, I'm quite proud of it.

    Idk but some IEIs seem to be into law of attraction, yoga, horoscopes zodiac signs, some into charms and other things I find really weird. I'm always thinking there must be something about them that makes them into that stuff and something about me that makes me not into that stuff.

    I also think EII probably dress way more toned down them IEI. And some of the things Ni-Ti is into is just really weird specific and sometimes really technical things.

    One I knew was really into skulls, but specifically not baby skulls. And Vespidae, she had to refer to wasps as vespidae.

    And I think Ni-Fe can see people's intentions and they are more likely to voice them out. While Fi-Ne might keep more quiet about it. Like I've seen 2 IEIs actually voice out someone's intentions out loud to them, and I just cringe at them "unearthing" this person's "secrets" lol.

    I've also seen really extraverted IEI and introveted IEI. I think their Fe helps them get along with folks more than EII.

    woah no need to take it personal.

    Its okay cause all the Fi types are like this to a degree: they all reserve the right for ethical auditing. The duals activators, so on, need it.

    Your's had that special autocratic flavour as well: "all Moms should be..."

    From my perspective, EII tend to be more serious, value effort, more diligent(or trying to be), hates every way of forcing (to do smth, or force another). They also usually are very friendly.
    On the other hand, IEI are just more lazy(lacking the will to do anything), don't like to rush things, sometimes can seem a little rude or immoral. Some of them friendly, some of them can be sometimes cold-ish (or this is just my experience with people).

    Most of the descriptive words used point more to enneagram than socionics. Enneagram - motivations of behaviour which leads to how they behave.

    I'm going to maximise the stereotype here(how ironic) , IEI are the most logical of ethical types.

    I think IEI are more of a romantic and poet more than EII are. After all, IEI are called "Lyricist" for a reason. To be poetic is valued Ni and to be romantic is valued Fe. Romanticism is an expression of feelings and thus Fe. IEI could be visionaries but they could also be poets.

    EII tend to be talk more about their personal relationships and analyzing their personal character (Valued Fi) than their expression of feelings. EII also prefer to their feelings to themselves for the purpose of good relationships (Fe ignoring and Fi lead). If anything, EII tend to have a dry style of communication, which is why Delta ST who dislike expression of emotions get along with them so well.

    EII - can communicate easily with large groups of people, aim for congeniality and accepting everyone who shows goodwill. Can have cynical outlook towards the future, but doesn't dwell on it.

    IEI - communicates better with small groups of people, likes to give a spark of joy in intimate settings. Easily rekindles hope in a brighter future.

    EIIs main interest is to keep and create harmony in relationships. They are tolerant and quickly dispose themselves to give concessions to keep peace. Close harmonious relationships are their main focus and they use Ne to anticipate and avoid possible complications to their relations. They are optimistic and think that every person deserves an opportunity and almost all interpersonal problems can be solved improving ourselves and keeping a positive attitude.

    IEI is a dreamer and is romantic. Wants to live at his/her own pace and spend his/her time in leisure, pleasant and interesting activities avoiding as much as possible disturbances from others and the outside. They move at their own pace and in the process they can slow down others (even at work). They enjoy and express beauty and emotions especially in social and arts field, but also can provide pleasant mood through emotional manifestations and provide pleasure in society through showing personal interest in others and through bright imaginations and fantasies of abstract topics.


    Dostoevsky seeks to create the most harmonious, most humane, in his view, form of ethical relations, excluding the suppression of one person by another, eliminating conflicts, discord, misunderstanding, mutual distrust.

    His whole life is a search for means and opportunities to realize his idealistic system of relations, and his own behavior should serve as a positive ethical example.

    The consequence of such an installation are characteristic of people of this type increased self-analysis, self-criticism and constant ethical self-improvement.

    Dostoevsky's high demands on himself are often combined with tolerance for others' weaknesses. In such cases, the relationship crisis he “corrects” at the expense of his own concessions, considering, however, that these concessions must be seen by a partner in time and properly assessed. Essentially speaking, his concession is a kind of ethical method by which he intends to convince the partner of his original benevolence and readiness for compromise.

    Dostoevsky is very sensitive to someone else's misfortune, prone to empathy. Has the ability to literally dissolve in other people's problems, especially if it is the problems of people close to him.

    Dostoevsky’s actions are largely determined by his personal likes and dislikes.That is, if he sympathizes with a person, he tries to ignore the fact of his guilt.

    Dostoevsky builds his relationships with people at close range, which sometimes especially has others around him, but sometimes may seem obtrusive.

    Dostoevsky in any situation tries to be extremely polite and restrained, no matter how much effort it may cost him. He is doing everything possible (and impossible) to not offend anyone, God forbid! do not make enemies.

    It is very difficult for Dostoevsky to realize his "conflict-free" system of relations in our controversial world. Properties that help and encourage him in this noble field are natural optimism and a strong and flexible intuition of possibilities.

    In each person, Dostoevsky tries to see and identify a positive ethical potential - a quality thanks to which representatives of this type work wonderfully in the field of pedagogy. (Dostoevsky does not understand and does not accept such a phrase as "spoiled children." In his understanding, there are no such "spoiled children" that would not be inspired by a positive ethical example.)

    Dostoevsky’s ethical-intuitive influence is based on the ability to discern and develop the best that is in the human soul. Of course, this development requires time and mental energy. It requires patience. Therefore, according to Dostoevsky, the teacher must constantly work on himself, perfecting his ethics, cultivating a sense of duty and responsibility for the fate of the person entrusted to him.

    And the goal of his foresight is to anticipate possible complications of relations and to exclude them in advance.
    Romantic and dreamer. Time for him is plastic creative material that can be “squeezed” or “stretched” at will. Yesenin can stop the moment, because it is "beautiful", and admire it as much as he wants.

    Yesenin appreciates his time, especially the time of his pleasant leisure and pleasures. If the time spent is not pleasant and interesting enough - this is not just lost time, it is, in his understanding, some annoying mistake that should be avoided as far as possible.

    He likes to live on a free schedule, it is more convenient for him to manage time spontaneously. He is very worried if his pleasant plans for someone else’s fault are not realized the way he would like. If, God forbid, he was not invited to a holiday or in some way limited his "fun" - this is a reason for serious irritation. But the collapse of global positive plans is even more painful for them: for example, when his calculations collapse and his hopes fail, when a close and desired goal turns out to be suddenly far and unattainable, when someone refuses his support, he shoots him out of his -Under his “wing” - all this is for Yesenin the hardest blows of fate, with which he cannot reconcile in any way and which he will try to prevent with all his might (and in most cases - does not allow).

    Despite the seemingly detached, dreamy attitude to life, Yesenin is able to quite realistically assess the phenomena surrounding him.

    He knows how to anticipate an undesirable development of events, knows how to take a blow away from himself, knows how to “freeze” this strike in time and thereby muffle its power. It is able to delay the time for a decisive explanation and the time of the looming conflict. He will change tactics and try to take the situation into his own hands so that he can prepare himself for the unpleasant outcome for himself (for example, he will find another wing or other source of income).

    Yesenin sets the pace of development of relations in accordance with their own interests and their own long-term plans.

    Yesenin "conducts" time — both his own and others. He subordinates everyone to his own pace - he draws everyone into his life rhythm. If he personally has nowhere to hurry, then his interlocutor will not hurry anywhere: he will simply get stuck in the slow pace imposed on him. Yesenin is like that fairy from a fairy tale that can transform the life of any person into a "sweet dream", and, having "woken up", a person can feel thrown back in time, with the consciousness of irreversibly missed opportunities. Yesenin is a good partner only to those who are constantly moving forward towards their intended goals - such is his dual Zhukov.

    Yesenin's time always belongs only to him. Even working time Yesenin considers his own:he gets distracted by some personal matters or conversations. Yesenin appreciates his time very much, and even if he gives it to others, he sees it as a generous gift for his part, for which he should be grateful.

    Yesenin considers the ability to create a pleasant mood and give pleasure to his society.

    To all the observed phenomena, Yesenin constantly exhibits an extremely lively emotional attitude.

    Other people sees it as an extraordinary quality of him. It seems unthinkable to push away a person who so sincerely admires all that you have a good one who sees so much interesting in you that you have never imagined before.

    And how he can listen, looking enthusiastically into the interlocutor's eyes, so that it seems that he has never heard anything wiser in his life!

    And his sweet, kind, modest smile is like a "sunbeam" on his face. Sometimes dreamy, sometimes crafty, but so benevolent, optimistic and encouraging.

    Esenin's mood is also like a sunbeam: friendly, compliant, affectionate, carefree, cheerful, in a romantic, dreamy state of mind, he fantasizes on some abstract topic, and the whole world seems colored with bright colors, filled with sunlight and "sparkles with dew ". Blissful, like a sweet dope condition, a fabulous dream that you want to extend to infinity, but which will end precisely when Yesenin sees fit to tear it off.

    Yesenin does not like it when some external stimulus destroys his peaceful-air harmony — at such a moment he feels like an artist of a ruined creation.

    (It would be wrong to perceive Yesenin as a kind of dope grass designed to fool the head or put down the vigilance of all the people around him. Not at all! His first psychological task is to maximally relax his dual Zhukov, forever tense and prone to overload.)

    In the case when the mood of "serene rest" created by him is not evaluated and is not properly rewarded, Yesenin considers it necessary to "draw a different picture" in other emotional colors, but no less bright and saturated. (The mood for Yesenin is also a way to manipulate the environment.)

    Few people know how to slander and ruthlessly make trouble, increasing the power of their emotional impact, like Yesenin. This is someone who can cauterize the word like a red-hot iron, - prints, it will not seem a little! Yesenin is one of the most evil-speaking types of socion!
    Oh, if it does, so surely the partner will be able to better assimilate the lesson, make a conclusion from his own mistakes and try to correct them as soon as possible so as not to repeat in the future.

    Again, this painful ethical manipulation is psychologically designed only for Zhukov, for his inert emotionality and somewhat awkward ethics. But the fact that Zhukov is nothing more than an effective way of emotional activation for others (especially emotionally vulnerable types of personality) can turn into a completely unbearable torture.

    In communication, Yesenin takes a rather close psychological distance, as a result of which he may feel too vulnerable and too dependent on his partner. Therefore, the Yesenin scandals are no more than a necessary measure, the goal of which, on the one hand, is to adjust the psychological distance, on the other, to draw attention to their problems and express their demands in the form in which they are most conveniently perceived by his dual. Yesenin is not able to talk about his problems in a “businesslike manner” —it is, in his understanding, too rude and tactless: after all, he is oriented towards vulnerable emotionality and Zhukov’s demonstrative pragmatism. Therefore, he believes that he is quite subtle and tactful half-hint so that his partner can understand him correctly and offer his services himself.

    Yesenin feels very embarrassed when the emotional tone set by him does not find the proper response and support from those around him: Yesenin begins a sudden mood swings, which also result in a scandal.

    Exposing the emotional evaluation of the ethical qualities of others, Yesenin does it according to his mood: being in a good mood, he admires those who like him, in a bad mood - he “washes the bones” with everything else. In a state of irritation, he has an overwhelming desire to say face-to-face the most absurd and unpleasant things.

    Periodically, Yesenin may manifest himself as an instigator of conflicts — the method he needs to ascertain his own position in the system of relations.

    The whole diverse range of feelings and moods of Yesenin is not only his “artistic palette”, it is also his “toolkit” and his “armory”.

    Yesenin is confident in his charisma, in his attractiveness, in the arsenal of his very cute and pretty masks, which he uses superbly. And these are not external masks: any of them is like a peculiar state of his soul.

    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

    IMO easiest way to differinate is to look at their duals.

    EII's dual is LSE Te person which tends to be like a Christian Cowboy, or a conservative courtroom judges that puts unhealthy SLEs in prison. Or asshole douche businessman.

    IEI's dual is SLE which is either your typical prison thug or your nice boring good-natured family man person that likes to go to Taco Bell at 2 AM after working their job in construction. Not a Christian Cowboy or Te-valuing Judge.

    Do you want to have sex with person A or person B?

    Both IEI and EII are going to be pretty moral & ethical, goody two-shoes, and overly sensitive wimps (lol!) so you can't really go by that. str8 male EII & IEI can both even be kinda rowdy and drug-dealer-ish at times. EII tends to plan things better I think, IEI is a bit better at being 'go with the flow' and being adaptive. EII is better at rational thinking, IEI is better with irrational.

    I think both SLE and LSE males 'when unhealthy' can be kind of like drunken assholes that just say mean things to everybody all the time. And just tries to hatefully troll everybody they come across.

    You won't find out if they have demonstrative Se vs ego Se until they sober up and get a bit healthier first.

    Just like both IEI and EII can fantasize about something stupidly and whimsically and you can't really get to know them until they get out of the Alice in Wonderland rabbit hole.

    EII is Serious and IEI is Merry. Serious-energy annoys IEIs and Merry-energy annoys EIIs. (Te is deathly serious and EIIs dual-seek it, it's not their PoLR)

    I think quite often EIIs are bad at understanding when SLEs are 'just joshin' them' and get really seriously hurt over a lot of what they do, due to Se-PoLR. IEI will understand 'Merry-type' humor and jokes a lot better.

    Both types will probably prefer other people to be 'sincere' though because NFs are humanitarians. And even though IEIs are Fe valuing- we supervise ESEs so being too over the top 4D Fe can often annoy IEI as well. Also doesn't mean EIIs are completely grim and without humor- but they do prefer Serious energy and are Deltas.

    unhealthy eiis can be quite neurotic. they could even look iike a warped eie, due to strong emotions. but in public they tend to be quiet even if they are unhealthy, and come off as slis but maybe a bit more friendly.soft. obvs i think eiis and slis most come off similar because even esis can just be outspoken in some way that eiis are not. since i knew an sli guy he was cold in groups and reserved but sweet.

    Fe sentimentality and emotionalism is the Fi dominant's ignoring function.

    EIIs are cool cats.

    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

    The said was about emotions and those at SEI are closer to IEI and EIE (as same Fe) than EII.

    Opinions strange from theory point can be explaned by mistakes in types.
    And sometimes other influencing factors. For example, E9 should make people more quiet and wishing to be emotionally comfortable.

    > EIIs are cool cats

    F, especially base F, can't be "cool". Fi expresses other kind of emotions.
