    Same. I haven't met many either. I wonder if we're overlooking them. I hate to say this, really, but the only people I ever tend to take notice of are Betas...it almost seems like the other quadras don't exist for some reason. I don't know why this is. Maybe the extreme differences are what draws my attention and the familiarity of Delta seems too....safe and "normal" for me to take notice. Dunno.

    maybe it's because I have known deltas all my life (dad and big brother) but through out my life it seems that I have always had a nack of seeking out delta ppl automatically... i dunno

    but trust me. After a full loooooong and correct evening, jam-packed with gammas you will remember why you need other deltas. Seriously. Believe me

    strange, but I always notice Betas too. Maybe it's all that conflict and weird tension that wakes me up and makes me notice them. I sort of like to watch them and admire how they go about things, since it's so different than what I would do. I also like to watch how within Beta they don't get pissed off at each other for acting in ways that would piss me off.

    I notice Deltas more now, but didn't in the past, except for male ENFps. They seem to seek me out...I've had quite a few ESTj friends too. I still have a hard time spotting ISTps, but am getting better. It really depends on the people too...different people of the same type are sooo different. And some people are jerks (and deltas too), so it's more than just socionics.
    Hi! I'm an ENFP. :-)

    ease of communication and shared values. Disagreements are just different preferences, not really fundamentally different or challenging viewpoints. Deltas (this may be a stretch because I certainly don't know) seem like they are all relatives of one family, one that sort of lets each other do what they want - and is generally cool with those differences - but share a sort of similar concern for their little community.

    Not sure how to describe it.
    Posts I wrote in the past contain less nuance.
    If you're in this forum to learn something, be careful. Lots of misplaced toxicity.

    I like this. It's very close to how I see it.

    You're brilliant baby. Just observe everyone around you, not just those who catch your attention.
