I relate to the introverted irrational types, I think; that I am an introverted intuitive type and I don't relate to the description of the introverted feeling type.

INFp?
Tell us more, please.
In any case, if you think you relate to those, read up on model A and look at how the functions manifest in you. Saying you don't relate to the description of introverted feeling may mean you can rule out introverted feeling as your base but model A talks about how each function manifests in us. You may actually have strong Fi but not value it. For example, INFps have 4 dimensional Ni and Fi but don't value Fi. In any case, if you were INTp, you'd value Fi but it would be pretty weak in strength, I believe. I'm new to this myself but think that's how it works. So, if what you say is true, you'd be INFp but I'd look into intertype relationships, if I were you, to also help you settle on your type. INFps are Te POLR and ESTjs are their conflictors. Read some info about conflictor relationships and Te POLR.
What quadra do you think you relate to best? INFps are Betas. There are so many approaches you could take to finding your type. Would you mind doing a questionnaire? We don't really know anything about you besides what you think you are and don't think you relate to.
You seem to be a very declaring and not asking type
Really? You read two books on the subject? What books were they, I've been looking for some Socionics books and hear most are shit. What did you read about in particular and how did you decide on your type?
True. He just came in and told us what he related to without asking any questions. He's only posted statements and no sort of questions at all which is even odd for a declaring type. I'm sure even most declaring types would at least come in with one question after their statement seeing as how this is the "What's my type?" forum so he seems like a strong declaring type so far.
I wasn't solving anything, just rolled with lul.

OK. There's a fair amount of good info out there for free, so buying stuff isn't really necessary (and not necessarily recommended, depending on the source). http://socionics.us is a good place to start.

Book title?
Also, we're not trying to solve your rubiks cube just for the sake of solving it. You came to the "What's my type" section and started a thread so we're just responding. So far you just posted about what you relate to and then told us you decided without asking any sort of questions which seemed bizarre to me and I'm IEI ( subtype). You seem quite declaring so we stated that since we're trying to help you find your true type, buddy.
I've noticed that Ti types like INTjs are typically asking and I think that makes sense since they're trying to get a better personal understanding on something as opposed to Te which seems more declaring since they are focused on the objective (facts, statistics, etc) so there's not much questioning necessary. I'm not ruling out INFp but did you look into Te being your creative function? INTps are declaring.
Jungian functions are socionics. The original dichotomies all come directly from Jung.
I used to have this logic: MBTI is bad. MBTI uses Jung. Therefore Jung is bad.
But MBTI distorted Jung. It's like a cult. We of socionics must learn the true teachings of Jung so that our system does not become distorted like that of MBTI.
Socionics' IEs are not defined in the same manner as Jung's functions.
There's nothing wrong with Jung. There's nothing wrong with MBTI either, in my opinion. They just aren't the same as socionics.I used to have this logic: MBTI is bad. MBTI uses Jung. Therefore Jung is bad.
Please (sincerely) tell me you aren't serious.But MBTI distorted Jung. It's like a cult. We of socionics must learn the true teachings of Jung so that our system does not become distorted like that of MBTI.

Using socionics solely to find ones own type must be difficult if you got weak logic since it is a quite a system to understand. But with Jung and maybe some MBTI structure (which is easier to get a grip on) i think it is fully possible. Now Lehasa probably knows that it is possible to be both introverted and extroverted according to Jung, he even suggested it in his book, psychological types that ones auxiliary function (2nd) has an opposite nature of orientation, and attitude (SN/TF) compared to ones 1st function and recently it was presented in Socionics hypotheses (creative subtype DCNH subtypes).
