    I knew an ISFp at school who would do homework in the library at lunchtime because he was too shy to make the rounds around school for the whole break. Maybe that was a HA?

    Ti Super Id's appreciate those with easily understandable and applicable subjective belief systems (or just answers) that are clear cut and consistent. If someone with Ti HA were to ask a lot of questions to a Te ego, the Ti HA person might feel that the Te ego was giving them alot of unnecessary "extra information" and become frustrated at the Te ego's unwillingness to commit to a firm, solid conclusion and perceived propensity to "beat around the bush." Conversely, the Te ego just feels that they were being thorough in their attempt to accurately convey all of the background info while letting the info receiver come to their own conclusions without directly stating it to them.

    I've fed your Te-seeking so many times it's not even funny.

    Eh, I find that Te PoLR's ask more questions than Ti PoLR's do. Not only that, Ti PoLR often ask what seems to me the same questions over and over. Maybe it's because they are searching for a Ti over-arching explanation, and practical examples aren't enough for them.

    Have I corrected this correctly? (Why would a Ti PoLR be searching for a Ti explanation?)

    Actually, I find merely clear-cut, practical answers annoying. I like theorizing too much and I need to understand the why behind it all...that's the whole point to asking the questions to me.

    I'll try to explain how it feels to me. Being fed objective facts leaves me feeling...confused and unsatisfied. For instance, being told "Ti means blah blah blah and Te means meh meh meh" is not good enough for me. I want to go into a discussion on how it all makes sense in the context of the theory. So I'll keep asking questions if the discussion doesn't occur naturally (which is often necessary with SLIs IME and which frustrates them). I had a conversation with an SLI the other day and we had such a dynamic occur. He kept making statements in response to my questions and I kept asking more questions to get him to explain how all the information was connected. He got frustrated because to him, he had already answered my question, so he was unsure why I kept asking. To me, he was far from actually answering my question and in my desperate search to make sense of it all, I kept asking things like "but why, how does that relate to such and such". Or I would say something like "so you're saying that if blue and green that means yellow, right?" It was obvious that he wasn't helping me put the information together like I needed and I was frustrating him by putting this demand on him.

    I'll admit that this is the dichotomy I am having the most trouble understanding. Understanding the differences between Te and Ti, that is. But if I think of practical/effective vs. theory/analyzing, it is clear to me that I value the second and not the first. And yes I know there's more to it than those 2 word descriptions, which is where I'm trying to get in this thread. I want to truly understand the 2 functions and find out how they fit in with being IEI, IEE, whatever.

    Does that make any sense? Please analyze.

    Why wouldn't ISFps and INFps ask people questions about things they are interested in? Why wouldn't they ask questions to people they are interested in?

    ok then, your statement isn't good enough for me. pick apart my explanation and explain how it fits Te HA>Ti HA.

    in short, you'd think that someone with a Ti hidden agenda, is someone on the continuous lookout to justify one's own creative Fe.....by whatever means available at that point in time. Should a Ti dominant enter the picture, these lookouts become satisfied quite readilly, but after such ongoing stimulation one is quite deep within the psyche and must make one's way out.

    At one point or another, you have mistyped yourself, your mother, God knows if anyone else, therefore, I cannot verify the typing of this alleged SLI with an opinion of my own or comment on your description of this occurence with absolute certainty.

    Tbh, you've described Ti mobilizing quite well. If you really believe you are IEI then fine, just don't come running back to me for more cyber sex.

    This is pretty much spot on. It's not necessarily that we're looking for some Ti-ego to give us absolute, logical certainty; it's just that for Pi-IxFps (the real Ti agenda types), our Ti focus can become very scattered, and Ti-ego types give us the succinctness that we need. I don't think the volume of questions a type asks is indicative of anything, because that behavior will be very dependent on the context, level of understanding, and the type of the interlocutor (i.e. an ENFp will probably end up asking a lot of questions to an ISTj, because they are looking for Te but not getting it). I can relate to the frustration at Te-ego/valuing types' descriptions. I always want them to sum it up, colligate it into some overriding principle, and every time I try to get them to, they end up going on into a new sequence. I am sure that they feel they are being thorough, as that detailed, bottom-up style of processing is all they know; but to me, it is redundant.

    Right, well I think anyone should want to understand the "why" behind an idea. It's not as if Te-seeking types simply want a bunch of facts thrown at them with no conceptual understanding; it's just that the nature of the logical structure they give to their ideas will always have a ostensibly causal direction to it -- "ok, so we have this and it affects these two variables like this, and they compound into this more general notion," etc. etc. Ti is more about finding those overriding effects and working back to the core causes -- "so, there is this variable, and it relates to these several others in this manner, thus the relationship between them can be summated as," etc. etc.

    I'll try to explain how it feels to me. Being fed objective facts leaves me feeling...confused and unsatisfied. For instance, being told "Ti means blah blah blah and Te means meh meh meh" is not good enough for me. I want to go into a discussion on how it all makes sense in the context of the theory.

It was obvious that he wasn't helping me put the information together like I needed and I was frustrating him by putting this demand on him.
    That's interesting. I think there will be this frustration between types who don't value the same "T" function in general, but it is frequent that a Ti-valuer will feel unfulfilled when trying to get certain questions answered by a Te-valuer, because there never seems to be any overall structure illustrated. But, I also know that my delta parents can get frustrated when I give them overly-truncated answers to questions, because it isn't "thorough" enough for them, so it goes both ways.

    I'll admit that this is the dichotomy I am having the most trouble understanding. Understanding the differences between Te and Ti, that is. But if I think of practical/effective vs. theory/analyzing, it is clear to me that I value the second and not the first.

I want to truly understand the 2 functions and find out how they fit in with being IEI, IEE, whatever.
    I don't think it's very conducive to compare Ti and Te past a very general level. This is because they work in completely different ways: the former attempts to establish holistic coherence throughout an explicitly defined system, and the latter attempts to establish a logical sequence from ostensibly manifest information. And the whole "facts/pragmatism/work vs. theory/analyzing/ideas" dichotomy is absolute bullshit.

    Does that make any sense? Please analyze.
    That's what I have for now. PM me if you really want to discuss it.

    Why would you need to verify that he is SLI? You can base your opinion/conclusion on the interaction I described. Anyway, he is a self-typed SLI. :tongue:

    Yeah this makes sense. That's pretty much what I meant.

    That's how I feel when talking to SLIs, for instance. I keep trying to get them to put everything into structure. It does seem scattered and unfocused. Like "okay, now what the fuck does that have to do with anything." It gives me a headache because I am forced to structure it on my own and I'm not very confident about putting it all together myself.

    Haha, no need. I'm not an ass. It's just these forums don't transfer well the tone in which something was written, nor do I know how to express myself properly.

    Yeah. Anyone should seek a thorough answer to a problem. My point was that, the determination of what is thorough will depend on the valued elements of the people involved.

    Example:
    I just asked you a question, and my goal is to understand what you said "to my core", so that I have a "feel" for it, and can recognize Ti/Te later, for example if I try to type others, etc. Would this way of thinking be more typical for a Te HA or Ti HA, and why?
    I think it's typical for any person who cares about understanding an idea. Te/Ti will just determine the manner in which they need it to be presented for it to be deemed "thorough," "complete," etc.
