For the last time - Which of the Beta NFs am I?
EIE or IEI?
I have been comfortable with IEI for quite some time but after some thinking about how I would act if I didn't have certain instances of social anxiety, I realize that I am in love with being in the spotlight, receiving attention, being around people/crowds. Especially based on Expat's simple tests, it is quite obvious I can be seen as a Beta Extrovert.
It really is only fear that holds me back .. most of the time, I am extremely smiley, friendly, - it's my main mode of communication with others. I compare myself to other IEIs (knowing this isn't the most fool-proof way to know type but eh) and see a lot of differences between them and I. I crave the limelight, they actually enjoy being alone for long periods of time .. wtf? I made a post about how I am intimidated by a group of really attractive people, but in all other circumstances, I am definitely the smooth talker, the center of attention.
I value :Ti: a ton, I know that's for sure. I seem to have more of a :Se: hidden agenda as well - I've seen it through how I really want to be powerful, be in control .. or "seem" as if I am in control and know what I am doing. I constantly like to play myself up in my own mind and even to others (not the point of being annoying though) so I can show them that I can get things done. When people ask me to describe myself my first words have always been: Determined, Ambitious, Driven and Passionate.
My test answers to a lot of the User created tests such as Expat's (as mentioned before) and Joy's as well have all placed me in the EIE category.
Most of my close friends are :Ti: dominants ... LSI or LII. I don't seem to connect with SLEs much but that doesn't make sense cause they are my activity partner? I just don't come into contact with them ... really don't know any around here. :( Also, I have a close SEE friend which made me think we were Semi-duals but upon further examination, that could just be because we were friends since Grade school. Other SEEs really annoy me, .. Another thing is that I am infamously bad with SLIs and definitely feel as if we are conflictors. They freak me out and it seems like we always misunderstand eachother and they start to hate me.. a lot. ESEs I get along with quite well most of the time ..
What else would really distinguish me as being an EIE? I know it's pretty down to the wire here, lol and like most people would be like eh, who cares, you're Beta NF and that's that, but I'd like to know. I always equated Optimism with Positivism as well but lately have come to hear a lot of Negativism in everything I say.

Do you realise that this is an illogical statement? It's the equivalent of saying 'if I was a bit less illogical, I would be more logical.'
