Delta perceptions of "childlike" and "caring" types
What are your perceptions? Though I love caregivers, they have this way of making me dependent on them which I really hate. They can make you feel as if you cannot take care of yourself (which is not true), and that they have to know everything that goes on in your life (at least I get this from the EJs). What makes this annoying is that if you do something out of the ordinary just for that reason, they act like you are doing something suspicious and you need to tell them a good answer...

Have you had much interaction with ESTJ-Si? They seem less likely to do this from my perception, and less likely to "pry". Maybe ESTJ-Si would not feel as intrusive to you???
I personally like the "Te" questions and I think it is kind of cute, because it seems like they care and it gives me a chance to talk, when usually I am the one listening to everyone else.
As for other Delta caregivers, I am not really into the excessive Si care of SLI-Si or LSE-Si because it seems frivolous to me. (Worrying about physical comfort that much seems to distract from more "serious" issues.) I think my :Fi: can be uncomfortable to Si caretakers, because they want to protect my physical world and make me more comfortable, but I want them to protect my mental and emotional world more than they can handle. SLI-Te also does not sufficiently protect my Fi, and wants me to venture too far into Ne playfulness/ silliness/ childish behavior than is comfortable for me. I am too "serious" and exacting for them.
I have realized this all very recently after having interaction with LSE-Te who I feel protected me completely. Before this I might have thought other caregivers were great!

You are an Fi subtype then?
That sounds great - I hope it works out well for you.

Yes, I think I probably am an Fi subtype.
Sadly, I will probably never see that LSE again. :( Oh well. . .
