IEEs/ENFps how do you express your love and affection?

[Reuben]

Love is the most vulnerable emotion. It assumes no danger, no lies, no fear. It gives much and takes little. If everyone loves, then there will be no danger, no lies, no fear, and lots of giving. The trouble is most people don't. Not all the time.

It's like total pacifism. If all practices it, it's a win-win. But it's best not to start in a hostile world because you'd be the first to die.

Things suck like that. What do you think?

Things do suck like that. I want that sort of love tho, so it's nice to hear folk like you are around (but do they only exist on internet forums aha!)

My last two relations have been long distance..well say 250 miles away. It's not been the best but it's meant that there's someone there, but the risk of getting that vulnerable is diminished. And its not that far as its only an hours flying time. And it also means that you can go visit for the weekend, so you get to go to a different city and have some fun seeing the different place and doing different stuff, and still someone there..sort of. Its the best practical solution I've got to all it so far, and overall it can work out not too bad.

Haha. As a young person I shall ditch practical love and go for something better. Maybe when I fall I'll become jaded, but let time take its course eh?

But I used to be an idealist. Now I'm not really idealist, nor a pragmatist either. Won't do for long distance love. Nor for "till death do us part" love.

Perhaps I believe in a love that transcends death. But it's hard. We're always caught in the trap of "I love you. But if I say that I love you, you may not love me. So I will not say that I love you." It results in nothing.

Willing to work for a more idealistic love? Or perhaps it's too unrealistic in this hostile world?

Hehe

I keep an open mind, something meatie (meatburger) and I said on another thread is you never know when or where you'll find it

So on that sort of idea, I'm thinking of mail ordering a Thai partner who's been psychologically typed for me aha! (or maybe Russian..they got good socionists..so less chance of a mis-type and finding myself landed with an ENFj hahaha..now that *would* suck!!)

Sod it..I'm off out tonight on the pull for a one nighter

[Reuben]

Sweet. I'm too young for that though

What type are you btw?

[Creepy-Cyclops]

SLI is I.

[Reuben]

Ah that's sweet. Wasn't obvious to me at first, but oh well. Have been of socionics for a year now.
