ya, you're both narcissistic attention-seekers.

Ah, that's the word I was looking for. Well spotted. Attention seeking, too, but definitely narcissistic.


Glad you agree, Ezra. I was beginning to think I was just being crazy but I know that we are definitely similar in some key ways.


From Socionics.com:

These are relations between equal partners which can be called acquaintances rather than friends. There are no visual obstacles in the development of these relations, partners can talk easily almost about anything. Look-a-like partners do not feel any danger from the other partner. The strong sides of the partners are different in the such a way that almost any conversations between them always fall into the area of the confidence of only one of the partners. Look-a-like partners also have similar problems which makes them feel rather sympathetic towards each other instead of being critical of each other's vulnerabilities.

Understanding between partners is usually good. Collaboration between them may be very fruitful especially if partners feel a mutual attraction. When partners loose their feeling of sympathy for each other through anger or any other reason, they can apply pressure to their partner's vulnerabilities. This can sometimes be really unexpected and unpleasant for both partners.

Arguments in Look-a-like relations are not common practice. The partners usually try to help each other, or at least feel when their partner requires some form of assistance. However, in many cases the help is not effective enough because partners have similar problems. Look-a-like relations have an average degree of comfort. Partners do not have anything against each other but also nothing for which to struggle. These relations can normally bring a feeling of satisfaction from interaction with an equal and not boring partner.

Any thoughts, Ez?

Any thoughts, Ez?

you guys are so gay, lol.

I guess it seems "eh" to you, but I am still considering it. I am also considering both Beta NFs. And ILE, of course.

you're obviously over-analyzing. there's no way you're a beta NF, nor are you IEE. gamma is out of the question lol...ILE is obvious...

Hold up, speak for yourself. I'm arrogant, but I'm not narcissistic. I'm certainly not in love with myself. Perhaps others see it that way, but I'll tell you now - I am not in love with my image.

Any thoughts, Ez?

Is that relationship also called Super-Ego? I don't use "Look-Alike", so I can't tell what relationship you're referring to.

Nice argument, Tyson. We will listen to you from now on.

[Ezra]

ezra. c'mon, dude.

What?

[strrrng]

Nice argument, Tyson. We will listen to you from now on.

lol...sorry, it's just blatantly clear to me. I'd be willing to explain more if necessary.

btw, your artificial directness is quite silly

[Blaze]

What?

you're not narcissistic? how's that?

Maybe to you. I'm still not convinced.

Narcissism doesn't always mean you're in LOVE with yourself. Literally, yeah, but in context it's meant to be taken with a grain of salt. Really it just means that we think highly of ourselves or over-value specific aspects of our personalities or physical selves.

Or maybe you don't. But it seems like it.

Is that relationship also called Super-Ego? I don't use "Look-Alike", so I can't tell what relationship you're referring to.

Not, it's look-alike, as in two partners who share their creative function but not their first.

a certain groundedness

lol, you're kidding, right? I definitely don't see myself as grounded in much any way.
