What types do you consider a threat to you?

[eunice]

When I meant "threat", I meant someone who makes you feel conscious about your weaknesses. You need not necessarily dislike him/her.When you are with him/her, you admire his/her abilities to be skillful in areas which you have tried hard but find it difficult to succeed in. When both of you like the same person, you feel that she has a lot more to offer and is more desirable than you, and there is no way that person will prefer you more than her.

For me, they would be:

Alpha SF: because they seem more outwardly caring and seem to take more initiative than me, and are better in Si-oriented activities.

ESTp: because they have a sunshine-y and dynamic character, are excellent in sports, and know how to groom themselves and dress well to maximise their good points.

ISFj: same reason as Se-ESTp, except that their character is more subdued.

If I had to pick, I'd go with Delta ST's, simply because there's no way someone could irritate me so much if I didn't feel at all threatened by him/her.

wtf?

I'm not talking about anyone here, btw.

Basically, I don't feel "threatened" by any type, but the type I've had the most clashes with is LSE, and SLI's can frustrate me a lot as well. So Delta ST's, particularly LSE's, must make me feel threatened on some deeper level or they wouldn't be capable of upsetting me as much as the ones I've known have. People watching would be confused as to why their behavior was so upsetting to me if they did not know me well.

On the surface, it would probably appear irl that I have the most trouble with EIE's, but Beta extroverts (more so EIE's) seem to have more of a problem with me than I have with them.

supervisor, superego, and contrary. nothing personal, of course.

I think I can see that. My ENTj friend, for example, finds LSEs extremely irritating when they take it upon themselves to take responsibility for him without his consent or approval i.e. involving him in social activities they are planning. He doesn't like when people tell him what to do or what he's going to do, particularly when he's not present when such takes place.

I would think that the comparative/kindred type would be potentially the most threatening type, as it would seem to one that the kindred was using their leading function in what would be perceived as misguided ways that would threaten their own vulnerable function. The kindred type can appear as the "darkened shadow form" of the identity type.

Interesting idea, that makes sense.

its written that comparative relations go astray when one is in a different position than the other.. i can see this especially with IxTj since they value their role in society and might see that as discomfitting.

I also read that one can admire their superego from afar. These two reactions could be seen as threatening.

[Ms. Kensington]

probably ESFp-Fi and ISFj-Se. The first one must have Se related Te (stuff I just dont pay attention to, and called stupid for this) and the second kind of the same reason, but for stuff they already know and wonder, how come this person doesn't remember this fact that we saw once before?

Oh, and probably ESTp.. since they have what my coveted male INFps want.

grrrrrrrrrr

ESTj, definitely. They just want to boss everybody around, and they also do it in a very controlling-rude way, that only messes things up and it's very disrespectful. All the prolonged interactions I've had with ESTjs have ended pretty badly.

[Gilly]

Beta STs. They are just to "in your face" for me, and they seem to always have a kind of charisma that just makes people like them. They are almost always stable and likeable people, and people just seem drawn to them. I guess I envy that inherent attractive-ness of personality; I can be magnetic in my own way, but I have so much pent up shit that I feel like I have to express in ridiculous, sing-songy, dancey, apparently "annoying" behavior, that my insanity usually just makes people like "ummm ok whatever." They appear grounded and confident and seem to have an ability to naturally attract the kind of people I am attracted to.

Whenever I see mobilization, I pay close attention. Very close attention. I find myself literally riveted by such situations. I suspect LIIs in general do.

[Ms. Kensington]

grrrrrrrrrr

lol that's what my ESFp sis would say.. shes Fi subtype. But did you think I meant I call them stupid? Because I meant they (ESFp Fi and ISFj- Se) call me stupid for that. but yeah.
