    I'm just guessing, but I think it's that you explode when being teased. :wink:

    warmth and honesty of emotional expression (creative Fe), default intense dreaminess (Ni base) and mostly, our natural worshipfulness of their Se.

    IEIs make SLEs feel loved and admired--and SLEs need that... They also help them to have perspective, and (at best) a feeling of meaning in their lives.

    What I mean is that they need expressed Fe... Whether love or just genuine emotion... They also need Ni, which is what I meant by perspective (which can lead to "meaning.") They need imagination, etc.

    Each Sociotype needs something different to feel "understood" in the necessary way.

    LOL JWC3... yeah, the weird stuff

    easiest nicest people to get along with imo when i think of bullets and doves..granted every "infp" is different of course

    the socionics theory is practical if the typings are indeed correct

    just remember any theory will not stand w/o good framework
    just like u cant build a house w/o a good foundation it will collapse same principle i suppose this is my (Ti)
    always loved playing with this "system"

    They would like the fact that you are open to new possibilities. You would like that they are always trying to find the reciprocal of the situation no matter the outcome. You two would be good together, but i would be careful as their ability might not lead to the conclusion that you are looking for.

    Hope this helps.

    Cheers!

    Being open to new possibilities is more of an imo; but it would be quite strong in the IEI of course. Also, being careful of someone's abilities really isn't a big issue in dual relations; each covers the others weak points in such a way that you can't get too far away from eachother's expectations.

    I would like to clarify. SLE is looking to solve any problem with an open mind or attack the situation with a new perspective ( Open to new possibilities in my interpretation). IEI seem to always try to make the situation to the positive or to their liking (the reciprical). They are not duals in this (as far as I can tell as ISTj seems to be the dual of IEI or ENFj) Honestly I could be wrong here. If so let me know.

    On the point of expectations you can get as far away as you would like. It all depends on what you are comfortable with being able to cope with in your partner (at least that is my interpretation)

    Cheers!

    What are you talking about here...istj is dual of infp or enfj...what? No. ESTP-INFP are duals aka SLE/IEI. ISTJ and ENFJ aka LSI/EIE. Soooo have you read socionics or are you just talking about your own experience?

    No you are correct about the duals and I am incorrect. I had misread the information. As I have stated earlier I am learning and I do appreciate the correction.

    Thank you,

    Cheers!

    They're soft, cuddly, warm, cute, and always seem to say just the right thing. They defuse stress and brighten up people's moods. And they're appreciative of those with a strong will, organizational intelligence, and a knack for logistics.

    Warm and bright are not really words I would use to describe IEIs. Maybe sometimes, but not as a pervasive trait.
    But, for a certainty, back then,
    We loved so many, yet hated so much,
    We hurt others and were hurt ourselves...

    Yet even then, we ran like the wind,
    Whilst our laughter echoed,
    Under cerulean skies...

    maybe CAN be warm, CAN be bright. It's that creative Fe, the ability to use it when we want to.

    It's warm in a really relaxed, accepting way. Not in a Miss Mary Sunshine sort of way.

    Now correct me if i'm wrong. . .

    But reading through this and after a lot of philosophizing and studying the IM elements, I am really impressed that you SLEs appreciate how we make OTHERS feel. Not necessarily you. Which confirms my already present suspicion that SLEs are selfless and caring people. I'd already observed this in action though, despite SLEs protests that they are otherwise.

    Imagine that when you're just acting normal someone is like "omg that's so awesome!" and is really warm and appreciative when to you it's no big deal. And the more you just relax and act like yourself, the more they seem to like you.

    IEI's are stupid. There's no better reason my friend.
    She is wise
    beyond words
    beautiful within
    her soul
    brighter than
    the sun
    lovelier than
    love
    dreams larger
    than life
    and does not
    understand the
    meaning of no.
    Because everything
    through her, and in her, is
    "Yes, it will be done."
