    sometimes IEEs are playfully curious, but there is always an element of weak Se about it, and a sort of Ne-Fi ego reservedness about it.

    For example, an IEE acrobatically poked me with her foot by bending her leg almost around her back to hit my side hip - it was rather unusual, and it was lighthearted and jokey. But it was totally different from an Se dominant crashing or pulling physically. This was much more 'innocent' or infantile, etc.
    Posts I wrote in the past contain less nuance.
    If you're in this forum to learn something, be careful. Lots of misplaced toxicity.

    I can see both sides in myself. I love to go out to new restaurants and that kind of thing, but I do usually get the same thing at any particular restaurant. Sometimes I'll try something new but that's more the exception. I am really wishy-washy as far as deciding what to get from a menu, and it might be more about indecisiveness than anything else.

    You're perfect for your dual.
    The only Si think I want to try right now is well, not on the menu.

    I'm constantly looking to align the real with the ideal.I've been more oriented toward being overly idealistic by expecting the real to match the ideal. My thinking side is dominent. The result is that sometimes I can be overly impersonal or self-centered in my approach, not being understanding of others in the process and simply thinking "you should do this" or "everyone should follor this rule"..."regardless of how they feel or where they're coming from"which just isn't a good attitude to have. It is a way, though, to give oneself an artificial sense of self-justification. LSE

    I identify w/ this because the worst thing to me is to be starving and hate my meal and leave hungry! So yeah, I almost always go for what I know I'll like -- however, if I wasn't starving or had other food options, then yes, I'll try some new dishes in addition. I'm adventurous in trying new things usually w/ food, but not if it means possibly sacrificing leaving the restaurant full!
    Hi! I'm an ENFP. :-)

    I am all out and about trying new things, ESPECIALLY food (and the alike). Sometimes it takes me hours to go over the menu and decide what to take. My friends hate that.

    PS. Fwiw, my mom's like this, too. Si PoLR? Maybe not.

    I get rather sentimental about my food, but I will occasionally try new things. I generally stick to what I like

    That's making me hungry just looking at it, and I'm still eating dinner...
