    Default Why do Fe dominants grate on me so?

    I find Fe bases really, really annoying when they fly off the handle or "freely express" themselves (especially in my face; my ESE friend and EIE stepmum were frequent offenders in this way). It isn't just limited to getting pissy or cranky with me or flying off the handle, but also if they're overly bubbly and cheery in a bustling, invasive way, like they want me to respond or get involved things or whatever.

    Is there a Socionics explanation for this?

    Not if you believe you are SEI.

    For the purposes of this exercise, you're allowed to put forth explanations that involve me being a type other than SEI. But kudos for defying my expectations about your post.

    I mean it. The view you have of yourself doesn't match with how you really are. If you don't accept yourself, how can you expect someone else will? The root of your frustrations is not other people, it's you yourself!

    Besides, I and other people have already put forward our explanations. You don't have to listen to us; it's your loss, not ours.

    Ok, here's a different question. What if someone else has accepted me? What if this particular person has given me their insights into who I am? What if, on top of that, this person has given me a strong personal sense of being an individual with an identity and a personality?

    These are actual questions, so feel free to answer them. I encourage you to.

    No, the root of my frustrations is with people who get emotional and pissy at me. It's unjust because I spend so much energy keeping myself calm, and then some petty bloody git has a bad day and takes it out on me because I'm in the .

    If you want to psychoanalyse me, try a developmental angle. Or better yet, don't psychoanalyse me. At all. I see a counsellor for this stuff, not some toxic mind-worm who ponces about proclaiming to know the truth and takes every ready opportunity to shove it down other people's throats.

    My friend, I've had issues with your self-important nonsense for far longer than you've been haranguing me with this psycho-babble, so don't go to that as an excuse. Really.

    Back on calm, sane ground, is this comment based on the assumption that this thread was in any way motivated by me being confused by my type? To clarify, it's a question that I don't have an answer for, and when I encounter questions like that, I ask, because I'm curious.

    What does spending energy on keeping yourself calm entail?

    then this is honestly a damn shame.

    I keep intending to ignore your posts, but I feel compelled to look because I feel bad for you. Its quite possible it will takes years, if ever, for you to find your real type using this approach.

    you are not SEI man, I know a decent amount of them, one for over a decade and you are absolutely not one of them. this sounds empty, so please, make a thread and put out why you feel this is so and I(and others) will gladly shut you down. not trying to be a douche, I just honestly find this rediculous. you dont have the control over Fe you think you do, and have never seen an ounce of your Si adeptness. all these people keep telling you things, you are someone who seems easy to manipulate; sadly this has been shown by your ever ranging type switches. you gotta know yourself, consenting is right; you do show a lack of self awareness in comparison to how you really are. unfortunately, thats the key to finding your type.

    maybe you should just forget about all this until you grow up abit

    So you are letting your self-esteem depend on what someone else says about you? And you really believe you have an indentity and a personality? Aren't you confusing the concept of personality with persona here? Self-esteem does not come from other people, it comes rom the inside.

    The ultimte proof you cannot be a leading Si types, because they are calm by default. It's undualized leading Ne types that have to spent much energy to keep calm.

    You see a counsellor for your issues, but claim to have identity and personality? That's odd! And I'm not shoving it down other people's throats, only your throat!

    You've had issues? well, don't expect me to move an inch, because as long as you are continuing your attention seeking behaviors, I'm going to be right behind you, whatever you think of my psycho babble.

    Ah, you are confused about your type? Now we are getting somewhere!

    The stereotypes need to stop. Not all types act the same way, there is a lot of misinformation out there, and imo, I have found other types to be this way to a higher degree. Of course, Fe dominants can be this way; but we have to take into consideration nature vs. nurture. My whole life, I was taught to be quiet and good mannered for the reason of being raised by my great-grandparents. Sociotype has little to do with explosive nature, it has more to do with environment plus many other factors.
    I know plenty of IEE's and SEE's that fit the description of what you are talking about. I have also met SLI's who fly off the handle but they are for different reasons and they do this for a different cause and effect.
    Being FE dominant, I rarely get worked up about things, but of course I'm a harmonizing type; so please don't stereotype the elements. All that's gonna do is start a domino effect of resenting and this line of thinking is just plain foolish.

    I do agree with Morcheeba that some of this of behavior you describe is rather stereotypical and I don't think all ESE/EIE are like this. However I do think that Fe-ESEs and Fe-EIEs might be more prone to this kind of behavior than the other subtype. Since you're an Si subtype, I could see maybe why you'd might find such overemotionality uncomfortable.

    I feel the same way myself. I've also found some of the ESE/EIEs overly emotional in a way that turns me off, which makes me wonder if these types are really my duals/semi duals and ultimately if I am in fact really an LII. However, looking at it from the subtype angle, an LII-Ne, assuming that's what I really am, would be expected to feel more at ease with an ESE-Si than with an ESE-Fe. That's been my experience anyway.

    No, they grate on us too. We just like to correct things.
