Resurrecting dead thread. Glad you settled on IEI. Good example of an IEI 3, imo. Maybe I'm just saying that because I liked a lot of the things you said and want to impose your narrative on myself. Can really relate to the bits about being weird in high school and yet bizarrely loved. Deathly afraid of going out with a girl merely because she shows interest despite my lack thereof. SLEs are a good antidote to that problem, as far as theory would have you believe.

ARGH. Everything you said reminds me of myself. Now I'm wondering if I'm an SEI. Except I'm not. Shrug-sigh.
