Because you only have 16 types, you have to be very objective if it stands up to anything, so if you expect these types of differences while keeping with the common ground of the science (and you see things more in complex verbs than everyday nouns so there is less room for error in overgeneralization), you're looking at it realistically. You're also looking at it from a resonance p.o.v., where mainly because we have not spoken, I don't feel much resonance from your side either, though maybe more than you do... It doesn't manifest perfectly due to other factors which interest me to understand, but to say it's a bad relation at its very foundation, even compared with alphas - that's off IMO. Not to say we're going to become friends, I don't make friends that easily even though I'm a friendly person. I'm just reserved in my eccentricity, but maybe with time, people change and adapt to their situation regardless of their fears and obstacles.
Easily I can see why you don't think we're the same type, or maybe you may accept it while realizing our differences, because personality exists at many levels beyond Socionics. This is just a good tool to use nonetheless. None of this means anything without me saying that it is very beneficial to understand the Jungian roots, and I'm not sure you apply them or care to.
