I would tend to agree with that.
.... Right.From my experiences, that might not be the best litmus test.
Ok.
I see her more as probably a Si subtype, but I'm open to different opinions on that. I do know that overall she doesn't fit the stereotypical bubbly, social extrovert that many type descriptions present - you know, the ones that talk about ESE's always organizing parties and pushing people to have "fun." But when you dig down into things like temperament, functions / IE ordering, etc. that's the type that best fits her, from my perspective.
I think I need to observe him more to see how his natural flows of energy manifest... I feel like I don't have enough data, that I'm just going on gut feelings and guesses right now.
I have ideas in my own head, of course. The reason I made this thread, though, was to get ideas from other people's heads.
I haven't actually had a lot of time to gain experiences with this guy. All told two weeks at most, really a bit less, despite having known him for a little over a year. We live in different parts of the world most of the year. So my sampling is small to start off with, plus who knows how he's adapted himself thus far.
I think it will be interesting to get my ESE's perspective on him. She's usually got something to say about everybody.
When I asked my SEE friend, who knew him first, what she thinks of him, she shrugged and said something like, "He's ok. Nice. A little European creepy, but not like [another guy who had harassed us]. He's good." (By "European creepy" I think she meant how they tend to invade personal space a bit more than she's used to.)
The last time I saw them talk, though, I sensed some tension. She's quite flirty and chases the boys a lot, and I think he doesn't respect her for that. She was making plans to hang out with a new guy acquaintance at a movie theater, he made a crude gesture toward her, and she flipped him off. When she left a little after that she didn't look especially happy.
He swears. Then appears to recalculate how to approach things. But those were relatively minor setbacks. I haven't seen him under bigger stress.
I don't know his E-type. Park suggested 9w8.
