    I am unable to have basic respect for the suggestion that he is ENTp; he doesn't remotely show any signs of creative intellectual drive and unconventionality; sooner a lack of both. The guy is all about pragmatism, real-politik, meeting expectations and looking good doing it all. I don't see why anyone would not immediately recognize the brimming glut of Te and Si in him.

    Anyway, you're probably upset about being called his conflictor or something. Conflictor doesn't mean you can't like the person from a distance. It just means you don't interact well with them.

    And vice versa for dual and semi-dual.

    look for a somewhat droning, flowing, edifying, narrating voice in ESTjs. both of these guys have it.

    Mark Rutte is SEE. Typings such as LSE, LSI or SLI show a clear lack of understanding of Rutte's outstanding social and political skills, by which he fools most Dutch (although it's a bit odd he's still single).

    I can't point directly to his sayings and say this is why I think he's SLI because I haven't been able to find good amount of info on it; but, I go by VI and he looks like an SLI.

    This is exactly why one shouldn't type a person without knowing about his behavior, especially when you're prone, like you are, to type most people Delta-ST.

    If you have been able to see this person in real life (i.e. without television cameras around), like I have, you would have seen a person that has an attitude of "As a matter of fact, I do own this place!"

    Charles Ingram is Te-ESTj and he seems kinda not-boring, considering the things he's done. He seems like a good example of an ESTj E6.



    There are 4 other parts to the documentary. It's really interesting if you are/were into Millionaire. His wife Diana is likely Te-ISTp.

    Heh this is interesting. When the host said the wife was disappointed by her performance, that was a kinda Fe-PoLR moment there.

    That $500,000 question just kills me to watch. He makes it so painfully obvious that something is up, and his overt nervousness about every baby step he takes makes me cringe.

    This, IMO, is sufficient for a reliable typing.

    "Emotional card" could easily apply to Fi ethics just as much as Fe, in the sense that Fi could identify offense or boundary crossing and react in either a direct subversive or withdrawing manner

    dislike of overt expressivenes i.e. dislike of => Fi/Te values
    Fe doesn't necessarily mean "overt" though, and even than, you'd have to define what overt expressiveness even means, since it sounds more subjective than anything

    EJ - linear-assertive temperament
    Which couldn't apply to any Se ego as well?

    This, IMO, is sufficient for a reliable typing.

    It couldn't because no Se type is EJ - linear-assertive temperament. Some pretty good resources here: http://www.wikisocion.org/en/index.p...EJ_temperament

    In other words: Te-Base + E>I + Fi/Te values + EJ temperament + ST-club => LSE.

    It couldn't because no Se type is EJ - linear-assertive temperament. Some pretty good resources here: http://www.wikisocion.org/en/index.p...EJ_temperament
    Thanks for the correction, I didn't recall that Gulenko named the temperaments and thought you were referring to general assertiveness, my bad

    On that note, I don't really see Sugar as heavily Ej according to the description, he comes across more Ij; not that I want to use temperament as a basis for his type. It's from what I'd read and how he comes across in videos that doesn't at all strike me as Si/Ne valuing; he doesn't seem to be just a hard working busy body like an LSE, rather his motive comes across as being power seeking and domination with no regard for simplistic pleasures in the Si sense.
    I mean, if you can find something or make an argument to show that he has Delta values I'd change my opinion, but so far I haven't seen any

    In other words: Te-Base + E>I + Fi/Te values + EJ temperament + ST-club => LSE.
    That's what I'm trying to figure out, how does he devalue Fe or value Fi?
    You said he doesn't like overt emotionality, fine, but that doesn't really tell me much since like I mentioned, I could see that applying to either ethical IE

    While I've noticed that some SEE tend to be spontaneous and impulsive in love, as in jumping into relationships without consideration about compatibility, I've also noticed that LSE get starry eyed about their love choices; they tend to fall head over heels with women only to discover they are not assessing these women for who they are and conjuring unreal or fantasized images of them until things go wrong in the relationship and then they may consider that their object of affection wasn't like they fantasized of them in reality. This might be due to Se and Ti being in the subconscious. I'm a lot more careful and have always assessed people I've dated for all sorts of qualities before seriously considering them as a relationship. In this way, you can say that I'm a lot more realistic than my LSE dual, who I help understand and overcome their feelings associated with not being able to let go of the image of the fantasized woman who in reality is not compatible with them.

    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

    Besides for blindly putting people on a pedestal and rationalizing and overlooking or dismissing their flaws, an LSE needs constant reassurance of ones love and affection for them. They love and appreciate spontaneous gestures of affection, romance, words of affection like "I love you" on a constant basis. Being a negativist type, they have a hard time accepting that their SO loves them unless they are constantly told; they don't like it when people say "why don't you believe me, I told you how I feel." It's not that they don't distrust the person's affections for them, but that they have a low self-esteem; it doesn't matter that they are handsome or successful or what, because sometimes they don't trust it, they are insecure. This is why they need an introvert who has no problem expressing love, words of love, hugs, kisses, gestures of affection, romantic meals, candlelight and roses...

    I do not have a low self-esteem! I have yet to determine whether I would need reminded of affection, whether it's safer to convince myself the other person's last claim regarding their opinion of me is still true or that everyone moves toward ambivalence over time. But either way, being unsure of another person's current feelings does NOT point to low self-esteem. I've been assuming I can get anyone I want, and even when that was disproven I remained stuck in that mindset.
