just curious. the ieis i've known irl i've admired a lot or even idealized and i'm not sure how the benefit thing works there.
So the interaction between IEIs and ESIs is like a game of chess. Okay.
Ok, I work with this one IEI chick and I love her. She's adorable and incredibly insightful, dorky, naive. and gets along with absolutely everyone.
most of the IEI men that I've known irl however, jesus, get them away from me. I can't stand being their friends for more than a week. they're incredibly pushy, constant "pay attention to me. pay attention to me. PAY ATTENTION TO ME", flakey, and usually causing a dramatic scene in some way, shape or form from a unfounded slight.
With the expection of one of my coworkers who is in his mid30s and is very similar to the chick I described- he's very quick-witted, lets everything roll off his back, super easy-going: he busted through the doors yelling the lyrics to "Thrift Shop" the other day <3
Pretty sure the dude and I are great friends at this point. We laugh a lot. the chick, I think I admired her more from afar: we always ran out of things to talk about fairly quickly. She always called me a sweetie, so I think she liked me?
I think they view them with their eyes.
I like how Polikujm takes every opportunity to deride others with his pretensions. Well shit, looks like another forumite class act.
ATTENTION
Keep your head clear of the flailing penises, Pseudo-Geniuses and Socionics-LawEnforcement abound.
