What type could I be?

ILE

Thanks for cleaning up the garbage posts.

ILE was a type I was considering as well, considering the articles on masks. If possible, could you elaborate?

Any of the NT other than LIE imo is possible but it's just so very common for ILE's to type themselves introverted for social reasons.

Also given what you've written in your initial posts and questionnaire, you reveal very little of your subjective self, you focus on how others might perceive you and what others have remarked about you.

Being in one's head could simply be the intuition vs introversion, you seem to have a more outward looking communication style.

You seem ILE from the feel of the questionnaire.

This is a pretty good point. Are there any sources that could elaborate and clear this up?

It could be the indecisiveness and sense of vagueness that pervades throughout, as others have said. Is it possible to point out some specific things that produced the impression?

I don't have great reasoning so feel free to ignore! Sometimes I jump into typing without enough info ("an intuitive feeling" is not info, and is just as often incorrect as correct). Although I believe that, given enough time and info, I'm not a bad typer.

I guess, the thing that stood out to me was how easy to read your posts were- when I've read posts by LII members I've often felt a slight bit more "friction," like what they are saying may be interesting but I have to strain slightly harder to keep up. Your posts feel very "relaxed," to me, like the proper rhythm.

The other thing is that I absolutely agree with Hkkmr- some ILE's can come across as really "introverted," so this is not a reliable way to type imo.

Finally, just out of curiosity, what makes you think you're sp/sx and not so/sx? Not challenging it; it's just that nothing you mentioned makes me feel like ruling out the one in favor of the other (although I understand that this is a socionics, not enneagram, typing thread.)

You're definitely right about intuitive feelings, but at least you acknowledge it's faults. I still think that with enough experience in a given subject area, it can at very least give some type of movement in the right direction.

I've been considering ILE a bit more seriously, due in part to both your and Hkkmr's posts, as well as the realization that i've probably let some MBTI stereotypes seep into thinking about Socionics types. It's also indicative that the few others that have attempted to type me have mentioned the accentuation of , if I were indeed LII. I may have over-emphasized my social introversion in any case, and something like that probably can be related to confounding non-Socionics factors.

As for the Enneagram instinct stacking, I took it from another type me thread, but it was really determined from a glance at the information available. I would have to investigate more thoroughly before I can confirm or deny it. I am more confident of the 5w6 typing though.
