So, I kind of have some idea about what an IEI experiences around me, and yes, I know there is mutual attraction. Her Ni is better than mine, and my Se is better than hers, so we admire each other. The problem occurs because she might wish for more Te, but absolutely is not able to put my suggestions into practice. This is a source of great frustration for her, and I have dealt with it by never offering her unsolicited advice, and even refrained from offering advice when she asked. The correct reply is, "I have total faith that you will be able to solve this on your own." If she persists, the correct response is, "Well, I ran into that problem in the past, and this is what I did, but you will probably be able to come up with a better solution." But that is no way to live a life, long term.
