I've found the influence of my LSE father rather obnoxious at times, because the
comes packaged in
valuing/lead.
However, I was still usually swayed by him to some extent.
I do agree with @
Chae that
lead types are easily swayed or guided by people with strong volition – because they are both weak at it and receptive to it. Reinin has talked about this tendency in
leads, too. They often end up doing something they did not want to do in the first place, or what was against their better judgment.
As an IEI, I can fall prey to this dynamic especially when it involves Fe and Social instinct related matters. For instance, I let myself be convinced that I should study Law; my father wouldn't stop bringing it up, so I just gave in. He'd bring up Social reasons, and Self-preservation ones... Only once I was depressed because of my choice did I snap out of my stupor and decided to stop studying Law against my parents' wishes.
Again, being Fe valuing and Social instinct, I care about what other people think and say; especially if they are close to me and have greater influence on me, I can be swayed.
Basically, when it comes to anything I should
do, I can be easily swayed.
The only area where I can be stubborn and resistant is anything involving my
-
beliefs; when it comes to what makes logical sense to me and just "falls into place" in my mind etc.
This kind of stubbornness is apparent in the way I act on the forum often times, when it comes to Socionics etc.
P.S: Being swayed easily like that is also often connected with Type 9. I know of SEI 9s who could also be more easily swayed,
Ignoring and
valuing adds to that. ESI 9s, depends. Initially they might be influenced, but they tend to push back way sooner when something goes against their
values.
P.P.S: It's difficult to distinguish what I said from
PoLR, because they are also rather defenseless when it comes to
.
