    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

    Or did you mean describe the way I look? Apart from what you've seen in the video, I'm regular height and build with kind of wide-ish bone structure, I think I appear a bit strong even though I'm not really (I have more endurance than strength, I think). I was into wearing quirky and vintage-inspired clothes for a while, a kind of fairytale aesthetic, used to blog about it too. Now I'm more low key but I think people still pay attention to my clothes because I live in the most aesthetically boring (and judgmental!) place on the planet and when I wear my yellow coat in winter, people can't help but stare. I just do that for my own pleasure tho. I don't mind them staring, I wouldn't mind them not staring either.

    You come off as a J type because you say a lot of words like loving-ing ending words
    Okay! Not sure how those are connected and I'm curious, could you elaborate? Also English is not my native language, if that can make a difference.

    INFj final type
    Cool, I gotta read about INFj then! Don't think I have before.

    Thanks for all your comments!

    Read the Functions from Wikipedia Socionics.

    Relations (R) is responsible for understanding the quality, nature, and appropriate distance of personal relations; makes subjective judgments; and aspires to goodness of character. R has a strong understanding of a person's nature and intentions, one person's feelings towards another, their attitudes of like or dislike, and based on this information, how intimate or distant a relationship should be.

    Unfortunately, there are many type descriptions that semi-fit BOTH types from opposing quadras. I don't think the problem is you. ; )

    I was thinking that too, that's why I turned to reading about functions instead of behavior-based descriptions. Turns out descriptions of functions very as well.

    I've had a chance to think about your type. I'm going with SLI

    Thank you for taking more time to think about my case. SLI is a surprising suggestion that's pretty far from your previous view of me, isn't it? Would you mind explaining you train of thought and how you got there?
