    Default Feeding Suggestive and HA

    I was wondering if one could "feed" his dual-seeking function with books, movies and music, selecting the right content. Like, I don't have a dual with me, but I can think about activities that my dual would make me do, and things my dual would show me, so that I can simulate the presence of my dual and satisfy all my psychological needs.

    The same would apply for the HA.
    Is that possible?

    Feeding books media and movies and movies is Ne seeking and suggestive.

    that is a possibility
    However you haven’t considered many more possibilities that maybe that’s not all that they are doing
    You would have to go out into the real world have the type of interactions that they have, do the type of activities that they do and then you will find the right person and marry them and you guys can do all that together

    Plus if you’re an Introvert can you really find joy in new people?

    Not sure about that
    -
    Dual type (as per tcaudilllg)
    Enneagram 5 (wings either 4 or 6)?


    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

    To some extent I'm sure you could. It wouldn't be a particularly strong replacement though, being as your dual could spontaneously provide the things you have to struggle to get even a single dose of with some other media.

    You can get information from a book or movie. What you can't get is the goal associated with the IM element.

    You can watch how-to videos on YouTube but it won't necessarily help you to do your job competently.

    you may use weak functions, to use them more than before (activate), develop skills in them. to train them and such to make as more conscious, stronger
    people often like to do something in weak valued regions. it's often hobbies
    dual may give much help in this but is not obligate. it's alike to do or train something by yourself or with a specialist or teacher

    also dual's influence happens on your unconscious level much. even when you see or communicate on random themes with a dual (especially in good friendship or love), this activates your weak regions and helps to improve them. you may copy your dual and study skills in weak regions.
    an activation of weak functions means better conscious control on a part of your personality and energy of weak regions. you feel more assured in weak regions, higher general selfesteem and assurance, feel more energy in yourself

    Yes, it is possible, but it takes a lot more time and effort to get the same effect. E.g. To get into a relaxed state where I actually become existentially productive, I have to make sure I get at least nine hours of sleep each night and spend 1.5 hours in my jacuzzi every workday.

    When I was in a relationship with an SLI, all these things weren't necessary and I was making a but-load of money, working only an average of 10 hours a week.

    Yep, this works every time.

    I do it with music and videos all the time.

    I think such feeding is not only possible but necessary, however as said before, takes tons of time and effort and I think that second person is 10 times more effective. I noticed that semi-dual or types with your dual-searching as creative are super helpful to um, fill the void. Thay may not push you to grow but basic needs will be coverd.
