    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

    Definitely! But I'm definitely not economic, not particularly protective, I'm garbage at aesthetics (got help from a friend), and my pallet is garbo; I barely care how food tastes.

    1.) He's neither a LIE nor a LSE; he himself said that his usage of Te is implicit (read:"implied but not directly expressed") which would speak to strong, albeit unconscious 4D Te. Moreover, he creatively uses Ti, as evidenced in his playful "is Nutella on toast a dessert?" quandary, which involves him questioning the logic of a "rule" and the degree to which that works/makes sense with other "rules" concerning the matter. LSEs and LIEs don't readily check something's Ti logical consistency in such a way, though our high D Ti is more than capable at spotting and pointing our logical inconsistencies--we just tend not to do this for the sake of. Why? Because we are Ti ignoring. Based on his video, he does not ignore Ti.

    2.) Yes, not every strong, conscious Si user is stereotypically OCD and organized and totally neat/polished and will always stop whatever they're doing to cater to their physical needs; BUT, even as they ignore these Si matters, they are still extremely conscious/aware of them and the rest of humanity will suffer the longer those Si needs go unsatiated. lol IMO and IME, some of the most unbearable people to be around are starving, tired, unwell Si leads and creatives. Instinctively, as a Si PoLR, I look down on Si needs and those that take them "too seriously." If I have members on my team who will bitch and moan or become hell beasts or lose effectiveness because they haven't eaten or slept, I tend to see them as weak--however, I admit that this is an unfair cognitive bias. Therefore, seeing as how I aim to get shit done, I'll allow them to do what they need in order to keep going. Based off of his video, he does not seem to be Si PoLR or Si creative.

    He most certainly is LSE. He’s willful, obstinate when he wants to be. He uses Si ways to relax even if he doesn’t recognize it in his impressions of himself because he has cognitive dissonance

    It's annoying my dual barely cares how food tastes and is supposed to be paired with the one who is the best at making it.

    ILE's are usually very particular about their taste in negative sense. No need to be good but never and I mean never it can be potentially bad (subjectively). ILE's probably starve themselves to death before they taste something totally undesirable (and this is very subjective as I can eat needles from a spruce but not white sauce with eggs).
    MOTTO: NEVER TRUST IN REALITY

    Is a strong dislike for a specifc type of food really type related? I mean, for most if not all people there is some kind of food they can't stand.
    E.g. in my case. I can's stand coconut pulp, both the taste and the mouth feel. I'd describe the mouth feel of it as "greasy saw dust".
    I'd starve to death when stranded on a tropical island when the only source of food would be coconut palms; ironically you could live for a period of weeks only eating coconut pulp, because it belongs to the group of "complete food".
    ...and I can't stand the combination of peanut and caramel... There is a specfic brand of chocolate bar... I guess most readers know which brand I'm talking writing about.

    Side note: My mom is most likely SEI-Si too, and I appreciated her cooking and baking skills... I moved out some time in the past.

    As far as I can tell she doesn't even use recipes in written form. She has the recipes for at least 20 different meals, a bunch of cakes and pies, and how to prepare them in her head.
    Amazing... on the other hand she needs help with insurance and tax related stuff.
