LIIs/INTjs who are social and well-liked

[xerx]

One thing to watch out for is whether someone has a personality or cognitive disorder. I worked with a guy who was extremely unprofessional and violated everyone's personal space pretty much by default. He lacked all self-awareness when it came to how others saw him, but he also interjected himself into everyone else's business because of high extroversion.

My first thought was that he was a complete POS. Then I slowly realized that he probably had some kind of autistic disorder and had a hard time processing other people's perspectives.

I did eventually figure out his socionics type: he was my identical. It did seem like he cared about behaving professionally, but because of his autistic disorder never figured out other people's unspoken reactions towards what he was doing.
