    Default Type Me Before Gulenko!

    I've recently taken part in Gulenko's 2-part Socionics Diagnostics session. I've included both of the videos below. His assistant said that he will be getting back to me on Monday, but I'm curious if anyone has any guesses about my type before then.

    LIE-Te in nine seconds, and only that long to be absolutely sure.

    Gulenko only types people as LSI or EIE, so hang on to your hat.

    I've been typed as EII by someone who is a self-proclaimed "expert". Might only take you 2 or 3 guesses as to who that may be.

    I watched your entire first video. There's nothing about you that isn't LIE-Te.

    Idk who typed you EII, I can take a few guesses who but I'm not going to drop any names, because I think that typing is full of crap. Anyways, I think G is looking for dynamic vs static, contact vs distance, and how stable your nervous system is. Hope you enjoy the process and result in any case
    Socionics is a dangerous thing for a woman like me to have, but I have it.

    I can't click “like” on peoples posts due to the poor functionality of the site on my end. Just know that if you quoted me and were nice to me that I’m psychically sending you a like from my heart.

    I think most people here could guess. That's why I'm not dropping a name directly either... lol

    Rational type.
    Demeanor: stable, composed = Ij

    Describes thing through relatedness. Gets stuck on people's problems over his own. This even shows up in his work
    Power sensing for purpose, not active, release, not weak.
    Fascinated to see developments (people, work).
    Anxiety over future detectable (events, dreams etc).
    Does not really care about drawing attention to himself. Stoic. Fe is kept under wraps.
    Needs help in terms of logical action (moving etc).
    Hands on hobbies outside (it seems good match for LIE). Friends.
    Probably describes supervision friendship with SLE.


    ESI

    EDIT

    So Rotkiv suggested SEE-H

    And I think it might fit better.

    The popular guy drops his typing then everyone follows like little ducks. Not that I have anything against that typing but holy fuck people have too few own ideas.

    My guess is you're a logical type, focus on matters related to socio Logics and perceivable lack of proficiency in the ethics realm, Gulenko might type you LSI or ILI, although he can still surprise you with an extraverted typing due to your eye movements (when remembering or coming up with something you look upwards, if your video is not "reversed" it usually goes to upper right corner, which Gulenko tends to interpret as an EJ thing).

    If he types you as ethical, it will probably be 4D-Fi.

    Let me be the first to say that my typing methods are "Ready Fire Aim", and my initial guesses often turn out to be wrong.

    For example, I think that these are bricks, but they might turn out to be IEIs. https://imgur.com/a/Wbp5Ms5

    Only time will tell.

    I have nothing against your typing of him, in fact I consider it plausible if not good (actually goes in line with what I'm guessing) I was talking about the other people lol

    Sometimes, a cigar is just a cigar.

    I will admit, though, that I like to see other viewpoints expressed.

    I never really realized before I encountered Socionics how certain I can appear to be about some subjects. I think this is a feature of LIEs which is built for convincing investors that some crazy scheme is going to make them rich.

    But in truth, no matter how certain I might appear, I always have some doubts about my conclusions. This is why, I think, I need the often doubting ESIs around to fact-check me.

    should I have given a false guess because mine was similar to Adam's? And Adam and I do not always agree.

    okay, it's not a brick.. it's a cloud? wtf?

    Should I rather deny that everytime a popular figure like him says a sentence a significant quantity of forumites go in the same direction, possibly because of popularity? That's not bad per se and good for him, but the pattern is clear.

    Yeah, it's mostly empty space, according to physicists. So you could make an excellent argument for it being a cloud.

    I'm always surprised when someone says that I'm popular, since that is never my goal. My goal is to minimize conflict. Not even to eliminate it, but to minimize the worst aspects of it.

    u are selectively ignoring information
    what about when ive said a typing first then a popular guy has the same idea
    this guy's body language is LIE. i know a LIE, the way he talks and flicks his eyelids, it sounds stupid in words or maybe im just strugglign too much to explain what im observing

    its clear the resemblance, LIE - Te bottom right.
    im saying Te bc his eyes seem more active, but im not sure about it.

    I have not seen forumites doing that with Adam. /this time I saw obvious gamma BUT I saw more Ni than Te.

    You seem paranoid to me. This is one of the first times Adam and I have agreed on something that I've noticed. I read the post and then I responded. I saw NiTe.

    But we didn't even agree! I see Ni first!

    Where's the connection here? Two separate cases

    >Sounds stupid

    It effectively sounds dumb but don't worry, I've seen cheaper typings, and this one can in fact ring true. The VI correlation is correct.

    Ohhh this is exciting! like a game or something

    ok…first impressions…sorry, but your shirt instantly thinking Ni/Se here
    and then I thought mayyybeee LSI, but something about it made me pause. Didn’t seem quite right.

    so then I started thinking gamma, and ILI.

    And this was 45 seconds in lol …

    so now I wait to see how I did

    Also, I tend to notice Adam going in the direction of others typings, and I hadn't thought about it going the other way around (though I guess these things can go both ways). But I don't want to make this thread about Adam, it isn't particularly helpful.

    Imo, I think it’s more true that people are more likely to follow the first typings made in a thread and isn’t exactly just dependent on the person, although it can influence (like past typings made, general social opinion…etc.)

    I actually have the foundation of observing that pattern repeat in thread after thread. You coming up with something before a popular user does doesn't disprove nor correlate with my claim. I think you're taking it too personal when I actually didn't mean it that way. Let's stop this bc we're derailing this poor guy's thread xD

    My guess is you're a logical type, focus on matters related to socio Logics and perceivable lack of proficiency in the ethics realm, Gulenko might type you LSI or ILI, although he can still surprise you with an extraverted typing due to your eye movements (when remembering or coming up with something you look upwards, if your video is not "reversed" it usually goes to upper right corner, which Gulenko tends to interpret as an EJ thing).

    If he types you as ethical, it will probably be 4D-Fi.
    I believe the video is reversed. My eyes typically go up/left when I'm thinking.

    You seem paranoid to me. This is one of the first times Adam and I have agreed on something that I've noticed. I read the post and then I responded. I saw NiTe.

    But we didn't even agree! I see Ni first!
    @chriscorey, I was watching closely for Ni because, yes, I saw Ni too. One argument for Ni is his employment in a software field, but I think he said he was leading the team, which is more LIE than ILI.

    It's just that @hellohellohello is young and is just starting out the career of coldly assertive and relentless chaos and mayhem that Te produces, that the Te doesn't come through more. I was thirty before I started to hit my stride, and before that, I looked introverted. But hellohellohello is not introverted. His Te will manifest, which is why I said "Welcome to the Life."

    Lol, I see the resemblance, but I also don't think Arnold is LIE. I also think mannerisms are more useful than static facial features, but yeah.

    Does it matter? Sometimes people need to vent. I think RBRS was doing just that. But I digress, as debating this isn't helpful to anyone.

    "Eyes left" look to the past. " Eyes right" look to the future.

    Power sensing for purpose, not active, release, not weak.
    Fascinated to see developments (people, work).
    Anxiety over future detectable (events, dreams etc).
    Does not really care about drawing attention to himself.
    Needs help in terms of logical action (moving etc).
    Hands on hobbies outside (it seems good match for LIE). Friends.
    Probably describes supervision friendship with SLE.


    ESI

    I highly doubt the friend I was mentioning is my supervisor. We've been MUCH too close, almost since we met back 14-15 years ago, at times almost to the point of inseparability.

    The things you mention are some of the reasons why I've never been able to figure out my type, as I think there are a lot of contradictions.

    - I don't get stuck on people's problems. I enjoy helping people with their own problems versus focusing on myself. I don't think that's an R thing, in fact, despite my temperament, I think it's an E thing, maybe just a general Extroverted thing.
    - I hardly ever get anxiety, as I know 99% of the time what is coming and I take that time to best prepare for those events. I've never been considered as "short-sighted".

    For reference, I've self-typed as either IEI/EIE, and sometimes ILI. I've never truly thought I was Gamma though. If I am then I am not a stereotypical Gamma. In fact, my two closest friends (one of which being who I talked about) are more than likely SLE and LSI, and they've always pestered me about not acting logically or having very little connection to reality.

    I think I can easily put up a front, and that's what confuses others AND me about my typing.

    An Indian man came up to me randomly on campus at a school I was attending a few years ago and mentioned that I looked a lot like Arnold. Ever since then I have only heard it more and more. I think as I age I'm becoming the Terminator...

    Better find a nice ESI-Fi soon, because we don't age well*. After you become established at your job, you might be near your attractiveness peak. That's when you should sit down for negotiations.

    My advice: Meet some EIIs, but don't marry them. They are the height of respectable femininity, but you can't fully help each other. I have an LIE buddy who is an investment counselor and he married a fantastic EII who teaches little children. It looks almost like heaven, but after five years, their marriage is in trouble.
    I've had an EII secretary for over ten years, and if I didn't know Socionics, I'd have married her and would have been having some problems by now.

    ESIs tend to be more difficult to deal with because their Se makes them assertive, and an assertive female is not in step with social expectations, which results in them seeming slightly unstable or unbalanced. However, you won't find a better long term match.

    Try to find a middle-kid ESI-Fi with an older brother. For you, that would be ideal.

    *Plus, after age 30, all the women who are able to be in long term relationships are there, and what is left circulating is not pretty.
