How do you feel about your mirror?

[mustachio]

I like ISTjs generally, unless they try to "direct" me - they don't do it with bad intentions but it gets on my nerves (ex. my dad sometimes comes to my room and tells me "fabie you have to do x y z" without even asking if he could enter my room etc

Does anybody like that?

i'm slowly learning to appreciate it.

You're actually right, eheh.

Of all the mirrors off the top of my head comes "they are very nice people." Mind you it's what actually comes to mind, not just some side-compliment; I think it's true.

[willekeurig]

I like my mirror. When I'm with them, I feel comfortable been myself knowing that they will not judge me. It's hard to find someone who is extraverted, talkative, assertive, has a good sense of humor and yet kind, thoughtful, and sincere at the same time. They are probably the nicest people on this earth (the next nicest type after them is ESFj). But strangely, I don't think I will date or marry one. I just don't feel that kind of connection or attraction when I'm with them.

Thissss! IEEs

[Galen]

I've had very limited experience with EIIs in person; actually I can't recall a single one. Damn :/

[Cyrano]

I've noticed that some people seem to view their mirror as foolish or annoying.

My mirror is annoying. Keeps telling me I'm not the fairest.

[Azure Flame]

Endless sexual war on a Shakespearean scale.

[Eliza Thomason]

This! EII's

[SyrupDeGem]

Beautiful, dreamy, poetic, delicate...with a sharp (often dark) unexpected cutting wit at times.

[Pierreuse]

Fun and sweet but they take my lack of motivation to the next fucking level and beyond. I only know one IEI who has her shit totally together (IE has HER OWN place, has a degree and a real job and isn't constantly broke) and she's the product of some intense LSE + LSI parenting who said they'd disown her if she didn't get her master's. So similar to ILIs except they don't reprimand me for bad decisions, so that's refreshing.

[Shazaam]

They can be a bit too argumentative and fight-y and drama queen-y and like they don't understand that the war is more important than the battle. I have been told that I am too passive and too soft and that I don't fight enough though, but i like to pick my battles wisely. Sometimes it feels like you send in the enfjs for the random encounters and the IEIs for the big boss fights.

If I am an IEI i can see how the mirror is the least in the quadra you get along with. you have conflicting temperaments for one which can make day to day living stressful even if you agree.

[epheme]

I like my mirrors. I can be myself with them and they usually get it.

We laugh a lot. I don't particularly think that they are funny. It's more that we find many of the same things to be funny.


They seem to like me A LOT. Always stalking me for my friendship until I give in. They even like my "mean" side.


But, like a couple of the others said, I'm not attracted to them romantically. There's something missing in that way.

[Narc]

I dated a girl a while ago that was most likely my mirror. We seemed to have a lot of similarities. Some of my friends told me that the two of us were 'perfect for each other... in a kind of fucked up way'.

Things went okay for a few months then eventually came to a head and now we no longer associate with each other.

[blackburry]

I'm like "yo gurl you so fly." and she says the same thing back to me. at. the. same. time. We're really in-tune. we are one.
But sometimes I think she's a sappy, lazy foo. And I'm like, "mirror. I hatchew."

[consentingadult]

I've noticed that some people seem to view their mirror as foolish or annoying.

I do. I got a haircut yesterday, went from quite long to quite short hair, and now I take much more after my father. Annoying mirror indeed.

[InvisibleJim]

It's okay, but I should really try some different products to get it really shiny. I've thought about buying a bigger one, but meh, it's fine as is.

I would like my walls to be all mirrors, then I can have these perfect relationships with myself.

[Kalinoche buenanoche]

BRILLIANT

[blackburry]

Hey, that's what I was getting at! *sigh* but poli phrased it better

[Beautiful sky]

I love my mirror relationships, when they are available to talk and hang out as they can be on the move, quite often; I have two very close mirror friends, one I've been friends with since birth (34 years )

[tejing]

My father's my mirror, and at some psychological distance we get along great, but the more we interact on a subject, the more come to see each other as intellectually backward and inside out, eventually leading to frustration and the need to back off enough to restore that psychological distance.

[Beautiful sky]

I like my mirror. She's one of my best friends. I like how she's so calm and doesn't usually have a lot of drama going on, so when I ramble on and on about my drama, it balances out. I used to think this probably annoyed her, but she seems to like seeing me get myself into funny/strange situations. I think she enjoys knowing she's not the one in those situations too.

She seems to like some excitement added to her life, as otherwise she sits at home I think. Though she seems to really like just sitting at home so she can be hard to drag out at times. She's also so organized and loves to have things decided, so she's always planning way in advance, meanwhile, I'm changing direction half way through, and losing things. But she's pretty social though she's quiet, and always polite with new people, which is good because I love to meet new people and add them to the group when I'm out, and she doesn't give them the cold shoulder like some other introverts that take longer to warm up to people.

Generally we're pretty chill and I can definitely hang out w/ her longer than many of my other friends. I can tell she's super avoidant of conflict though, so sometimes I have to force myself to bring up issues w/ her, even though I can tell she'd really prefer to avoid all conflict. So I end up being a lot less direct with her, and less confrontational than with others, because I can tell it'd make her uncomfortable. So I usually just imply things and let her fill in the gaps.

All in all, I think I get along really well with INFjs. I know an INFj guy too, and though I'd never date him, I really like to analyze his social life w/ him and give him girl advice. He seems to appreciate it, and he's very easy going so I like to include him in group stuff. So yeah, INFjs are fun peeps. I like 'em.

<3

I do love extraverts Jewels and I love that you guys have things to say about the stuff that goes on in your lives and that's why I like to listen because usually, I'm sitting at home making plans so that I can be predictable and stable in my actions.

I love you guys, my sweet ENFp friends, Eliza Thompson too

[lemontrees]

I like cooking and hanging out with ESE's and I like their fashion advice.

[xerx]

I like them a lot, but not when they're being arrogantly condescending. (I think they'd probably say the same thing about me).
When they're like that is when I get the unstoppable urge to contradict them.

[ClownsandEntropy]

ILEs and I are like the more socially awkward and yet more likeable versions of me. They also like solving problems or brainstorming ideas with me, but then telling me to do the actual execution. Not that I mind, I like the execution, it bores them.

[InvisibleJim]

Theres this guy in it who keeps copying what I'm doing.

Sometimes he just stands there looking at me.

I have but one message for him:

[malna]

I've noticed Infjs are very good to work with. They are reliable and keep track of all things

Of all things, these I've never been accused of.
I don't get along well with IEE. Too unfocused for my liking.

[DaftPunk]

I think i get along better with female LSEs than with male ones.

[HandiAce]

EIIs are a dice throw for me. Sometimes they open up and are good formal friends, othertimes, they are standoffish.

[jet city woman]

I view most people as foolish and annoying. So be it.

If you ask me, my standards rely on very-specifics that are individual to me. There is no one-size-fits-all when it comes to relations.

[InvisibleJim]

Watch out, you're disrupting a trend of ESEs self-typing EII on this forum.

Yea, I've learned to vocalize it differently when I need something from an ENTj. Instead of saying, "do X and do it this way", I'll say, "could you please help me do X when you find the time?" and then I criticize the job afterward.

It really irritates me to be directed too, actually. My S.O.'s LSE buddy commands me, and it makes me want to punch him. I just don't respect his opinions very much.... so I tend to avoid him. (Even if I did, I would have to go through this whole process of somehow letting him know it's NOT appropriate to make commands to me, and I just don't want to deal with it.)

[Absurd]

[InvisibleHim]

I thought this was a question about physical mirrors. Mine scare me, I can't wash my face/keep my eyes shut longer than 6 seconds.

[RedBeard]

I feel competitive towards them, while at the same time wanting to tell them "You're doing it wrong."

They're cool people, by and large though.

[ClownsandEntropy]

It's like your my mirror (wo-oah)
My mirror right staring back at me (wo-oah)

[malna]

ixxj as more premeditated/planned and judicious as more careful/detailed is just basic socionics theory. maybe you're special.

I hate to argue with that. EIIs are prone to focus on what they like (Fi), first and foremost, then on whatever they find interesting (Ne). The default mode is probing intriguing traits displayed by attractive things. If the work you mentioned provides these, then EII may appear solid indeed. Otherwise they will be easily distracted and hardly ever on time. There's only so much Ti role can compensate for.
Regardless, keeping track of things is by and large Te related, so EIIs (Te5, suggestive) subconsciously leave it to anybody else.

Really? We don't get this brand where I come from.

I hate unpunctuality because i hate to wait and it's also kind of respectless. Do you really think it's a IEE trait?

Maybe punctuality requires a certain level of mindfulness and forethought into when one leaves which IEEs are prone to doing. (But I haven't noticed a trend of IEEs being late).
