My EII friend, a classmate in our grad program, got me into meditation, as well as personality typing; I've been a consistent, reliable presence for her as she's dealt with chronic health issues that have been difficult to diagnose and seek treatment for. It's taken a while for me to figure out the sort of, set point in our relationship dynamic. Seems like sometimes I hold back or am unsure of what sides of myself to show. She shows care and affection in possibly more indirect ways than i do (cue my Ne polr). She made me a necklace with crystals that are thought to support and welcome love, connection and healing (intentions/values I share for the new year), as part of her homemade Christmas presents for her loved ones this year... now that is concrete enough to really get through to me! hah. pretty amazing, the creativity and deep intentions behind her gift-making.
I'm still figuring this dynamic out. Spending more in-person time together in the future, given that we now live in different cities, will be nice
