We're period friends! Get well soon ok.
From the Ep + Fi ego perspective: To me, getting on well with everybody is only a surface phenomenon. I know exactly who my favorites are. I might not be 100% vocal about that since I'd rather act on it. When I like you, you'll see me sticking around, which contrasts my chaotic nature. For others, as you say, there's an adjustment. It's just that I won't make a big fuss about it and see what to work with when interacting. I can feel what is genuine and what is not from my side, but others may not. That's why I experience exactly that
relief you talked about when my natural mode is appreciated.
As far as interactions on here go, my sentiment is that I don't need a filter with
PoLR members, I can be very natural around them. No need to sugarcoat anything. I can be a full-on nasty prick, it's part of my core nature. But they don't care unless it comes to our mutual liking. Which is, surprise surprise,
. My dual is neither affable nor charming - because that's my part - but sober-minded and comfy (and slightly prickish as well, which I enjoy because I know how it's like, and together we can laugh. #EpicWin ). So distinguishing is no problem. A person who WON'T stand out to me as yet another person I can sync with is probably my dual. Because it's not a matter of
syncing per se there, just uncovering what I'm truly made of. In other words, I don't add things to conversation, but choose to subtract. TL;DR: What's up with duality as I see it is that spotting a kindred spirit beyond the umbrella of pretense is easy when you know what filter you have interacting with the world.
