Yet Ti is far from being detached from the internal and subjective. It's detached (as are all introverted types per Jung, from the external and objective.

In the end, though... if you're Ti, and you say this is you, who am I to disagree?
Oh no I like your inquiry, so please give us your thoughts. Based on Jung's assertion of Ti he says:
Quote:
Whenever the chief value is given to the subjective process, that other kind of thinking arises which stands opposed to extraverted thinking, namely, that purely subjective orientation of thought which I have termed introverted. A thinking arises from this other orientation that is neither determined by objective facts nor directed towards objective data -- a thinking, therefore, that proceeds from subjective data and is directed towards subjective ideas or facts of a subjective character.
