Other than being extroverted types that are considerate and emotionally capable.
This pretty peculiar thing I've noticed is that ENFPs can easily make these observations that make me of all people go "Wow.... how in the hell did you think that up again?". I wouldn't say that, but I'd... feel that way... about it...
Anyway, I found this really fascinating that ENFPs have this unbelievably underlying-ly stark talent for 'noticing things' that I could possibly never follow up to. I think it's because of their Ne-dominance. But it's like so outside-the-box by thinking that it makes me feel uncomfortable, because aren't I, as an INFP supposed* to be the one who thinks more* before I speak?
Like not to be self-centered, just as an INFP, isn't there a depth of 'noticing things' that we also have? I don't think we would usually , as we have Fi-dominance and not Ne-dominance. I feel that people would expect INFPs to have it to a greater degree than ENFPs because 'they think before they speak', but I don't think we do because we're not Ne-dominant like ENFPs.
Basically what I'm saying is ENFPs outdo us in what I imagine to be the field that we're expected to be good at in comparison to talking, - 'noticing things' 'outside the box thinking', etc. And ... what are your thoughts?
