Well, just for the hell of it, here's what happens when I talk to ENTPs:
(They're young so forgive them, but) their ideas are usually really big, wholistic, but really, really ill-defined. Sections of the whole pop up without warning and I really have to restrain myself from saying, "But, but, but... what are you talking about?" I know there's a "whole" somewhere in there, or at least a topic heading, and I exhaust myself either trying to get that main idea stated, or trying to ignore the main idea and keep playing with the fragments they toss out.
Or, it's fun, lots of banter back and forth, usually ending with a stalemate and a sense of something missing.
Both of these tend to turn me inward, which I figure is Fi whining to me about lack of resolution and camaraderie.
Coz see, if I'm expressing my feeling at all, it's coming out as Te, and doing whatever Te does to create order, resolution, direction, whatever. But mostly I just get pwned. And, these ENTPs I know are teenagers. Gawd help me if I ever meet a capable and confident older version of the type.
