OK - so Si definitely is not in your top two then.I don't believe I'm a Si dom because it's a function I really don't care to use. I don't look to the past and compare to the present. I'm always looking for new experiences and looking towards the future.
Honestly, the more you write, the more it seems you prefer Fi over Fe, which is an important data point.Fi dominant? Well....I picture a Fi dominant person as someone who always knows how they are feeling immediately and they follow their heart more than anything. I try to make the 'logical' choice when it involves my feelings, if that makes sense? It's not out of the question, I suppose.
Fe dominant? Quite frankly, I don't feel like I understand Fe enough to make a decision on this one. Fe in the dominant role tends to want to take care of people to the detriment of the self, sometimes. I ...feel like everyone should be capable of living a full and prosperous life, by themselves. With that being said, I'll help my friends and family, I'll even take care of them. But I would only do this for a select few individuals, my family (and I consider family to be of the people I choose to be close to me, not blood necessarily. Although there is a high correlation.) and I'm not sure if that has anything to do with type. Fe also has expectations about how people should act, I don't really. I know how I should act. If people are rude, that's life, if they cross me, I'll likely ignore them or cuss them out. I don't really 'care' about how people act, they can do what they want, but I am also aware about how people view actions. With that being said, I do care a bit about how people view me.
Haha. Understand what you mean there.Ti dominant? I'm just...not that analytical. I've had discussion with many INTPs/ENTPs and my thought patterns just seem...different. I try to focus on the big picture and they'll focus on the details. Together, we're great but when we're arguing with each other, it can tend to drag on a while. The INTP will apply his details to a real world large model and I will apply my top down view with actual concrete details.
OKSe dominant? I'm not all that dexterous, I love feeling sensations and such, but I don't think I live purely for the moment.
Te dominant: I've seen ENTJs. I just know! lol
That does sound like a preference for something else over Ne (maybe Ni)Ne dominant: I can have a very one track mind at times. Once I get an idea something is right, I'll think about other possibilities but I'll likely stick to the one that I 'jumped" too. That's not the behavior of a Ne dominant person.
Te = Contingency planning/Practical application
Ti = Detail oriented/Seeking for the most correct answer?
And now to this.
Te "Focuses on the objective external world by instituting systems of organization and assigning all information to a place within an appropriate system based upon quantifiable comparison. Te wants to evaluate, decide, and complete a task using a system of logical binary judgments" (Hartzler)
Ti "focuses on the subjective world of underlying principles and truths by creating original systems and categories and assigning information to a place within the appropriate framework based on logical analysis; Ti wants to attain internal precision through logical evaluation and decision making" (Hartzler)
Based on that description, you think you prefer Te over Ti?
