Hello to everyone out there
I may be borderline INFP/ISFP but my Se is quite low when I take cognitive tests. However I'm pretty bodily aware when it comes to sports (I have an athletic body but I'm clumsy asf, how does that work? I don't know) and can be a sensual person but there has to be meaning to those experiences and it's contribution to something I value mentally.
Regarding that ^^^ I feel more relatable to INFP description and in cognitive tests I always result with high Ni that is usually equal to my Fi with Ne following right after.
I have noticed that I can string patterns in behaviour and always see the outcome of a situation in the long run whether I ignore them or not. And because my Ne is also high right after Fi and Ni, I tend to want to give the benefit of the doubt when my Ni kicks in and ignore gut instincts because I want to believe so hard that there's other possible outcomes to the situation.
I always end up criticizing myself for not listening to this gut instinct I have because I end up hurt or in a disaster that could have been avoided. I'm having a struggle between trying to balance my Fi, Ni, and Ne to co-operate together. I know they are just functions and everyone deals with their life differently but I've noticed this is a generalized process conflict I have when I deal with making decisions.
I can also see that maybe my gut instinct is the pattern of behaviour reflected in myself and others through my internal feeling process, because I'm recognizing feelings I've had in the past about a situation...but at the same time I tend to instinctively know or understand the essence of a concept or situation even if it does not involve my feelings, and even when I don't know much about the the topic in detail.
I'm wondering if there are any Fi users out there that find their values line up with Ni, maybe because that can become a value itself?
And if so or not what is your take on the similarities between the two functions in your own on observations?
And how do you deal with it?
Sorry for the random information that may/may not have been needed. :hi:
