Omg this thread is a crap show.
But I'm really attracted to Fi. Mainly because it shows autonomy. It stays true to itself, even under immense pressures. Maybe it's an ISTP thing, but I like that boldness. Especially, when it synchs with my own thoughts on certain issues.
Even when it doesn't, I have found *mature* Fi doms/auxs to be respectful of those differences because of individuality. Fi dom/auxs are pretty understanding of that concept.
The exception being a fierce rejection of anything that invades those thoughts but I mean, most people have that in them.
My ENFP took some time to get used to in how Fi comforts. It's different than how Fe does. And I can't put my finger on it. Fe envelopes and has a unconditional quality (to me) of acceptance.
Even if, they'll turn around and disagree with what they are comforting you about. The subject matter is secondary. With Fi, I think the subject matter is always primary. But this feels like "unsupportive" to an Fe user. When, it's them not merging with you. It's that autonomy.
This is a blessing and also curse. Whatever kills you, also makes you stronger type thing. It's why I admire Fi users but also in some cases where I don't want to be hit over the head with *their* individuality. Lol.
Double edged sword with everything. Fe is same way but different.
But yeah. It took me a long time to understand Fi in depth.
