What's your Socionics type?

[Kheledon]

I am ISFp-Fe (SEI) to the core. Never found a better fitting type.

I am without question an ENFj (EIE-Fe), and I have not yet found a better theoretical model for capturing the essence of my fundamental nature. That some people around here dismiss Socionics is incomprehensible to me.

beta sounds like a shitty deal

Agreed. Beta bites, but there's nothing for it. One is what one is, and no matter how much "reincarnating" an ENFj may do during its lifetime, it's still a Beta, and that's rough.

SEE-Fi. I'm the only SEE so far tho I've seen others around here.

I'm not gonna mention them tho because I don't want competition for...



Well hello there.

But you need to become a Te subtype stat. Our subtypes do not match ideally.

Masokiss my ass, she's mine.

Virtually all of of the professional Socionics folks who've dug into me (e.g. interviews) have pegged me as LIE (ENTj). Really, I can see either γ-Ni type (ENTj, INTp) as feasible.

I could also see ENTp, but I'd ultimately nix it because having to engage with its Super-id IMs (Si and Fe) make me want to stab myself. That is, screw the emotional atmosphere, screw dramatics, screw aesthetics, and screw "listening to my body." It's my impatience that forces me to avoid that stuff whenever possible. (And if I could live without having to eat or work out or sleep, I totally would just toss those things in the garbage.)

However, that typing messes with consistency and fries some folks' brains and makes them angry but tough titties to them. I'm always open to other perspectives, though, so long as they're not motivated by some hilarious outcry that carrots and mashed potatoes shouldn't touch each other on the plate.

I had read the exact description you posted and that made me thing that beta is definitely not my quadra. Power, "if you're not with us you're against us" and similar philosophy goes right against my very being. I even have to say I was angry while I was reading the description because beta seems like the sort of people I've been getting into conflict my whole life.

Quadras are helpful. I realized I'm too lighthearted and emotionally expressive to be a Delta. Alpha is so me.

SLE-Se. I am also sooooooo beta.

It might seem strange that I am so different between MBTI and socionics. Nevertheless, they are two different theories. For what the functions are and they way they stack in socionics, ESTp fits better than the rest. It captures my focus on getting shit done, not putting up with distractions, but also having fun along the way. As well as capturing my bluntness and aggression. It's not perfect, but neither is MBTI. The theory that fits me best is Enneagram.

That seems quite natural for an EII (Delta). That said, Beta isn't so much about amassing personal power (that's Gamma). Beta is about collective power (as you may have seen me say before--Beta. Allies matter.) Still, that's exactly the thing a Delta would hate (even though Beta and Delta are both aristocratic). Delta usually refuses to play Beta games, but if you're looking for conflict, you're more likely to get it out of Gamma. Yikes!

but they shouldn't

I've chosen EII for myself, for now. But I could just as easily be IEI.
