People and the state now of the network of relationships between them are the music, FJs are the musicians. --Carl Sagan.
?!?
Details?
In other words, think of a relationship as a chemical reaction, you have Person A, and Person B. Suppose the reaction between Person A and Person B needs a little bit more activation energy. The FJ serves as the catalyst for Person A and Person B and is able to get the relationship to function.
It would look something like this:
Person A + Person B ----------> Person A==Person B
(FJ should be over the Yield Arrow)
I hope this makes sense.
As far as I can tell, Fe is more concerned with peoples outer behaviours than what is going on inside there heads. Strong Fe types can be very good at getting prople to do as they want, even if they are are unaware or unconcerned by how much other people resent them.
For exmple this sight here INFJ - Introverted iNtuitive Feeling Judging lists male INFJs as being one of the most oblivious to there partners feelings. probablytoo busy trying to put there vision together to see that not everyone esle is happy with it
Why do other people resent them? (she asked, bravely)
Let's call it the Te Trumpet.
^ I don't think anyone's biting because there's nothing to sink one's teeth into yet.
Contrast the post titles "Pretentious Fi" with "Fe as Vibrations in the Ether" ... not as provocative or eyebrow-raising. It's like stroking a cat's fur in two different directions.
IDK, it seems to be enough here to start people chomping, if we're talking about chum in the water. "Pretentious Fi" is not the norm, although it is highly visible and in recent memory.
But as a post title "Vibrations in the Ether" sounds cool, no? So it's not going to rile up Fe users. And Fi users may get hot & bothered from a perceived personal attack, and this thread has no fodder there either, being focussed on Fe.
So this thread shall slowly ebb away as a vapour through the corridors of time ...
Actually the annoying part is that Carl Sagan really didn't say that, so the whole framework of the thread starts off with a lie; for what purpose, I am unsure.
