I've read a lot about ISFP's on this board and here's my question: Seems like in the beginning of a relationship you guys like attention, but not clingyness. Help me understand the difference. I'm very interested in an ISFP and definitely want to show that interest to her without being clingy. She was contacting me quite a bit and I think I made a subtle comment that caused her to back off from doing that so much (hope it didn't hurt her feelings). So now, I still want her to know to be herself (don't adjust based on what I may have said). And I also want her to understand that I truly do want to give her attention. I get the feeling, however (my Ne at work here), that when I show interest through contacting her, it can seem clingy to her. Don't want to be clingy at all, she's free to be herself and have her own domain. I'm cool with that. In fact, I prefer it. At the same time, I do care a great deal about you and I want you to know that.
How do I go about transmitting this message to her in the beginning stages when we're still feeling each other out?
