my wife is very smart. she is the best person at word games i have ever met and great at games in general.
but she has no desire whatsoever to engage in abstract thinking. When we first got together, I thought she would develop an interest in such over time.
Instead, if anything, her intetest in such has declined. She hated her college courses on more abstract topics, but excelled at practical ones.
One assignment her senior year stands out to be, even 17 years later. She had one last elective class and she took theatre. She had an assignment due while her brother was visiting. Ww dropped her off at the university library and cane back two hours later. She was stuck.
The assignment was to come up with a location to hold a revival of a play and to have an intetesting theme.
After we got back, she told me this. In 5 minutes I gave her the play, the location, and the theme (she hadn't asked me before to help) . Her teacher loved it and have her an A+.
But with no Ne and weak Ni, she just couldn't envision anything on her own.
On the other hand, my wife is the only person I can say is better than me at spacial use. I have helped load many moving trucks for many people and I an very good at it. She is much better, as she instantly she what can fit where and how to best make use of the space.
At the same time, she can't envision how a room would look without physically moving things around. She says she just can't see it in abstract...
