Motivation: to create lasting connections with those they are interested in - the "best friend."
This type has very strong one to one social skills, but is usually uncomfortable in group settings. They enjoy cultivating multiple relationships, and can be intensely involved when in the presence of someone they are interested in, but have difficulty sustaining these bonds when apart. This may give the impression of being flighty and rootless, willing to adapt and mirror others in order to connect, but lacking a defined approach that would give their relationships a more solid standing. They may have political interests, but are generally more pragmatic and less partisan than the other social variant. They are often attuned to pop culture and the latest trends.
Expression: bright smiley, intense expression
Energy: outward energy expressed intensely, broadly
Behavior: bright, smiley, erratic and scattered

Mindset: "If I can get close to people with merging/intensity, I can make sure of and keep improving my position and inclusion in the group/world."
Blind spot: Likely to neglect their desire to seek intense connections and experiences for the sake of their primary concern of building their sense of personal value, accomplishment, and security of place with others, in average-healthy levels. May not have an awareness of the body's need for food or sleep, or of the need to accumulate wealth for reasons of security, or of the need to manage time or resources to establish an orderly lifestyle.

sx/so
Motivation: to impact others, question assumptions, challenge convention.
This is the type that exudes the most raw charisma and sexual energy. They may identify so strongly with whatever they're involved with that they often become the symbol of its core essence, and sometimes its lead agent for change. Hardly content with the status quo, this sub-variant seeks to alter the fundamental structure of something while at once embodying it's purest or most extreme form. Possibly attracted to radical views on politics, philosophy, spirituality or creativity that reflect their penchant for testing boundaries. They enjoy pushing other's buttons, especially those resistant to their modes of expression. It's not uncommon for them to have a pet social, political or spiritual cause which they're able to support with heartfelt conviction. May exploit and seek to redefine sexuality to reflect their own colorful and uncertain understanding of it. While prone to exhibitionism, they are strongly attracted to grounding influences which can anchor them and provide stability. Failure to satisfy an especially intense desire for connection may cause this sub-variant to spite others at the risk of jeopardizing the need for an equal, stabilizing force. Can feel pulled between wanting a life of maximum intensity and reassuring episodes of peaceful convention.
Expression: intense, outer-focused
Energy: intense energy expressed outwards, assertively
Behavior: intense, assertive, sultry and aggressive

Mindset: "If I can maintain position and inclusion in the group/world, I can keep up and escalate all this merging/intensity."

Fe is responsible for expressiveness. Fi isn't. Lets compare ENFJ to ISFP for a minute. One is way more smiley (especially So/Sx) and the other is like -_-

Mm, true and not true. Fe often is responsible for intentional expressiveness as a means of interpersonal relation. Fi can be responsible for intentional or unintentional expressiveness as a means of sharing or reflecting an internal state. ENFPs and ESFPs are often very smiley, effusive. We tend to broadcast our internal state, our excitement, our forward-pushing movement. An ISFP or INFP will tend to let the warmth slip when they hit upon some nugget of genuineness that connects deep with them.

I do agree with what you're saying that Fe doms and so/sx will be more inclined to have open, radiant expressions. But of course Fe can also turn cold, and so/sx can be erratic instead of engaging.

Wait, in your original post you said if you're smiley you're not Fe. But in this quote you said ENFJ (especially so/sx) is much more likely to be smiley. I'm confused as to what your point is, mister. :rly???:

Anyway, from this post you seem pretty so/sx to me! I relate a lot to your posts because you want to spend your life making people happy (I want to pursue a job as a therapist because I also want to make people happy), but I see now your want to make people happy seems to stem from the desire to make the world a better place while my desire to make people happy stems from the desire to make my mark in the world and to impact the lives of others. There's some overlap in there I'm sure but I think you get the idea. :newwink: But we're both pursuing good things and I have some serious respect for you. I hope life treats you well because you deserve it, milady.

Oh shit, I meant you ARE Fe. when you're smiley you ARE Fe. when you're Fi you're much more constrained.

Good point about the difference, and thank you so much - I hope the same for you as well!! :heart::heart::heart:
