Victor/Blue - reading the dialogue between you two made me want to pose an honest question to you both. (sorry for derailing..)
It is natural for some to respond to an issue with an immediate feeling. It is less natural for others to do the same. Some respond with an immediate thought. I know most people who are F dominant say that every thought is just an emotion unidentified, but I personally don't believe that to be true. And a lot of those who are T dominant think that most emotions are the result of overthinking, which I'm sure most F types wouldn't agree with. Both types would argue that the other type is damaged in some way, for lack of a better term, and will see each other's responses as negative.
Blue - it seems that when Victor poses an honest feeling to you, that offends your sensibilities. Victor - when Blue responds with an honest thought, it seems to offend your feelings.
My questions are: Do you think it's even possible for a T type to identify each and every feeling that could potentially be under the surface, in order to communicate with an F type? Is it even possible for an F type to take a more detached stance in order to communicate effectively? Basically, is fighting your basic nature a positive or negative step? Do we really have to become each other in order to understand each other?
