I know it sounds like nonsense but let me explain.
I've had people tell me I just don't get it or just don't understand something that I obviously do. I think its because I understand the complexities and nuances and all the technical aspects that go into something and the person I'm trying to explain it do just wants the basics. The thing is, to give them just the basics only is difficult because the thing I'm trying to explain is by nature not that straightforward and trying to make it more cut and dried than it is would be to compromise accuracy.
So the other person thinks I'm dumb because I can't give a more cut and dried explanation with confidence and conviction.
Anyone else relate to this? INTP thing?
Would Te have an easier time of this than Ti?
