When I think of iNtuitives, these are the things that come into mind:
- head-in-clouds
- philosophical
- vague
- intelligent
- confusing
- need to find deeper meanings
- What do you like about preferring Sensing?
Hmm, this is tough, but I'd say I like it when I have S teachers.. because then I know what kind of essay would please them. Also I value the common sense I have. In addition, I'd like to say I'm good at being realistic and planning things in my life out.
- What do you appreciate about other Sensers?
I appreciate other Sensors because they live more in the present like I do. They are realistic when it comes to advice. My best friend is SJ and she always helps me plan things, so that's cool. Basically I like them for their practicality.
- What do you find negative about iNtuition and iNtuitives?
--Ns are so vague! I like to have things planned out, and when I ask for input and get a response like "whatever," or "I don't know" then it kind of bugs me. Being SJ it's hard for me to have an N teacher, because they tend to be so vague with homework assigments and due dates. Maybe this has to do with J/P too, but N has a lot do with it. An N teacher would say "write a summary on this story, I'll collect it next week sometime.." and an S teacher would say "Read paragraphs one and two and respond to the questions on page 32. This is due May 12th." I know this is slightly exaggerated, but I need those details, specifics, and guidelines when I have to do a project.
--Examples when speaking... this is a big one for me. When an N friend tells me a story, (s)he is likely to just say something and not back it up with an example. For example, my iNtuitive friend was talking about an argument she had with her other friend the other day, and the conversation went down like this:
---Her: I don't know, she's just pissing me off lately.
---Me: Why, what did she do?
---Her: She's being lame, and I don't know what I did wrong.
---Me: Did she do something or say something?
---Her: She's acting different towards me.
---Me: That sucks, did she talk to you about it?
---Her: Yeah, she called me and said I was never there for her, and also she kept saying I was a bad friend to these certain people.
---Me: Ohh, I see what you mean.. I have no idea why she could be doing that...
etc.
So basically, I always have to ask Ns to further explain themselves.. in order to fully understand a situation, I need examples and stories. It takes a lot to get it out of some Ns.. but so I can understand them, I sort of need to. Sometimes I feel like I'm putting words into their mouths to try to understand a situation better. :/
