We don't play? What do you mean? And again, do INFJs ever feel compelled to plan out their free time or do they just have a "go with the flow" mentality?

"Why are some people able to deal with conflict?" I'd like to see TheDaringHatTrick answer that question. It seems like you actually like conflict.

Fixed. Now the go-kart won't crash.

Possible, although I'm both ISTP and ISTp. I read up on the socionics functions (a.k.a. information elements, which are very different from those of MBTI), and I seem to identify more with the Si-Te block than with the Ti-Se block. You can't directly translate MBTI to any sociotype. I only...

Combined with rigid Ni idealism. It's weird, like all loops.

How true... and ironic.

Not for Extroverts, who forget to develop their deep end. Nice post. ISTPs will definitely identify with this.

Maybe I'm on a different wavelength than you. In that case, the conflict you're speaking of is typeless.

And what about STJs? SJs in general? Why not? STs don't bite :)

1) Not an Ni-Ti loop, but a Ti-Ni loop fits better. I can't say avpd fits, especially given the strength of Ti. 2) If you're asking an ISTP like me, the obvious answer is "yes." Try asking them about introspection though, as Ti for INFJs is like Ni for ISTPs. For ISTPs, Se is lacking more...

OK, it seems my first question got answered very clearly. Now I wonder how Ni nostalgia would differ from Si nostalgia. Less details? A surreal memory?

I've always planned out mentally, in my head (which has annoyed a couple of my ENFJ teachers). I also don't like to plan out details (sooo mundane). Sometimes I might not plan at all, just enjoying the moment, and usually I do this for free time. BTW, do INFJs ever feel compelled to plan out...

That's what I call the MBTI conflictor. It's different from Socionics, and in fact, if the ISTP is an ISTp/SLI dating an ENFp/IEE (likewise with the INTP), then the relation isn't one of conflict, but one of duality.

That seems to be the problem of many feeling types: taking things too personally. After all, it is the feeling type who often fears conflict more than the thinking type.
