With no offense to anyone here but the way it was described seems somehow inferior to me. Maybe it just proves that I am a Fe user or maybe that Fi is something else. For it reminds me of childish behavior - one who shines her own responsibility away and just reacts. It would be hard to be around such a person because I would never know which of her internal values I can accidentally step on and then she would just shut down and become hostile out of sudden.
From my own perspective - I do go through the initial "resonation" phase when processing input but I've learned not to base my decisions entirely on that. For example if I detect inconsistency between what is being said and what is being done then I would investigate further. Maybe that person acts erratically because she's in distress? Or maybe my initial assessment was wrong? Come to think of it I would rather trust my own thinking about a person (Ti) than my feelings (Fi). It's also very important to check the direction of the internal moral compass with other people. Otherwise one can end up chasing windmills.

with no offense to you but ... apparently you have no clue about what Fi is all about! Maybe you could investigate what it is about before starting judging other types of showing inferiour childish behavior (listen to yourself, who is the judger here?). Judging about something you don't know anything about is a childish behavior in my opinion. You just focus yourself on one description and then state that you wouldn't want to be around such a person while in fact you are absolutely wrong in your judgments and have no clue, totaly no clue about what you are talking about. You are completely right that you trust on your Ti rather than on your Fi because you don't have Fi
Fi is for me the best way to make decissions. It focusses on the welbeing of everyone involved unbiased by desires, manipulations and half truths. To me it goes back to the deepest truths/source of nature and helps me to see that what is right and not that what is expected.
one who shines her own responsibility away and just reacts
since I concider myself an Fi dominant and you clearly know that, is this how you see me then? And could you elaborate on it?
I think in this case there is just a huge misunderstanding for what it is that Fi is and does.It's normal for people that use different functions to get a sense of superiority over the other, because you're projecting your own inferior use of the function onto others.
The truth as to why Fi and Fe can look down on each other is that we are on completely different playing fields playing a completely different game.

-Mostly silent, inaccessible, and hard to understand More like silent, intimidating, and strange.
-Can wear a childish mask It's not a mask .
-Reserved This is the definition of introversion.
-Private about their motives I don't like scheming. I want you to know my motives so you can help me.
-Not inclined to lead, follow or try and impress others I'm sure I do all three depending on what I want to do.
-Responds to strong emotions with coldness I respond to strong emotions by looking like a deer in the headlights.
-Intensive feelings rather than extensive, can be very kind in some instances without regard for appropriateness/manners etc. I'll take kindness when I can get it. I'm not picky.
-Feel sympathy without taking action Sometimes that's a good thing. I appear to have "sucker" written on my forehead.
-Can feel misunderstood Are there people who feel that everybody understands them? I would like to meet them so I can totally misunderstand them.
-Under stress can be paranoid about "what others are thinking" I can be paranoid about what others are feeling. I know what they're thinking.
-Idealistic: continually seeking an image which has no existence in reality, but of which it has had a sort of previous vision. Sort of like General Relativity?
