Exactly.What does Ne do again?
care to give an example in which we are disturbed by others who do it?Exactly.
They don't use Ne, Ne is their inferior function.
They don't understand it, in fact they are disturbed by others who use it.
I can agree with this, and do this quite often.In an ISTJ, we tend to use Ne more to understand unstated motives concerning what someone is saying or thinking. What we might call "observing what makes people tick."
Ne is our inferior function, therefore it is our least favored and requires the most energy to use. However, to say that we do not use our inferior function is incorrect. All types use all of their functions at various times.Exactly.

Um no.In an ISTJ, we tend to use Ne more to understand unstated motives concerning what someone is saying or thinking. What we might call "observing what makes people tick."
The functions use is outside of our control, but our inferior function is the one we will always distrust.Ne is our inferior function, therefore it is our least favored and requires the most energy to use.

Attraction doesn't mean much of anything.Nor are we "disturbed" by those that use our inferior function. ISTJs tend to have a natural attraction to ENFPs, but not so much to ENTPs--both of which have a dominant Ne function.
Um, yes. And I am aware of the fact that one doesn't "use" the functions--it is simpler to describe them in this medium as being "used."Um no.
BTW you don't use functions, you ARE your functions.
Sure you do.Um, yes. And I am aware of the fact that one doesn't "use" the functions--it is simpler to describe them in this medium as being "used."
We are discussing MBTI--not socionomics.
Others that use Ne do not make us uncomfortable. Really, this is crazy--you, who have proven yourself so clueless about ISTJ motivations repeatedly, attempting to tell us what we like and dislike.
Dude, I am an ISTJ and I know what I like/dislike.
The functions are fluid and interact with each other in a complex manner. All types do "use" all of their functions in various interactions with their world--your type indicates your order of preference.The functions use is outside of our control, but our inferior function is the one we will always distrust.
Bogus. I am married to an ENFP. Opposites do attract and deep connections are formed.Attraction doesn't mean much of anything.
People will be attracted to people who's dominant functions matches their inferior function but they are unlikely to be able to have deep connections due to the fact that neither type truly gets the motivation of the other type.
They might think they do, but they don't.
Get a grip man. You really know so little about what motivates an ISTJ, yet you want to tell us how we think/are/function.Sure you do.
Thats certainly the most telling line or the entire conversation. He views all ISTJ's as the stubborn old men who won't give up his old ways with the assumption that we are all rigid, probably has a personal experience to reinforce this perception driving him to only talk about the negatives. ISTJ's do learn, and all humans are flexible to the extent that they're aware of and are willing to allow themselves to be. It's good to know when a person is closed minded but that shouldn't be your presumption going into a type.It appears to me that you are using MBTI to pigeon-hole people into various compartments, not realizing that people don't fit neatly into boxes. MBTI is simply a preference indicator. We can operate out of any function we deem necessary--some just take more work than others.
I have lived under the tyrannical reign of an ISTJ and for some insane reason I'm attracted to ISTJ females.Bogus. I am married to an ENFP. Opposites do attract and deep connections are formed.
