Compatibility analysis
You have two type preferences in common, which still guarantees a good deal of similarity in many ways (and therefore a comfortable relationship). On the other hand, you have to handle more or less serious conflicts which usually arise from your differences on the other two preferences. Try to balance the joys and frustrations of your partnership and bear in mind that learning from each other is more helpful than fighting each other!
You both wear your hearts on your tongues, so you never risk to end up in bored or angry silence - your mutual desire to talk about things helps you stay connected. Friendly, openminded and helpful, you try to support each other wherever you can as you are naturally aware of each other‘s needs and wishes. You are both outgoing, know a lot of people and enjoy social events, either as hosts or guests. Active and full of energy, you like being involved in many projects at the same time. These similar social needs are the base for a vibrant and intense relationship full of common interests!
While the „sensing“ partner of you is good at paying close attention to the present and seeing clearly what needs to be done right now, the „intuitive“ partner ist good at anticipating future and developing plans and visions. This difference is a source of conflict between you two, als the more realistic and practical sensing partner sometimes is lacking interest in the intuitive one‘s more abstract and future-oriented ideas. In return, the theoretical and more global thinking intuitive partner often neglects the down-to-earth activities and interests of the sensing one. Make sure to encourage each other to pursue your own interests, but always take time as well to listen to and to support each other. If not, you‘ll run the risk that the intuitive of you feels overburdened and slowed by unnecessary specifics while the sensing one has trouble and feels stressed in following the intuitive through dreaming up new schemes. Help each other grow and develop new strenghts instead!
The conflicts you two have to deal with usually stem from your difference regarding the third type preference: The „thinking“ partner often is uncomfortable and even impatient when dealing with emotions, so he inadvertently hurts his partner‘s feelings - not really seldom, as „feeling“ types tend to take anything very personally anyway and are unable to take things with a pinch of salt. In return, the emotional outbursts of the feeling partner are a real challenge to thinking types, as well as his tendency to base his decisions on how he feels about an issue rather than on objective and locigal observations. This difference may be a considerable problem for a relationship and requires a lot of tolerance and will to compromise on both sides: The feeling partner has to learn not to be offended so quickly and stand a debate while the thinking partner‘s job is not to dismiss his partner‘s feelings as insiginificant or overreactions. Try to see this difference as complementary strenghts rather than faults in character!
„ Casual, flexible and easygoing - that‘s the lifestyle you both prefer. As you both share the fourth type preference - „perceiving“ -, you are freedom-loving and both are happiest when you can respond to the moment rather than plan ahead. Neither of you is especially concerned about structure or driven to make decisions, on the contrary you both prefer to pursue whatever piques your curiosity - and drop it the moment it becomes familiar or routine. Impulsive by nature, you appreciate each other‘s penchant for spontaneity and talent to improvise. Due to your common dislike of household chores and day-to-day necessities as well as your tendency to procrastinate, your life may sometimes become a bit chaotic and more than one project may be left half-finished - but who cares?
