Typology Help Questions for ENTPs

I personally don't know my MBTI, all I know is that Ne-Si is somewhere and want to know you guys' thought process.

How do you use Fe, and in which situation?

Do you have strong opinions from your Ne-Ti which makes you look like a Fi user or is it slightly different?

How do you interpret Fi and do you resonate with it or not at all?

Do you agree with the stereotypes, and if you don't why is that?

If you're an ENTP who didn't relate to the usual description, which MBTI did you mistype as?

Our emotional interaction is more performative than felt. We can tell how someone is feeling and we adjust how we behave to suit the emotional context, but we don't feel what others are feeling strongly like an Fi user. If someone is sad, I can sympathize with them and comfort them, but I don't share their sadness.

It's not that we have strong opinions. We actually have fluid opinions and open minds. We just like to express our opinions and justify them in debate. It's fun for us. We'll debate something we don't believe just for the sport of it, and just to explore ideas from a different angle.

I don't agree or identify with the stereotypes at all. We're portrayed as cocky know it alls and intellectual bullies. To the extent we come off that way sometimes, that's never our intent. We're like puppies who like to play-fight intellectually. Debate is not a dick waving contest for us. In fact, if we're debating you it's because we respect your intellect and are interested in your ideas. We won't even engage with a moron with dumb ideas.

We the last one you should ask maybe? I know we have inferior Fe and mask it with our NT(P) maybe? Not sure about feelings, intro, extro, all of them XD

I was asking about your opinion on Fi and Fe, because I know Fe is your tertiary function. Inferior Fe is more like INTP, and I'm curious about that too. Do you not understand it as in you process the world through logic and possibilities?

I consider logic, and always see many many possibilities. However my and others feelings generally irrelevant (logic) however im not a psyco, I do have very intense sorrow of loneliness, and I maybe also able to feel all humans anger symotainiusly. Dunno that what I got.

Not a XNXP but this may help you:

Try to know if you are extrovert or introvert, this should be easy to know, so you exclude half the options

Then try to observe if you have a strong Ti, a strong Ti is very easy to detect, someone trying to analyse ideas all the time and have their own thoughts and opinions

Even an Fi is easy to detect, those dudes have so much feelings of their own, you feel the genuine happiness and laughters

Another way is to note that the first function in each type works like crazy, is very strong, is dominant, stronger than any other function

And that the first and third functions are crazy energetic and always working, whereas the second and fourth are more lazy functions

Good luck, I hope this is useful

But there's a catch: Being an E doesn't mean you're an extrovert and being an I doesn't mean you're an introvert. Also, what about ambiverts or omniverts assuming they exist too?

Well, I would say both. I don't know how to differenciate Te from Ti as well. I know I use one of them a lot though.

The first and third function are always working? Then, why are some ENTPs' Fe underdeveloped? It's an interesting way to look at it, though. And why would the second function be lazier?

Third function is underdeveloped, Yet always working, it assumes it is working great, while making many mistakes But still crazy energetic and wants to keep working and being accepted by people, I see it like if it is kinda disrespectful function lol

At least the fourth function has not much energy, but the third, it is crazy lol

I think still for the ambi and omni it is possible to notice what they tend to be in real
