This is a discussion on Sorry, another Sensing vs. Intuition thread lol within the Cognitive Functions forums, part of the Personality Type Forums category; A Sensor enjoys the current moment, not thinking about future possibilities or past events. To give you an example, say ...

    A Sensor enjoys the current moment, not thinking about future possibilities or past events. To give you an example, say you go to a giant rave. A Sensor would gather all his senses and enjoy the current moment: the people around him, the smell of sweat and beer, the sound of booming music, the taste of your own sweat, and the feel of the moment: dancing, laughing, and enjoying. An iNtuitive would perhaps observe her surroundings and generate ideas in her head. What sort of ideas, you may ask? Well, it is endless. One can intuit that the evolution of common dancing has been shifted dramatically over the past decades (from swing to grinding to jumping like wild cannibals) and predict how the future of dancing will be like. Or one can reason why people, including you, are there in the first place. Do you do this rather occasionally? If the answer is yes, then chances are you are more likely to be an iNtuitive than a Sensor.

    ..and a healthy individual sees both as well as the earth and the sky.
    I need to "see" the person--you can't just throw me a name and expect me to make a choice haha--I'm not THAT talented...yet :DD

    And for the tree and forest thing. This explanation usually works with writers. When you are writing and describing a tree, a S will say, "The crisp green leaves fell from the stems," while an N would say, "The lush tree began to shed its coat."

    Both explain the same thing, but are worded differently.

    Thanks :P I guess I'm not intuitive then,

    Why do you say ISFJ? They are dominant Sensation types. It would be sort of strange for you to mistake yourself as an Intuitive.

    ISFJ - The Nurturers

    Oh... I got typed that somewhere else in the forum. Maybe I'm ISFP instead, which I think has third Ni? although that wouldn't work because I'm fairly certain I'm an Fe, not a Fi.

    Are they any introverted personality types that have dominant sensing and Fe?

    Or mybe I'm not even introverted lol

    If I had to guess, you would be an ISFJ. You should take the test--be funny if I was right haha.

    I scooored INFP. Even though I'm pretty sure that's not what I am. I don't really understand the concept of "expressing yourself" Which probably rules me out as an Fi. and if an INFP is always dreaming about things, I don't think that's me.

    Wow...I was WAY off. So much for my internet intuition haha. I thought you said you weren't an N!!! Maybe list some character traits and we can try and decipher.

    Are you intuiting too often?

    Find that you bump into walls and things? Say goodbye to sensing. Seriously... the details that make up the reality of your physical existence seem a little irrelevant in such a state.

    I'd think that physical composition and control would be related in a sense.
