    Believe it or not SOME people are better than others. I'm not just referring to type here either. I can appreciate more about N's than I can about S's (in general). However, I have lots of S's friends and I love them dearly, and have lots of N friends that I love too. However, I love my N friends more. I'm not saying this with out personal bias of course, but I relate to them better, not to mention act more logical, and treat me better than all of my S friends. Maybe if I were an S I wouldn't feel that way. Who knows.

    I do however tend to treat (action) them the same regardless of type though while at the same time my feelings (emotion) towards them differ greatly.

    All in all, I can count on my NF or most NT friends to ALWAYS be there. I can't do that with my S friends (unless strong SJ), specially not my SP friends. I can however count on my SP friends to have a good time with, I also might mention that I can do so without planning it, unlike my NJ or SJ friends. Which for the most part I like planning but sometimes it's nice to just not have to.



    But, I think what it all boils down to is, what people appreciate in their own type is what they appreciate in others. So of course it's going to be biased. It's called "In group theory" look it up.

    Bottom line, I stopped acting like all people are equals a long time ago, simply because we're not. Maybe you should adopt the same philosophy.

    Seems alittle outrageous to harp on someone just for their opinion

    Wow... What makes S's so unreliable? I have an ISTP friend that is there no matter what. And she's a perciever. She really cares. She may not show it as well as intuitives, but she does. But hmm. I'm intrigued by your theory.

    Sorrrrrrrrryyyyyyyyyyyyy :( I didn't mean to make huge generalizations. I'm usually not like that.

    I don't feel like I was harping, however if stating my opinion (which is after all "supposed" to be equally important) which just happens to be in direct opposition to the first one proposed then yes, I was harping.

    I'm sorry, but you miss interpret me. I will not harp on you for having an opinion, and you should be able to share your opinion without fear of ridicule. Prolly my fault for the mistake given the results you expected, I should have been more clear.

    That's great for your friend, (I don't mean that sarcastically). I can't answer what makes them less reliable, I'm not an S. Maybe it's the fact that they are always in the here and now. Not being able to see the implications of their actions? I'm not sure. All I know is that through my own personal experience they (unless stated strong SJ) are horrible at doing what they say they are going to do. There is little to no follow through. Which to an ENTJ is a BIG deal.

    When you say you're going to do something, FRAKING DO IT! I do not trust SP's to do what they say because of countless times SP's haven't. Well, I can't count on them for things that matter that is. What I'm NOT saying is that all SP's are like that. I know their not. I know a few that can follow through (but only on selective things and when they follow through they also do it to their degree, not the agreed upon standard). However when 90% of a group does this, I find that not only is it most productive to not trust them, but I don't have to waste my time.

    I have a really great ISFP friend, we have some of THE BEST times together. However I would NEVER EVER EVER rely on him. I was foolish enough to do so once, he ended up trashing our project. And I am slightly concerned that I won't get in A in that class because of that.

    So all SP's get put in the "fun only" category and nothing more. That is UNTIL they can prove to me that they can be trusted.

    While I can count on my NF and NT friends AND have fun. When you can have both, what's not to love? The fun is a little different, but I like the fact that it's a combo of two great things and not just one by itself.

    Hey, guys... can we refrain from turning this thread into a penis fight? I must say, though, that I do love me a good sword fight ;D

    Well, considering the fact that I'm a female (next time you might want to check the gender before being clever :D) I would be more than happy to avoid seeing his... as a weapon. But we all know that vaginas are better anyways.

    Okay I'll admit it was actually clever.
