So I've heard that ESE are supposed to be good at the social-emotional stuff and reading people, but I've been wondering if maybe that's not quite true?
My impression is that they are good at reading the surface signs but might have a hard time going deeper?
Maybe the typical ESE mode of action is that they use Si, not Fe, to read people, since Si is about how the environment is impacting you and that could include people's body language and physical disposition towards you. Then they use Fe to try to exert some sort of influence to further their goal (usually achieving a positive atmosphere).
However some ESEs I know seem confused when people don't react to them the way they were hoping, and start stressing out about whether did something that caused the other person to be mad or offended and then start talking to people about what happened to see if other people can make sense of it.
So maybe understanding why people react to you in a certain way and reading between the lines is more Ne? (paired with either Fi or Ti? not sure...) It's just that even if LIIs are able to figure that out they aren't good at doing anything about it due to 1D Fe & Se?
