Couples are often made up of pairs of opposites in their way of experiencing the world. Thinking types often marry feeling types and intuitive people frequently choose action-oriented partners. These differences in outlook can offer both a complementary balance in a couple and they can become the underlying issue in the worst of their chronic arguments.
The differences between the two types may be inborn differences in temperament. But if you find that you are at one or the other extreme of the spectrum, you do have the option of trying to develop its counterpart by attending carefully to whatever is going on in the function you are less likely to use naturally.
You need to go against your grain: Thinkers need to pay more attention to what goes on in their hearts, just as feelers must try to think things out before saying something to their partners. The intuitive people must attend to the facts and the sensation types need to dwell on the implications of their actions.
Whether or not we should do what comes naturally may depend on the situation.
