Duma type (FEVL) description

Thanks to the First Physics, Duma are self-sufficient in their needs. They enjoy life, can enjoy food, comfortable chairs, beautiful clothes, and other life’s pleasures. To some extent, this is a lazy type that is ready to live in a clean house or in complete chaos: the main thing is that it suits them. The self-sufficiency of the 1F is manifested not only in relation to needs but also in the perception of themselves. Thus, FEVL considers themselves beautiful or ugly regardless of public opinion, fashion, or anything else. Compared to other 1F, this type may exhibit more pronounced possessive traits, perceiving such behavior on their part as normal or not paying attention to it altogether.

The Third Volition stimulates Duma. The 3V wants a lot and constantly thinks about it, which makes Duma an ambitious type. They like discussing their plans with others, getting help in choosing or support in decisions already made. At the same time, they can quickly give up if they encounter some difficulties. Public opinion also cannot fail to influence their self-esteem, which perfectly matches the ability of the 2E to play on emotions and attract attention. Comparing their achievements with those of others, sometimes FEVL encounters the fact that someone is better than them. In some matters, this can greatly hurt Duma, and they cling to what they are sure of – material things. Because of this, the view of life for this type is quite down-to-earth, if not materialistic. After all, how can one doubt oneself if they only look at their best qualities?

Thanks to the Second Emotion, FEVL becomes attentive to feelings, has a desire to influence and discuss them. Duma is interested in other people’s emotions, but how this interest is manifested depends on the specific FEVL . They can be a sensitive empathic interlocutor who will not leave anyone without a kind word, or they can make witty jokes, attract attention, and express their views on things expressively, but always expecting a response reaction. Duma feels great in the center of attention, they are not prone to shyness or being fixated on their feelings. If there is fun in the company, it is unlikely that FEVL will be indifferent (perhaps it is they who raised everyone’s mood). In addition to other things, the 2E helps to reduce the load on the 3V. When Duma doubts their decision or wants to avoid responsibility, they turn everything into a joke, and they do it easily and naturally. The hierarchical thinking of the Third Volition affects the 2E. FEVL’s humor can be both harmless and quite cruel (depending on the level of culture).

The Fourth Logic does not burden themselves with unnecessary reasoning. They prefer simplicity and clarity in expressing their thoughts, and are drawn to people who can do the same. When it comes to explaining their ideas, FEVL finds it easier to state their conclusions rather than elaborate on how they arrived at them or provide evidence. In discussions, Dumas tends to rely on authoritative sources and knowledgeable people, and they often have such authorities among their friends whom they consult or seek explanations from.

Duma enjoys pleasures and comfort, and has a knack for creating a positive atmosphere and radiating a love for life. Although they are not overly complex, FEVL has ambitions and with the right support, they can achieve a lot, especially in fields that involve exchanging emotions (such as show business). Intellectual pursuits, such as science or logic games, do not hold a great deal of interest for them, but they are eager to apply their knowledge or engage in conversations with interesting people
