He has an unhurried pace, hesitates for a long time before making a decision. Avoids risks. Without external impulse or external motivation, he can remain in a state of inertia for a long time.
Ni type men can move forward with confidence if they feel that they have sufficient backup. They realize that people are weak alone, but together they are a great force. Therefore, Ni type people tend to join together with others, maintain alliances and associations to achieve a common goal: survival, defense, realization of the idea.

Ni type man respects other's space, he leaves his partner free to do what she wants: "whatever you want to do is fine." He’s more comfortable letting his mate take the lead in relationship. He feels at ease near grounded, practical woman connected to the material world who can bring him back from his reveries to earth and provide him with a sense of stability and security.
Ni man is open to experimentation in the bedroom. He needs forceful pressure and confrontation, he wants his partner to conquer and subdue him. Thanks to his creativity and nonjudgmental nature he’s down to try just about any fantasy of his partner.
