That's an interesting one. I think it could represent Four (he seems envious and dressed in an unusual way) disintegrating towards Two under stress (becoming needy and manipulative) or I think more likely Two (seems he was happy enough to take on the invisible, indispensible 'helper' role to start with and now expects to be wanted in return) disintegrating towards Eight under stress (becoming aggressive and threatening).

Well, you have to look at the complexity of it - the 4 sometimes idealizes the idea of being "saved" which is what he does "for her" ... in fact, I know what you mean about him acting like an 8. I look at the man and woman both, the overall feel of the song and video.

The aesthetic quality of the video strikes me as 4, and so does the fact that the song over all is "expressive, dramatic, self-absorbed, and temperamental" which is a text book definition of 4. I think there are touches here upon the 4w3 aristocratic idealized self, too.

(You could be right about this being an unhealthy 2 - I'm fairly sure I'm a 4w3 but have actually questioned I could be a 2 because a healthy 2 can seem like a 4, and an unhealthy one an 8.)

All I can post is four because I am a four so that is all I care about, self-absorbed elitist that I am.

YouTube - Boys Dont Cry : The Cure

how do you people get it to show the video right on your post?

:wubbie:

Take out the _ though.

Good one. Just about anything by the Cure seems 4-ish.

Crying by Roy Orbison, who was surely a 4.

That's true, the overall tone is Four-like.

(You could be right about this being an unhealthy 2 - I'm fairly sure I'm a 4w3 but have actually questioned I could be a 2 because a healthy 2 can seem like a 4, and an unhealthy one an 8.)
Oh, I wouldn't think that's likely the case. :) A Two can seem like an Eight if chronically acting out under stress, but the Direction of Integration doesn't work in the same way: all it tells you is which positive key quality people of each type suppress or neglect when maintaining their self-image, and so will be opening themselves up to most significantly when moving up the Levels. A healthy Two therefore won't seem like a Four, they'll just have allowed themselves to start looking for, noticing and expressing their own needs to a more normal degree - abilities most embodied by type Four.

I may be projecting, but I think this video along with this music is very well suited to type 6.

If I wasn't a type 6 before, I'm sure I will be by the end of this song. Way to make a person nervous!
