[Traditional Enneagram] 4w3

[magpie]

Let's talk about 4w3. How does the 3 wing influence 4? How does the fear of rejection and the need to be found manifest in one person? How do 4w3s express themselves? How do they relate to their emotions? How demonstrative are they, if at all?

The 4w3's I've known seem to be more interested in the performing side of expressing themselves - how people see them, being seen, showing their talents, etc. Show I suppose more fear of rejection, but also the desire to put themselves in situations where that might happen. Probably no effect on how emotionally demonstrative they are, though perhaps a bit more here. To be a bit stereotypical, I think actor.

Whereas the 4w5's seem to be more interested in the world in their heads, esoteric topics they can sink their teeth in, and generally finding a domain they get into but don't necessarily share as much. To be a bit stereotypical, I think writer.
