Type 6 is Ni and Fe .. so really it makes a lot of sense.. I think a lot of NFJs are type 6.. it's just a very misunderstood type and not very attractive at first glance, so people reject it.
A big one is the need for an authority.. most people don't realize this authority can be themselves.

Umm well, just read my signature. Interesting, two ENFJs are the first to respond.
Thank you! Just did read your signature, and thanks!
Yeah I expected a lot of other types...hmm.

I think so, but I've also got some 1w9/9w1 and 3w4 in there somewhere.
Gonna have to do even more exploring to figure that one out

6w5 SP/SO/SX. I was rather reluctant to own it... just ask arclight. lol
Hello...I thought I was 6w7 for a long time. But people who know me best (and who know the Enneagram well) have helped me open my eyes to the fact that I just may be a 3w2.
I really latched on to the six concept of needing support from others. I'm a very accomodating person and I try so hard to fit in and please people (and this includes always wanting to follow the rules). I also could relate very much to Type 3 and always thought this was because I disintegrated to Type 3 during stress. Over time, however, I've started to see that I have a LOT more Type 3 in me than I ever wanted to admit. And my need for "support" for others just might actually be a need for "admiration."
Has anyone else ever had confusion about Type 3/Type 6? I don't think it's all that common?
In any event, I think Type 6 is awesome! I never saw an ugly side of it when I first identified with it. I guess it just stands to reason that all types have their ugly side.

I'm a 6w7... I think.. I always get mixed results on enneagram tests, but I believe that's what I am.

Type 6 integrates as well as disintegrates into type 3..
Type 6 can often be confused with type 9 and type 4 as well as type 5.
When healthy it takes on the best of type,9,8 and 3.. when unhealthy, like wise.
Therefore a Type 6 can often mistype as 3,4,5,8 and 9 ..
The MBTI relation of Fe is most fitting to type 2 and type 6.
And Ni is most Fitting to type 5 and type 6
Using this logic, an Fe/Ni user is most likely a type 6.
Of course there are always exceptions and nothing is written in your blood. And Fe and NI can be found in all types.
And of course I am going on memory here because I am too lazy to look it all up.. but I am positive if you go into depth this can all be confirmed

Well, I'm way too chicken to achieve much. The 3 I know, though, could be confused as a counterphobic 6, because he's always overextending himself without regard to consequences or worries.

Pretty sure I'm 6w5.
Externally calm but internally often anxious and wound up.
Loyal.
Paranoid, especially if I seem to have annoyed a friend, I'm afraid it's going to have a cataclysmic effect on our relationship even if it's minor.
Prone to phobias.
Responsible but a bit scattered.
Surprisingly funny.

By the way, I also think it's cool to see so many ENFJs!
I'am a 6 too... but I'am ISTP.
It's interesting to see that many poster on this board are ENFJ. I'm curious about differences between NFJ and STP 6s, how so much different cases can happened?
ISTP 6s are Eminem, Henry Rollins, Amy Winehouse, or Angelina Jolie for example.
For famous ENFJ 6s, I see Tupac Shakur and Adolph Hitler. Can you see some others?

Part of me ends up wondering whether trying to find an Enneagram type for oneself can be motivated by a need to be able to rely on a stable system.
In that case.. well, Six.
In that case.. well, Six.

"I ain't going to take anymore, believing some of the lies while all of the signs are deceiving"
~ From, Eye in the sky - A Parsons
Type 6 and systems of belief ..
The systems can be all internal. They can be self invented and self regulated.
Whatever the system is, whatever it source, whoever it's author is, one thing must remain consistent. The system's own consistency.
If your system wavers. fluctuates, displays hypocrisy or breaks it's own rules, anxiety is sure to be present.
Type 6 fears, more than anything, believing in the wrong thing, being made a fool of and being blindsided.
How easy is it to self deceive?
What happens to a Type 6 who believes his/her own lies and blindsides themselves?
If the threat is internal then the anxiety turns inward and the type 6 must confront or run from themselves.
Are you confronting yourself then, or running??
Welcome to type 6 and enjoy your stay.:hi:
