Recognizing that my tertiary was Si was really what solidified my typing as INFP. That's a left field way of inferring your type but it works.
I definitely see you as responding to things "in the moment", which I can barely do. For this reason, I can understand why others are still under the impression that you're ENFP since Pe lends itself to that sort of thing, even when it's not as reflexive as Se. I can occupy ambiversion pretty damned easily so people have assumed I'm extraverted but I simply don't draw energy from others. They're comforting, but things don't add up when I'm making efforts in the social scene.
Would you say that ISFPs are more prone to be socialites than INFPs?
Even when I focus on narrative, I traipse off to embellish things creatively to emphasize points. I think we have different ways of addressing the audience but you probably have your bases covered in more ways that i do.
Yep, the nickname is kinda lame.They truly do.... geez. [MENTION=9310]uumlau[/MENTION] [MENTION=13260]Rasofy[/MENTION] are some of the other "thinkers". It's funny how we all come across differently but seem somewhat similar. lol

I have thought about it and decided gender and introversion have nothing to do with it. By looking at your posting style vs other introverted 6's, Zarathustra comes to mind, a male, an introvert, and a 6.I guess that sort of answers my question.
I'm male.
They truly do.... geez. [MENTION=9310]uumlau[/MENTION] [MENTION=13260]Rasofy[/MENTION] are some of the other "thinkers". It's funny how we all come across differently but seem somewhat similar. lol
Yeah I was saying the same thing to Ginkgo earlier.
Yep, the nickname is kinda lame.
Otoh, I love the triads that the people from enneagram institute came up with (one for each combination of tri type):
Triple hiders of true self works perfectly for both of us. Don't know ummlau and senza enough to make that call, though I do sense a similar vibe. [MENTION=15004]Mia.[/MENTION] (954) fit the "triple withdrawn" description masterfully.
As for Ginkgo, mostly by elimination, I'd guess 497.

Tritype is one of the dumber ideas on this site.
I'm going 4w3. 4 for the oddness, 3 for the drama queeniness.
[MENTION=8031]Ginkgo[/MENTION]
some combination of 479.
4 fix: not 2 or 3, nuff said (that said, I still don't buy it as your core)
9 fix: you're not critical, stern or conscientious enough to be a 1 fixer. 1 fixers have a sort of tenseness to them and show more obvious signs of frustration. your demeanor always say "I'm not angry ".....even when your lexicon suggests otherwise. your energy is more chill/kumbaya and you seem to greatly dislike confrontation.
7: your demeanor is cheery, carefree and, once again, lacks conscientiousness. 6 fixers are more prone to plan for the worst and have a more urgent energy about them. apart from that, I can't see you as double reactive. your personality has a strong positive outlook leaning.
also, not Sx/So. probably Sp/Sx or Sx/Sp
tl;dr: probably 9w1>4w?>7w6 Sp/Sx or Sx/Sp

I'm still going with 451.
But I do have to say that I cannot tell as much between the 5 vs 6
In your posts I mostly just see 4 and 1
1 is everywhere even on your signature.
Sorry Ginkgo, I don't know you well enough to type you. The main thing to be sure of is your primary type. If you haven't figured that out for yourself, then it will be very difficult to figure out tritype. Once you have the primary type, then it's fairly easy to nail down the other two, mostly because they describe your visible personality, but not the deep aspects of your personality that are exemplified in the main type.
No worries, though this is surprising coming from a moderator. One would think that you guys have a decent storehouse of info that could neatly be interpreted to elucidate peoples' more defining features. And yeah, I'm a 4.
Just because you have a storehouse of info at your disposal doesn't necessarily mean you've been inclined to look at it.
147 – The Visionary Archetype
147
“I experience myself as being intensely idealistic and perfectionistic. I also experience a lot of internal tension from having both 7 and 1 in my tritype. Sometimes I allow myself to be bold, playful and uninhibited, and other times I feel very serious, reserved and self conscious. I'm still pretty optimistic for a 4 and I think the future can and certainly should be better than it is and that there's a way to get there. I find myself to be frustrated with present circumstances though.â€
Yeah, what you wrote above really echoes what Katherine has found with the 471. It is the most idealistic of all the tritypes having all 3 idealists. This is the type that is both diligent, creative and intuitive. She said the blindspot is that the identification with the high ideals can create a sense of being inflexible in standards and rigid. She also said this is the type most likely to alternate between being the life of the party and feeling inhibited and needing to be appropriate. The life mission is to bring visualize ways to create meaningful change and teach or inspire others toward higher values of excellence.
The 7 is what allows you to be bold (and the 4) but that 1 in there creates a stronger superego that likely says "you must be good, ethical, right, and appropriate" so there will be a clamping down of the spontaneous energy. With a 3 wing and social subtype I would imagine this person would be very productive and inclined to stay busy in order to avoid to inevitable emotional flood of the 4. With a 5 wing there might be more of an interest in academic or intellectual pursuits.

Oh Gingko...I'm so happy to have been invited to this party... and I brought margarita mix and an extra blender just like the invitation said...
But the fact I really have no idea what my own tritype is...(748 = a bit too hardcore and 749 = a bit too not hardcore) is usually enough to stop me from making any type of commentary on someone else's.
The bland exterior is mostly a facade, though for core 9s that bland feature should be more genuine.Is it that you guys withhold your true self... or do people just suspect that because you're authentically bland?

I might secretly hate everything a person represents, but I'd still be quite able to forget my visceral reactions and put on a calculated friendly vibe if I conclude that it's for the best.
[MENTION=5109]Glycerine[/MENTION] Do you relate?
yes. It is a facade. I usually have more of an ambivalence towards people so my interactions are a bit calculated. Ironically, eventually the person knows exactly what I think of them (criticisms, strengths, etc.) through bits and pieces over a long period of time. I am considered an odd mixture of reserved, blunt, and diplomatic.The bland exterior is mostly a facade, though for core 9s that bland feature should be more genuine.

I must consider the reactions objectively relevant + that the other person is willing to listen + that the risk of a reprimand is minimal + that something can be gained from it.Assuming you express more authentic reactions at one point or another, under what conditions do you do so?

Say a person comes to me and says he is thinking about comitting suicide. I'd be shocked for a split second, but then I'd calmly ask for more information.
Most people would react like "OMG, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, DON'T DO IT", but that doesn't look very efficient, as it would likely make the person feel guilty and misunderstood (which could easily backfire).
My typical reaction would be to freeze, say in a calm voice, "oh, I am sorry to hear that. Why is that? What's going on?" I am not quite so calculated as you. hahaI must consider the reactions objectively relevant + that the other person is willing to listen + that the risk of a reprimand is minimal + that something can be gained from it.
