Which other MBTI type do you feel more closely pulled to in terms of similarity to yourself? Please list your MBTI type and Enneagram type!

I'm curious if there will be an overlap of Enneagrams even though the MBTI types will differ.


For instance, I am ISTP 7w8. The one type I feel is most similar to me is ESTP.

I'm a 9w8. I feel closest to ISTP.

Jock, if you feel close to ISTP you're probably a 5w6. I get that vibe from you. Maybe you should look into it? Or do you just relate to both equally?

INTP, 5w4 sx (crazy heavy 4). Closest to INFP, ISFP, and ISTP. That's right, all the IXXPs!

I'm INFJ, 1w2. Sometimes this can make me appear ENFJish, depending on the environment. I don't feel ENFJish though...

i think i feel closest to ENTP, even though i don't relate to the ENTP description, i seem to behave more like them than i do other similar types.
INFPs and INTJs are too serious. i guess if it's not ENTP, it's ISTP.

ENFJ 3w2.
I usually feel closest to an INFJ, ESTJ, or occasionally an ENFP. I think mostly an ESTJ even though I (nor anyone else) would confuse me for one! The ESTJs I know and I just seem to have a weird thought connection.

My type: INTJ; 1w9; So/Sx :)

Other MB type similarity: INFPs, ENTJs and ISTJs. Funny enough, I eventually learned that they all turned out to be enneagram ones, or 9w1s in the INFP's case.

Then, it's followed by the INFJs (mostly 5w4s) and ISTPs (with some variation of 5s, 6s, & 7s).

Ah! I just noticed that I mentioned all the chart-the-course types, if this impacts anything.
