Your enneagram type

[Mae]

I can see that, from what you choose to reveal about yourself on the forum. I didn't like my instinctual score on that test, and treat that part of it with a grain of salt. Oceans-moonshine.net has Instinctual descriptions, not tests, and they are very extremely awesome. Don't you seem to yourself a little more on the Sx side?

Possibly. It's difficult to tell, though. I can be quite self-absorbed.

M. Dearest. I just noticed this bit. Two things, 1 - you should never use blanket apologies, they make people seem indecisive and weak, you appear to be neither. 2 - I take very little offense at anything, especially on the internet, hurt feelings would make me seem indecisive and weak, I try to appear to be neither.

Seems I am just "a beautiful or unique snowflake" ...shudder.

lol, ok...You're definitely IxTJ, that much I know for sure!

I will continue reading, thanks for your help and time. I am glad I joined the forum.


"...trolling madly on the Internet" that got a good chuckle out of me (well, more of a smirk).

No good deed goes unpunished!

Sorry, but that's not an instinctual trait of the type 5. I searched the stackings page of the type 5 and that one wasn't listed there.

What, self-absorbed? No, what I meant was that I may be sx dom - I'm seeing that now that I'm in a good relationship - but it's difficult to tell as I was very socially isolated for a long time and still am to an extent and it's been all about me and just making it through the day.

In that case, I would have to say the Sp was correct. However, I suspect that the test always gives a type 5 an Sp. I think you have Sx second.

-Self-pres/Sexual


This subtype, like the self-pres/social, is more typical of the depictions of type Five. The self-preservational instinct accentuates the self-contained, withdrawing tendencies of the Five. Fives of this subtype love their time alone with a passion, and pursue it more actively even than the other subtype of self-pres Five, although with the sexual instinct second, they often want to find time for intimates as well. On the down side, they have more disdain for people and little use for the social aspects of life. They want to be left alone or they want to share their inner world with their intimates. The intensity of the sexual instinct is reserved for their intimates and even there it is sporadic. The self-pres energy gives this subtype a solid foundation and some degree of practicality.

These Fives are conflicted when it comes to experiencing and expressing emotions. They usually default to emotional repression and to detached intellectual analysis. This is a dynamic common to all Fives, but with the self-pres/sexual instinctual stacking, the balance of these forces is pretty precarious and it seems as though the scales are being constantly adjusted one way or another. As the social instinct is the least developed, the social arena gets the drier more intellectual approach almost by default.-

9w8 sx/sp

I'm not sure its a standard ISTP answer. Maybe we are supposed to be 7s. I'm not really sure 9 covers my personality adequately. It covers parts of it definitely.... but i feel like the MBTI typings are more accurate to me.

[lauranna]

actually i have changed my mind i think i may be sx/so.
hmmmm
