I read the description, they say we are the best at everything we do. Even my momma thinks that, and my school teacher, both elementary and high school.

What do you think? What s the truth about type 3?

No, I'm better than you at some things. Some of those things include typology, World of Warcraft and sassing people out.

As a fellow Three, I need to give you a reality check.

Yes, yes it does. It does mean that.

And green is the best color, since it's my favorite, and so you even have that down pat.

We cannot be friends. I hate the color green.

Well, two Threes in this thread like green. The cool and right thing to do, the thing that will get you the external validation you seek, then, is to like green.

No, I'm 3w4. I stand out by being different. I like purple. Jelly beans too.

... God damn it that means that as a 3w4 I have to stand out too. People would question my type and subject me to scrutiny.

Also "standing out by being different" is totally the 3w4 mantra, motto, core essence, isn't it?

Please revoke your 3w4 typing right now.

This is exactly the sort of negative feedback that I, as a Three, avoid like the plague. I need more "yes men" gdi

OP, can you validate me?

Yes, this is clearly how the enneagram system works.
