You are a Type 6 with a 5 wing: "The Defender" *As I read the 6w5 description below. Troubleshooter in the sense of seeing where there is a communication breakdown and resolving to fix it/deal with it. I always believed in the saying "don't ever go to bed angry". Indeed. I can't sleep if there is unresolved conflict or if I feel we can't atleast still be respectful to one another. This would bother me more in a relationship context. I mean... hypothetically if partner a is fighting with partner b, for me It would give me great peace if we could still say "I love you, goodnight blah blah blah/ hehe" even while knee deep through working out the conflict no matter heated.
I remember as a kid I always needed to say to my mom and dad "I Love you" before going to bed/before they or I would leave anywhere. I didn't want them not knowing how much I loved them
. If i would happen to miss the chance to say it I'd be bothered by it.
Your tritype is 6w5, 9w1, 4w5.
(hmm... some of the answers I gave on the test do seem to indicate a 9ness. But couldn't that be a strong connection to 9 as a six? Though I guess I can see it... I definitely agree with the statement "I'd rather not be in a stressful situation at all, but if I have to be, I'd work to maintain my inner peace." Inner peace is a big thing with me. Quite possibly a 6w?-9-4 tri-fix. This is an excellent test and worded really well. I think it cut through it very concisely. (Maybe I'm a 6w5 but I always related to 6w7 and have assumed I've been in a more heavy W5 place the past few years. They worded these so well for Type 5 definitely resonated with this statement "I collect as much information as I can about it; after all, knowledge is power."
Yes... I get fearful so I perform my own little research. Understanding and having knowledge of something that I don't get, comforts me. Makes me feel "safe/prepared". That I have something to pull from and use to make it work. And yeah inner peace again in relation to why I so heavily study other people is I know when there is a lack of communication skills on my front I either say the wrong thing and cause inner strife/conflict *which I don't like
. But I won't back down from conflict either though. But I've been rather inefficient in dealing with conflict in the past but I've definitely gotten better and will continue to do so.)

In enneagram theory, you have one type for how you relate to the world (either 8, 9, or 1), one type for how you think (5, 6, 7) and one type for how you see yourself (2, 3, 4.) Your tri-type contains one number from each of these triads. They are listed in the order of how strongly they present in your personality.
Your core type (your strongest type) is Type 6 with a 5 wing: Type Six individuals are reliable, committed, and security-oriented. They are natural troubleshooters, and are always aware of potential problems. This makes the Type Six anxious, but the anxiety fuels them to resolve their problems. They can range from loyal to rebellious, depending on where they get their security from – if the security is from within, they can be very defiant… if it comes from others, they can be very cooperative and devoted. When a Type Six is in a growth state, they become calm like a Type Nine. When they are stressed, they can become arrogant like an unhealthy Type Three. You are a Type Six with a Five wing, which means that the committed nature of the Six combines with the cerebral nature of the Type Five. As a result, you often excel at concrete thinking and troubleshooting.
Your second type (your next strongest type) is Type 9 with a 1 wing: Nines are receptive, easygoing, and loveable. Out of all the types in the Enneagram, they have a special ability to get along with others. For this reason, they’re often skilled mediators, resolving conflicts both within themselves and among others. Nines value peace, especially inner peace, very highly. When in a state of growth, Nines become energetic and driven like Type Threes. When stressed, Nines become anxious like an unhealthy Type Six. You are a Type Nine with a One wing, which means that the harmonious traits of the Type Nine merge with the idealistic nature of the Type One. You have an idealized view of the world, and your drive toward harmony is one way to fulfill that dream.
Your third type (the least-used of the three) is Type 4 with a 5 wing: Type Four individuals are intensely emotionally aware, and often retreat to their rich inner world of concepts and ideas. They are the most artistic type in the Enneagram and driven to create their own, unique identity. Type Fours value authenticity highly and express themselves whenever they can. They are one of the most individualistic types in the Enneagram. Type Fours, when in a state of growth, become principled like Type Ones. When stressed, Type Fours can become clingy like an unhealthy Type Two. You are a Type Four with a Five wing, which means that the individualist nature of a Four combines with the cerebral nature of a Five to make you one of the most creative types in the Enneagram.
Some words that describe you: relaxed, peaceful, harmonious, creative, unique, authentic, emotional, loyal, reliable, anxious, skeptical.
Going to sit on this more. Seemed to bring a nineness to light. Hmm...
