I really don't know. Honestly, I've never felt the desire to learn much about it.
Oh, to find you in dreams - mixing prior, analog, and never-beens... facts slip and turn and change with little lucidity. except the strong, permeating reality of emotion.
edit: i apologize. this thread is actually looking at people's experience and thus actually looking at something quasi-real, and is not hypothetical theoretical blather.
I always test 7 or 9 on the eneagram. I think its more like 7 though.

The artifact which is the source of my power will not be kept on the Mountain of Despair beyond the River of Fire guarded by the Dragons of Eternity. It will be in my safe-deposit box. The same applies to the object which is my one weakness.

nice NEW thread CourageOriginally Posted by Courage
I have the books now, and the inspiration to write the thread now. There is no reason for me to really put if off. And I am posting here anyways. The difference is I am not posting compulsorily, which is nice.
Thank you for your efforts, however, BG.
(Is all of this an example of Te>Ti on my part?)
PS & nonsequiter to this post:
Reading the E books was good... it scared the mobos out of me and pointed out all my faults, as a 1. Hopefully its insights will allow me to go about things better. We will see.

I used to think I was 4w5, now I think maybe 2w1. I can see myself in both. . . I am a little confused still although I have been studying enneagram for 6 yrs.
I am sx/sp for sure. . .

I'm still sceptical about a Te-valuing or Te-adept 9. Their basic fear is of loss and separation. I think an SLI could do perfectly well without this. I think SLIs are, generally, 5w6s. Maybe 7s.
Possible Etypes for other Deltas:
LSE 1w9, 3, maybe 8
EII 1w2, 2w1, 4, 6, 9w1
IEE 6, 7w6
Based on my personal experience, I like LSE guys who are enneagram type 3.Originally Posted by Ezra
@ Courage: I'm a 4w5.
LSE - 1 3 6 8
EII - 1 2 5
IEE - 2 6 7 9
SLI - 4 5 9
Always been 7 6 or 5.
I'm thinking it's more towards 6w7 lately.
I am a 7w6

You seem to like a lot of in your LSE, very motherly figure-like - very close to ESE. Are you a heavy Ne subtype, Eunice?Originally Posted by eunice

An EII a 5; a type that seeks to detach itself from its feelings?Originally Posted by machintruc
I just got the Enneagram book a few months ago, the big one I guess. I've been making my way through it for a while. It's a lot to digest. That said, there is very little doubt that I am a 4w5. I paid careful attention to a few others, like 2 and 9, but neither of them really speak to my experience at all. 9s are too connected to others and lose identity, I'm the opposite, too much myself and it's hard for me to see how I am similar to other people in any way. I feel like an alien. I'm also too self-centered and lazy to be a 2. I'd rather create than help people, even though I like to claim that I love helping people, I generally spend as much time as possible away from them. I typically give myself exactly what I want in the moment, pleasure and comfort-seeking.
EII
4w5, sp/sx
If she's an SLI, that would naturally be her next port of call. Nonetheless, if she's tending towards 6w7, I highly doubt she'd be an LSE.Originally Posted by machintruc
But there are a lot of people who are convinced she is an SLE. Check her type thread from a few weeks ago.
E5 women frequently type as EII. I know at least two EII-5 girls.Originally Posted by Ezra
EII are almost as tough-minded as LII, so EII could still type as INTJ.
socionic Ethics is not myersian Feeling.
I said that because Sevens are as likely to be Introtims than Fours Extrotims. I know Introtims of all enneagram types, except E3 and E7.Originally Posted by Ezra
It's possible that she's not a Seven at all.
E5 may do as well, they have an E7 stress point.Originally Posted by Danielle
Yeah enneagram is pretty f-ed up as it points out motivations/ fixations you would rather not look at in yourself. . yikes!!!Originally Posted by Courage
What books are you reading?

I'm not talking about Myers-Briggs. I never even mentioned it. I'm talking about Enneagram 5 and Ethical types.Originally Posted by machintruc
Nonetheless, I s'pose you could have an EII 5w4.
In socionics, yes. But in MBTT, ISTP is one of the most common types for 7s.Originally Posted by machintruc
Let me point out that the only reason Jess thinks she's an ISTP is because she said that when she converted it from MBTT - in which she is an ISTP - it "fitted". She hasn't actually properly looked into socionics and the functions. A lot of people, like I said, think she's actually an SLE. And SLE is perfectly compatible with ISTP, if you read this description, for example. To be honest though, I think ISTP is more compatible with SEE.
They are rarity. I've never actually met any of them. An 8w7 LSE is more unlikely than an 8w9 LSE, simply because of the devalued Se in the LSE. 8w7s are far more likely to want to apply Se to a given situation. They can use their aggression. An 8w9 will often be much more gentle and kind than an 8w7, because they don't give as much shit about their Se. Think Vito Corleone (Don't know his socionics type, but he's an 8w9) Vs. Jake La Motta (SLE 8w7).Originally Posted by Christy B
Estp and Estj? There's absolutely no way. It's almost laughable people think that about me.
What's your description of E7 actually ?Originally Posted by Ezra
LSE is the second or third most frequent type for E8. They have strong too...Originally Posted by Ezra
I don't know anything really about all this enneagram stuff, but I took a test earlier and scored highest (and pretty much tied) on 2 and 5, with 9 very close behind. I agree with these being points of emphasis for me, but it didn't seem all that helpful to me.

I'm not sure about that, but I definitely appreciate Fe. I'm not an emotionally expressive person and I find it hard to facilitate my feelings eg. I don't know how to be angry and vent my frustrations, and when I'm happy and just acted matter-of-factly, others assume that I'm not enjoying myself. Sometimes I find it frustrating that I'm incapable of showing people exactly how I feel because it could lead to misunderstandings at times. As for preferring Type 3 over 1 and 8,Type 3s seem to be the most well-balanced among the three types. Among the people I have encountered, Type 1s are too dry and Type 8s are too aggressive. Moreover, Type 3s have better PR skills and I appreciate someone who can complement me in this area, considering that I'm a pretty straightforward person (basically wysiwyg).Originally Posted by JTDW

What do you mean what's my description of E7 'actually'?Originally Posted by machintruc
I mean, how do you describe E7 ?Originally Posted by Ezra
To be honest, I've been giving the whole INTp thing a lot of thought these last few weeks, and I think you've hit something squarely on the head. I haven't decided exactly what the case is yet, because it seems like the more I learn about all this, the less I seem to know. Kind of reminds me of something that Einstein said about our knowledge being a circle. The greater its circumference, the more obvious it becomes that things are still out of our reach. I wonder if I've made the classic mistake of putting elements of my super-id into my ego? Not to mention I'm just now starting to get a grasp on the information elements. Oh well, more food for thought.Originally Posted by dee

I don't think I'm Fe-creative. I can say with certainty that that isn't a valued function of mine, at best it might be my 7th function. I do tend to get along with most everyone I meet, but I've increasingly begun to wonder if I communicate that in real life, or whether or not that even represents Fe. I suppose what I'm getting at is that I want to like people and I see a lot of potential in them, but I honestly think that I keep my distance and my complete lack of social skills is leading me to believe that Fe is a weak function of mine. Then there are little pieces to the puzzle that throw me off as well, like how I fall in the renin dichotomies. It's just that lately I've noticed that I've made a lot of assumptions and misunderstood a lot of things that kind of require me to sit down and reevaluate. So, for the time being, I'm going to take a step back and withhold my judgement.Originally Posted by Diana
If I am INFj, I would definitely say I was an Ne subtype. I'm also keen to hear everyone's opinions, so thanks for offering yours.
Basically, I need to read, think, and reflect over everything. Kind of like this guy. This one reminds me of myself in a lot of ways.

fwiw, my mother is E-7 and INFj. I know there aren't a lot of E-7 introverts but she is one.

You're confusing E7 with E9 or E2. Some Nines or Twos may appear Seven-like as well.Originally Posted by redbaron
Or is she an INFJ-EIE, like ******, but E7 (****** was E2)
