Most and least preferred enneagram types

[lavos]

Feel free to state why, but it's not mandatory.

My favorite enneagram types are 2's, 4's, 5's, and 8's, but 8's only from a distance. I don't like close interaction with them.

I dislike the most 7w6's, and (some) 9w8's. 6w5's I don't dislike per se, but I tend to run into trouble with them. 3w2's and 1w9's are sometimes pretty shitty too.

For romance. there is a strong correlation between instinctual stacking and compatibility. I am primarily attracted to other SX-firsts and can clash badly with SX-lasts. This holds true regardless of the Enneagram type combination.

With that being said, it is also undeniable that some combinations offer far more potential for love than others do. The most compatible types for 4s seem to be 8s and 9s, and there is also some reason to suppose that one's sex has an influence: at least from the data collected at 9types, while female 8s are drawn to male 4s, male 9s are drawn to female 4s.

I dislike 2w3s and 3w2s, too fake to be friends with, too competitive and attention-seeking.
I like 9s- they're really chill, I find 8s and 4s intoxicating, and I loveee 7s for their love of fun and pleasure

Enneagram matchmaking, based on http://9types.com/writeup/enneagram_relationships.php:

(In all cases, you are much more likely to enjoy a partner with the same primary instinct (So, Sp, or Sx) as yourself.)

Female 1 = 2, 5, 7
Female 2 = 4, 6, 8
Female 3 = 1
Female 4 = 2, 9
Female 5 = 1
Female 6 = 3, 8
Female 7 = 1
Female 8 = 4, 9
Female 9 = 3, 6
Male 1 = 3, 5, 7
Male 2 = 4, 6
Male 3 = 6, 9
Male 4 = 2, 8
Male 5 = 1
Male 6 = 2, 9
Male 7 = 1
Male 8 = 2, 6
Male 9 = 4, 8

Particularly harmonious relationship combinations appear to be:
Female 5, Male 1
Female 8, Male 4
Female 8, Male 9
...as these are over two standard deviations more common than chance.

I like 1s, 5s, 7s, 9s
8w7 are good but also dangerous - better from a distance or in a big group

[Aramas]

I like 2s, 7s, 8s, 5s, 9s.
I don't like 1s, 3s, 4s.
I don't feel anything in particular about 6s. Maybe I lean toward dislike if they are crazy.

Keep in mind that this is for romantic compatibility.

4s are okay as friends.

And yeah, @FDG, 8s are that food that is bad for me, but I keep coming back. Lol

Preferred for what is the question, there are several types of interactions I want to differentiate here:

For romance: 2 (my unchallenged favorites), 5
For close friendship: phobic 6, 9
For acquaintance: 8 (to handle with extreme caution), 7, 4
For working together: 3, 5
For sexual relations: 7, 2, 9
For leisure: 7, 9, 2
For, uh, nothing - full shade intended: 1

I don't enneatype many people, when I look back I see a slight pattern of relationships of all kinds with 6s and 9s but this might just be because they're the most common types.

Also a pattern of fascination (and some disillusionment) with 5s and frustration with 2s.

I am strongly attracted to the powerful, earthy sexuality of core 8s, and this feeling tends to be mutual; being unafraid of intensity, they often enjoy (unlike the other types, it seems) unraveling the mystery of a 4's passion. I respect people who can be cold-blooded, logical and utterly ruthless at taking what they want, and in a healthy individual, these traits will be balanced by fidelity and generosity. Therefore, women who are straightforward, determined, logically coherent, focused not scattered and physically demonstrative will impress me.

9s who are 8-fixed can bond with me along a similar arc as the core 8s, but due to social expectations around courtship, women of these types haven't persisted long enough to see beyond the mask (female 4s would have more luck with them, I think). To provide some contrast, cp6s are my problem type, especially if they are also 1-fixed. Such people tend to be both moralistic and paranoid; they are loose cannons, snowflakes who will lash out if you inadvertently trigger them over trivia. Not good!

So yeah,
9w8s = serene and tolerant, yet tough as nails, possibly a bit on the shy side though
8w9s = best soulmates, zero drama and lots of action, we're made for each other really
8w7s = would be so much fun nailing them in bed, as long as they can stay focused
Any 6s = one bogus sexual harassment lawsuit coming up
Other types = meh
