I'm now waiting for someone to say I'm not SLI.

The result is that sometimes I can be overly impersonal or self-centered in my approach, not being understanding of others in the process and simply thinking "you should do this" or "everyone should follor this rule"..."regardless of how they feel or where they're coming from"which just isn't a good attitude to have. It is a way, though, to give oneself an artificial sense of self-justification. LSE

Well, if I had to rate both types it would be E5>SLI in that case, because my Enneagram type closely describes approaches and views which are deeply rooted in my personality whereas I can find some things which aren't obviously correct in common SLI descriptions (but still, it's the most accurate Socionics type for me).

Come to think of it, I really like Gilly... despite his occasionally obnoxious temperament, which is quite easy to tolerate/handle once you get to know him a little better.

Is this a poll? I'm more than likely 9w1, if it is. Those who a) know the Enneagram plus b) have met me in person plus c) have talked to me about it have agreed. Granted, that's a grand total of two people so far, but still...
I've read through some of the Enneagram stuff, but not nearly enough to consider myself anything of a source on the subject.
This reminds me how much I love how complex and diverse people are. No matter the map, the actual terrain is so much richer.
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.
As we reach for the stars, we must put away childish things; gods, spirits and other phantasms of the brain. Reality is cruel and unforgiving, yet we must steel ourselves and secure the survival of our race through the unflinching pursuit of science and technology.

Any guesses on my enneagram type?
Enneagram: 9w1 6w5 2w3 so/sx
So, does everyone unanimously agree I'm LSI now?

I think you could be a 3 because one of the descriptions used the word "workaholism". If you disagree, it means I don't know you very well, or maybe that I don't know the enneagram very well. Perhaps. I feel that my opinions about you cannot compare to your own opinions about yourself. If WorkaholicsAnon has any ideas about her enneatype, please let me know.
oh, well i would describe myself as a workaholic only when forced to be one, but otherwise seeking ways to slack and relax..That's why i named myself workaholicsanon i.e. Workaholics Anonymous, i.e. a recovering workaholic
I dont want people going by keywords or terms that ring a bell of some sort, i want people to go by gestalt.
I'm not really too well versed in enneagram, so i'm not really sure what enneatype I am... that's why i wondered what impression others got... especially those who have delved into enneagram more than i have.

You expect to trust people's typings of you?
It's good that you mention how you are more naturally a person pleaser. The evidence that only you can supply is the only way to help type you. Therefore, do not be offended when we mischaracterize and misunderstand you, or when we seem flimsy and grasping. It can only be unlikely for us to know you well, and our disagreements give us more to work with.
Kim's diagnosis of 9 makes some sense, perhaps with an 8 wing. A 3 would perhaps succeed on his own forceful hubris, while you might rather want only to satisfy the people around you. The 8 wing could then maybe represent your willpower and stamina. I don't really sense any reforming 1-ish nature in you, but I would want more of your own opinion.
Dude, I don't know why you haven't read enneagram. I EXPECT you to read enneagram. You don't need very much background to help us discuss your possible type.
