Your description of yourself rather reminded me of an LSI (esp. the "I seem like a jock but am also secretly a nerd"-part. Most Beta STs, esp. LSI, relate to this. Maybe @Myst can give her own perspective on this, and how she figured out she was LSI and not SLI.)
Just a heads-up to make sure you don't settle on a possibly wrong type too quickly.
Good idea would be for you to reach clarity in regards to Beta vs Delta, find out which Quadra feels familiar.
Also, whether you "like"/enjoy Fe or Ne more, especially in other people.
E9 could be about right, but check up on 6w7 to make sure this is not your type, for it is another possibility.
SO blindspot is rather likely.
Hi, SisOfNight. I might have to do a type me thread after all.
LSI might make some sense, even if I don't relate much to the stereotype of LSIs being orderly and like robotic in the pursuit of their goals. I relate more to the lazy slob stereotype of SLI. In all seriousness, I'm far more easy going and I don't feel weighed down by anxiety, so I don't see any E6 traits in myself. LSI didn't sound particularly weighed down by anxiety either or at least they focused it in a constructive way, instead of trying to avoid it by different methods.
I've done more research on the Enneagram so far. I have a few books and have started trying to type people I know. I have more confidence in my E9 type than the others, but I'm still learning how the different instictual variants reveal themselves in people of the same type.
On the differences between the 359 and 369 tritypes I relate to the 359.

Thanks for the advice on looking into Beta vs. Delta. I'll read up on them.
