Enneagram Type 4: Key Personality Traits

[@Rob_D_144]

Hey Man, I'm an ENFP, 5W4, I super appreciate the explanation of this as it does (to a large degree) help me distinguish better between my enneagram and that of my friend, the 4w5... we worked together in construction and other volunteer work environments and he was incredibly creative, and I normally am the one getting the creative inventive compliments but he was at another level of speed, almost as if he was competing with me in that regard. I didn't mind his competitive/elitist sort of disposition as long as there was a good solution. I did wonder why it mattered to him in the ways that it did. This again fills in another pixel in the panoramic so to speak. Thank you.

Great description as well as jokes!:) I appreciate your sense of humour and commitment to sharing enneagram info so professionally. I have enjoyed so much watching several videos today, compatibility section is amazing as well.

Can a 4 be uninterested how they are dressed and wear simple things? Because they want to be unique and focus on inner beauty?

[@YouveGotaType]

For sure. Especially self-preservation 4s.

[@KathBorup]

I'm so unique and special just like the other 4s 😂😉

I relate with so much about the 4 but I don’t often like to talk about my suffering or even admit that I’m suffering a lot of the time. I might express my mood in the way I dress or in subtle ways hoping maybe someone will notice but I don’t like the poor me whiny thing. I tend to act like I’m fine. 🤔

Sounds more like a Type 6 Loyalist. They mistype as 4s a lot in stressful seasons. This would be worth a watch: kzbin.info/www/bejne/g6OTopWBqtOLoqs

@@YouveGotaType in what way did you get a 6 vibe from what I said? That is another type I have considered outside of 4 btw.

@@YouveGotaType I actually don’t relate much with feeling the need to be responsible and do what’s expected of me to gain security as that video describes. If anything that makes me feel boxed in and I can feel very opposed to social expectations. I hate the idea of having to conform to outside standards. I’d rather be around those who just accept me for who I am. I can make it a point to remove myself from those who don’t make me feel that way.
