[@randyschroeder2210]

I’ve been told everyone has a little of each type, but the goal is to find the closest match. It might make sense to dig into a book with details. When I did, I read one number until it didn’t feel like me anymore. Then move on to the next type, until you find the closest to you. Also, we’re all basically one number, with a “leaning” to the numbers on each side. For example, I’m a 7, but have a leaning to 6, and sometimes an 8, depending on the situation. I hope this heals?

I'm a type 8.

It took me far too long to realize the irony of my intentions. PS. I personally prefer Enneagram to MBTI. I like how it mainly focuses on fear and desire, two of life's biggest motivators. I think it to be a better guide for life in this way. If you understand that which motivates you, you'll know how to rule your own life. (At least, that's my opinion on the matter.)

Ive always been extremely confused with enneagrams because it just doesn't seem to add up, i took a first test and got type six but that was nothing like me then i took a different one and got type three and again a different one and got type four, it literally messed with my brain cause none of it actually sounded like me or how i view things so i just came to the silly conclusion that 'i dont have an enneagram' but i actually learned more about it and its wings and finally concluded that im a 4w5, it might seem a bit confusing to some at first but thats why you need to dive in cause you cant just search once about something and just assume you know it all, and its actually great to learn that its normal to be confused about something like this

Also 8s are said to turn into 2s when happy (when I'm happy I'm more of an ENFP style but also like gifting others and doting on them) and into 5s when stressed (massive overthinking and analyzing).

I think I'm a 9/peacemaker, I found myself agreeing (laughing) to every peacemaker part you did. I used to be a major peacemaker when I was a child and I think that was derived from my parents they were thinking of seperating (maybe this is the INFP side of being this sensitive?) Their divorce never happened because I was able to communicate my mother and try to get her to see things his way (and his reactions to her actions, visa versa). They eventually re-created their bond with each other (something they did on their own) and are still together to this day. As I got older, I hate seeing best friends/couples argue and break up over trite things. Hearing about normal people divorcing makes me cringe even though that may be the healthiest choice for them. I became interested in abusive conflicts, which carried over into my degree choice (veternary forensics covers animal neglect & abuse) and in my fantasy books when I switched to being a writer, but I don't know if that is an attritube of the peacemaker. I do go with the flow, but my INFP side creates a moral standard that I don't cross, but I try not to interject and tell people what to do with their lives (unless they asked for help). That being said, I wonder.... Is the enneagram number an umbrella of expected MBTI types? Or does each MBTI have flavors/subtypes that are the nine enneagram types? I find that the MBTI is how you react to/strive towards stimuli (such as social interactions) and the enneagram is how you solve the perceived problem.
