Enneagram: What traits turn you off?

Post Reply New Topic

I would like to point out that...
1. All Enneagram types are equally good. No type is superior to or inferior to other types.
2. I no longer believe in the Enneagram 100% because every human is too complicated to be typed as "Type 1/Type 2/Type 3..."
3. The traits themselves aren't necessarily bad, just that I personally dislike these traits.

Enneagram Type 3
1. Want people to see them as winners
2. Very goal-oriented but not very relationship-oriented
3. Adapt quickly to any role that society expects them to take on
4. Flaunt talents and ambitions frequently and aggressively
5. Worry that vulnerabilities will be exposed

Enneagram Type 6
1. Want to fit in
2. Always seeking allies
3. Often test people to determine whether they are trustworthy
4. Fear anything that differs from the norm
5. Sometimes attack "outsiders"

It's an interesting test. I just tried it out. Apparently, I'm type 4. There's some truth in the description.

Type 4 seems extremely accurate for me; I think every introverted artist with a good degree of success is.

Oh, lovely. Here's my result.


You are most likely a type 4 or 6.

Taking wings into account, you seem to be a 4w5 or 6w5.

It is not clear from these test results which Enneagram type and wing you are.

To determine your true type, you might want to start by considering the types with the highest scores on the lists below. Also, there are many fine books and other websites that contain detailed descriptions of the types. Consulting these might give you the information you need to determine your true type. As knowing your Enneagram type involves self-knowledge, you might want to observe and analyze your behavior and motivations. You might also benefit from taking the test again later.

noxnocturne, how long windedly uninformative...have you figured out if its a 4 or a 6?

I have no idea. Perhaps I should take a different test.

Apparently, I'm a Type 1 on this test. It was 180 questions long and much more detailed, so I'm going to go with this one.
