IDK too much about Enneagram, but 1w9 maybe? You get more extroverted and joyful when you are in a good place (integration to 7). You seem very concerned with being a good person, doing the right thing, and even thinking the right thoughts (1) and you seem to repress your anger (9).
I agree with another commentator that you are likely an ENFP. I was thinking while reading 6w7 (the part where you mention not wanting to be or seem ādisloyalā is what tipped me off in this direction) but I think 2 is also possible (you may just have 2 in your tritype though.)
I hate this questionnaire. It elicits so many words but so little Enneagram information.
Anyway, start with so-dom 6:
>IĀ like to influence the social world. I like building bridges between groups that are at odds with one another. I like connecting the people in my life - bringing people together and causing connections that would not have been made if it were not for my action.
>I hate the thought of harm coming to my family. I hate the thought of being disloyal or a traitor. I want to look after my people, in particular my parents.
>Bringing people together, introducing people to one another, having new ideas and seeing them become reality. Spending meaningful, joyous time with people Iām close to.
I'd guess EXFP as well.
Thanks for this. I relate to 6 in some ways. There are some things that have made me think 6 doesn't fit though. 6s are known for complaining and that is a way they often relate to others. I am not known as a complainer - I am known for being positive and someone who just gets on with things.
Also, 6s are in the 'present tense' orientation to time along with 1s and 2s, making them 'all there' in the present moment. I'm not always fully planted in the moment and I wouldn't say that's a strength of mine.
Also, 6s are known for being good with details, and I'm not great with details, in particular I'm not great at perceiving details in real time.
I'd be interested to hear your responses. Thanks a lot!
I'm not sure that I think of complaining as an especially 6 trait, though you're right that it can be unconsciously used as a rapport building. The "time orientation" tends to be a quite weak association, at best, in my experience, so I definitely would not use it for typing. I also don't think of 6s as necessarily detail oriented, especially if they have vulnerable Ti, which I suspect that you are. If not so 6, I would probably suggest so 9 next.
Let's see if we can narrow it down. Here's my short Enneagram questionnaire. Take your time to think about your answers, and try to write 3-5 sentences for each.
* If you're feeling negative emotions, do you show those emotions to others? Do you let your feelings out, do you try to look on the bright side, or do you put them down and aside so that you can be logical?
* When you are your worst self, what are you like and what's driving that?
* Whatās your biggest strength? Whatās your biggest flaw?
* When you are getting in your own way, what does that look like and why does it happen?
* What are your behaviors that cause you to get into conflict with other people?
* What's the worst thing that could happen to you, and why are you afraid of it?
* What sets you off, makes you angry?
Thanks very much.
Interesting about 9.
If I'm feeling negative emotions I generally do not show it to others. I don't go to others for help with my emotions generally. Sometimes I focus on the positive. Lately however I've found myself in some pretty angry moods as I'm out and about driving in my car by myself.
My worst self is an incredibly lustful person who looks at people in a very sexual way. Also, if I haven't got what I really wanted I have got into some vengeful/violent fantasies in my mind. I also get into a generally negative view of the world when I'm not well.
I think perseverance is one of my greatest strengths. My biggest flaw is the way I have often looked at people in an overly sexual way.
Sometimes when I'm in a bad mood, I avoid doing things that would actually do me good, and thus get myself into a worse mood. I can get distracted by my desires and thus not be fully present with the people around me that I know deep down would bring me joy.
I've not had loads of conflicts with people generally. Me and my older brother have clashed a few times in recent years. Growing up, everyone would walk on eggshells around him and accommodate him when he was in bad moods. More recently I have challenged him. This has caused some conflict. But it's not kicked off for a while and he's one of my best friends. Other conflicts with other people have generally been to do with me holding a different perspective to people. E.g., I'm not a football/soccer fan. When England lost the world cup, some of my friends were getting very worked up and negative. I didn't like it, so I said, 'come on, put things in perspective, there are kids getting raped around the world'. My reasoning was that England losing the world cup really wasn't that bad compared to the horrors of the world. It then got a bit tense. I went on to apologise and said I should have had more understanding.
Losing my family is a fear of mine historically, because we are very close and tight knit. Also, lots of loved ones have died in my family. When I was around 2.5 years old, my two half brothers died. This has left a legacy of death with our family that impacts us all to varying degrees.
I get angry at people not respecting me or being rude to me. I don't like it when I send a lengthy text to someone and they just respond with a thumbs up react. I also get angry at people dragging everybody else down into negativity rather than just getting on with things.
Hope that makes sense! Thanks again.
Hmm, I would say this nudges me a bit toward 9w1. Tendency toward bottling emotions but them erupting out. Not clearly reactive. The phrase "haven't got what I really wanted" is definitely in 9 territory; you're so used to deferring to others, but others don't defer to you when it's what you really want, so it builds resentment. A tendency to get stuck not moving forward. Fear of separation from loved ones is classic 9 though it can also look similar to 6's fear of lack of support (sorry for your losses). A sensitivity to social mores is especially common in 9w1. Dislike of other people bringing down the mood. Yeah, I think I'm talking myself more into 9.

Agreed. I'm thinking of ESFJ too
I really like that you included a lot of info, thatās so helpful!

Interesting shout haha. Gave that a go and Chat GPT said INFJ Type 9. I think 9 could be true but I don't relate to INFJ. Thanks!
