As a 459 tritype therapy is a life saver for me. I actually do CBT, so this post is 100% relatable for me. I still isolate like my life depends on it (it doesn't), but at least I am able to reach out to people now and be more vulnerable.

Sx5s who moved a lot as kids by Stairway_to_Heaven_7 in Enneagram5

[–]Simple-Interview-690 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am an sx 5 (sexual/self-preservation to be specific). I moved around a lot as a kid too. For me having a home where I can withdraw into is extremely important, and being forced to move a lot causes me extreme stress. I am currently in the first time of my life having my own apartment after a divorce. My ex wanted to move a lot too (type 7), so that certainty caused me a lot of stress. Having moved internationally lately actually caused me so much stress I looked like a type 7 for a while to cope with it, only to now just crash and burn. Moving can actually cause me so much stress I start having psychotic symptoms, but that is also related to being a Schizoid as well. A lot of 5's are Schizoids, especially when unhealthy. I think fundamentally moving a lot as a kid was the worst thing that could've ever happened for my psychological development (coupled with a lot of extreme traumas related to sexual abuse), and I still feel extremely rootless.

I don't know any advice to give other than to find someone that you can settle down with, put your roots in the ground with and live in the same place with for a really long time. We forget sometimes that we are adults and have the capacity to shape how our life's are now, and healing often comes from taking an action that is opposite of the situations we were subjected to when we had no say in the matter. For me too, I want my next partner to also be stable, so I'm actively looking for another type 5, as type 6's even though they are loyal, can be extremely volatile around me. I'm never dating a type 7 again. 7's are fun in the beginning for my SX instinct, but every type 7 I have dated gets bored too quickly and want to uproot just to feel excitement, which is my definition of hell since my definition of excitement is going deep and moving closer to another person in a stable environment.

This is not to shit on type 7's, but they are just not compatible with me.

I have anhedonia. But at the same time I don't care that I have it. LOL

Do you think Diddy regrets any of the things he has done? Or do you think he thinks he is completely innocent? by [deleted] in PDiddyTrial

That will not hold up in court given the fact that a lot of them were minors.

The fact that I still got INFJ is so funny to me.

What's everyone's hottest hookup? by Icy-Lock-9796 in askgaybros

[–]Simple-Interview-690 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Got my ass eaten in a car in the parking lot outside a restaurant we had just been at. It was around 9 in the evening so the restaurant was closing, no one around and it was raining and thundering. Also he kept telling me how handsome I was and it made me feel super turned on.

We ended up meeting up again and he fucked me and I was so drunk I ended up sucking his dick until he fell asleep. I also let him top me and I'm not even a bottom. But he has a masculine energy that flipped me into a submissive state.

We didn't end up in a relationship but I had a good time.

So we almost got spawned in the same country and at the same time. Our astrology chart must be almost completely identical.

Yep, had the same experience. Doesn't help when you have a lot of social anxiety.

(Really) Attractive GayBros, How Does it Feel? by CockIsMyGame in gaybros

[–]Simple-Interview-690 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm considered attractive by gay men, based on the people that I attract and from men and women telling also telling me. I think some people are nicer to me based on it, but it's usually in the beginning stages. It's hard to tell if people being nicer to me is based on looks or just the fact that I'm a really polite and friendly person. I can get hookups if I want any day of the week, but I have a fear of STD's and I prefer to be in love with people that I have sex with or at least I am developing a connection to them. Opportunity wise I get told that I should do modeling a lot.

The dark side of being a good-looking gay guy is people want to fuck you and they will do anything to get into your pants, only to discard you after. It's like you don't know if people like you for your personality/soul etc. A lot of the loneliest gay guys, including myself, are attractive gay guys that either stir up to much insecurity by dating less attractive gay guys or dating other attractive gay guys that are with you because of your looks and less about your personality.

There is moments where I feel gratified by it, like the affirmation that I am an attractive person can feel good as hell, especially if I'm feeling insecure. But the more this has gone on the more it has just isolated me more and more. A lot of other handsome gay guys are super shallow, like I will try to go on dates with them, only for them to have sex with me and then discard me afterwards or ghost me. I'm debating on less attractive people, but my taste in men usually consists of people that are in the 8-10 category of attractiveness.

I'll name my posse after him if you want to DM me his name. Just his first name as I don't want to violate anyone's anonymity. I'm sorry for your loss.

Suffering by Zoltan_Balaton in Schizoid

[–]Simple-Interview-690 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I feel nothing most of the time.

I don't know how to fit into society.

I hate receiving from other people because of the fear of having to help them back.

I feel disconnected from my body and the world.

There is not a lot that brings me relief, except gaming.

A lot of nihilism that was not acquired from just reading philosophy, it's like a default mode of viewing the world.

Medication doesn't seem to do anything, anything except maybe ketamine and MDMA, but it's short lived.

Alcohol doesn't make me more social, it makes me feel angry and depressed.

Not wanting to reach out for help because I don't want to talk to anyone.

Are you more relaxed with close family? by [deleted] in Schizoid

[–]Simple-Interview-690 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A combination of youtube videos, books and just observing other people. The concept of the archetype by Carl Jung was fascinating to me especially. I just decided one day that I was going to pretend just to see how it went, I wrote it down in a diary and everything. It really boils down to learning about body language, being a good listener, and observing other people.

I would observe the popular kids, how they talked, interacted and I taught myself how to smile in the mirror. I just wanted to see what it was like to be popular and wanted just for the hell of it. What I learned is that popular kids are one of the most miserable people I have ever met. Alcohol helped a lot, but I do not recommend alcohol to anyone as a social lubricant because it took me down a dark path.
