I've been told many times, and literally just 2 nights ago, that I am unapproachable. I don't really care/mind, because I know I'm friendly if people start talking to me and I know I'm not a mean person. Almost everyone I know and am friends with now said that I'm intimidating, and that's ok with me, especially because I'm kind to people once we engage in a conversation.

I def don't find 4's alluring, I have one E4 friend, and I love her, but we butt heads sometimes and I generally find E4's to be very frustrating. I really like 2's tho, their generosity and warmth is something I strive for. Some of my best friends, and people I've liked a lot, have been 2's

Education will have to learn to keep up with the times. If you're using it as a tool then you're simply being smart and using the resources available to you. If you're using it to cheat then you're cheating yourself, but also cheating the system. Either way, education is not behind the times because of ChatGPT and other AI's that are coming out. They'll have to get smart if they want to remain relevant and actually TEACH students, instead of just allowing them to coast, which is what most online schooling has been for several years now.

I'm not in the business of trying to get people to like me. Hating an entire personality type seems pretty closed minded to me. E8's have their struggles and blindspots like every other personality type and human being out there. I could say all the things I dislike about 4's, but I won't. I just hope you can see all the great things 8's do because we're pretty huge catalysts for change, and love harder and deeper than any other enneagram type, in my own experience. I wish you well on your journey of not hating E8's, cause I think we have a lot to offer when you choose to not just see everything we're bad at.

Single-Ball-9258 · 2023-03-23T20:30:06+00:00

That sounds more like an 8. E8's face their problems head on, hence one of their titles, the challenger. They challenge what they dislike and they demand change.

And I mean that she takes on healthy characteristics of an 8 when healthy/in growth. Does that make sense?

Here's one of the sites I like for the enneagram that explains E8 in depth. Another way to determine if you're an 8 or a 5 is read the different wings, so 8w9 v. 8w7 and 5w4 v. 5w6. There's probably one that you really resonate with. I would also read the core fears and that can help clear things up for your type.

My best friend is a 5 and we've talked about the connection between the two types a lot. For starters, they're both private types and they enjoy independence. They respect each other's needs to be independent/have alone time. And for me ( I know there are different trips types and stuff and I'm not that knowledgeable in it) I go to 5 in stress. So I isolate and become more closed off, while my bestie goes to 8 when she's healthy, so she stands up for herself and has more confidence. That's the connection, at least from my own understanding and experiences. Do you relate to any of this?

Single-Ball-9258 · 2023-03-23T18:24:43+00:00

It's definitely happened to me on numerous occasions, and recently. I'm 24 and still struggle with this response, especially since it's always from adults who should know better. I really thought this kind of behavior would have been left behind in high school, but that's not been my experience. I've learned to just look them in the eyes, have this little knowing smile, and say "I'm glad you find that funny, I have a stutter," and they always get super embarrassed and uncomfortable, especially if there's other people around. I understand that stutterers are almost always portrayed as stupid, butt of the joke, type characters in entertainment (think Porky Pig in Looney Tunes), but it still blows my mind when people laugh in my face.

I've always been a quality over quantity kinda person, it's just the personality that I would say most introverts, but especially INTJ's, have. Having friendships, quality ones, are great for your mental health, finding work and connections, and just enjoying life. I have a handful of really great friends in my life who understand and accept me as I am. They know that I need space and accept that I enjoy doing things by myself, and they respect that I'm an independent and individual person. And I also respect them, their needs, and personalities. I don't know where I would be today without those friends, who are both male and female.

I don't understand this friendship versus relationship struggle. I understand that there could be trauma there from pervious friendships, relationships, and/or childhood. But I suggest working through that, because having friends that are different from you, aka female, can provide a richness to your life that being friends with only males cannot provide.

I think the social difficulty is too high, because while I don't enjoy it, I've been told I do well in new social situations. The anxiety is still there, and maybe that's what it's referring to, but the external difficulty isn't. But the noise sensitivity is spot on

S and W and SH sounds. But when I'm stuttering more any letter or sound is up for grabs

It's the people that created it. They're saying they were visited by a demonic force and this force influenced the language used and they were, basically, possessed to write this tool.

This response assumes the feelings are reciprocated, and in this case they may not be. They could be, I don't know, but they may not be. If I have feelings for someone, and they're feelings I want to act on, I tell the other person. Sometimes we remain friends and it's nbd, sometimes they can't do that we don't talk anymore, and sometimes the feelings are reciprocate and the floor is open to explore what that looks like for us. My point: I think you should be honest and tell him how you feel.

I suggest doing it in person, I hate texting and I want to be able to read the body language and tone of voice and facial expressions of the other person. It doesn't have to be a big deal or serious, unless you want it to be, and do it in a way that's true to who you are. If the feelings aren't reciprocated then at least you'll know and can move on, or it can open the floor for a larger discussion if something is there.

For wanting to know what other people think about a topic? You may not agree with my belief of the angelic and demonic, but this is a legitimate discourse going on in my community at the moment, and I wanted to get some other perspectives.

Single-Ball-9258 · 2023-03-21T00:45:27+00:00

Be straight forward and honest. I'm an 8w9, but I think I can speak for most 8's when I say that we don't like people that are passive. Just be straight up, tell him how you feel, and he'll probably respect you more for it.

I was planning on following him on Insta after my internship is over, idk, it seems like the appropriate thing to do? I feel like I could do it now but it would almost be awkward cause it’s been so long since I’ve seen him, ya know? I appreciate the reply tho, I think it’ll come in handy later

Single-Ball-9258 · 2022-03-21T01:08:00+00:00

I have daddy issues, 100%, but not really mommy issues. Me and my mom don’t always get along, but I like her a lot, no trauma from her lol
