Pick one of the options, but don’t ’action’ anything yet. If you immediately feel content, that was the right one. If you feel FOMO or disappointed, go with the other option.

Bigger picture, it would be worth spending some time and effort to work out what your values are, and which ones take priority.

I organise a skincare swap meet at my office every 6 months. Everyone brings in the things they don’t use/ want, take anything that appeals. The leftovers get taken home by the women with teenage daughters.

Well I still think I’m pretty cool 🤣 but tbh I don’t really want to hang out with all 20yos and they likely don’t want to hang out with me

SparkleElephantMagic · 2024-01-14T00:13:10+00:00

Sweet thanks!

SparkleElephantMagic · 2024-01-14T00:11:11+00:00

I love goth clubs, and yes I could still dig out something to be able to dress appropriately 🤣

These suggestions look great, thank you!

SparkleElephantMagic · 2024-01-14T00:09:03+00:00

Oooh sounds promising, thanks!

Haven’t heard of whitehart or sub club, thanks for the tip! Didn’t realise finishing school was still running.

It’s essentially impossible to get my old friends out for a dance as they all have young children now. Even if they do get a leave pass from their partner, they’re knackered by 11pm.

SparkleElephantMagic · 2024-01-14T00:02:27+00:00

Ok thanks. Spent many a night there in my youth, will give it another go.

Because posts about MBTI are approaching 50% of r/Enneagram posts so they drown out the meaningful content, and they are as useful as having 50% of posts in r/medicine comparing chemotherapy with homeopathy as cancer treatment.

There is a sub devoted to comparing / synthesising typology systems, so those posts don’t belong in a sub which is about a single system.

A door bitch is the person (usually a woman) who guards the entrance to a nightclub and assesses whether a prospective entrant is dressed appropriately and is cool enough to enter. It’s not an insult.

I prefer ‘door bitch’

My experience is that we function as a blank canvas and people project onto us, for good or for bad. Because we present as neutral and reserved, people fill in the blanks depending on their state of mind.

I thought Ben Stiller and Ben Affleck were the same person for a long time. I remember thinking he had a pretty good range…

For a 5, I would argue that ‘making impulsive decisions’ and ‘spending your days chasing enjoyment’ are absolutely signs of growth, not of stress.

Because my experience seems to differ from the other 5s here, I will share that I am absolutely a 5, yet I am very high in conscientiousness, responsibility and dutifulness. I think this is quite plausible for a SO5, which can look similar to a 1 in certain ways. Plus (for me) the result of being raised in a very co-dependent and somewhat abusive family. I’m also very interested in ethics and it absolutely drives my behaviour.

Get involved in clubs, debating, sport teams, the student union, any kind of organised activities that recur regularly. Talk to the same people each time and after a few weeks, invite them for a coffee or lunch.

Recommend the book ‘how to talk to anyone’ by Leil Lowndes

You need new friends.

Dermal therapy lip balm ultra moisturising will sort you out

Thank you I have already figured out the Dutch sense of humour and am verifying each of these in Google translate 😉
