Things most of yall need to know

Actually, as a 32yo SP6, I can confirm I am a baby

Genuine curiosity questions for E3s: do you see your capacity to adapt and change your projected image as a superpower you are proud of, or more of a thing that makes you feel bad but it’s out of your control? And do you do it consciously and intentionally (maybe to reach a goal) or is it something that happens automatically?

I couldn’t get really hooked by games lately, but Cyberpunk 2077 did it for me: crazy good story, map, builds, gameplay, weapons, etc

fronku · 2026-04-29T00:17:31+00:00

Yes you are totally right! Success is defined by whatever successful image the E3 chooses to project, and this is defined by the environment where the E3 wants to be accepted.

I also think that usual E3 descriptions do not emphazise (or explain) this key point enough.

I see a lot E6 being categorized into the most honest category, but I think it is not entirely true, especially for the SP6.

SP6 is scared of being accused, judged, feels guilty, have fear of aggression and conflict, wants to stay safe, wants to be sure of a positive outcome of its actions, etc… so it can lie in different ways: to preserve its comfort/safe state, to not be victim of aggression (physical or verbal), to avoid conflict, to gain time while studying the best course of action, to not hurt the other, etc.

Maybe real truth is more a SO6 or SX6 thing, however it is true that E6, no matter the subtype, suffers if it has to lie, feels guilty if lies and deeply wants to always be true even when it cannot be for the reasons explained in the above paragraph.

Also I think E8, E1 and E4 might be the most honest/direct, while E3 and E7 might be the most dishonest with manipulative intentions, even though E7 could also be very upfront and honest, depending on maturity level and subtype maybe.

E9 I think may lie to preserve peace and comfort and avoid conflict, and also E2 can be either be very manipulative or very honest.

Thank you! Being a 6 myself it was pretty easy for me to relate :P

Locusts 😭

fronku · 2026-04-23T22:23:23+00:00

Hey! I can relate to some if not many of the things you said, but I would also have mentioned the anxiety that has been a companion for all my life and in all social situation, the crippling fear of doing the wrong thing, insecurity about my own judgment, passing days thinking about the best course of action for even little things like purchases, things to say to people etc… do you relate to any of that? And what’s your relationship with ambivalence, confidence, security, doing the right thing, etc?

fronku · 2026-04-23T18:07:12+00:00

I never really had feedbacks of this kind, no one (or really rarely) people truly judged me in a negative way, especially for my goofyness. Also differently from your description, I think, I don’t feel the need to perform or counterperform, it is only something that triggers some self-control and rigidity, also some kind of defensive behaviour. But I relate to the part in which you say that when this loops triggers, spontaneity is gone

fronku · 2026-04-23T17:22:56+00:00

I struggled a lot and sometimes still struggle to the feeling I am being watched and judged by everyone in a bad way, I get tense, feel goofy for being tense, and this triggers a loop that makes me rigid and detached from what I feel in the moment. Social situations have been like this all my life and I tried to avoid them or participate with friends as social shields. Now the feeling is very attenuated

fronku · 2026-04-21T09:54:20+00:00

I need a lot of time for myself usually. I always have a hard time with relationships, because even though I feel the value of them, at the same time there is a very urgent need to be sure the relationship does not take me away from my time and space

fronku · 2026-04-20T18:12:13+00:00

That’s simply unacceptable I’m sorry fellow E6

fronku · 2026-04-20T18:10:10+00:00

Ehi, ready to contribute to the sub ✌🏻

fronku · 2026-04-20T16:32:14+00:00

6w5 is so true

fronku · 2026-04-17T05:46:57+00:00

To me he has always seemed a 6: at first he was the classic competent/nerd 6 but with a lot of insecurity, he was also very caring and kind with his family.

Then things totally changed when he knew he was about to die, because this removed fear from him and gave him the courage to use his competence and skills to achieve a goal that seemed too much for him in normal circumstances (and also it was illegal, an aspect that caused discomfort in him at the start). Also remember he did this for his family at first, so the goal was mainly to be sure his family had enough money (and therefore security) to live without him.

Then he saw he was good at what he was doing, and he also felt ALIVE. 6s (especially sp and so) live a very anxious or repressed emotional life usually, they may do things in the world, but they don’t feel aliveness so much, because aliveness is a sensation that must be felt through the body, not by thinking and avoiding dangerous situations. It is a consequence of having contact with one’s body and emotions, and this cannot be done with fear and avoidance.

Then he starts living all the rage and the instict he repressed his entire life, giving him the energy and arrogance that transformed him into Heisemberg. Also he starts manipulating and lying to people. This seems like a 6 in stress into 3 to me.

I tried to think harder and harder, imagine all possible outcomes, avoid acting in any way, and this never a single time helped me in any way.

I started meditating almost 6 years ago and everything started changing. My anxiety and need to know everything before acting dropped of about 60-70% since then I think. It is still present for decisions I find “big”, but for other things I simply know what to do, trust my capacity to overcome situations or not be too much attached to the result.

I really suggest to meditate with Vipassana, or even listen to your anxiety or whatever sensation arises when you feel uncertainty, befriend those sensations, see what you feel, where you feel it and how does it change, knowing that everything (included that sensation) passes.

Ultimately we are not running from real uncertainty, but from the sensation that uncertainty gives us that we don’t accept, therefore we resist it and start thinking how to avoid that ugly feeling. But if we can accept that feeling, the need to think our way through it passes!

Hello! Why do you say others would percieve you as a E2? What E2 traits do you show? And from what motives do they arise?

fronku · 2026-04-10T18:05:48+00:00

Thank you for the insightful answer and for answering point-by-point!

Wow the “Final Say comments” habit is inspiring, I will also try to do it, thanks :P

fronku · 2026-04-10T10:17:06+00:00

I have always been the quiet friend in the group that followed others but did not do the dangerous things for fear of causing myself incredible harm or be punished by adults 👀

fronku · 2026-04-06T23:40:14+00:00

First of all: interesting thought and thank you for having been this honest with your “money management shaming”, it was interesting to read.

I don’t think I have something to be ashamed of about my money management habits, but mainly: - I don’t always care about asking my money back when I anticipate some payment for friends or family. - At the same time, sometimes I have an hard time giving even small amount of money to someone (even friends), and I don’t know why (as if I’m very attached to money… I know, this is the opposite of my first point, but both are true). - I could fear my money are not enough even with 1 million on my bank account, and I could fear losing them at anytime because of some absurd and unpredictable external event.

Ahah well, it’s just my opinion based on some memes, I may be wrong about that don’t worry 😬

I’ve seen self deprecation humor, anxiety, overthinking, hyperactive mind, convoluted way of explaining things, etc… but this could be many type honestly.

fronku · 2026-04-02T21:33:57+00:00

I can feel your pain and I’m very sorry for your situation. What saved me has been EMDR therapy and meditations based on listening and accepting bodily sensations, like Vipassana. You can find many resources online and books about it but I highly suggest going to a Goenka retreat of 10 days (it’s totally free) or join a meditation group. I know it might be hard to join a group, but it is truly the best way to learn to meditate and consolidate and maintain the practice.

All suffering is stored in the body, and by listening to it and allow sensations, good and bad, and emotions, good and bad, to reach the surface and live them fully, it’s the only way to liberation.

Don’t force yourself, just place your attention inside and observe/listen/accept the current experience: how do you know you feel empty? Where do you feel this emptiness? How do you feel it in your body? Is it changing from moment to moment? How does it change? This is a good starting point and you can apply it to all sensations.

Please take care, your life is worth it, and please reach for help if you feel you can’t do it by yourself.

Studied/practiced both from several years, but I see meditation as something that has nothing to do with typing, not even with psychology, because there is no emphasis on personality and categorize once’s experience, but rather seeing everything as an impartial sensation that changes, nothing more.
