Hello everyone! I am very interested in helping people identify their enneatype/MBTI. However, I don't have very many resources to help them confirm their type. How do you go about helping people...

x91But what if x85x92 This is my all-time favorite statement! It is so versatile... I have actually turned it into a game. When I'm with my friends, I will find funny what if... statements about the...
Flatlander I do agree that the cognitive functions would be more useful for a more definite description of typology than jumping right into Myers-Briggs or the Enneagram for that matter. I did...
I have a lot of friends that I have tried to help them type themselves. There have been many people that are receptive but I will come across a few (I can think of one in particular) who more or less...
I DO NOT LIKE IT when I go to the bank/grocery store/etc. and people are so fake that they might as well ooze pasteurized prepared cheese product. I especially don't like it when this occurs while...

Do you think it is possible that somebody's type can change throughout their life?
Which MBTI type do you think edits their posts/writing most often? I have a big problem with retyping everything I post because I personally think it sounds awkward. I even have this problem while...

I know this probably falls in line with being Si-dom but do you ever have strong feelings centered around an object? If so, what is the object and what are the feelings? Also, have you ever...
