'http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jfTNcewDKS4 I'm not sure if it's love anymore, but I've been thinking of you fondly, for sure.

Seriously, I thought everyone knew the extent to which I'm legitimately talking to myself. But, no. My dad actually interrupted my conversation with myself and goes, Are you talking to yourself in...

I suppose this is more of a random observation...but, about my top three favorite bands. Bright Eyes is music for my brain. Alkaline Trio is music for my guts. Smashing Pumpkins is music for my...

I've never had a legitimate hero before. There have been people I appreciate, and look up to, but never an actual hero, per se. But holy shit, ROD SERLING, you are my true hero, sir! I always...

I think the extent of my actual manipulation has been to get information out of people, rather than using it against them. Or to reinforce or negate a conclusion I came to about them. A simple...

I wonder what the explanation for my love/hate relationship with everyone and everything is. I'm talking serious extremes. I wish the intensity would get boring, but it doesn't.

We finally had a real conversation about this. Why does it always have to be on the brink of a break-up? Not that I would ever be the one to end it, but he always seems like he wants to, but can't,...

Dear Introverted Feeling, What the hell? Why, why, why? I really can't even like...turn the volume down, so to speak. The idea of dominant functions infuriates and perpetually frustrates me. ...

At what point can one decide that a relationship is over? That growth between the two parties is no longer possible? Perhaps this is merely an example of my so-called high expectations as an...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bTToB7sq4KE Lights On - (Stars) I, the Sun Reminds me of Joy Division...and something else...

Interesting. I relate to the bold part. However, I don't seem to always know how I feel. What I tend to get out of most of it is does this feel awful, or does it feel okay? I also rarely know...

I don't really remember my parents presence too much in early childhood. They were there, but they weren't really there. I was yelled at for trying to talk to them after work, because they were...

If I'm being honest with myself, I deal with the hateful world by hating it back.

I've realized that I don't cry anymore. I tear up, I feel the horrible chest pressure, and I want to rake my brains out of my head, but I cannot cry. The thought of non-existence is the only thing...

When I speak of Pop music, I'm basically referring to things like Lady Gaga, Ke$ha, Katy Perry, etc. So, popular pop music on the radio. I can say with confidence I don't like Pop music,...

If only I could count how many times I've laughed so hard reading about introverted feeling. It normally sounds something like, Haahahahaha! Oh my GOD, seriously? What am I reading?

I used to be really into a couple mainstream anime in like freshman and sophomore year of high school. The ones I like now are Cowboy Bebop, FLCL, and Welcome to the NHK. Generally speaking, I...

ESFP for 4+ years. Typing him has been incredibly difficult over the last few years, but I'm pretty confident this is his type.

Well, I've always been strictly non-confrontational when it comes to those who are basically strangers. It stings for a second, then I forget about it, and them. Condescending attitudes are the...

I don't understand why all of my dreams are so strange. As in, the feeling. Eerie, foreboding, suspenseful, blatantly cryptic and symbolic. Everything happens in front of me like it's charades. ...

Consciousness is a being, the nature of which is to be conscious of the nothingness of its being. -- Jean-Paul Sartre

I don't use Facebook a lot to begin with, so I've never seriously considered deactivating it. I arbitrarily log on to find a couple messages, or new friend requests. Once in a while I'll go around...

Well, the people I'm closest to, most aren't really critical of much. The ones in my life that are have some kind of issue with admitting to some of their own faults and behaviors. With these...

What helped me the most was the idea that you're never going to know for sure what others are thinking of you, so generally, it's best not to even worry about it. If you're talking about feeling...

Most TV series I watch are hilarious cartoons. Otherwise: Dexter Cowboy Bebop Law & Order

Sad things? I'm generally attracted to anything that makes my chest feel like it is going to implode in on itself. Pressure, whatever you call it. I feel kind of the opposite of what Moss Icon...

Haha, I promise I have better taste than just Trio, Cage the Elephant and Bright Eyes. :cool: I haven't seen them live yet. Sucks to hear that.

My iTunes isn't accurate, neither is the overall songs on my last.fm at this point. The last 6 months is waaaaay more relevant. I also have a tendency to play certain artists/songs/albums for long...

This was taken over fifteen years ago by one of my parents. This was the view of our neighbors right in front of the house I grew up in....

I'm not under the impression that others are more well-informed than me. Maybe in practical areas of life, but it doesn't stay that way for long. Also, I really have troubles identifying with...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CGOxi7U-sNw pray for a man in the middle, one that talks like doolittle.

This was a question that always got me on the type-assessments. Like Mendelevium said, I find myself at both ends. I can make the biggest generalizations, and I could go into the details and defend...

I deal with it by seeing it for what it is. It's pretty much cultural preference of personality types, especially in the way the OP describes it. I also deal with it by thinking of it like...

Thank you, dfoster. The 5 fears are indeed what I identify with. I am beginning to think after realizing my first mistype I was just trying to make sure I wasn't being overtly biased somehow...

Regarding the 7 aspect, most of those things seem to be true. Some don't require that I be stressed, like talking a lot for instance (although I only do a lot of it when I'm alone). My thoughts are...

The times I took the PerC test I got 5w4 twice, and 5w6 three times. I've also read the misidentification articles. According to those, I would be 5. I don't feel the need to back up my ideas so...

I thought 4w5 was my type for quite a while, and one day while reading type articles, five made a lot more sense than four. After a couple weeks I was comfortable with my conclusion. Then, while...

Dear high school co-worker, I don't think you have even been here for a year yet. I know you came in and immediately targeted our night manager as the one you would try to emulate completely. I...

There goes my enneagram type...again. It took forever to see through the first mistype, and like two weeks to see through the second one. Not very confident in my self-awareness right now.

INFP 5, unsure about the wing. Sure about the first two in my tritype, 5 and 9, and almost positive about sexual/self-preservation.

I'm sitting in my room with the window open. It's really nice outside (cloudy, but really nice), the birds are chirping loudly, and all of a sudden this guy starts whistling something that's just so...

Parents: Mom - ESTJ Dad - INFP (almost sure) They've been together for over 25 years, still going strong even after some major incidences. They're totally in love. Maternal Grandparents:...

People are afraid of themselves.

I apologize for the late reply. I didn't mean to imply it was the doctor who said my metabolism was just really high. It's been the family and friends I've talked to about this. It's the best...

I'm not completely sure that I am a 5w4, but I am pretty confident that 5 is my core type. I thought my type was 4w5 for a very long time, and one day I was arbitrarily reading through enneagram...'
