Have you ever taken the Enneagram test?
http://similarminds.com/test.html

Well, I don't like it. Every time I take it, I get a different personality type. One minute I'm romantic, the next enthusiastic and then a peacemaker. Am I lying or just schizo? :silly:

Anybody wanna share their personality types? :)

4. I figure my 'ol Mac doesn't "hear" other computers too well
or my test answers were so neutral as to be unreconizable! I'll try it at the library. Thanks!

6. I've taken it
and I'm either an INFP or an INTP on different occasions. It's usually split between those, but rarely do I go against either of those types.

7. I think what you're referring to is the
Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI), which has those type of results. The Enneagram has nine types of personalites like the individualist, challenger, reformer etc. But thanks for sharing. I'll have to take the MBTI myself. :)

8. Your main type is Type 5, Your variant is social
Type 1 Perfectionism |||||||||||| 50%
Type 2 Helpfulness |||||||||||||||| 62%
Type 3 Image Focus |||||||||||||||| 62%
Type 4 Hypersensitivity |||||||||||| 42%
Type 5 Detachment |||||||||||||||| 66%
Type 6 Anxiety |||||||||||||| 54%
Type 7 Adventurousness |||||| 30%
Type 8 Aggressiveness |||||||||| 34%
Type 9 Calmness |||||||||||||| 54

Fives feel ambivalent about the world; consequently their mind is usually their best friend. Gifted in analysis and making sense of things, perception and invention come naturally. The inner world can become a hideaway from the real one.

13. my personality type
type 1 Perfectionism 58%
type 2 Helpfullness 42%
type 3 Image Focus 10%
type 4 Hypersensitivty 46%
type 5 Detachment 86%
type 6 Anxiety 54%
type 7 Adeventurousness 22%
type 8 Aggressiveness 34 %
type 9 Calmness 58%

main type 5

I don't know about most of the types, but the really high detachment and really low image focus make a lot of sense to me. I'd guess 5 years ago the anxiety and calmness numbers would have been reverse, or even farther apart from the current. Calmness has overtaken my anxiety, and that is growing, is what I mean to say about that. Everything else would probably have been about the same.
