Exactly. It's the distinguishing thing (like JoL's 'not me' above). It's what I was trying to get at in the particulars/universals thing with 9 thinking. Clear 9 fix (imho), was even thinking 9 core for Des the other day ... but don't want to argue it out.  |

yeah, but I think it is more I have a line to 9 as a 6. And 6w7's often appear 2ish, as noted by R&H in p-types.
I'm not a firm believer in tritype. I believe more that people are a type and then often have other type issues to work on. Like maybe a parents type, or something along those lines.
My security point is 9, meaning that as a 6 when I feel secure I'm more "slothful".
That is the issue I'm having to deal with right now.
I wonder if our childhood fantasies pin-point our type to some extent? Or our first urges when we see another suffering? And then we must look at our actions.
If any of those are taken into account, then a 2/8 fix would define me, if tri-type was a real thing, which I'm not so sure it is.
My childhood was filled with me wishing to be able to feed the world, I would day dreaming of being able to "heal" terminally ill people, all anonymously, though. The idea of people hounding me is awful. And I hate the idea of people feeling indebted to me, as a 6 that would make me feel too off balance. If I had billions I would love to give it away, to friends maybe not anonymously because i trust they know me enough to understand the "free" nature of the gift, but with others absolutely, absolutely. But I'm not universal in who I would like to give to. I would want to reward struggle and talent. After soul searching I came to conclusion that having those kinds of fantasies dominate my mind as a child, and even today to a lesser extent, probably means that if tritype were true, that 2 would be the fix. I'm highly creative and have some talent, but I don't think 4's rule the whole spectrum when it comes to creativity or "dark" worlds.
And I do have many dark worlds I visit.. I'm a world walker. Maybe it is magic.. and we don't have to be 5's or 4's to have it. When you take that into account, 2 is a natural fit for so called "tritype".
I would probably value the perspective of people like VO who have known me for years and years, through many of my different phases.
I could be in a 6-9-2 phase at the moment. I see the 9 guess as affirmation of my "likableness". I take it as a complement and not a belief that I'm unable to assert myself in an effective clear manner.

By 'grounded', I mean a strong, grounded presence. Not necessarily 'practical' grounded, which is more 1.
The 'ethereal', 'gentle', 'fairy-like' nature of 4-7-9 may be over-estimated. I think a 9w8 fix will actually make one more earthy, with strong assertive presence, etc. Not ethereal or airy as that tritype is made out to be.
I could see this stuff. I'm not "practical" grounded.

Seriously, I do NOT know how you people see some of the things you do. Am I at all conflict avoidant? I mean, at all?
And I don't understand what Dusty meant by my "over-identifying" either. Though I do both, it seems like I disidentify more than identify.
I also don't exactly think sloth is a big issue for me, more like continually distracting myself.
My brother is a 9w8, and there is a stark contrast between us, both as children and as adults.

Definitely a compliment! Core type is genetic, I think ... hadn't really thought about tritype. I don't think our own thoughts or fantasies really shape us, more the mess, chaos and struggle of trying to be human as we cope with being powerless, then battling with adolescence, etc.
For mine, sx/so mixed with 6-9-2 is ... just delightful. Other tritypes with sx/so, esp with 4 in the mix ... much less so. 'Course talent sprouts in all types, as does darkness, not just 4 and 5, as many on this board demonstrate. Unhealthy 2 is as black as sin. The double superego of 6-2 is nicely balanced by the uplift of 2 and the free skies of 9.
Take it with a grain of salt, bien sur... I've only felt I've 'tuned into you' recently.

@ des
Was just saying that to me (subjectively, could be wrong, what do I know, etc.) your 9 fix is so clear that I could even contemplate core 9.
To point out the obvious - sx/sp can be a very feisty stacking. I don't think 'conflict avoidant' is really an adequate description of even the surface behaviour of 9's. I would hardly say EU, who I think is sx/sp 9w1 (and I think he does too again), seems conflict avoidant - he can be as sharp, spiky, confrontation and stand his ground, just as much as 8 fixers like Orph or me.

des: i actually see that bit of you as being something of a bit of urge to contrarianism coming from your 6 side. that is one thing that is fairly noteable about you.
i don't think that is related to 9 if that is the thing they are talking about but i don't recall the move to universals after disagreement. though there is much exception taking.

I personally see very little 9, comparatively. That's why I've always questioned the 9 fix.

This sort of statement confuses me. Isn't conflict avoidance one of the core traits of type 9?
quote: he can be as sharp, spiky, confrontation and stand his ground, just as much as 8 fixers like Orph or me.
Then I guess the question becomes what are you looking at as ninish traits? I know 9w8's can stand their ground, but it's my experience that they will only enter conflict when they feel they have to, and will end it as soon as they can.
Plus, I have no "world unity" thing going on, which even my sx/sp 9w8 friend is big on. Not sure how Jol would relate to it, though.

This is something a lot of people see as 1 in me, but I do think it's more 6. When I do it, it doesn't have a oneish feeling of "I'm right, and you're wrong", as people often assume it does. It does seem more about pointing out exceptions, ala 6.
And I don't 'specially recall the move to universals after disagreement either, but I don't get a lot of what's being said here anyway.

My friend Dylan does this too..It's pretty funny to watch in conversation with others, but frustrating in conversation with me.

Well, I don't so much see it working. I've always questioned the 9 fix, but I'm not totally opposed to it. I decided to go with 8 because I am confrontational and direct, and react aggressively. Sure, there are reasons someone could say it doesn't fit, but no more reasons than with 1 and 9, that I can see. I honestly don't care which gut fix gets stuck on me, but I do care about the reasons why. Exception - 9w1 fix, 'cause that's just way too gentle and dreamy for my personality, imo. Couldn't see 1w2 either. But in general - 8, 9, 1, whatever.

I'm not an expert on tri-fix but that seems like 7 energy in general to me regardless of tri-fix. |

Nor do I, but I think they might help define us. They might give pretty pure insight into the person.

Des I think I picked the 4 and 9 fixes for both yourself and lila more out of the isolation factor. I don't think lila is sx/sp, she seems pretty clearly sx/soc to me,or atleast how I define soc second. I had thought you soc second for awhile but theres a distictly different flavor on interacting.
You had an 8 dad right? Lila has a 9 dad.When im looking at tri-types thats what keeps coming up for me,themes. That was my motivation behind typing you as 7,4,9..And im not holding onto it because i dont even understand the tri-type theory. I've never invested much energy into it.
