Gakked from _medley_
And I'm going to come back later and offer discourse on it but for now
ETA MY day is really getting away from me so it'll be *late* before I can do this

Your Score: 6 - the Questioner

Thanks for taking the test !



you chose CY - your Enneagram type is SIX (aka "The Loyalist").

"I am affectionate and skeptical"

Questioners are responsible, trustworthy, and value loyalty to family, friends, groups, and causes. Their personalities range broadly from reserved and timid to outspoken and confrontative.

How to Get Along with Me
  • Be direct and clear.
  • Listen to me carefully.
  • Don't judge me for my anxiety. Especially when I am posting fic ;-)
  • Work things through with me.
  • Reassure me that everything is OK between us. Seriously Please do this - I worry that I've offended people *a lot*
  • Laugh and make jokes with me.
  • Gently push me toward new experiences.
  • Try not to overreact to my overreacting.


  • What I Like About Being a SIX
  • being committed and faithful to family and friends
  • being responsible and hardworking. I don't know that I'd go so far as to say *like*
  • being compassionate toward others
  • having intellect and wit. Wouldn't anyone hate to be stupid? :s
  • being a nonconformist. Not much nonconformist about Jack/Ianto ;-)
  • confronting danger bravely. Apparently I see danger everywhere (see below) therefore I do this a *lot* more often than you'd think :D
  • being direct and assertive. SO not me - right up to the point when it is *absolutely* necessary!


  • What's Hard About Being a SIX
  • the constant push and pull involved in trying to make up my mind. Er no!
  • procrastinating because of fear of failure; having little confidence in myself. Um yes?
  • fearing being abandoned or taken advantage of. Taken advantage of certainly...
  • exhausting myself by worrying and scanning for danger. Not consciously!
  • wishing I had a rule book at work so I could do everything right. Definitely NOT - a rule book for other people? *maybe*
  • being too critical of myself when I haven't lived up to my expectations. My bar is low people it is *so* low as to be mistaken for a limbo pole


  • SIXes as Children Often
  • are friendly, likable, and dependable, and/or sarcastic, bossy, and stubborn. Apparently I was the first of these once but I genuinely don't remember because by the time I was 5 I was covinced I wasn't the second. Yes to sarcastic. NO to bossy.
  • are anxious and hypervigilant; anticipate danger. I anticipated getting made fun of - *for a reason*
  • form a team of "us against them" with a best friend or parent. Really NO
  • look to groups or authorities to protect them and/or question authority and rebel. Yes to the first one - much good it did me!
  • are neglected or abused, come from unpredictable or alcoholic families, and/or take on the fearfulness of an overly anxious parent. I was bullied at home (by the brother who is 9 years older than I - I still cannot bear to be in the same room as him); bullied at school becasue I had red hair and glasses; and did have an over anxious parent


  • SIXes as Parents
  • are often loving, nurturing, and have a strong sense of duty. Guilty
  • are sometimes reluctant to give their children independence. No - leave the house already dammit!!
  • worry more than most that their children will get hurt. *wibbles* My children are outdoors/sporty people - between them they canoe, they bike, they do judo, they rock climb, they walk over the hills and far away... (in the dark without torches!) They are *statistically* more likely to get hurt!! :D
  • sometimes have trouble saying no and setting boundaries. *Really* not ask any one of them - I'll even try and set boundaries for their friends ;-)
