Yes, I do, and someone ( I don't remember who) said that Fours can look like Sevens when they are feeling good. Some of the people on these boards thought I was a Seven when I was feeling good, because I may have seemed superficial. I was sick of my deep dark Fourishness, so was happy to be superficial rather than being saddled with intensity, but was conscious that I WAS being that. Maybe a Seven wouldn't realise they were being superficial as they might not have anything to compare it with. I don't know, I'm not sure I know any Sevens. But I do know I can handle other's pain, even if at times I want to avoid my own through sheer exhaustion with it, whereas Sevens reportedly, find it hard to deal with other's pain except for very short periods of time, but I can take it long time.
I think the big area of overlap for a Four and a Seven is their explorative nature and consequent exciteability.
