Im just like your friend who can know determine the type of people, and it has given me a HUGE amount of understanding and insight into personal relationships or guessing what people will do next. Most of my friends are 5s iroinically. Im a 4. They know what the enneagram means but try and tell a 1 or a 3 about the enneagram they think its just a bunch of mushy stuff with no real practical meaning. I think it does have a lot of practical meaning. I just use my powers of the observation to try and figure people out.
Determing that both of my parents were 1s without a doubt gave me a lot of insight into childhood.
: I total understand my friend, type 4's can indeed use their powers of observation (at determining other peoples types) for either good or bad. If a type 4 is good, the world is indeed a better place ... However, if a type 4 goes bad, than the world is indeed doomed to a fate worse than mortal man can imagine ... the only thing you do to stop a rogue bad number 4 is remind them that 'they should be doing their thesis and not reading this ... did you get that Adrienne ... do some work on your thesis'
