I've always wanted to answer this, being a self-absorbed Four and all Women: As these are all "platonic" (hate that term) relationships for me, I tend to be attracted to Twos and Sevens. Like Devora, however, the Three wing that Twos sometimes have can drive me batty. As for Sevens, I totally can't deal with the hyperactive ones, but the ones who have gone to Five are some of the most interesting and entertaining people on the planet. Men: Ah...now here I break the Four pattern. :) *I love Sevens and Eights!* I'm talking healthy types, natch...but who needs an unhealthy anything? :) Specifically, I like Eights with Nine wings (actually, I like women like this, too, but they're rare). The core of Eight is strong, loving, and go-getting, while the Nine wing mellows it out and makes it possible to talk about more "sensitive" things. I admire Eights for their personal power, and rather than have them lord it over me, I would want to learn how to wield it myself. As for Sevens, I have a major thing for musicians (who can be any type, but especially Seven), plus I like Hermetic/Dionysian types with a bounce in their step in a gleam in their eye. Unfortunately, they can cause easy heartbreak, as they tend to play hide-and-seek. But like their female counterparts, they can also be some of the mose interesting people on the planet, as well as some of the most spiritual. The spirituality of healthy Sevens is oft denied and overlooked, but it is powerful and incredibly life-affirming! I also have a soft-spot for Fours, of course, and in particular, I love the Artist in Torment of the male variety. However, most of them are way too much like me to consider for a serious relationship...but ya never know. (I'd love to discuss this Artist in Torment archeytpe on here later). :) Well, that's all for now. I'd like to add that I can only deal with Sevens and Eights if I have another Four or Five to balance out the picture. There are only so many games of tackle one can play, after all, before one goes inside for lemonade. --Areia
