: Yeah everyone seems to make fun of my spelling. But i type to fast to tell and i really don't tell. The best Enneagram book i've read is Understanding the Enneagram by Don Richard Riso and it goes into great detail and new updates on advances of the Enneagram. I'm starting to feel really stupid here.
Hi LSDiemos :)
Please don't feel that you are stupid - quite clearly you are not! While some of us may be sticklers for grammar or spelling or whatever - that's our problem - not yours! We are all here to learn more about the enneagram - just like you. We all like to interact with other 4's - just like you. We all have a need to feel connected with others like ourselves - just like you. You have as much right to be here as anyone else. I'm sure you have insights and experiences to share with us that we would never have the opportunity to learn about if you weren't here. And if you don't understand something, you only have to ask. I'm 40 years of age and I still ask questions that probably seem pretty stupid to others - but it's all news to me - so I just risk the possibility of embarrassment and ask anyway. I've learned alot that way....
Give it a little time and you'll start to feel more at home, I'm sure. I felt pretty awkward when I first came here - but now I feel very much at home.
You'll see....

P.S. interesting name you have there....is it your real name or an alias?
