Riso wrote "6's have an uncanny ability to induce anxiety and other emotions in people" My own dealings with two very emotional 'feeling' type 6 managers at work confirms this.
One of them has almost caused two different people on two different occaisions to get into
auto accidents while they were driving with him in the car.
This guy basically sucks your attention away to pacify his dependant emotionality needs.
Its nothing overt, but body language. Body language is everything as is tone of voice,
speech tempo, etc. Then he blamed the drivers of the cars for almost getting him hurt.
Makes you want to whoolop someone so void of personal accountability.
Nines with their backs against the wall are the same. Their disintegration to 6 produces
IDENTICAL behavior as a nervous six. Perhaps others are not as critical of these 6 characteristics. It does seem that we are
most critical of the neg. characterictics of our own type than others. 3's for example
are sensitive to liars and 8's to bullies. Perciever
