: I have a friend who is a 4 (I think with 3 wing). She just learned about
: the enneagram and was amazed how the profile of a 4 fit her so perfectly.
: She just called me asking " But when I'm with people, I notice how much
: I try to fit in or belong, not try to be different." I said that maybe it
: is a subconscious thing. In most ways, she is EXACTLY like a 4.

: Does anyone have any insight into this issue? Thanks.

Hi Micki
People with four energies when disintegrating, it's called, move into a two energy and two's are all things to all people and get along with all types of people ....your friend is likely feeling like she needs to extend herself.........but is she also feeling that when others don't respond according to her need.......she moves to an eight energy and gets upset cause they didn't this or that .........when she did this or that......Read on disintegration and integration and you will find we all move around the enneagram.......during different processes in our lives.....Four's are very interesting people..my best friend for 20 years is a four........gotta love them. What energy type are you...
also it's good to remember the type is not who we are really but rather our course of action in life........later
