ok so!! a lot of the ppl here don’t know subtypes and don’t realize that they go hand in hand with enneagram. Many of you i think are comparing a stereotypical 7 and just the surface of e7 to stereotypical e3 which is what sp3 is. But he’s so3, not sp3. Sp3’s r hardworking, and rubs their achievements less in ppls faces. They want a high status and to be admired for BEING good and recognized for their hard work rather than being image oriented, etc. so3’s on the other hand, want to have influence and be admired for just yk, being cool, talented, skilled, and marketing their achievements. confidence is very important to them. But one thing they both have that Leo does is they both fear being worthless. Also, we do not recognize our enneagram or characters’ enneagrams based on behavior, but on the motivations and “what’s driving this bus” E7’s and so3’s are both about fun, outgoing, and avoid negative emotions. But E7’s don’t want to focus on the negative cause they feel like if they do they may never come out of the darkness. Thus they are dreamers, plan ahead, and see reality through the lenses of imagination to avoid feeling sad especially sx7. E3’s avoid negative emotions cause they think if they show it ppl will not like them and focusing on their mistakes and such may make them feel worthless so they will try to cover it up as much as possible (but when they do and start questioning their self worth they may become more accommodating or selfless) Leo always rubs his achievements and talents in peoples faces, he cuts corners and covers up failure, likes looking good and consciously or unconsciously struggles with his self worth. So3’s are focused with social status but not in the same hardworking way sp3’s are, he just wants to have a good one not a high one. So more of a social image i guess. Until Raph starts to “boss him around” and he thinks he “doesn’t like the way he does things” which Leo finds a threat to this social image and he starts to rebel against him and try to do thinfs on his own to prove his skills in order to prove his worth then covers it up when he fails. “He wants to have fun” but so3’s do that too. Your insecurities and motivations doesn’t have to show 24/7 for them to be there and they’re definitely the fuel for his behavior. But literally all of the brothers want to have fun in this even Donnie and Raph’s serious a$$es. Not to mention he has a 7 fix without a doubt (the “379” thing for those who dont know), so obviously he will show traits from both enneagrams. But e3 definitely triumphs e7. Leo’s dominant fear and motivation is not about being scared of never coming out of the darkness and sadness. It’s more about fearing being worthless useless and weak and trying to improve and protect/take care of his social image. Also remember earlier i said 7’s r dreamers and plan ahead, 3’s can dream like anyone else obviously but they’re more in the present. type 7 is an intellectual type and 3 a more sensory and in-the-moment one. Basically 7 doesn’t really go with Se doms (sp7 does if aux Ti) descriptions: “The social 3 desires influence above all and tends to skillfully read and adjust to the social norms and requirements of teams and organizations. Highly competitive, they enjoy being in the spotlight and confidently market their ideas and achievements. Looking good and successful is very important and they may cut corners and cover up failure, so long as the final product makes them look good.” I don’t even wanna bother putting a 7 description to compare with this, but i will put one to argue which subtype i think is his fix: sp7. sx is too much of a dreamer and romanticizer while so7 too much focus on being of service to others. So let’s get into it: self preservation 7: “This energized 7 is a great networker, gathering a “family” of close supporters and motivated by wanting the best for everyone. They love the good things in life and may risk becoming self-interested and pleasure seeking. This subtype is generally good at getting what they need to have fun and feel safe, but may also be good at rationalising and defending whatever they want to do.” I tried to split all this up into as many paragraphs/parts as possible so it would feel shorter/easier to read but also keep all the points together… Ok that’s it byebye
