Enneagram Type 7 (my type!) in Relationships or Love
Yay for 7's -- I'm totally biased here as a type 7 and I will be vulnerable and state that I can relate to both the good and bad parts of being a 7 (even the embarrassing commitment part).
If you want any further clarification, don't hesitate to message me, and I'm happy to share what might be helpful.
Type 7's in love: You are high energy, spontaneous, and love to try new things and have experiences. When healthy, they bring positivity, joy, and gratitude to their relationships that permeates even the gloomiest of people. They bring good conversation and positivity to their romantic partners.
On the downside, they do not like being tied-down to routines, empty commitments, or rules that don't make sense. This can look like struggling with FOMO about other relationship partners or experiences and struggling with commitment to their partner. They hate to feel as if they are limiting their life in any way, and sometimes this leaks into how they feel about their relationship partners.
7's can also struggle with impatience, and wanting their relationship to be more complete and developed than it really is. Learning patience with life and relationships unfolding over time is CRUCIAL for the 7.
Lastly, 7's can be a bit impulsive with what they say which can be problematic in the heat of an argument. This can lead to their partner being hurt or not trusting their words if they come back to correct their original version with their more-thought out and often more truthful version.

Even the “I’m drinking decaf, but weirdly I still feel energy” and “Maybe it’s a good thing I balance my caffeine intake, but I might go for the real deal later” comments are just about as 7 as it gets 👍🏼😂😂🙋🏼♀️

Buahahahhaa im a 7 and I totally drink decaf! If I drink caffeine I cannot sleep at night. Haha
I'm a 7w8 and I feel like my directness provided by my wing is a benefit in many ways including relationships. It makes me more direct, so I explicitly state my intentions instead of being vague or flaky. The thing I find frustrating is that I'm so bubbly normally, people can never tell I'm interested in them, and potential partners that know enneagram or Myers-Briggs (ENFP here) are worried I'll be flaky or non-commital.
"I'm a 7..." Nah, you're a 10 😎 -fellow Type 7 lol
This was great! I’m a 7, and found this really helpful.
Happy Wednesday from the future!
This was fantastic and really helpful to me (a 7) thanks!
I am all of the numbers.
Thanks
Jenny, would you happen to know your instinctual subtype? What you're describing sounds a lot like how I feel in relationships, and I'm trying to figure out my subtype
Great video! I’m a 7 and I have a question! I’m in a relationship with an awesome guy, we love each other and have fun together and he’s great. But I dated a guy before who made me feel soo on top of the world, it was pure bliss. It didn’t workout because he ended up not being a great guy for me morally, etc., and I know it’s comparison, but I can’t help but think of how my current boyfriend is not as fun as him. I know that’s not fair, but my current bf is so task oriented and planned, so it’s sometimes hard for me because I feel I missing out on that pure bliss feeling. I’m really working on being more grounded and not putting so much hope in that stimulated feeling-especially because I know everyone has their own problems, but it’s something I’m battling! I want more than anything to make it work with my bf, I just find myself anxious about this!

Hi Caitlin, I'm a seven too. I think sevens do really well with other personality types, balancing them out. Personally, I can't imagine being with another seven. If the other guy wasn't great morally for you, then he probably would not be the right husband overall for the future. This other guy, maybe he's not as fun as the other, but as a life partner - do you think you'd be content with him? Can you sit in the car and just be together having a good time without saying anything or do every day mundane life things and still be happy he's there with you? We are never going to have total bliss with our mates, maybe at some times, but nothing that appears to be perfect really turns out to be in the end. Comparison is a joy robber, and maybe thinking about that other guy is doing that - and maybe that's why we are not designed to compare others or ourselves to others.

Its been 11 months, how did this turn out? Also a seven here. I am married. I have FOMO all the time in life all together. The one thing I meditate on is FOMO often is a lie. I wish they dug into this more, but it is simple. FOMO causes us to really miss out in relationships. We want connection, and to have fun while feeling the " im on top of the world" Euphoria. What is the greatest way to get there? To have superficial relationships hopping from one good thing to the next? Or the Connectivity of a long term spouse who truly pushes you into growth, shares your mutual passion for intimacy , and joy? Little random blurb here, thanks for reading. I would love an update on how it turned out for you.

I love your self-awareness. My ex is a 7 and for a long time after we broke up, I was the one he'd overly romanticize and dream about. I could tell it wasn't even real, but since I had feelings for him, it was brutal to always have to deliberately try and wake him up, show him my bad side, show that I'm a human just like his actual girlfriend, etc. I'm a 5 and deliberately burst his bubble but even then his dream persisted. I was in competition with myself, or rather with his dream of me, which I could never live up to.
Please do social 7 w 6
How are 7s and 8s in love. How do u know a 7 is into u
As a male 7 and classic ESFP, what type would be the best romantic feamle match type for me? I've found I'm most attracted to extroverted introverts, ones who have introverted personalities but like the do physical attactities and adventures, not indoors stuff. A 9?
