SS: I love that I’m in what is called “The Heart Triad.” I totally lead with my heart on pretty much everything. RH: I love that my number has a “great reputation” but at the same time I have come to learn that my number has very prideful tendencies. And most of the time my feelings are pretty accurate. I can tell immediately if something is just a little bit off. I feel like I especially understand that with my husband. KT: Probably that I can tell pretty much right away if someone is in not a healthy place or if they’re needing help. What’s your favorite thing about being a Two?

Twos in stress look like unhealthy Eights-they become demanding and controlling. They are okay with not loving everybody and can prioritize self-care and focus inward. To a Two, they have to be needed to be loved. They believe that others are more needy than they are and that they are the only ones who know how to meet the needs of others. The Passion or Deadly Sin for Twos is Pride. Twos will give you the clothes off their back-but want to know that they can count on payment in kind. Part of the Shame/Heart triad, Twos control their shame by focusing on everyone but themselves. But when they’re unhealthy, they become co-dependent in their relationships. When they’re healthy, they can name their own needs and feelings without fear of being unwanted or unlovable. They want to make sure you feel safe and comfortable. Enneagram Twos are great friends to have.
