Enneagram Types 5 and 8 in a Relationship Explained You've Got a Type

Here's a glimpse into what a relationship looks like between a Type 5 Investigator and a Type 8 Challenger.

We'll talk about what these types have in common, what specifically attracts each type to each other, what conflict looks like between them, and then conclude with some *potentially* helpful advice based on the enneagram theories discussed throughout the episode. DISCLAIMER: This is a general overview that cannot cover the complexity of each subtype & variation (e.g. a self-pres 8w7 with a social 5w4 could be very different than some of these general descriptions), nor can I cover how the varying degrees of each specific couple's mental/emotional health would impact so many of these patterns. So with that disclaimer out of the way, please feel free to share how these patterns do or don't play out in your personal life, all while keeping any combative disagreements to a minimum :) Thank you, and enjoy!
