You think ten steps ahead so others don't have to.
You've landed on the result that basically invented the phrase "but what if it goes wrong." Type 6, The Loyalist. You're the one who reads the terms and conditions, shows up fifteen minutes early just in case, and has already mapped three escape routes from any given social situation. Preparation isn't a habit for you. It's a personality trait.
Here's the thing about Sixes: you are genuinely one of the most reliable, perceptive, and fiercely devoted people in any room. Your friends know that if they call you at 2am, you're picking up. You spot problems before they happen, you remember everyone's weird little preferences, and your loyalty runs so deep it's practically geological.
The flip side, and you already knew there was a flip side, is that your brain is essentially a 24-hour anxiety hotline that never fully closes. You can talk yourself into a crisis over an unanswered text, a slightly odd tone in an email, or a look someone gave you in 2019. You don't just expect the other shoe to drop. You've catalogued every shoe in the building and ranked them by likelihood of dropping.
When you're in someone's corner, you are really in it. Ride or die isn't just an expression for a Six. It's practically a vow.

You thrive with clear expectations and supportive teams. Watch the tendency to overthink decisions or seek excessive reassurance.
