    I'm a type 4 and i always go shopping having an image of what i want. I spend hours and hours in the store and often come out empty handed and frustrated because nothing is the way i want. In rare cases i buy a perfect thing that i wear for years and i'm ready to buy it again once it's worn out. I love going shopping with friends only if i have no intention to buy things but just to hang out have fun (4/1 :), otherwise i need to be alone and take my time. When i'm being adviced most of the times i end up frustrated, spending more money than i was supposed to, and having things i would never buy by myself. It's also true about reading bad comments mostly :)

    Absolutely correct! I have even developed a “uniform” of sorts in the way I dress and am a minimalist for sure. I do all my shopping online these days, but in the past, if I ever went with a girlfriend, it was just for fun and socializing-serious shopping required I be alone, and that definitely meant no sales people!

    Type 4/3 here and this is 100% spot on. When I go clothes shopping I mean business. I know exactly what I want and, for the most part, I find the item(s) and escape as soon as possible. Online shopping is ideal for me and although I do tend to read negative reviews first, I don't let them dissuade me from purchasing an item that I think meets my criteria of style and fit. Interestingly, when it comes to shopping at bookstores and craft supply stores, I am delighted to spend endless hours perusing, exploring, and being inspired. I consider these venues oases of self-care. As always, sending blessings to marvelous you, Carol! What a shining star you are in my world!!

    I keep my cars until they are beyond repair. My previous car went to the graveyard of cars at 17. I didn't want to give it up! I still loved it and still miss it! I would have bought the same car again but they don't make them anymore. It takes me a very long time to research purchases like that---it took a year of research before I decided on another vehicle. (I knew the car was on its last legs but it was paid for!)

    Exactly! Every point spot on for me! One other point: When I find something that works for me, I keep it forever, and order it in multiples (same style different colors) rather than bounce around. I've worn the same style of Dooney & Bourke tote for literally decades and just re-order it in different colors.

    I'm a 4/2. For clothing, I shop online exclusively. Sales people drive me crazy. I will leave if they don't take the hint and leave me alone when I tell them to, and I am very direct about telling them to. I have a uniform for each season and can go online and search for exactly what I want. Plus, I know which companies carry what I already want.

    This is how DYT has saved me lots of money. I wanted to be content with cheap clothes and household items, but I kept not wearing and using any of them, nor caring for them. They cluttered up my home, broke and I wouldn’t care, and then I would throw them out, having to buy them anew. Now I save up, buy something of excellent quality, enjoy and take care of it, and in the long run spend way less money. And I waste less also. And have less clutter of things I refuse to use. Win-win-win! I dislike that I am such a princess, but I just have to embrace it. It is good for the soul, the wallet and the planet to know myself.

    I'm so specific in what I want that I don't even want to waste my energy in a brick and mortar store anymore. I'm so much happier this way! I'd rather Google shop, Amazon, or Etsy search exactly what I want and choose the best options. Plus those reviews are very reassuring to me - first I'm reading up on fit (and looking at pictures), second fabric (does it pill especially). I will say, the other day I noticed I was just ignoring the reviews with terrible grammar and a lot of spelling mistakes. They lost credibility with me. I didn't think that was a tendency I had when I was reading through the book but there it was and it made me chuckle! Oddly if I have to go to an in-person store I would rather have a family member or friend with me, but it's not so much about actually shopping for me at that point.

    This is spot on! I ALWAYS shop by myself and if a clerk watches me or says more than just hello I'm turned off. Yes on Yelp or Amazon I scroll down to the 1-star reviews first, lol, because it's easier for me to weed out flawed items. It takes me a long time to finally pull the trigger, but when I do it's EXACTLY what I want, even if it costs more than I initially thought I would spend, because I'd rather pay more for the perfect item.

    This is 100% spot on! Every single point. I don't shop with friends. Shopping with friends to me is a social activity, not shopping. For example, I'm fine having a cup of coffee and pastry with my friend after window shopping. I would do this to support and spend quality time with her, and only with 1 or 2 friends, not a group. When I'm shopping, I'm in and out and done. I do not window shop. There is no purpose in that for me. I zero in on the stores that will mostly likely meet my purpose or goal, and then I'm out of there :)

    T4. I went to buy a car with a very specific idea of what I wanted. The previous research was so fun! Car after car I test drove and my idea of the car I wanted wasn't working for me and my family. I still held to my ideal! In comes the car salesman driving a very different car from the one of my research and dreams. Once I saw it, though, I had to admit that it was the right car for me and my family. The T4 puts what is right above all and will change gears (i dont do humor, but it comes out unintended sometimes) when confronted with truth.
    And about reading online reviews, I read them for fun! I love to discern who writes the review from experience, from emotion, from a critical eye. I find reviewers who write so critically, so thoroughly with helpful info to the buyer that I read their reviews of products I have no interest in. So fun.

    I have a request for a video on DYT types vs. Highly Sensitive Persons. Supposedly 15-20% of the population ( in any species) are HSP’s, whether “extroverted” or “introverted” (though their definition of those is not clear). I’m a 4/2 & I check off every item on the HSP “quiz”, but don’t know if it’s because of my type or if any type can be a HSP. I’m wondering if they’re related or different things. I know processing deeply is a T 4 thing, which is how HSP’s brains are wired. I relate to being more like an orchid rather than a dandelion, & to being like a canary down in a mine who notices, is affected & speaks up about problems while others don’t seem aware. I remember you talking about empaths vs DYT types & how any type can be an empath, so I’m wondering about HSP vs DYT types. Thank you.

(Which I am surprised is a type 4 color) Except the palest orange. I look washed out in the bright orange. I know orange is a warm color but the iced mint made me wonder. Found something online but it's hard to buy without having ever tried it. What do you think?
