Sweet_T Posted May 10, 2011 Posted May 10, 2011 (edited) Why is it so easy to be so irrational when you should behave most rationally?!?!?!?!? When emotions are flying and you just want what you want. My ex called me last night and told me I have a lot of growing up to do, and honestly...I don't think it's a matter of having to grow up, its a matter of behaving rationally.

Leda Posted May 11, 2011 Posted May 11, 2011 Your ex sounds like a condescending ass!! We ALL have our problemos, we should each deal with our own crap instead of getting all high and mighty and superior about each other's The whole reason for a relationship (unless it's a business partnership or an arranged marriage to consolidate kingdoms) is emotional intimacy. It's a good practice to be sane and safe, but rational--ehhh. Emotional connections and passion aren't rational.
TaraMaiden Posted May 11, 2011 Posted May 11, 2011 He's right. All decisions and problems should be tackled in a rational, logical and reasonable mind-set. If you're feeling extra- or over-emotional, that's not the time to try to rationalise anything, or come to any decisions. Decisions based on reason, logic and rationale are far more likely to come good. Decisions based on emotional and heart-wrought thinking, are invariably bound to be wrong.

Love isn't rational, therefore it is difficult to behave rationally. How great would it be if we could all be logical, reasonable, and rational when it came to love?
TaraMaiden Posted May 11, 2011 Posted May 11, 2011 That's not what I'm saying. Read the original question again. Why is it so easy to be so irrational when you should behave most rationally?!?!?!?!? When emotions are flying and you just want what you want. I'm saying that when it comes to making decisions which require logic, reason and rationale, we should not make them from an emotive state. Simple, see? I was addressing the question.
