Head or Heart?

[Deebs]

I am much more head than heart, but I think it's changed to a little more heart since I've had DD.

[samssugarmomma]

I think a little of both. I'll do months and months of research about someting and then somewhat impulsively make a decision and do it.

Like our house. We did months of research on locations, how much we could spend, if we should or shouldn't, buying vs renting, etc. Then one day, we went to Sams for dog bones, and come home with a contract for a house (and dog bones)!

While this is facinating, in how we think of head vs heart etc...Nobody makes a decision they think is wrong, that is the key.

I say even that it is impossible to do something you don't think is 'right' even if only for the fleeting second you choose to do it.


Head, Heart, Gut......just like the mind's eye....all the same.

though you women think men make decisions with something else I hear.

I'd wager your more heart, Peter.

I would too. It's interesting though the difference though in how it's expressed from a female/male perspective though, isn't it. I wish all of the guys would chime in on this one. I love Pete's totally practical, *you guys are full of blah, blah, blah* answer.

And Pete...I think we're pretty right about how guys tend to make some decisions. :>

I try to weigh things up in my head, then go with my gut instinct

I feel good about the majority of decisions I make. Still, I sometimes question and that questioning usually falls along the lines of a head/heart issue.

[Meenah]

Both, probably gut more than head or heart.

Come now, I did not say full of blah, blah....

All good decisions are cleared with a husband anyway.

[DCJenn]

No, all husbands think they're the decision-makers....and all good wives smile to themselves.

I used to be a total think with my heart kinda gal. That proved to be to dangerous for me and now that I am older I rule with my head.

[Phoebe]

I lied. I realized many of my reactions to things are emotional and with my heart. Not usually the best results. Sometimes my head takes over and I agonize over decisions like all-day or half-day kindergarten. Nothing is ever easy when it comes to me.

Dh had to get some dental work done, and he told the dentist that he'd have to ask *me* if it was ok to do it! I was sitting in the waiting room and dh came out with his bib on! Who wears the pants in this house?!

Head, mostly.....but I am often torn between what I know and what I feel. DH doesn't often struggle with that conflict.
