You don’t feel love. You DO it. It’s an act, not a feeling. It’s a moment by moment decision and re-commitment. You know because it’s deliberate and conscious.

In understanding the person who considers themselves more rational it’s important to remember that they are usually problem-solvers. They get satisfaction from a sense of intellectual coherence and resolution. Emotions and stress can be overwhelming for them and they often need time and space on their own to process. While those who are oriented more towards emotions often process their experience by talking about it with other people, those oriented towards reasoning process their experience more internally and more slowly. Especially when they are overwhelmed they may need less interaction rather than more in order to sort things out.

…t’s also said that opposites attract. I believe both are true, but usually in different dimensions. People often are attracted to others who share common interests but have complementary personalities. By that I mean something like what I described earlier, such as one person more expressive, one quieter; one more social, one more of a homebody; and so on.
