Me and my girlfriend get into heated arguments from time to time about silly things, she is an emotion based personality, I am logical.
She is the type to explode when she is angry, even when she knows there is no reason for her to be angry.
When I get angry, I always try to think of "why?" if I have a reason, then I present it. If not, I just carry on as if nothing is wrong.
If this seems odd, just picture this...
You wake up, and you've woken up in a bad mood. You have no real reason to be mad, but you just are, so in this state, you are more prone to "reaction"
When my GF is like this, she will find little things to nitpick about, and me, being the logical person I am, always have to refute here. (yes honey its 6am, I havent taken the garbage out yet because I'm leaving in an hour, I will take it out then)
things like that.
but since me and her have had some major word battles over things like this.
I asked her one day "Do you think that Logic is really opposed to Emotion? Are they true opposites like black and white?"
She says yes, though, I find myself unsure.
It seems like they would be opposites. But it seems absurd to me at the same time.
I consider them 2 parts of a whole if anything, yin and yang? water and land may be traditional opposites to some lines of thinking, but to me, I view them as parts of the whole.
anyways, just a question thats been inside for a while now, thought I would ask people here to see perception though everyone else on this matter.
heres another related tangent about me and my gf
we are zodiac opposites, she is a Scorpio (11th month), I am a Taurus. (5th month)
I dont know if people here subscribe to the validity of "signs" but its been an interesting read to me and her nonethess, though really, this subject is for another thread.
