Should you follow your gut feeling?

I always follow my gut feeling. when I don't know what to do

I listen to both. My gut feeling is sometimes completely wrong so my head tells me to take some time to think about things before making a final decision. For example, there is this girl that really like and I asker her out about 3 years ago. We never dated and eventually lost touch. Earlier this year I ran into her on MySpace and got to talking with her again. I told her about the feeling that I still felt for her and we have been calling or emailing each other over the past few months. However, she eventually told me about the boyfriend she has been seeing for the last 1 and 1/2 years. I'm thinking she should have told be sooner instead of leading me on but at the same time, knowing myself I probably would have let go of her a lot sooner. Right now I'm still making the tough decision as to whether I wait until she breaks it off with this man or just move on. My gut tells me it's time to stop talking to her and at the same time my head tells me about the past mistakes I have made with other women. In the past, I would leave the woman and then later find out that if I had just stayed with them then I would be a much happier man. I'm thinking I should just wait a little while longer before finally making the decision that will either make me happy to be with her or continue the tradition of walking out of a person's life forever.

Always go with the gut feeling. Even for young children, we teach them to act on their gut feeling when in contact with strangers. Some people even refer to it as your inner voice.

I always consider my git feeling when making decisions or when in new situations.

Ever meet a guy a girl who just rubbed you the wrong way but you couldn't put your finger on why? That's gut feeling at work, and I trust it.

In my last 15 years of life, I learned that listening to that gut feeling is the best. For example, when I got accepted into my major at my university, I had the worst stomach pain; at the time I ignored it, but till this day I never forgot that pain; well as the years went by, and I finished my major, worked in that major, I realized it was definitely one of the biggest mistakes of my life. Right now I could be most likely in a better financial position, had I done my other major in univer, but I took the safest, most logical route at the time. After that experience, anytime I get that painful gut feeling I know 1000% sure that I'm making a wrong decision, no matter how safe and logical the decision might seem; thus, now, if logic gets on the way of my gut, I ignore the logic and I go with the gut feeling as it has never betrayed me, but I have betrayed it,and I have paid the price for doing so.

It depends on whether your gut feelings are going to get you into bad situations or not. However, if you always listen to "reason," you may be afraid to do much of anything. I think that it's safe to go with your gut as long as you know for sure that it is safe for you but to also be "wise" when it comes to making important decisions.

Always trust your gut reaction
