Has your "gut feeling" ever been wrong?

[ShaunaM95]

I was told some information this morning about a person who I initially had a really bad feeling about since I first met them over 6 months ago. This information confirmed my gut feeling was right all along, even though everyone else told me I was being paranoid, I was wrong, reading too much into things etc.

Every time I've had a gut feeling like that it's always been correct. Just wondering does the same happen everyone else? Or has yours ever been wrong before?

your guy feeling is hardly ever wring, it helps keep you out of trouble or problems in relationships. like if yu might a guy who is happy caring only focuses on you and is everything you want a guy too be but your guy says to run away you might should do that.

because he could be abusive or something your gut is 100% more accurate than your heart which will lie to you

thank you for MHO

I think that the gut feeling is less of an instinct and more of a calculated estimate based on the initial information that you are presented with. We are blessed with perception for a reason, in order to weigh up potential threats quickly enough to navigate our way around dangers. It is actual analysis rather than sixth sense, that's my take on it.

[Warmapplecrumble]

I agree :-)

[melanieeeB]

Yes I always get it right, can't remember a situation where my gut feeling was wrong
and in the end its always like "I knew it" still tho even if I have a feeling, I will sometimes do it and in the end yeah, well I knew it

[Warmapplecrumble]

My gut feeling is right 80 percent of the time, and I do feel like its a probability your brain makes based on how one presents themselves.

My gut instinct has always been right. Sometimes I felt just a slight bit of doubt, that turned out to be right afterwards.

i can only recall one time I had a gut feeling. I was playing baseball in my backyard with some of the other kids in the neighborhood. Suddenly I got the sense I was standing a bit too close to the plate and moved. Three pitches later, the pitcher threw a wild ball that went right to where I was standing.

Nine is almost correct... Actually one of my friend didn't got selected in an interview because of this gut feeling and I myself had met an accident because of this gut feeling

[anonyms483]

Mine*

Why are u asking such questions? Did anything bad happened with you?

[ShaunaM95]

Not really, I just had a bad feeling someone and it turns out I was right to have that feeling about them is all. I'm gonna learn to trust my gut instinct more often now.

[anonyms483]

Always trust it... they give you different sense... just keep calm... and u will always feel the same...
by the way... U r biochemist right? I pinged you... I wish if we could have a talk? @Shauna95

[LightningXombat1]

Gut feeling is what answer you get from your inner conscious. Gut feelings are usually correct... There r chances it goes wrong. So there is absolutely nothing to worry about. Right people?

[siuxoes]

I have those. I call them "subconscious thoughts". I don't normally listen to them just to find out I should have.

I guess that with time we developed this kind of " system" to prevent us.

[AlexEfron]

When it comes to life decisions my gut feeling is 90% correct but when it comes to solving multiple choice questions in exams its 60% wrong 😂😂

[ShaunaM95]

😂😂😂 I wish I had a gut feeling like that when I did my exams 😂😂

[AlexEfron]

😂😂

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

I agree with you my gut feeling always turns out to be right
if I'm talking to a new girl just as a friend and things happen
i always say yes my gut feeling was right.

[Hans222]

It's not always right but 80% of the time it is :D
When my lower belly says someone is not okay usually it proves right some time later...

[singha]

no one is perfect, so everyone is bound to make mistakes sometime in the future, so of course you will be proven right some time in the future...

[sarath1997]

yep i had got some wrong feeling too , I mean about people... , no one can predict a persons true nature , until they want to show it...

[realperson02]

yes my "gut feeling" has been wrong a few times. but it's mostly accurate. after that , i learned never to listen to girls when they say they are "good girls".

[Paris13]

Yes, but Many Times down the Lines, I am Right on Cue. xx

[akadatank44]

Yes always trust my gut. I've gotten those too where it's lile I don't like your vibe for some reason because it's just doesn't feel right. And then it ends up to show their true colors or whatever.

[3-BakersBread-3]

Yes but I look more into things than to base my decisions on gut feelings.

[GrumpyGoo]

Never, my gut feeling is always right. (Not left for sure, lol)

[genericname85]

sadly it´s mostly right xD it´s my heart that´s always wrong and my brain keeps listening to my heart and not my gut xD if that makes any sense.

[Warmapplecrumble]

Yes :')

[FýrdracaDócincel]

I don't remember any time it has been wrong. But I'm sure it was at some point.

[Dme500]

my gut is always wrong. i don't even trust it anymore. i just make friends and hope for the best.

[Anonymous]

Yeah during exam i thought. That i will fail but the teacher said that my paper was avey good attempt😅

[Nahid1234]

No because you should follow your gut feeling and your heart about things 💜

[Dr_Latex_McPeggin]

When it comes to sketchy situations my gut is about 95% right so I usually stick with it...

[singha]

could it be that you just have hindsight bias, and you are cherry picking your data? personally, my gut is almost always wrong
