Ima very rational person. I don’t like being romantic very much at all

Does that bother Maddie, Nate?

Nick

Nice.

I think I’m more of a romantic because I’m my own person and really don’t try to be like everyone else or fit in and think for myself rather than go off other people’s opinions.

That’s good though

In regards to love it is important to listen to yourself not others. That’s a very mature outlook.

Aimee

I think I’m more rational because I usually try to think things through logically before acting and will usually do whatever logically makes sense.

Nate

Very interesting, Aimee..

Nick

Makes sense but sometimes I feel like that’s not exciting

Thinking only in a rational manner in regards to romantic relationships can have both benefits and downfalls. You can over think or you can allow yourself to be blinded by love. There should always be a balance.

That’s good

Emotion can be misleading. If you think about a situation carefully than you will make the right choice 99% of the time

Joe

I consider myself a rational person I don’t take risks I stick to what I know

Nate

Like not putting oil in your truck?

Will

I think of my self both ways Romantic and rational based on the situations I am on.

Nutt

I guess I'm more rational. I don't believe in romantics and all that love crap. The only things I love are my family and money.

Aimee

Good response.

Will

4/9/2019 10:08:23 am

I consider myself to be a rational person, I stick with facts more often than not

Nick

4/9/2019 10:08:29 am

I think I’m more rations because I think about what I’m going to do before I actually do it.

Hailey Jo

I would fall in the middle of a rational person and a romantic. I’ll take risks for the right person but I definitely think about my actions beforehand.

Kayla

4/9/2019 10:12:34 am

Understandable

Cherish

4/10/2019 10:05:28 am

I too am more in the middle of both.

Kayla

4/9/2019 10:11:26 am

More rational than anything. If I know that it’s not a good idea then what’s the point.

Hailey Jo

4/9/2019 10:13:08 am

Taking the risk is fun sometimes, not knowing how it’ll go!

Cherish

4/10/2019 10:06:52 am

I have to agree with Hailey on this. If I know it’s going to end poorly I won’t take the risk, but if I think it could end well then why not take a risk?

Cherish

I don’t really consider myself one or the other. I could swing both ways I think. Most of the time it depends on the situation and who I’m with.

Kiana Farnworth

I would say I’m romantic in a rational way. I expect effort and love but I’m not unrealistic in my standards. I understand that life isn’t a movie. Things aren’t always roses and chocolate. A relationship takes time and effort always, you will have great times and you will also have hard times.

James

I consider myself a rational person because I tend to think things through and come to logical conclusions.

Robyn

4/10/2019 10:12:48 am

I would say that I’m somewhere in the middle. I’m usually more rational than not, but I also base a lots of things off of how I feel about the situation.

Brenna

I think it's important to be a little of both.

Katelyn

I’m a rational person but there are times when I tend to be a romantic because it relieves feelings and sometimes help with rationalizing.

Brenna

4/16/2019 10:25:02 am

I agree, being romantic can relieve some feelings.

Brenna

4/16/2019 10:23:43 am

I consider myself both. I tend to change depending on who I'm with and how I feel that day.
