Ever had a "Gut Feeling" about something? : Othor Games

» Sun Jan 19, 2014 7:07 am

I am being a little serious here... So no religion, no jokes, etc... I'm talking about have you ever just had this strange gut feeling about a choice? Either being it a romantic choice, friends, school, etc... Whatever! You just had this feeling where it seems that you gotta pick this one choice... Like seriously! I don't know how to explain much more but if ya truly had it, I think ya might know what I'm talking about...

As for myself... Well I kinda am having one now or recently (Today/last night recently) and ye'h... I'll put it into a spoiler.

Spoiler

For awhile now... I've been seeing this one guy though we weren't doing anything romantic yet but definably had it planned down the road... We were just chatting and hanging about... Nothing biggy...

Then last night I ended up playing spin the bottle in a chatroom online with a few friends of mine that I knew for awhile... At one point, the bottle kept landing on this one girl for me and vice versa... It was just going between me and her for almost an hour and we were just having a blast messing around with one another and learning about one another... Finally, decided to have a private chat with her and long story short... I like her.

And this morning, I was planning to get some pictures from my phone to share with my one friend (The guy I mentioned in first paragraph and reason being: a dare I got. {I played a private game of TorD with him}) and Idky but my phone is refusing to properly load the SD card... Saying it is damaged yet it worked last night when I did the dare...

And now I just have this feeling like I should just drop him and well go after her... You know? This just gut feeling... It's strange but ye'h... That's what I mean.

I try really hard to dismiss "gut feelings" at work. Especially when it comes to suspected child abuse. Only on TV do those inner feelings that move people turn out to be right all the time.

Rarely, but when i do they usually prove to be correct.

Or maybe i only remember the ones that turned out to be correct :lmao:

Yepp I know what you're getting at, I have it fairly often, I'm quite intuitive I think.

At the store where I work whenever I see a couple where one of the two has a bruised face I look at the knuckles of the person they are with. Not consciously it just seems to be the first thing I do every time I see that. But I know that in most cases it's just an accidental black eye or bruise.

As for Jusey, listen to your brain, not your gut. Thinking about things > following your feelings.

Hope he dumps you before you get the chance. You are genuinely considering dumping your boyfriend with no reason or prior conviction on the basis of nothing more than fancying some girl you've played spin the bottle with. Online spin the bottle. You are dumping someone because you fancy an online person you spent a few hours with. You should be disgusted with yourself. You don't deserve to be happy.

And in answer to your question, yes you should leave him. Not because you should go after this girl, but because you have already cheated on him, even if only with your mind. You obviously have no respect for him. The girl aside, you should leave him because you're not good enough for him.

I don't think he's his boyfriend...

Anyway.. nop, I never follow my gut feeling. It's always wrong. Last time I decided to follow it, it ended in one big catastrophe. However, looking back on it, at first it was soooooo worth it. At the end it just svcked..

Oh well

They why use the phrase "I should just drop him"? However you class their relationship, I find this abhorrent.

Only when playing Left 4 dead.

"Why do I get the feeling there's a tank in here?"

*Cue tank*

Stop dating him. Drop that part of the relationship you have and just keep him as a friend? It happens so often that you're dating someone and it turns out not to click or you meet someone else with whom it clicks a lot better. So you drop the previous one... Nothing abhorrent about it.

You do realize he wasn't my boyfriend... We weren't even dating or anything... We were just hanging out and only knew of one another for about month. We did had ideas of maybe POSSIBLY one day (Like in a year or so) to start dating and seeing if we will romantically like one another, rather than just like each other as friends... Plus he was online too (Though both him and the girl don't live that far from me so the whole online thing isn't going to last long either way anyways).

He doesn't know her... So I'm confused on here.

Drop as in drop the relationship thing we had going that would make our friendship lead into a romantic one... We weren't actually dating.

I wish to keep him as a friend, yes.

I meant as in your boyfriend. Was trying to explain it to Bonalste...

» Sun Jan 19, 2014 12:56 pm

Um. I'm male. (Due to grammar laws, the "her" should be referencing me if you are talking about me and the other guy).

» Sun Jan 19, 2014 1:28 pm

Hahaha, I'll change that. couldn't smell that... so sorry :smile:

anyway, I'd say you should just follow your gut...If she can make you forget about him that fast then you're probably a lot more attracted to her anyway.

I wholeheartedly apologise. I totally misunderstood (because I only skimmed your post - naughty me) the situation with the other guy. You are not in a relationship with him, and discussing the possibility of a future relationship is not a promise of one. It doesn't even make sense to me - you either like each other so want a relationship now, or you one of you doesn't so you won't have one now. If in the future something changes about that, cross that bridge when you come to it. In the meantime, the world is yours to enjoy, so see what this girl's about. Don't go telling this fella that you're dropping ideas of a future relationship with him, though. In my opinion, even though I don't think that there can ever be an idea of having a relationship in the future (love waits for neither time nor money), that doesn't mean that in the future, i.e, when the future is 'now', you won't want one with him, so there's no point in burning any bridges. Have fun and enjoy the stimulation that this situation gives you. You player, you!

I had a feeling like that, yeah. Someone who was rather "close" to me had a pregnancy scare, and that hit me pretty hard. By the time I made my suggestion as to what to do, turns out it was a false alarm. I didn't like that feeling.

Going with your gut feeling is as reliable as thinking with the thing between your legs. Use your brain.

I get gut feelings very often, and most of the time(almost every single time it happens) it turns out that I was right. Which svcks because I always dismiss such feelings.

However, when you're trying to decide whether or not to spend money on a new car, that's when your gut is unreliable. When you're dealing with emotional decisions, your gut is the only thing you can trust.
