Are you a more emotional or a more rational type of person?

Question

Don't just say "emotional" or "rational".

Enhance your answer by expressing any emotion or thought which reveals that (and which might also enable me to choose a best answer).

Answer 1

I'd say I'm a rational person to a certain extent then become over emotional. For example you could sit there and make fun of me and at first I wouldn't do nothing but if you carried on it would only take a funny look for me to explode in your face and let out a lot of anger through violence.soz thats jus the way I am. Actually the only real emotional I have are joy when I crack jokes or anger when I'm arguin or fighting.

Answer 2

Both.

I can be emotional in the sense that I can let my Anger take control and lose all Rationality.

But In better times when I can subdue the Anger, I can rationalize things to see a better and more appropriate side of things for the better.

Answer 3

Emotional on the inside and rational on the outside?

I do get emotional sometimes. But I prefers to hide it inside me, as I finds that sometimes wearing my heart on my sleeve just gets me into so much complications. Others will never understand it. So I just fake a rational person on the outside.

Answer 4

My thinking used to be dominated by emotional type thoughts, but that got me into trouble, because I would start making assumptions about things and people and not listening. But I am a more rational thinker now and I think this is better, but I still like to keep my gut instinct about certain things.

Answer 5

I am rational in my ability to think things through objectively. I am usually emotional in my response to events around me though. I suppose I am a little of both

Answer 6

Rational and logical, emotions just cloud the issue with "feelings".

Answer 7

i'm much more rational. i worked in military intelligence for 20 years where emotion does NOT play any part. since my retirement, i've worked mostly law enforcement type jobs, again where emotion will hamper your performance. i'm rational by nature, and my work experience has just reinforced that trait.

Answer 8

I am both emotional and Rational. I am not extreme in any case.

Answer 9

im more of a rational being,in a way that i handle things maturely...i mean at 18 years old, i dont find people who act like me..im friends with people who are in their 30s and they tell me that sometimes they feel that im just as the same age as them..from the way i act to the way i give out advices, my friends would be awestrucked by how i do things my way..

Answer 10

i am more rational. i like to take a step back and really understand a situation.
