Do you follow your head or heart? When to you listen to them? I have always listen to my heart but this time I dont know what to listen too. Im thinking of leaving the country and staring fresh because of my heart.. It has lead me down a road that I only get hurt from.. A person that says they love me keeps breaking me.. When do you decide? Its not going to be the easiest thing in the world to leave or stay but all my family are over seas too. I feel like I have been putting my life on pause for this person.. And that kills me too. I have always been a person that can pack up and go anywhere but this time it hurts thinking of either choice I have.. Help??!!

hi. i want with you this text message that I got from a friend. It says,
If your head tells you one and your heart tells you another, before you decide anything, decide first whether you have a better head or a better heart.
hope that helps. good luck to you.

One must think and follow head untill you are positive. This is the way how one survive and collects all his career goals. But wait, you should also give time for heart also, otherwise, it keeps accumulating the worries & sorrows. All those explode one day & your decision comes to be a strange one, you wander here and there.
Give room for emotions also, but responsibility should be on top when its about priority. Responsibility is driven by head. The habits that please yourself are the key that help you sustain in such critical situations. e.g building work relations, weekly off planning, talking on phone regularly with parents etc.

I think a lot about literally everything. Sometimes, i think all these thinking is wearing me out, day-by-day. As a matter of fact, i begin thinking the second i wake up from bed, which is pretty... you know... that pressuring.
But at times when thinking doesn't help in very trying situations, and it really gives you a headache (for real, that you really need a pill), i'll just stop everything for a moment, and listen and follow my heart. And surprisingly, it always help!!
As for you, if you really feel that you can't worm your way out by thinking mentally, then, go ahead, follow your heart, listen to it. Do what comes up in your mind first.

hi there. hmm what you need to do it to have a quiet time with God. ask for His guidance. just have patience on waiting for His answers. Surely, He is preparing the best for you, may it be in the place you are right now or in abroad.
God bless.

I think I'll just think first just be alone for a while. TO think more what's really best. It takes a thousand times sometimes to decide, especially when your always hurt and the pain is still there. When things are always the same nothing change I think you have to think about what really what you want for yourself first. It's not splitting up or loosing that someone. It's only time4 that can answer your question, will you use your heart or head. You can think clearly when your alone.When your so in your blinded by your feelings and emotions, I think also you have to use both weigh things first. If it's really for you sometimes it just happens. Time solve by it self. Have a nice day to you!

i've been in the same situation as you are befor my head or my heart. Instead I come up with this idea that will follow my head but somehow tolerate my heart. I'll stay in love with this guy, be the best that I can be for him, but then there will be a spand of time, if until then I still feel the same "unpreciated" then I have to let go. It's really all up to you, all we can do is advise up. hope you'll find your answer.

I have found that when both my head and my heart agree, it is the right thing to do. Other thatn that, when they do not agree, I tend to really think about the desicion at hand and explore the pros and cons, and think of how the decision can effect my future before I decide.

for me to have a relationship you need to use both your head and heart but head must role our heart so that if we got hurt we can easily move out from it.

The is a saying in Chinese "Following the heart is the right choice!"All of us seek the free life because of our heart is beating!However,the life is usually not what your heart thinks,most time ,it is hard and make you upset!Sometime we force ourself to follow the head because we have no choice!
Sorry,I feel so much about this topic and my brain is complicated.......
Just do what you want and never regret,lost4eva!By the way,Never lost next time.
