This post is just a refresher for the good old "Humans are mostly driven by emotions, not logic!" core post that i wrote here a year ago, which I still think is the most important of them all.
Today I want to show you again why this is true, to better help you internalize this crucial and important understanding, and to also show it from a different angle using different examples, both from MY OWN life and from my friend's lives.
So lets start with BASIC first facts :
We all know that emotions are real and they exist.
We can feel them in our physiology and in the body.
I think the most obvious way to show you just how powerful they are is simply by looking at your actions. Just look at what you did this week : You are reading this blog, hence you obviously want to get laid more and meet more chicks. How many times did you go out this week to meet women ? How many women did you approach this week ? If you haven't done any, can you answer the question : Why is it, when you want something, you still dont do anything towards getting it ?
If you'll dig into that question, you'll obviously find no logical answer, because there is no logical answer here. You're obviously not thinking in a logical way here. Because the logic says : More women you approach, more women you meet, more women you lay. Simple logic.
If you still find yourself, despite that logic, not doing anything to approach more women, then obvisouly it isnt logic that drives you here, but its some kind of an emotion, fear, despair, etc, whatever.
I will bring another example now from my own.
Sometimes I masturbate, yep I admit it. I dont know if any of you ever do it, but I usually dont realy feel that great afterwards, I'd rather fuck a woman instead of masturbating. But, when the feeling of arousal grows and you reach that point where your dick is erect and you're almost about to explode, your logical thinking disappears. Even when you know that you wont feel great about it afterwards, the feeling becomes so strong that it makes it hard for you to even be able to relax your mind and calm it down around it ! The only way to calm it, is by releasing it. So then, your mind finds logical reasons why its "ok" to dump it. These "logical excuses" that the mind brings up why its "ok" to go along with what you feel, is just one example here of how the way you feel completely changes the way you act, think and believe about something, to the point where it overrides your logical thinking to support the emotion you feel and make sense of it !! (aka "rationalizing")
Another example of it - How many of you ever had these mornings where you just didnt want to wake up? Your clock rang at 8am, and you promised to yourself last night that you will wake up, and then when the clock starts to ring, and you're all tired and exhausted, your mind will immediately start in bringing up logical "excuses" as to why its "ok to continue sleeping.." , and then you just fall asleep again, wake up at 11am or even worse 12pm, and then you just feel shit that half your day just went away ?
Now I bring even another example, this time from a friend of mine :
One of my good friends just recently ended a 10 months relationship with a chick. This chick was a bastard kind of person and she was with him only because of his appartment, and even though my friend had told me that he wanted to break up from her 5 months ago, he didnt.
Why, you may ask? Well, simply because "He loved her", thats what he said at least, but truth was simply the sex with her was great for him! He was so addicted to the sex with her that he just didnt, and couldn't want to leave her. I mean, what guy will just "let go" of something like that? Even though he knew, on a logical level, that she sucks as a person, and even though she pissed him off more than once, the good feelings he got from the sex with her, which he was so addicted to, completely blinded his consciousness from the rather logical truth that I, and his family could see ! His mind kept bringing "excuses" as to why keep going with her! He still stayed with her due to the great sex they had. And now, 1 month after they broke up, even though I asked him to stop talking about her, he simply can't. He keeps bringing up her name again, and again, and again, and he just cant seem to forget her.
Im sure that last one is something you can all relate with - being so dependant on a chick's sex, that it makes you so blind to the fact she treats you like shit and actually hurts you time and time again, the common syndrome "oneitis" that is coined in the PU community is exactly this.
I could also bring here the example of people who smoke cigarettes, and the "rationalizations" they give you as to why they can't stop smoking .. or why they "don't want to stop" .. but im sure you get where im driving with this ..
So now Im asking you this again - If we, guys, can be so strongly driven by our emotions, so much that it overrides our logical thinking, it overrides our actions, it overrides our decisions and it overrides our beliefs .. to say that women don't act the same when they have strong emotional response ??
This would be totally absord.
Chicks are way more emotional than us, so if we can be this strongly driven by emotions and feelings, consider women to be just the same.
