Love: Is your heart an idiot?

What is it about love and romance that tends to drive out rational thoughts and behavior?  You can be a confident, brilliant person but once you fall in love you can tumble into a deep abyss of dumbness.

I read about a documentary by Found Magazine creator Davy Rothbart, called “My Heart is an Idiot”.  The title struck me as funny but I actually have thought the same thing about my heart at times.

When you add emotion and sex to any dating “situation” you run the risk of getting caught up.  Sure, you can try to pretend that it’s not happening, but it sometimes the dumb behavior starts.

You overlook red flags, you tolerate things you never thought you would, and then you somehow believe you’re in love.  Do you think that we do the dumb things because are following our heart?

What do you think you learned from following your heart versus following your head (i.e. more logic, less emotion) in dating?

Of course there are no guarantees that you won’t ever get hurt, but what is the safest option? Wait, is safe even an option when it comes to love?!

What is the most idiotic decision you ever made about love?

What is it about love and romance that tends to drive out rational thoughts and behavior?

I think it’s the quasi-druglike induced state some people go through when they’re in love. When it’s good, it’s euphoric and all’s right with the world. When it’s bad, it can bring out some of the worst emotions in people like anger and depression. Problems ensue when people in love don’t have a good counterbalance of emotion vs. rational thought.

You overlook red flags, you tolerate things you never thought you would, and then you somehow believe you’re in love. Do you think that we do the dumb things because are following our heart?

Yes because we’re following our heart and sometimes emotion can override logic or either have the mindset that we want to be in love. But you can’t will yourself to be in love, it just happens (or doesn’t).

What do you think you learned from following your heart versus following your head (i.e. more logic, less emotion) in dating?

Try to seek a happy medium between logic and emotion. If you drift too far toward one, it may cause a problem with your relationship. I tend to be more logical and it has created issues for me, but then having your nose wide open can set you up for trouble as well. And when in love, a lot of your emotional comfort lies within the behavior of the person you’re in love with, since you’re emotionally vulnerable and their actions will often dictate your direct responses to their actions.

What is the most idiotic decision you ever made about love?

This is probably best answered by perpetrators of crimes of passion.

Have I ever done “dumb things” because of women, romance, sex, etc.??? I’ve only scratched the surface the last five years on here. Most of the time I look back and wonder if I did anything that wasn’t dumb. when it comes to relationships, I don’t get simple blinders on…I get a black garbage bag thrown over my head.

As I’ve said before, I’m not on here recounting the things I’ve done right…I’m here reflecting on all of the things I’ve done wrong, and hopefully learned from. I’ve had indicated before that I have no illusions about which is really the stronger sex…and the reason for that is that a woman’s “perfume” totally “effs” up a man’s head. He can be totally reasonable in work, in war, etc., but introduce a woman into the equation (the prettier the more dramatic the change) and he turns into a slobbering, blithering idiot. It is what it is.

Yes it is. The heart does not deal in logic and rational. It looks past all of the blazing red flags and seeks only what makes it feel good…even if it’s for a short time. It is the part of you that becomes bored or disillusioned when things don’t go as planned and the brain says “See, I told you.” Women are 70% heart (emotion) and 30% mind (logic). Men tend to be 40% lust, 20% heart and 40% brain. Women see a picture of what they want and desire, sometimes since childhood. The feeling of being wanted and needed. They have the dreamy world of the princess and the prince riding off into the sunset to live happily ever after.

Men have that same dream, but comes woth a few extra links. Snow White is wearing stilletos, thigh highs and can barely wait until they get to the castle before she tears his clothes off. Then she asks if her super hot best friend can join in. LOL

Most of the time, the heart becomes disappointed because the reality of the situation rarely lives up to the build up, at least after the first few months. I think that LUST is more realistic in it’s expectations. It focuses on the here and the now. The brain notices the red flags and files them away. It sends the “Spidey Sense” when the virus rears it’s head and says “OK, this is something you need to notice and deal with now.” The heart says “It’s OK. He/She is entitled to a few of these, but the heart doesn’t keep count. It dismisses them until the brain says “If you keep going in this direction, you’re gonna pay for it”. By this time the heart has on blinders until it’s too late.

I’ll stick with LUST, thank you very much.

Never let your heart interfere with what your brain says. Most of the time, relationships don’t live up to the hype and while getting hurt or disappointed is unavoidable, it can be tempered. Deal with the REAL world and then see if your heart has any differing opinions. Food, Water and Sex rein supreme in the real world. Don’t believe me? Look at the media. The media is a form of satisfaction to the whims and wants of society. Tou gotta have food, you gotta have water and sex is on the mind of everyone. If love develops as a result, that’s icing on the cake.

There is no thing like love in reality…at least not in the rpmantic novel sense. Respect? Yes. Being considerate? Yes. But to hang your hat on Sleeping Beauty or Prince Charming as a standard love story is foolish and dumb. There is compatability and friendeship and aside from that, it’s all smoke and mirrors.

Falling in Love. The emotional exchange. The giving of one’s self to another is tricky on a good day and can be down right treacherous the other 6days.
I don’t think I ever went into a relationship with a feeling of just falling and floating along aimlessly.
I dove in as a willing participant.
The key thing I learned is to know when it’s over and leave.

Staying with the wrong person hoping it would get better and knowing deep down that it wouldn’t. Now that I am out of it and over it I have met a fantastic man and I am so much happier. It would have been best to listen to my mind….but like most people I held on until until I was finally pushed past my boundaries which MADE me make a change….

“Wait, is safe even an option when it comes to love?!”

I ran the health and safety one time for a cell phone tower build. The guys whose job was to build it piece by piece up into the sky wore t-shirts that said “A life lived in fear is a life half lived”. Love is like that…if you hold back out of fear, then you only experience a small bit of the joy, the intoxication, the highs and lows that make love AND life worth living at all.

In other words, in spite of it all, jumping in with both feet is still the best way IMHO. Throw caution to the wind and savor the insanity. ;-)

Yeah, I harp on the reality of life v the fantasy all the time (on here and in real life).

Romantic movies are fictional, the stories your homegirls (homeboys too) tell you are edited heavily, and – most important- what you (or the people you ask for advice/ ibtch to) think your love should be has nothing to do with the reality when of the person you’re dealing with.

Being in love is a selfish emotion. It makes you think, act, and behave selfishly – like crack. Showing, receiving, and giving love should provide the real world context that informs your actions when dealing with your chosen mate.

Are you/she/he going to act stupidly – yeap; if you didn’t humans would propogate as a specie.

Should Love keep you on stupid – nope; not if it’s real and growing.

I would like to think that following the heart, falling in love and staying in love is the end all, beat all. But life is the best, abet, cruel teacher. She gives you the answers first, then asks the questions. I will never, EVER get married again. Now if I can just get out of this one without being reduced to the pauper I was when I graduated from college. It doesn’t look that good…..

High 5’s Lovely Brown. I’ve stayed in relationships too long because we were simply golden when we were in bed together. Outside of that, we argued, did things differently and had different opinions about everything. But for those two hours, we managed to tolerate each other and enjoy it to the max. It is indeed a powerful drug and very addicting.

Morning,

Ah yeah, been there done that. Mind altering sex..lol Like MCH said, in bed it was all good, out of bed and everywhere else it was chaotic and volatile. The more I was with him and the longer (aside from sex) the more I disliked him. As the saying goes, familiarity breeds contempt. As “pristine” as my rearing was he was the one and only dude that after so long a time of not liking one another, I evolved to doing the “do” with him, void of emotions, no feelings…just great sex. Only problem with that would be getting rid of him….ugh Yeah, that’s my kid’s father.

Have there been others that I’ve had an idiotic heart for? Not so much. Not saying there haven’t been times when I would have done different but an idiot for? Not really. IMO and strictly that, idiotics should lay to those of a certain age and time. No matter how much in love you think or feel, you should be able to discern when you treading dangerously stupid waters. Just my thoughts on this :)

Good morning! Nice comments.

Love: Is your heart and idiot! YEP! When the lustfulness abates, and you actually start dealing with each other on a more rational plane, perhaps you’ll be able to not have your nose stretched too wide open. This is when you can take off the colored glasses and see things with a clear lens. We all do stupid things in love, but when you deal with logic and with eyes wide opened, some idiotic antics hopefully can be avoided.

Been there, done that. That’s what the term “Friends with Benefits” comes from. No strings attached, but you both know that in bed, you can blow each other’s doors off. I mean I dated the guy for as long as I did JUST because he could do things that STILL make me remember him fondly….and wish for a few more meetings with him. Ever heard someone say “I would date him just so I could **** him.” Well, he was that guy.

Morning All!

I’ve done dumb things because I was in lust or deep like. Yeah, staying with the wrong one way too long, hoping things would get better is at the top of the list.

The ones I’ve actually loved, a mature love, made me make more rational decisions regarding them. The love was not reckless.

I enjoyed fairytales as a child and romance novels and romantic comedies as I’ve grown older. But I never recall any of them having any influence over any decisions I’ve made in real life. I just can’t fathom that, though I suppose it happens since it comes up often on this blog. I’ve had it drilled in my head to just deal with the real.

Your heart is not dumb, it’s genuine. We (our minds) are dumb for allowing the heart to pursue desire for desire’s sake, with no contraints or inhibitions. It is the mind’s job to determine when the pursuit of our desires is potentially adverse to our overall well-being.

You have no.idea how often people are trapped in that fantasy (of their own creation no less). The imbue the person with traits they don’t possess, attributes they don’t have, all in an attempt to reconcile their hearts to their minds.

For me, it (mature love) is/was being able to say “I don’t like that you do ‘x’, but I love/like you enough to deal with it.”

@SlimNu

Bad sex will get you a cab ride home, after the door is shut with my back to you talking on the phone (loudly) to my special friend.

I think some of you are hormonal or something, with your singular fixation on sex. It’s like it’s what you live for.

Don’t blame your heart for being an idiot — you don’t think with your heart, it’s just a muscle. If you allow emotions to override rationale, then chances are yes, you’re being an idiot, or at least taking a big chance. I should know, I’ve been a complete idiot and taken very foolish chances in the past. Still do. Bummer.

MC Hammock

SlimNu, yep it is. None of that would make a difference. Relationships always boil down to the two of you. Some people get so caught up in the kids, domestic stuff and other sidelines that they forget the most important things…each other. Since sex is a huge part of a relationship, if it played a large part in the compatability scheme and it isn’t there, that’s a recipe for disaster. maybe some people don’t put it very high on the totem pole, but I do. If you develop a disliking to it or you put it way behind the other parts, that’s when the dike starts crumbling. It’s OK for a brief period, but if it starts out that way, there’s no way to go but down.

I agree with abc’s post. I think some things can and should be chaulked up to experience but repeated offenses only to laid blame to blinded by love is just an excuse.

Those other things are important – no doubt.

But, if the sex isn’t good, there’s a space created for someone else to fill.

Not to say that great sex is anymore or less important than parenting, cooking skills, or being a good person/partner; just another area (sometimes a big one) where Mr. or Mrs. Charlie can come right on it and mess up a hole heap of stuff.

Sometimes you follow your heart sometimes you follow your mind. Make a wise decision after consulting both of them. Maybe I am different, I love sex and I like to have it. But it is not the mandatory must have, to me it’s maybe 20% of a factor in the relationship. Laugh if you want but I don’t even think I would break up with someone if the sex was less than stellar, I would enjoy it for what it is and be thankful I have the other 80% and it’s not so important for me to go out and get my rocks off and risk losing that 80% that I do like just for a outstanding orgasm.

Afternoon All,

Not much to add to the topic. For me personally I can honestly say I never really dealt with all the emotional angst. For the longest time I was pretty much void of emotional attachment when dealing with Women. From as far back as I can remember now looking back on it I was pretty callous when it came to matters of the heart. So no it wasnt any brain VS heart battles in this camp.

And I have to apologize for my assumptions about the book prior to actually reading it. This is not the standard The-Rules-Steve-Harvey-I’ma-tell-you-how-to-get-a-man-in five-steps book.

Desire overcomes logic, and rationalization rules the day. This same situation is seen with “Gold Fever” when otherwise smart people make dumb decisions because they think the decisions will make them rich. This can be done all by themselves, or helped along by confidence men and women. Men use women’s desires to be loved and valued to make the women unloved and valuless. Women use men’s desires to be loved and valued to make the men poor and discarded after the money is gone.

Smartness has never been a shield against desire. Sometimes, the smarter you are, the more stupid the mistake. After all, if you are too dumb to understand the payoff, you are too dumb to bet much.

If a chic is young to relatively young,and dude is young too,the most complaining attribute is not her sexual prowess. It’s most def her character and most dudes will want to train her themselves or learn tgerher at best.

Now if the chic is much older and dude is about same age or older,in his mind he knows she a run thru so he is happier if her prowess measures up and she the general character is good. At an older age I would think that folks communicate about s3x more openly than they do at a younger age. That’s a plus. At that age,why marry a dud?

SexyC – I’m not knocking reading, there much to be said from a book…I agree. But there are some folks that have acquired skills by getting their training on the job. I guess I see practice or book skills both as a means to an end. I don’t have any formal education and really for every position I’ve had in this organization since 2004 it’s been sink or swim. Mastered by way of experience. Good thing I can swim…lol

Personally I won’t read books on child rearing because frankly that crap unfolds from day to day and you NEVER know which day you want to strangle the little seed… Of course I wouldn’t read up on sex or relationships either. I don’t think a book can encompass the many facets we tend to go in life. Unless a book captures the experience of many, that person may be an expert but IMO that’s their experience. Heck I’m an expert with my experience :) Anyway, that’s for another day. I will though read books on illnesses (symptons, medicines, etc), on different kind of foods, biographies, life stories but not on issues where each one of us differ depending upon experience…like I said though that’s for another day

Meelow – The Internet as we know it dates back to at least 1983, actually prior to, but that’s neither here nor there in this instance.

The Joy of Sex was first published in 1972 – the year I was born.

The Kama Sutra dates back to the second century.

I promise you folks have been writing about sex since prior to 1996.

And quite frankly, ANYbody who has read this blog, for any length of time, even if it’s the only reading that you have ever done in your life, has read about and discussed sex.

A good swish of Listerine can give you similar effects…it wears off faster than a mint or anything else would. However, unless you’re comfy having the candy in your mouth at the same time, I’d proceed with caution.

He wore that stinking tee-shirt for months and this is how you show your appreciation by sticking your nose in the air to “management.” No disrespect, but you sound like a big bad beast here on the blog, but you were mild, meek wanting to get back on.
