Relationships - Decisions Based on Real Life, Not Emotions

Hmmm.. so are feelings invalid?

[@dianej8779]

Feelings can be filtered through our anxieties or fears or other neediness due to our own 'trauma'.

Feelings are valid but we need to be very careful about making decisions based on feelings
