Sentimental, rationality takes all the joy and interest out of life imo. But both are important

i legit think I am perfectly equal on both

I cannot say for sure, I tend to pick choices based by what seems rational to me at the moment, however, I always end up sentimental and in a remorse to some extent cause of 'what if xyz' feedback loop, it's hard to stay one or another, at least for me

Neither.

only can pick from the 2 huh?

the heart is the engine that drives the human machine

the brain is a superfluous addon that adds a bunch of unnecessary bloat features to the machine

well they are opposites. also, it's just what you're more of, rather than what you simply are.

i find rationality paradoxically soothing, with how anxiety and paranoia-inducing the emotive side of my mind can get.

I'd say a healthy balance of both. I can let go of most old things without regret. I have no problem throwing out old toys or clothes, no matter what memories are attached to them. I don't cry over kitten pictures or sad movie scenes. I usually remain calm in stressful situations. However, I wouldn't call myself completely rational, as I tend to perceive the world through my heart - I'm a romantic, emotional daydreamer with a strong sense of intuition and imagination

I am guided by reason, not sentiment. Emotions complicate decisions and waste time.

If I feel like it I'm rational but I don't

i am an emotional trainwreck who cries or becomes saddened by the slightest inconvenience, there exists no rational thought in my honeydew brain

I would say I tend to be sentimental where rationality isn't important, and rational when it is
I think it's important to be dynamic.

There was a point where I was nearly 100% sentimental, it was a living hell, screw that.

Yes I am sentimental.

But I make decisions based on reason.

Would you say you're a more sentimental person? Or are you governed more by rationality?

The people who claim that they are rational are entirely sentimental
