Feeling vs Thinking
So I've been thinking about feelings. Or maybe feeling about thinking? It came about when someone said "But you know I love you". What an interesting statement! It assumes so much. Way too much in fact. Let's call the speaker Person 1 "Feeler" as they have already stated they feel something. Let's call Person 2 "Thinker" as they have obviously thought and questioned the validity of the feelings. Let's break down the short sentence from Feelers perspective. But - Sounds like an argument really, they are disputing what Thinker has said, and they have a different view point. It's a positive one in this case, the feeling being one of love. But is in a small way counteracting that as it's giving a positive emotion in a negative form. What does a child say when you make their favourite cookie and they're not in the mood "BUT I don't like it today!" How do you feel when you hear the word But? I've heard it too
