My Feelings are Dumb

Sometimes I hate dealing with my emotions.  FACT:  Even though I'm very much a scientist and nerd, I'm a VERY emotionally driven person.  This is why many of my decisions might seem random or impulsive.  That isn't to say I disregard reason or logic, but when I follow my gut it usually leads to positive experiences and fills me with positive energy.  Ex: desire to make enormous piles of Oreo Truffles, spontaneously taking a 10 mile hike, dancing in the rain, etc.

However, it is a VERY frustrating problem when I feel bad about something and I can't explain why.  There are few things as bad as having someone ask why you're feeling the way you do and having to reply "I just don't know."  I wish I had something reasonable to say like "I can't date a man who kicks puppies."

So here is this video dedicated to not knowing why you feel the way you do.  Maybe someday they will create colleges for our emotions and then my heart won't be so clueless.  : P
