Jane Austin's Sense and Sensibility 2. Where do Logic and Love intersect? Somewhere in the Australian outback, obviously! hahahaha In all seriousness, the topic of love is probably the only thing I could never approach with logic. However, my expression of that emotion was often wildly inappropriate. I'd follow my crush around. I'd declare my undying love far too early in the game. I'd cry often and throw dramatic fits. Breakups and rejection were soul-killing. And on top of it all, I'm gay, so there's that whole different dynamic as well. I had to LOL at your description of the guy who used a spreadsheet to quantify your relationship! It sounds horrid and naughty, but sometimes I wish I could've done that. Might've saved me some heartache. (maybe not) When I saw the title of this post, I immediately thought of two things:

We do what seems natural to us. I'm thinking of a checkbox system myself... Must rack up a certain # of check marks to date! Ha! It doesn’t surprise me that you intellectualized dating!
