(((((Lovebirds))))) I have been married for the last 10 years to a wonderful man. I also work with my emotions while he uses cool logic. In the beginning I use to get so upset because he responded with logic to my outbursts of feelings. I felt that he wasn't understanding me or wanting to give me confirmation that my emotions had validity. Through the years of growing, I now find I am grateful he kept a cool head during the storms. When I stopped demanding that he"feel" and started listening to his logic, I began to understand that he was trying to center me and calm me. It was like when I was in therapy and stopped resisting treatment, clarity and control began to show up for me. Nowadays, I rely on his cool logic and relies on my emotions to get to the heart of the matter. He needed his space just like I needed mine and we had to learn when to close the gap between us and when to back up and give each other room. I hope that you and yours can bring it together and work out the differences. Keep the faith.
