I cannot see how I could ever separate the 3.
I "read" people. I grew up in a very disfunctional household so picking up on "vibes" from other people comes very easily and naturally to me.

Perhaps I thought too hastily though in answering the poll. I am, like it or not, probably guided by empathy more than anything else.
Like, if I run into a stranger who is violently posturing (intuition/observation), reason first tells me to keep a safe distance. But then empathy kicks in and I read into what could be making the stranger behave in such a way. Was he laid off, had a fight with the wife or a friend, just having a bad day? Then I'll take in more cues- is he chopping at his words, what is he doing with his hands (palms up, down, fisted).

All of this information, for me at least, is mostly processed on a subconscious level in moments.
When confronted by such a person, though, I try to reach them with reason but I first approach with a smile and submissive posturing.

So then... what am I ruled or guided by most lol?
