Do you follow - whatever you choose to call it - as above? Got any examples of when it’s worked?

Always followed it, and so far in my 38 years it hasn't been wrong...yet. Don't wish to detail anything but never discredit it.

I do believe everyone should listen to their gut feeling and instincts more. They are a human response to a situationwhich has evolved through time to keep us safe, match us to potential mates, protect us from our environment etc.

I’ve always listened to my gut during my life, however last time I didn’t, and I ended up having my heart broken. Trust your gut instinct, it is right

Many animals don't have a lot of choice but to react to whatever their instinctive sense of drive pushes them to do: humans haven't likely lost much of our ability to sense what to do but we are incredibly biased in many different ways and, only basing our decisions without evaluation, is not making the best use of our best organ, our brain. Where we've evolved on from earlier hominids, we've got the ability to take into account the many factors that usually exist in our complex lives, which will include our gut instinct. I certainly don't advocate ignoring our gut instinct but to include it alongside all of the other data that we have.

October 2016 I didn't listen to my gut feeling. Lived to regret it

So yes now I always listen to my gut feeling

Yes I do, definitely.

Fab example (short version!) ~ the social started well, his chat soon turned towards fantasies that I find uncomfortable which was enough to put me off. I messaged him to say that I wasn't interested in meeting up with him again. I got so much abuse on here and kik, it frightened me a bit tbh because I nearly didn't send that message because he was so hot!

So now even if I get just a slight inkling that things aren't right I'm out!!

I think I have reverse gut instinct. Or I’m just plain stupid. When my gut is telling one thing, I tend to do the opposite and then live to regret it. It’s like my inner Homer takes over.

I can relate to that and like the ‘inner Homer’ analogy - I seem to think something then do the opposite. Like a test. Stupid fuck

Interesting replies, folks. Thank you.

I have quite a strong sense of intuition but don’t always ‘listen’. More fool me.

Yes I get a lot of intuitive insights and try always to follow them up. Sometimes you just know things. ...

Yes. Sir and I got together insanely quickly. On paper it was bonkers. In reality, I’m so very glad I trusted my gut instinct.

A huge part of being on Fab is trusting your gut, judgement and instinct. No fun if full of doubts.

East Sussex

When one of our children was a baby the MMR vaccination had just been introduced with accompanying controversy. I refused it for them for the main reason that I had a gut feeling about it and they'd already had measles. I was put under a lot of pressure from health professionals eventually being "invited" to the surgery to discuss the matter. The doctor I saw asked me why I'd refused it and I just said I had a gut feeling that it was wrong for them. She said that in her career she'd seen a mother's instinct be correct so many times that she was quite happy with my reason.

I almost always follow my gut feeling and I was glad on that occasion to find someone who understood.

I listen to my body and use my intuition to make connections that enables me to make decisions that for the most part serve me very well. Some decisions I have to use rational thinking, logic and systematic use of data in order to make good ones. It depends...

In martial arts we have a "feeling" called Hara-Gei. If there's a sixth sense Hara-Gei would be the seventh.

Hara is the stomach, so it follows the concept of gut feeling.....

I tend to get this feeling that something isn’t right and I used to just get on and do whatever it was and it would be all wrong, now I listen to that ‘feeling’.

The last time was when we went to a restaurant a couple of months back and we wasn’t feeling it and we both felt something wasn’t right so we paid for the drinks and left, found another restaurant and all was fine and had a brilliant night, nothing life changing but it’s the little things.

I definitely have a 6th sense, I've only ignored it a couple of times in my life... Both times turned out to be complete disasters & caused me a lot of heartache.

I won't ignore my gut ever again
