95% accurate. That doesn't mean I listen to it, though.

I'm not even going to bother reading the rest of the thread. I had red flags going up as soon as I got married. If you haven't ejected yet, do so before it's too late. |

I've ignored guts before but usually its like 85 - 95% right. Just abort if its in your mind. If its something little, obviously little that could be putting you off it might not be a big deal but way its been for me is it ends up becoming a big deal because you'll want to abort later ...
 listen to the gut!

My gut is more accurate than the atomic clock.
For instance, this guy approached me last week and offered me $50 to do some modeling in a truck stop motel, said he was a highpowered talent scout for a male-modeling agency. I've always considered myself a handsome gent, so I figured what the hey. My gut said he wasn't on the level, and it turns out I was right. I knew as soon as I saw the ball gag and chinese basket rig it wasn't an honest deal. Oh well, I needed the $50. |

Pretty darned accurate.
Haven't been wrong yet. Probably would have had a lot less pain and suffering if I'd listened in the first place. |

99.99% accurate.

My gut instincts are 100% accurate. Now if I'd just listen to them 100% of the time I'd be much better off.

Are you trying to say that you wouldn't be married if you had?  Sorry, just tryin' to put a few words in your mouth. No disrespect to either you or J.

About 90% accurate. Wish I'd heed them more. Oh wait, there's one right now...
Nevermind, just those fajitas from lunch talking back to me.

My Gut Feeling has been right on several occasions. I had a friend and her finace was cheating on her. I told her not to marry him because they would be divorced in a year.
She married him and a year later they got a divorce. She started dating this guy while she was still married to her husband,and I told her that he would do the same thing to her. Guess what,I was right again. I always trust my gut Feeling because it has never steered me wrong. I told another friend that he and his wife were going to have a little boy,he said they were having a girl. My gut feeling said it was a boy,and sure enough they had a boy. I'm pretty good with my gut feelings for other people. Mona |

If I paid attention to my gut feelings, my life would be so boring.
No stress, no drama swirling around me, no liars to sift through for truth, no heart My gut said it hates me.

It depends on what your gut responds to, but it sounds like you had more than gut to go on at the beginning with her. The thing that identifies "flakey" is your brain. But, don't make the mistake of thinking you'll find a woman who is rock solid on everything you are.

No, but I have heard of Gavin De Becker before. I can't remember what book of his it was, but I know one of them came very highly recommended from a person I trust. |

Just when through the SAME thing! If I would have posted on ARF what was going on I know I would have gotten the Eject! Eject! Eject! response but I went in anyway and got burned

I would say my gut is about 85% accurate. It used to be 100% accurate, but I've changed my values a lot (was veering on socialist/libertarian 6 years ago to now much more like a republican)...and I can no longer make gut judgements as quickly, cuz my OLD ideals conflict with my new ones. SO now I have to sit back and think a bit before I go with my gut. However, for judging on the opposite gender... I think it's still 95% accurate.

You've gotta start taking this approach: - Actually, we've only done this twice. - How did you do? - Crashed and burned on the first one. - And the second? - I'll tell you tomorrow. But it's looking good so far.

I'll bet you were very internally-conflicted six years ago.
