giving it some thought, or is your reaction more of an instantaneous one?

In most things I react rather quickly. Large decisions etc I do take time to think things through. Sometimes my way works, sometimes it don't

Im cat like

Snap reaction

I never react...I am strictly pro active. I cause all the sh*t that everyone else has to react to

depends on the situation

Probally rt. away with no thought.....That's probally what keeps me in trouble....

I try not to react quickly, but alot of times I do

What exactly? Can you be a little more specific? For instance, a car crash, I would have no chance to act later. Know what I mean?

as the situation warrants

i always try to think things out...gut reactions can get you killed be seeing you

use your imagination.......lol hell I dunno..you're trying to diffuse a bomb

throw it in the river

if i have time to think before i react then i think and then react if i dont have the time then i react first which usually ends badly for all involved lol

if its something tragic, i think through what needs to be said and done before i react

I am a pretty impulsive person and tend to think with my heart and go with my first gut reaction. Gets me in trouble sometimes, but always a good ride.

Depends on how much I've had to drink...

It really does depend on the situation; if its something I have time to think about I usually will.

However, if it's an emergency, all bets are off. I jumped in for a kid one time fully clothed, complete with a radio on my belt. The sad part is that the lifeguard on duty was right behind yelling, "Angie, I've got it!" In my mind, I knew I could have stopped and let my guard get him, but I went for any way.

I tend to think things out - it usually saves me a lot of heartache in the end. Plus, less feelings get hurt in the process.

Well you cant just pose a question like that without about 58% of the responses inquiring as to a specific circumstance or occurrence.

Okay diffusing a bomb. What do you think? If I just started randomly tearing out wires and acting on pure epinephrine and fear, what do you honestly think would happen? I would have to presume that I was called in to diffuse a bomb based on my skills at accomplishing such deeds and this would most assuredly require stealth, patience, endurance and a well thought out approach.

Depends what it is.
