Maybe she doesn't talk to you like she used to, but your secretary does.
Maybe she isn't as attractive as she used to be, but your friend's 25 year old friend super attractive.
Maybe 100 other scenarios.
I feel sorry for a girl who is with a guy that 'runs on emotions'. I control my emotions, they don't control me.

I think I come from a different perspective culturally than most Asian guys here .
I don't think you can go into any relationship without feelings. Your emotions should be raw at the beginning. Of course, your feelings for your partner will mature over time. But I've learned that if you don't make yourself vulnerable (which can be construed as being emotional) to your partner, then you don't get anywhere in a relationship. There's always the risk of getting hurt, but as the cliché goes, no pain no gain.
