Different people have different expectations and goals. You have to decide what type of relationship matches your current needs -- one thing I'd shy from is trying to "logically" understand emotional reactions -- too much philosophizing leads us to deceive ourselves. Plus that type of analysis is based on an assumption Descartian Dualism, which is increasingly shown to be completely incorrect. Introspection is useful, but don't go overboard.

The un-examined life isn't worth living. But neither is the over-examined.
That might be true, but cognitive psychologists know that emotions are triggered by thoughts (that are triggered by events), and that they can be re-arranged, so to speak, to reduce bad emotions.

So by understanding our thought patterns, and getting new insights, we CAN control our emotions.
