Well-Adjusted
You have traits of both Romanticism and Rationalism. Why commit wholly to one side or the other? Both have their good points. In the real world, the truth usually lies between the extremes. Sure, there are problems with society, but is revolution really necessary? Nature is great and all, but so is science. You recognize that logic and emotion both have their place, and are both necessary.

The Rationalist

You have a few Romantic characteristics, but not many. You are most likely a Rationalist. You are moderate and restrained. You believe in logic, pragmatism, and tradition. And why not? Those things have worked pretty well so far, unlike a lot of these ridiculous so-called "Romantic" notions. If it were up to the Romantics, you suspect, we'd all still be living in caves. It's people like you who have brought structure, discipline, and stability to the world.


Figures. Where's Graelwyn?

This describes me to a T. It takes a lot to make me all "sappy" or "overwhelmed by beauty". Last time I felt that way was two years ago, when I was on a trip to Israel for the first time ever (I'm Jewish). When the plane was near the airport, I looked out the window, and saw the land that I've seen only on a map until then, with its recognizable shape and all. That was pretty much the only time I had a "oh, wow" feeling.

Of course I'm restrained. Typical British eccentric...that's me.
