KI- To what extent is reason limited by our personal emotions?

MP-
1. Our capacity to reason about our choices is sometimes limited by our personal emotions.
     EX: So your boyfriend left you hanging to go out with his friends (yes, your a girl). You had been planning this date for days because it was your sixth month together. He didn't forget, he took you to lunch and gave huggs and kisses all over. But that's not enough for you, you want him all for yourself. Your now hurt and sad and depressed and PISSED. You call him up in the middle of the night, say you regret everything and you hate him, his an ass, and break up with him on the phone (lame). Three days later you're in much more pain than before because you miss him and want him back. Now, he is hurt and doesn't want you back because you're kinda crazy. At this point you were driven by you emotions and made a choice without thinking it through.
2. Our emotions can limit reason when dealing with others reasons AND emotions.
    EX: Imagine there is one person that you have never really liked, yet you can't avoid contact with that person and you normally have to work with him/her because karma thought it would be fun to make you suffer. So this one day, you have has a sucky morning (for any reason whatsoever) but you still have to unite forces with this other person and work on something together. You go look for Annoying (other person's name) so that you can get started and get it all over with, but Annoying is not feeling well either and tells you to wait. But you snap. You've been driven by your emotions and you perception Annoyng betrayed you.
