I all ways go by heart. That's I how got my partner.. I will some times go by my head but it's very rearly that I do. I know my heart tells me right. I do get it wrong some time. We can't all ways be right.
Head because its the only part of my body I use to analyse,observe and decide. I use my head to lay out the facts,evidence and any other form of infor. I find balance using my head on what is priority and valuable to me. Read up on the Maslow Pyramid (Maslow Hierarchy of Needs) might help you. The Pyramid will highlight what and who is important to you in your life. It helps you identify people and things that add or multiply value in your life not subtract and divide you. Shows you what influences your decisions
Try also using your hands to touch, to feel, to weigh etc. Using head and hands together will help you make even better decisions on occasions.
This is the Maslow motivational theory. Which is a tool to we can use to identify how we make our decisions and how we prioritise those decisions. Hope it helps and clarify to you whats important in weighted order to what you really value.
The original hierarchy of needs five-stage model includes:
Maslow (1943, 1954) stated that people are motivated to achieve certain needs and that some needs take precedence over others. Our most basic need is for physical survival, and this will be the first thing that motivates our behavior. Once that level is fulfilled the next level up is what motivates us, and so on.
1. Physiological needs - these are biological requirements for human survival, e.g. air, food, drink, shelter, clothing, warmth, sex, sleep.
If these needs are not satisfied the human body cannot function optimally. Maslow considered physiological needs the most important as all the other needs become secondary until these needs are met.
2. Safety needs - protection from elements, security, order, law, stability, freedom from fear.
3. Love and belongingness needs - after physiological and safety needs have been fulfilled, the third level of human needs is social and involves feelings of belongingness. The need for interpersonal relationships motivates behavior
Examples include friendship, intimacy, trust, and acceptance, receiving and giving affection and love. Affiliating, being part of a group (family, friends, work).
4. Esteem needs - which Maslow classified into two categories: (i) esteem for oneself (dignity, achievement, mastery, independence) and (ii) the desire for reputation or respect from others (e.g., status, prestige).
Maslow indicated that the need for respect or reputation is most important for children and adolescents and precedes real self-esteem or dignity.
5. Self-actualization needs - realizing personal potential, self-fulfillment, seeking personal growth and peak experiences. A desire “to become everything one is capable of becoming”(Maslow, 1987, p. 64).

Good luck on your decision making
I want to say heart, but realistically I say head. I am super practical and I completely get that every one has different needs. You need to take the decision that is right for you. Good luck!
