"Feelings come from thoughts" is pretty much the basis of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. Fairly well-understood. Of course it's not a universal technique but it's often very helpful.

I think both come from chemical state, but can influence each other to an extent. There is clear evidence in anyone's life for that. Can you think yourself to feel absolutely anything?

If you are in love with someone did your thoughts cause that love? Or did feeling of love, arousal cause those thoughts?
