Feel vs. Sense
Both 'feel' and 'sense' refer to an awareness of something. But 'sense' refers to an awareness that is not connected to sensory input and is mostly based on instinct, while 'feel' refers to the awareness that results from the stimulation of senses.
Instinct vs. Sensory Input
'Sense' can refer to intuitive or instinctive perception, often used to describe a perception or understanding without relying on direct sensory input. It can refer to an overall sense of something or an intuitive grasp of a situation. 'Feel' means 'to notice something' and can be used to describe an awareness or understanding, but it tends to be more closely tied to the physical effects experienced by an individual, particularly those experience by the sense of touch. For example:
He sensed danger and quickly reacted.
you cannot see, hear, or touch danger, it is an instinctive feeling
She sensed a change in the atmosphere.
I can feel the softness of the fabric.
'softness' can be perceived through the sense of touch
She felt the warmth of the sun on her skin.
