What is the worst emotion?

probably the emotion that goes with visually witnessing in real-time and in close proximity to the sight of a spouse/parent/son/daughter killed in a brutal accident...

You post is getting a lot of responses. I'm sorry this happened to you, but I know it happens a lot with people socially. I wonder why. What would be the point of pretending to be nice? Did they get something else out of it like money, social positioning, or something else? Or maybe they were expecting to get something from you that you didn't offer them, and so they got mad? I have noticed that some people like relationships to fill their expectations, which can be quite demanding in some cases. Sometimes people expect to have control, and then when they don't, they aren't happy about it. Politeness can avert conflict, but actively hanging out of giving compliments for pretends doesn't make sense to me. I'm sure you are better off without that nonsense.

That original question is important. Why? Why would someone pretend to be nice if they don't like someone?

It could also partially be one's own fault in perception on how well you get along with someone. Then they being anti-confrontational and avoidant makes for a volitile mix. Being online makes you unable to read body language as well, so when someone says nice things. You have to take it at face value and trust that's what they mean. You can't see them with a frustrated expression, or an averted gaze. I actually think online interaction is harder for some types of personalitys. Then for the people who do it to gain something, it is only a matter of time before they reveal themselves.

I personally dislike mind games, and like people just being straight with me. I'd rather be rejected outright, then buttered up to first.

Any emotion can be toxic if it's ceased to serve you- if you serve it instead. Unless I'm mistaken it's the fundamental gateway to addiction.

The absence of pure love. Searching time, and time again...and not finding it anywhere besides the one place you won't go because you refuse to adhere to a book you don't believe in.

EDIT:
Well...no, that's not quite true. It's just been rare as fuck.
