If emotional pain was visible, we would all conduct ourselves very differently.
We would find kinder ways to break up with the person we were dating and we would be less cruel when rejecting people who expressed interest in us.
We would show more concern when we saw someone sitting alone, an anguished look on their face.
We would be more patient and less judgemental when a friend or loved one fails to get over a broken heart in what we consider a timely manner.
And when our own heart gets broken we would be more self-compassionate, feel less shameful about our distress and more open to asking for the help we need.
