What is a wasted emotion?

Question

What is a wasted emotion?

Answer 1

In my opinion, Jealousy. It does not show how much you love a person. It shows how insecure you are, with regard to how they feel about you. Ultimately... Jealousy often drives them away from you as well. Which the very outcome that you feared and did not want to have happen.

Answer 2

Pity is a wasteful emotion.  I prefer to feel empathy or sympathy.

Answer 3

Jealousy

Answer 4

I think anger is a healthy emotion. There is a such thing as righteous anger. It helps to cleanse frustration as long as bitterness is not held on to. Hate and jealousy are wasted emotions because these two eat at the soul of a person, which in my opinion lead to the waste of a human life.

Answer 5

Answer 29

LOVE...is a wasted emotion...

Because we humans do not know how to use it and what it is for. He do not know how to love unconditionally. We give conditions like, "What does he or she have to offer me besides love", "You cannot live on love alone". " I love you but I am leaving you". People leave their lovers and loved ones for little reasons, like loosing a good job, because they get seriously sick, they get hook on a drug, they loose their s*x drive, they start new careers, they don't want children, they gain weight. Children stop loving their parents, we cheat on our lovers for one night with another. We kill each other over parcels of land, differences in languages, religion, habits, traits, beliefs, and for sport.

We pretend we understand and want unconditional love, but we don't really know what it is and how to give it. It is too powerful for us in this modern world. The best we can do is get familiar with it, to use at another place and time somewhere beyond this world and what it is today.

We can write dramas,songs and express it is words and gestures. But, it is wasted, because it is a feeling, an emotion that is too beautiful and perfect for us.

One thing I know for sure is that love is not ours. It is in itself a borrowed emotion and a rented  feeling. It is the greatest drug. It's high is like no other natural or man made substance ever. The closes thing they say is Heroin. Which people say, is the devils drug. It is a love wannabe. It is a high that is so addictive you never want it to go away. When you come down from the drug you just want more, more more. You feel empty and sad and depressed. Your body starts to tell you that something is very wrong.One drug will kill you and the other will make you want to die.

You can live without love.But, something and I do not know what it is, keeps us trying to find this love, this perfect high, this emotion of love. But, we just never can figure it out to keep it forever. We go through relationship after relationship in our lives trying to do our best to find this love and keep it forever, but we never do.

I have a theory, though, I think that love is an emotion that is fleeting, and never fulfilling because, it balances out the other emotions. It balances out the other emotions and the feelings that come with it like, emotional pain, emotional joy, emotional gratitude, emotional bliss, emotional sorrow. If we had too much or if one were too sustaining, then all the others would be muted. And the full emotional human experience would be vacated.

Someday when we as humans learn to properly use the power of love with our bodies, our minds and ours souls, this world will be a different world. It will be called not earth, it will be called Heaven.

I have hope that it will come to be.
