hurt feelings  

Definición

  • Whoever said, “stick and stones may break your bones, but words will never hurt you,” never interacted with other people. In one of the first studies to explore hurt feelings, people describing how it felt to have their feelings hurt often used terms such as stung and crushed, or they said they felt their heart break.
