Report

You've broken up with your girlfriend or boyfriend, your wife or husband has left you and you feel rejected, dejected, broken-hearted. Well, new research suggests that intense feelings of rejection1 are as hurtful as physical pain. 

The lead author of the study, Ethan Kross, said the reason is because the same regions of the brain that become active in response to painful sensory2 experiences are also activated3 during intense experiences of social rejection. 

The researchers hope their findings will offer new insight into how the experience of intense social loss may lead to various physical pain symptoms and disorders4.

They also confirmed the notion that people from different cultures all around the world use the same language, words like 'hurt' and 'pain', to describe the experience of both physical pain and social rejection.
