    That social rejection results in pain and suffering

    Explanation:

    When you're rejected by a person you care about and for any reason, it was necessary to break up with him/her, your body answer trough the feeling of pain. This happens because some areas of the brain are activated when you remember the moments you shared with that person (or group of person), and the idea that you can't stay with that person, or with the group, makes your brain understand that is painful, and your body answers with the same feeling.
