Most of our emotions are adapted just fine. The things that get in the way are: - People suppress some of their feelings. Especially people in certain cultures with certain feelings (Californians & Canadians with anger, Australians & Brits with pride, etc). Suppression also means nobody knows how to receive that feeling and they get weird. - When you suppress certain emotions, they don’t get a chance to “grow up” from a childish expression to an adult expression. Adult anger looks different from child anger. Ignore things if you want. But I think that’s a lower skill, worse outcome choice in general.
