M3.3 Personal Affections {{similar_to: sympathetic affections, M8.3}}. <-- this group is closely related to M8.3, sympathetic affections, under M8, mind-mind interactions, which were grouped with these affections in Roget. The Roget classification had linguistic validity because feelings are often directed at external objects, rather than having a potentially independent existence, such as ideas. However, to maintain the overall structure of this classification (the distinction between actions of an individual mind and mind-mind interactions), the entry here allows the "affections, feelings" class to be considered a mental object, though it is in some way similar to a mind-mind interaction. One of the main problems is the resulting large distance between many of the emotions listed here, and the emotions of love and hate, usually thought of in similar terms. --> [[affections]] N. affection, affect, affections, feeling. <-- Note: entries 822.
