Every human has emotions... Even animals and plants have emotions.
To suggest that some people have no emotions is a very dangerous slippery slope.
Psychology is great but is still part of an incomplete and flawed discipline in sciencen which is itself not complete since they're still discovering new things every year.

When someone uses psychology to make a point, I know then that they're only parrots and are full of sh...

to a small degree, being emotionalless is considered almost sage-like or stoic-like, and therefore preferable. Most of our emotions are based on what we learned and on ego.

I can see the appeal to being emotionless.
You can never get your 'feelings' hurt if you possess no emotions.

There's a difference between being 'emotionless' and being in 'control' of your emotions.

With emotional maturity, you still feel the emotions but you have control over what they do to your contentment.

While I may not react as most people do, I still feel the emotions.
The difference is, I have control over how I react to them.

An Android might be completely emotionless. The problem with that is there is no passion in them. Nothing affects them. The implications of nothing has no impact on how they conduct themselves.

Being 'Human' means we react to implications. Emotions are there for a reason. Its called expression.
To stifle our expression causes a buildup of stress.
We naturally express ourselves, we have been expressing ourselves all our lives.
When we feel hurt, we don't want thos feelings. They cause us pain. We want to feel happy and care-free. Who doesn't.
If we stifle those feelings and try to bury them we still have them and they tend to rear up when we don't want them to.
If we deal with them, we can let that feeling out and build our tomorrows from the ashes of the past. They still rear their ugly heads if we are feeling vulerable unless we have emotional maturity and accept that we have dealt with that pain as best we can.

On dating sites, especially in profiles and in the forums, there are many people that hold onto that emotional pain. They will deny it if you ask them but you see it in how they interact.

Its a personal delusion they tell themselves to make themselves feel better but it really doesn't work.
The only way to gain the upper hand is to find your own emotional security.
When I talk with someone that is hurting I tel them to remember when they were young. Before all that pain happened. Sometimes that helps them.
See, when you're a kid, you have more imes of contentment than depression.
Its because you haven't had the things that brought you down happen to you yet.
Its a 'pristine' you.
If you can find that again, focus on that sense of being, you can get a handle on it all.

Nearly EVERYTHING that gives us emotional distress is because something did not work out the way you expected it to.
Life is only life.
A duration of time while you exist.
That duration will be filled with things which you have no control over.
The delusion is that you might think you control everything that happens to you.
Emotional Maturity allows you to realize that you don't.
