The Feeling 

"The Feeling" refers to a type of second-hand embarassment one gets in awkward situations. You may have to look away, walk away or ignore to get rid of the uncomfortable tension in your stomach.
Nerds making out and canoodling in public may give you "the feeling."

If someone tells a story with too many graphic details in front of your boss or parent, you may get "the feeling".

If someone tells a corny joke or anecdote, you may get "the feeling". Same goes for over romantic, nostaglic, or schmaltzy sentiments.

If someone falls, farts, or makes a fool of themself and you are directly next to them, you may get "the feeling."

the feeling is mutual 

If you say to someone "The feeling is mutual" you are telling that person that you agree with them - your opinions, thoughts, feelings mirror theirs.
You're tired of my face? The feeling is mutual.

The Feeling 

1. The feeling of affection that starts at your heart then surges through your whole body and then hits your stomach as if your stomach is filled with butterflies.
3. One of the greatest things a person feels
2. A strong, glimps feeling of love

The Feeling 

The feeling is acquired when you try to tell a joke, which you find very hilarious, but then nobody laughs and you're left to feel like a complete jackass.
Boy 1: -tells a joke- Wasn't that so funny?!
Boy 2: -stares at boy 1- no.
Boy 1: Uhhh.. damn it! I just got the feeling.

The feelings card 

A dialectic counterattack, primarily used by females when arguing with their male counterparts, in which some or all statements previously made in the conversation are retroactively labeled "feelings". This Jiu-Jitsu inspired verbal maneuver thus renders all valid points and rebuttals made by the victim moot, nay less than moot, in fact all those rebuttals have now been turned into an unprompted offensive attack. And in argument, it is the attacker who "loses" the match.
Mark: So my girl told me that I was asshole because I forgot our first anniversary yesterday. I pulled out the concert ticket from our first date which proved our anniversary is next week and said she was being rude. Then she pulled the feelings card on me, she said that regardless of when our anniversary really is, she still felt forgotten and felt like i was an asshole, and now i was a double asshole for calling her rude and stomping on her when she was already hurt. FML!
