it's object permanence, but for emotions.
the most common example is of people who have attachment issues or disorders that have attachment-issue-like symptoms (e.g. BPD), where people feel like their friends or partner do not love them unless they are showed affection and are reassured constantly.
it could literally be anything else too, like not thinking your soul-bound enemy hates you during times they don't show you hate

Person 1: I feel like my best friend doesn't like me unless they talk with me and reassure me they're my best friend.
Person 2: They do like you, and consider you a best friend as well..You just have emotional object permanence because momma didn't give you much love as a child.

Noun. A distracting and excessive cloud of feelings that surrounds a complainer and overcasts an event. May include complaints drenched in anger or grief, but not a physical solution. Used to push others away with its feckless toxicity.
--He could have done his homework, but instead just spent an hour complaining about it. The air was so thick with emotional pollution, I just had to get out of there.
--I think she had a problem with my attitude, but I couldn't care less. She just babbled emotional pollution of "blah blah blah." Some people live to perfect their outrage.

A word to describe your sadness or pain in a situation. It's called this because Drake also known as "Drizzy" is really fucking emotional.

The act of watching heart wrenching documentaries or reading about celebs having miscarriages to indulge in such feelings for self gratifying reasons while having the safety net of knowing it’s happening to them and not you.
Oh i see your watching that show ‘ miscarriage- my story’ , pure emotional masterbation, a horrible thing to do.
