Don't play with my emotions
This saying is used as a means to express a liking of something that generally would be 'too good to be true.' It is to be said in a non-deadpan manner, with optimistic tone. When said, emphasis should be on the word 'my.'
For an alternative usage of this saying, it could be something that you dislike or would rather someone not say even if its true, but you must change your tone accordingly.
Often times this saying can be started by using the word "listen."
