Rational Versus Emotional

I ended up runner up for my current position. The school went with someone with more experience and a bigger degree. My rational side understands the schools choice and why they chose the other candidate. However, the emotions of not getting the position are confusing. On the one hand I am proud that out of 150 candidates I made the top 6 and out of the top six I made the top two list. However at the same time I feel betrayed. This is funny since they do not owe me anything, however I feel it.

This made me think is this what happens with entitlement programs. Is this what political scientist tap into?
