Jesus calls it rejection. I find it interesting that Jesus puts rejection on the same level as being slain. For some reason we humans have a deep inner longing to be accepted by a group or groups of others whom we perceive as somehow being necessary for us to live a rich full life. For the most part we will do anything to gain and maintain this acceptance. Each group has its own rules and penalties for violating said rules.
All penalties involve some kind of rejection.
The rejection factor, either real or perceived, plays an enormous part in the current wave of school shootings. It has also contributed to the violent death of many a straying spouse. To be rejected by someone whom you love is apparently the very worst form of rejection. The pain is indescribable. I remember thinking I would die when my second grade teacher let me know in no uncertain terms that she did not have romantic feelings toward me.
