Maybe some have not experienced this yet.. it's hard to explain. And by "in pain" I mean, sadness, grief, etc.

I have had a lot of grief lately. I lost 4 beloved pets in 11 months (one last week which I am not recovered from) and my dad's Alzheimer's takes another piece of his mind daily. I too have noticed that sensation--it's a heaviness in the chest which moves up to block the throat and it feels as if the only way to release the blockage is to scream.
I teach a form of Reiki called Shamballa Multi Dimensional Healing and there's a channeling about how humans feel emotions in their physical hearts and how that actually can damage the heart. I can feel love through my thymus as the channeling suggests but my grief still comes from a different place.
I'm not sure that I answered your question but I at least validated that others feel it the same way.

You don't need to get into metaphysics to say that your chest aches when your muscles constrict your breathing and the blood flow from your heart, and that's what happens when your tense and worried- whether you realize that's how you feel or not.
If you feel pain when you're "in love" that's actually a bad sign. Your body knows when you're heading into an abusive relationship before your brain does. Real love makes breathing easier.

Scientifically it's a heart flutter, it occurs when you're excited mentally or emotionally. The brain begins to work overtime, requiring more blood - and the heart begins to pump it harder, causing a warm sensation in the chest area along with the "uplifting" feeling.
In spirituallity it's the same thing: your heart is connected to the aura through the Anahata I think, the green one, anyway - because of the explosion of blood that suddenly rushes out of the heart it forces the chakra to open up or activate, allowing the entire aura to receive the benefit of the hightened sensation.

I want to know too, if anyone has an alternative explanation to it being psycosematically brought on by our brains, and the release of a chemical that makes us breath differently, like the same feeling as anxiety. But, I think that is the correct reason.

Basically, everything physical is a substitute for real life. Love as we know it, with its opposites, and drawbacks, is a substitute for God's perfect Love; the ache is a symbol for our innate yearning to "return" to that "place" we never left: the place of eternal Love.

The heart is supposed to correspond to your affection.
