Anticipation

Anticipation (1909) by Harrison Fisher

Anticipation is an emotion involving pleasure or anxiety in considering or awaiting an expected event. Anticipatory emotions include fear, anxiety, hope and trust.[1] When the anticipated event fails to occur, it results in disappointment (for a positive event) or relief (for a negative one).
