I'm fine with rational emotions. Let's say you and I are dating RP. If I show up late to something three times in a row and you get pissed, that's a perfectly rational emotion. You could even call me immature.

The word "rational" doesn't modify "emotion." I think what you're talking about are proportioned emotions, or predictable emotions,* or emotions with which you, too, can empathize. But not "rational."
*In the sense that they are not unexpected. I don't suggest that you ever attempt to validate your SO's emotions by calling them "predictable." What you get in response to calling them that might be unexpected, unless you expected that you and your nutsack would not necessarily live out your respective lives together.
