When you find out Peeta was actually in love with her. And then found out he got played.

Yea but the poor boy gets so caught up in everything that he thinks the star crossed lovers bit is real. It hurt.

Being "played" implies deliberate deception. We know Peeta loves Katniss from the start.
Katniss takes longer to realize that she feels the same. They both know that the "star
crossed lovers" story is a sham. There is some tension because Peeta wishes it is real
before it actually is. This is overplayed in the book IMO. The filmmakers give Peeta
more credit. But Katniss never deceives Peeta about her feelings.
