FEEL BAD FOR (superlative form)??? / FOR or ON
Is "feel worst" correct? and the supperlative form of "feel bad for"?
1 I feel bad for her, but I feel the worst for him.
How would you properly express this? How would you say the following naturally?
2 I'm not going to make things more difficult for me/make thing harder on me. I'm trying to make things easier on/for me. Instead of going back and forth 10 times, I'll do it in 2 trips by caring more.
Thank you

Since it appears you are only comparing two things, I'd probably say, "I feel bad for her, but worse for him." If there were a third person involved, I might say, "I feel bad for Sally, worse for Tom, and the worst of all for Jim."
