To people asking about why they need empathy and those type of «real feelings»;
human interactions feels way more real and exciting (even when sad etc), you would feel more alive, you would be able to kind of speak in a total different non-verbal language, i can’t describe it in many other words than magic.. I have been feeling like literal crap for a few months now, but I am still grateful for all my experiences, that keep growing my emotional intellectual! Would rather cry every week for the rest of my life, than to not feel anything.. I’ve had periods where I’ve lacked the ability to cry for weeks, and I’ve always ended up begging and praying to be able to cry -even once! For the most part tho, I’m overly emotionally senstitive -but I don’t mind. Working on myself to not let it overwhelm me ahah.. this bi*** be too empathetic lol, i swear it gets in my way sometimes x))
when it comes to empathy, i wouldn’t say the one or the other is «the better person», but from personal experience I’ve had to learn the hard way that not all non-empathetic people would be healthy to keep in my life, simply because of the fact that I am overly emoathetic, while the other part lack the whole concept of empathy.. with empathy I am like a battery, unconditionally giving out my charged energy to those around me, because I get more joy out of shared happiness than to keep it all to myself alone.. a non-empathetic person in this cause would drink it up like an energy-drink, not considering i’m getting drained to the bones (unless they spesifically learned to just take a little at once).. again, it’s simplt the lack of the concept, hindering you from understanding the human ineraction of unconditionally give and take without any expectations
