Did you know there are different kinds of empathy attributes
Very insightful
So which one do you feel you can relate to , or perhaps you can relate to both or none of the above.
Empathy is very important but not everyone has the ability to feel it and that is usually a diagnosis referred to as NPD ~ and that means that a person with diagnosed npd did not have a fully developed conscience so it’s like a real thing
I love learning about human behaviour
We are all unique… literally yet some share the same outlook , beliefs, moral etc
Where my empath dweebs at
Oh and btw people who have empathy tend to feel things more than people who don’t
I think I relate more to cognitive empathy. If something emotionally significant happens to another person, I don’t have any ability to stop myself from imagining in detail every part of their experience. My feelings may not be the same as theirs, but I certainly do feel however I would in their position. At least as well as I can not actually being in it.
@ThreeLittleBirds I didn’t know either! It does make sense though. Empathy’s definition says sharing and understanding another’s feelings. So there’s room for interpretation in that.
