What does having No empathy feel like?

I wonder sometimes…

Nothing. Vacuum of emotion?

I imagine it doesn't. 😬

Okay, serious answer.
Logically, it's first and foremost confusion. Because the person doesn't understand why other people react the way they do if something either positive or negative happens to them. They can't relate. Then could follow amusement, annoyance, apprehension or no emotion. Because that's a common reaction people have when they don't understand.
I guess it's no different than when a normal person witnesses someone with emotional dysregulation in situations that according to them don't require such intense emotional response. You can't empathize because you've never experienced it so you'll either laugh, get scared or get annoyed.

Maybe...maybe not.

I imagine for those who don't have it, that somehow it's liberating to be detached from emotion like that but damn it's gotta be a lonely state to exist in.

its easy to figure out.... think about the shit you give the most fucks about, now imagine just not giving ANY fucks, and that is what no empathy feels like

Detached emotional. I am not sure what is closest example let just use murderer for example Chris Watt.

During integorration with detectives, he never mention "my babies" whereabout but he only said "those children". Someone who loves their family wouldn't detached themselves from their beloved one.

Empathy where you still feel remorse when do something wrong, but to some people probably psychopath it just feel nothing remorse nor regret.

No conscience I guess. Usually a sign of narcissism or just evil. Ignorance is bliss though.

It’s an awful feeling, I used to be that way and it’s incredibly isolating and dark

I believe it would be pure evil.
I can only imagine.
We can not hold a resolve for what we can not control. The feeling of empathy is the most superficial thing of our modern age.

Blocking someone because of a difference in opinion. That simple here :-)

@val70 It could be something more than.

@Nevaeh0081 What could be more? The block, the opinion, the reality that it's strange to do that, the fact that one needs a counselor if one can't stand reality, etc.? I'm sorry but I'm here to learn. Somehow, I might think that you agree on this too, some on here can't even do that any more
I hope you don't try seeing within false flashes.
