As someone with extremely u!usual emotional reactions: i love this shit. It’s so cool and good.
And if you argue agaibst it, for any other model of compassion, you’re just a monster.
That sounds less like an empath and more like a cop. They know everything you’re thinking within 5 seconds
And are NEVER wrong once their decision is made. No mistakes ever.

It’s almost like we spent millions of years evolving as social communal animals. Almost like we evolved …wait for it…

Empathy. /gasp
Who’s “we”? I sure didn’t.
Do you happen to be a billionaire?
That’s either a personal failing or a medical condition. You should see someone about it.
“I’m an empath” a.k.a. I’m so stupid that I think reading body language requires supernatural powers
Or you have bpd.
Obviously not “you” as in the commenter I’m responding to
As far as I’ve been told, that’s an extension of their inability to regulate emotions. They aren’t more in tune with other’s emotions, but rather, their emotional responses to other’s emotions is stronger than the average person.
People with bpd aren’t sensing other people’s emotions more, they are reacting to it more due to their dysregulation.
If what they’re reacting to is even real in the first place.
I sort of have this… but its not supernatural.
It’s just my autistic quirk of adopting personality traits of people around me… I’ve heard it called Chameleoning
I got my super power from an abusive childhood 😎
Join the club.
The problem with chameleoning is that it sometimes takes a while to calibrate when meeting a stranger for the first time, so you’re just confused. It can also be overwhelming when meeting with multiple strangers at the same time.
This actually works, whenever I scold at people for thinking mean thoughts at me. They ALWAYS respond agressively. Didnt know there was a word for it, Thanks!
Now I have a super power AND a kick ass theme song. Thanks!
