Why are some people so empathetic
I'm not a sociopath I have a fairly normal level of empathy and am mostly sympathetic if anything. But theres people that will cry over anything, I had a friend cry over a homeless dudes carboard poster, because it had squiggles and stars and was decorated with effort. I mean I get it but crying over it is crazy. How are some people so empathetic that they'll cry over something thats pretty minor and cry basically everyday. I don't get it. Idk if this is a sign of empathy but also constantly upholding social justice movements, I couldn't be assed unless it affects me, like idc to spread awareness over shit.
I'm personally also someone who can't understand people like that, but rather than thinking of it as an overreaction, I guess the best way to frame it is to think that their subject of love is different to you.
They don't have to be ignorant or privileged to have excessive empathy, but you also don't have to be heartless and cold to not have that...... 1 reply
