That's interesting. To me you seem to demonstrate that you are insightful and compassionate.
Do you mean that you don't take on others' emotions? If so, to me, that's a good thing. To me, that's a healthy boundary. Like in my journal thread, it seemed like you were insightful and demonstrated compassion, which brought me benefit, but I wouldn't have wanted you to wallow in empathetic pain for my experiences, nor personally felt benefit for you having done so. For some, misery may love company, but my misery prefers a capable companion that can comfort or give a helping hand. Sometimes the help may be affirmation, like saying, "I've experienced that, too," but empathy to me can be like getting stuck at the bottom of someone else's pit, or drowning in their ocean.
