If I'm an empath, or I'm just crazy I vote for the sencond one. Then I have a thoery about empathy. Empathy is the amout of how much you can sense antoher persons feelings. I think if you are to be considered an emptah you feel the excat same amout of feeling someone else is feeling. If you have a little bit of empathy then you can feel bad when some one crys but only a little. If you have less say half empathy then when some one crys you feel really bad and close to tears but not crying. If you are a full empath then when someone crys you put you head down so no one can see you cry and try and choke back the tears. I mean really YOUR CHOKEING ON TEARS. Now if I'm not crazy i have too recent encounters of this kind. One is understandable, one really scares me. The sensable one is my youth group leader was talking about a friend and I THINK if I'm not crazy I felt he was going to explode (not literally of course) and when some one asked what happened to his friend. I was thinking NO DON'T ASK SHE DIED when he replyed she died and he broke into tears, now no one else was crying ( or had there head down) and i had to put my head down so my sister wont look at me and ask whats wroung and i felt like i coundt breath and finally had to let some tears come but still its reasonable beacause i at least KNOW my youth group leader. I don't cry when I'm alone. I read old yeller with out feeling anything, i read the green mile and wacthed it without feeling anything i wacthed gone with the wind without feeling anything. Well i felt a little sad of course but if I'm not crazy I can sense that was just sympathy. This one scared me. We had a guest speaker in school to come talk about drunk driveing and at one point she burst into tears about her sister and how she died. And agian i looked down and choked pretty much, GOD IT FELT AWFUl I didn't even know what i was crying about! Or when I started! And I never even meet her. Now plz reply and tell me if I'm crazy or does this make sense. If you do that I'll post something else thank you.
