Ok can we talk about Empaths? Cause clearly a lot of people have a distorted view on what Empaths really are…
Like why are they making Empaths act or seem like Sociopaths who can “sense” emotions?
They dont just “sense” it, they feel it. They literally put themselves into the other’s shoes and have this deep understanding on the other’s emotions.
It’s totally not like what I’ve seen on tiktok where one character is hurt and crying or something and the Empath goes “I feel like you’re upset”
Just no.
Empaths might actually start balling their eyes out as well because they empathize with the person. Empathize, as in put themselves in the other’s position— see it from their view and deeply understand why the other is feeling that way.
Man, Tiktok and other social media platforms has distorted how Empaths look. They arent emotionless people who can “sense” other’s emotions…
