Blessing or Curse?

Am I gifted or cursed?

(I believe) I hv d ability to feel others' emotions. I cn accurately describe one's emotions, listen 2 their worries, counsel them, & suggest solutions. In other words, I hv slightly extra empathy compared to average ppl. I've always considered it as a gift.

Until moments like dis. It's during times like dis dat I wonder whether it's a curse.

I see her pain. I know her pain. And what hurts the most:


I feel her pain.


Don't get me wrong, it's nt dat I'm after her or sumtin. She's my fren. I jz dunno why d same thing happens 2 me all d time. I get 2 involved in others' emotions & end up getting hurt wif dem. When dey laugh, I feel energized. But....


When dey cry, I cry.


This hurts.
