How do I know if I lack empathy?

[Peachy]

What does it even feel like? If I'm asking this, does it mean I don't have it?

Empathy is the capacity to understand or feel what another person is experiencing from within their frame of reference, that is, the capacity to place oneself in another's position.[1] Definitions of empathy encompass a broad range of emotional states. Types of empathy include cognitive empathy, emotional empathy, and somatic empathy.[2]

I can't feel what someone else feels like, I can only imagine

It's not that bad. If someone is crying they're sad, and if someone is smiling they're happy.

I did drop cats from the fifth floor because I wanted to see if they really land on their feet. I also got in many fights as a kid, so you know where I'm going with this.

Psychopaths can't tell if a person is genuinely sad or afraid, study suggests

Researchers tested people with photos of genuine and fake emotions to find out if those with psychopathic traits could tell the difference.

but i was suggesting you find the pictures they were using in the study and then you can make the test..maybe it helps you..because this is what you are aiming for right? you suspect you are a bit of a psychpath right?

I'm a failed psychopath. I'm supposed to be a compulsive liar, which I was, but am not anymore. When I was 8, I was lying to my parents non-stop and they got tired of this shit, so they kicked me out of the house for a day, and I had to sleep on the street. After that I stopped lying. Now I am brutally honest, even if the truth hurts people.

Foid's "empathy" is just a virtue signalling.
In the end what they really care about is getting a Chad ,status and money.
