I don't feel sympathy or empathy

All my life I have been uncomfortable around people, I have friends but not many. I am in a relationship, but I am feeling the worst I have ever been, I am not depressed I think. I have never really cared about how people feel I have never felt sorry for someone or felt the need to help anyone. I have always stayed away from friends who are having a difficult life because I simply can't sympathise with them even if I've been through the same problems they have been through. I don't feel others hurt or pain. I make the wrong decision about nearly everything because I'm not bothered about how it'll effect other people. I have a tendency to walk away from people mid conversation because they bore me or I don't care

    I hope I don't offend you when I say I think you might have aspergers. Check it out.

      I have Asperger's and I struggle a lot with sympathy and empathy. I don't really feel bad for people; I just become really uncomfortable when they start confiding in me about their issues. Maybe that's one reason why I hate making friends and won't even touch the realm of dating - I really hate dealing with other people's baggage.

      I was thinking the same thing.
      I have aspergers and can relate to a lot of this.

    *in Lana del Rey voice* "Baby, I'm a sociopath..."

    Take the narcissistic personality inventory test, it'll give you a lot of insight.

    I'm the same but there are exceptions. I can only sympathise or empathise with people who have similar problems as mine.
