I kinda feel like my friend has something wrong with her

There's this girl I've known for years and I believe we are friends but I kinda feel like she doesn't think the same way. I don't think she considers anyone anything really. She just seems a bit empty in a since. She has lots of friends and a lot of people like her but I've been getting this weird feeling about her.
In all the years I've known her she hasn't exactly been the most emotional person. Shes not even subtle about it. Like whenever someone comes to her whenever they are upset she constantly tells them she doesn't understand what they are feeling and looks and acts like she just can't wait for it all to be over. When her grandparents died she didn't have a care in the world. And when her family was going through problems and had to go trough court over their abusive father her sister told me she was the only one of them who didn't cry. Ya sure maybe she was just being strong but stuff like that should be extremely stressfull. And whenever she talks about her dad she always has a straight face when from just hearing about how he was makes me wanna ccry.
Plus she is really good at figuring people out too. When we were in elementary school there was this girl we knew for the entire time we went to school together and she could read this girl like a book. She'd say things like"Chy (girls nickname) is angry" or "She likes him" and she could do this to other people too, even me even if we weren't even showing signs. I came to school one day when I had a lot on my mind but nobody noticed all day but she second she saw me she asked it something was wrong. Of course I was amazed so what I said she was the first person to notice she just shrugged.
Oh and I'm forgetting about that one time in sophmore year she was just quietly sitting in class zoneing out like she normally did but then she just randomly broke down in tears and couldn't even speak it was so bad. She had to leave class but when she came back she looked like nothing had happened and carried her day on like normal.

I had once decribed her as a malfunctioning CPU because of how odd she is
I want to know if anyone knows like a mental condition this fits or something

    It's definitely a little off, but it may be from multiple things from being on medications that cause her to be pretty much emotionally numb (anxiety meds and antidepressants did that for me), she might just express her emotions in a different and more private way, or maybe she's just not very empathetic. She might have some sort of a disorder too, but I'm not a doctor and couldn't really say.

    Don't start trying to diagnose a friend's "mental conditions" via the internet. Unless she sees a doctor and they diagnose her with something then it's really damaging to try and label her yourself, even if you don't tell her to her face and just decide it on your own.

    She just is who she is. You could try and encourage her to speak to someone. Also if you become really concerned about her and think she is a danger to herself or others then obviously that would be the time to call emergency services, but up until that point all you can do is be there for her. You sound like a really good friend, I'm sure she'll open up to when she's ready.

    What you are describing is a little odd, but it could be a lot worse.

    i wouldn't say it's "normal" but also wouldn't say it's "not normal". some people are just like that, especially people that have gone through some kind of trauma, as she had an abusive father
