Is it normal that most of the time i lack empathy?

I've studied people around me to try to get some basis for my feeling, or lack thereof, and have come up moot so I've come to this site for help. When I see what happens around the world, the atrocities committed, I couldn't care less. Is this normal?

    If you mean you're lacking empathy towards distant events, however horrific they are, then that's normal. There's so much tragedy around the world nowadays that it's hard not to become numb to it.

    It's also hard to understand the pain of the victims, since outsiders lack firsthand experience, or anything comparable to what they went through

    Could be asperger's, or you could just be a teenager.

    The only normal thing is that you came here. Your among many of your own kind.
