Is it normal to not feel guilt, empathy or other emotions?
I have had this on my mind ever since I was 10, I noticed that I never felt "empathy" like other people did. Whenever someone would start to cry everyone else would become sad. Same thing with people getting hurt. I thought people faked feeling sorry just like me. Its not that I do not have emotions, I feel happiness, it just seems I lack many of the negative emotions. Though I do experience anger even though its just a flash that fades quickly.
Throughout my life I have always been baffled by peoples reactions to me doing things which were explicably prohibited, even though those who didnt allow it would have never noticed it, therefore no harm done. When I asked them why they would just say "because its wrong!"
Is this normal, do you fake feeling sad for your friends for example?
