Yeah, I agree with Ctrl_Z. If you have a lot of personal issues that you're dealing with on a constant basis (which I'm sure you are), you'll probably be more inclined to only be thinking about yourself. However, one thing you might want to try is this: imagine yourself being in their position, and then ask yourself, how would I feel if someone were to say such and such to me when I'm in a tough spot. In other words, do your best to feel what they would feel. Lastly, don't forget that true friends should always be there for one another, especially in tights spots, even if it inconveniences you.

Hmmm, some people aren't very sensitive to emotions and such. Nothing wrong with it, but it could be a problem when you deal with people socially. When you say things with a straight face, do you feel any compassion for their problems?

This can be just the fact you don't want to deal with anyone. But also, some people could just be whining about things, and you can be the one to bring them back down to reality with the truth.

its not that u dont care as much as its hard for u to feel there pain and somtimes being a good friend means u hurt them, and its a rare thing to be able to step back and read things without the confines of emotion. i think that if people were less sensetive than our world wouldnt be so jacked. dont be ahsamed of your honesty revel in it and use it to truly help people. u have a gift it took me a lot of failed relationships and lost family and friends to realize that if people want the truth that it should not have to be a sugar caoted fantasy that only hits the highlights u keep that distance and know that the people who do try to understand your honesty are the ones that matter.
