i watched this couple break up. the girl turned and walked past me and her emotions hit me like a wave! i almost cried. i could feel everything she was feeling. am i hypersensitive or just.. nuts?
sounds like you really identified with her pain. could be past experience brought out your own feelings when you witnessed her, a sympathetic reaction. that's good. it means you're not dead inside. or you're just a very empathetic person. also good.
empathetic. i get that from watching/reading the news sometimes..almost tear up, or I do but not to the point of crying
Duuude! I was reading million little peices in class. And this one part where talks about this girl. I almost just started to explode with emotion in class. I had to pull it together before I made a scene. Hhaha.. I really think it's just like you open yourself up with out even realizing it. And you put yourself in the same spot. And you just like. BOOM. Feel what they're feeling. I think it's all amatter of being intune with emotion. Thats what I think...
im hypersensitive. but i think that you may have just felt what she was feeling because of experiencing the pain of a break up. it seems her hurt brought back your past hurt. but then again i could be wrong.
I'd say you're hypersensitive, though that probably isn't the word I'm looking for. There's a certain beautiful profundity about seeing that moment, or even about being part of it, and I think if you get caught up in the emotional side of it, you're going to miss the wonderful part of it.
the girl and i (i call her a girl but she was probably 20-23) mad crazy eye contact too, right as it all happened. i think if my 5 year old wasn't sitting on me i would have chased her down just to hug her. i was sending her "psychic" messages! poor thing... had her heart broken in busy downtown.
