      I hate cringe comedy because it makes me feel awkward… But I’m very much not an empathetic person (for whatever reason, I don’t really ‘do’ affective empathy).

        Literally empathy: I’m experiencing an emotion because someone else is experiencing that emotion.

        Not to be confused with sympathy: I noticed you’re experiencing an emotion.
