Why is everyone an empath?

Everyone is a brilliant actor in my books. People have to be. We're all chameleons. We all suit situations. But every now and then you'll meet someone who's a bit more obvious than the rest. Subtle behavioral cues most of the time, but sometimes it's just the look in their eye. If there's a certain vulnerability missing there you know they're just a charmer.
Exactly. People show their vulnerabilities way too much. The smart, or at least, street wise ones are more cagey. It's all down to experience. Sometimes just knowing a persons background gives you all you need to know. All their bad decisions. The fact that they're even a single mother tells you a lot.
Why didn't they pick a guy who'd stick around, and even marry them? It shows impulsiveness to me. I got an earful about impulsiveness when I was locked up. I don't get your question about purpose. My original thread was that people are accepting of anything as long as it's said in a nice way. Please redirect me.
@Lara_C the fact that @Dark111 has ASPD, more likely than not, makes him/or her very skilled at reading people. This applies to all antisocial personalities, sociopaths, and psychopaths. You're basing your viewpoint on the premise that because someone with ASPD has a lack of empathy, that means they shouldn't be able to determine what others are feeling and thinking. And it's actually quite the opposite. They're absolute masters of reading emotional cues, body language, and others' intentions. My husband is a sociopath, and he's very skilled at this sort of thing.
Stupid people are accepting of anything as long as it's said in a nice way. On the contrary, I'm more than likely to get extremely irritated with someone who's giving me a bunch of meanness platitudes, for instance. I expect people to be real and genuine with me. At times, blunt, even. I'm not about the, "Oh, it will get better. Hugs," bullshit. In that case, I'd rather the person have said nothing at all.
@Aurelia, why are you still married to him?
Honestly, they seem very intelligent and I happen to like their reasoning and ideas. I doubt that they're here to harass anybody, else they'd be doing that instead of posting threads such as these. I think that they simply want some good conversation that involves deeper level of thinking.
