Am I a bad person? I always lurk here and read the posts from the nonas, but I don’t really feel anything. I understand the reactions and emotions of people who suffered harm and want to do harm, but the only thing I can do is come up with a very generic opinion about it. I don’t think I’m a psychopath because I do feel remorse for things, but they’re usually petty and small things. Like, I cringe and feel awful every time I remember that I didn’t share my cold tea with my grandmother when she asked how it tasted, I almost cry whenever I think about that. But I felt nothing when I broke up with my ex and left him stranded in the middle of another town he didn’t know anything about.

no, people are pretty much born without empathy that isn't just projective (so cognitive) and have to develop it. you just probably never learned why these things are bad.
I do think ppl overreact sometimes but I understand why. I just don't like it cause shitting on men is better when you're coming from a position of strength and not a position of a little bitch

also you might've felt nothing about your ex cause he was annoying to you but your grandma wasn't. maybe a defense mechanism like emotional detachment, but I can't know for sure from what you said. maybe you just didn't value him like your grandma? either way it's probably way more normal than you think, not necessarily good though
