On many occasions, I have been told to “be more empathetic.”
When I ask why, I typically get this reaction:
This is a ridiculous question. I am not going to answer it because it is so ridiculous.
Empathy is the right thing to do! You should feel bad for that person. We’re humans, after all.
These explanations never really helped.
