People doing this are also doing these things:

i know what it is and all and im pretty good at it. i can sense just about anything and im telepathic too so thats helpful…ive gotten to a point where my close friends have been saying what i think without me even trying to channel them or i tend to think what they’re thinking without trying to. but im not there yet…i need help, i need to know how i can develop my empathy more.
I’ve improved. Not to the point where I can call this “done” though.
Practice practice practice!
If sympathy says “I’m sorry” and compassion says “I’ll help”, what does empathy say? “I feel your pain”?
empathy n. Identification with and understanding of another’s situation, feelings, and motives. See synonyms at pity.
I always thought that empathy was more the “showing” side of the understanding… is there a different word for that? I can identify and understand people’s feelings, I just am supremely awful at showing it.
As a result of a course in my MBA program, I decided to develop this competency, empathy. I have begun by collecting information about what it means, thats the easy part..now I’m searching how to develop it
