"I think that makes sense. So, you are saying that being empathetic doesn't mean that I have to be overcome with emotions. I can care, but still not cry over something or let it consume me. Maybe this has to do with boundaries? Is it like when my pdoc cares about me, but goes about her daily life not letting her work get to her? "
Exactly what I meant :)
I would much rather not truly socialise. There are a few people I love spending time with, but as a rule, I'd much rather they just popped over for an hour or two while we chilled and watched TV or something..
Thats why I *love* the internet!!Nikki x
