10 Reasons Why You Shouldn’t Mess With An Empath, EVER

[Charleh]

Input from one resident empath for you. Of course, I can’t speak for all empathic people.

As for me, yes I can tell when someone is lying but only when they are speaking live. I can’t identify a written lie nor an audio/video taped one either.

The sign is when the messanger’s emotions are completely incongruous with their spoken words. For some reason it seems that even when a person is very well practiced at making a false statement, their actual emotions are still evident.

By the way, I don’t find other unrelated emotions to cause interference in these instances. For example, if someone is seriously worried about a family manner, those emotions don’t seem to confuse nor interfer with their verbal message in a way that could cause their words to be accidentally interpreted as a lie. A purposeful lie seems to have a distinct feel. [Strangely, it is similar to what it feels like for me at least when I am watching a stage play live. Unfortunately in that case I already know at the start that the actors’ words and their inner emotions will almost always be incongruous.]

If I’m familiar with someone’s writing I can tell what emotion they were feeling at the time. As for videos and audio recordings, I can tell if someone was full of crap. It’s all a matter of sharpening this gift of yours, WandS!

I wish I had more of these abilities. I don’t trust my judgement of people anymore. I’ve been wrong a lot.

Reminds me of the one time I put some clear tape with the word gullible on the ceiling. And my dad thought I actually wrote it on the ceiling. Showed him XD

Empaths are truly gifted people in many ways. They are masters of reading body language and have no trouble reading your mind too. They innately know what you are thinking but not telling, even if you are not aware of it.

It is a rare gift which makes them what they are – empaths. They sense the feelings of others as their own which makes them great listeners and trouble-solvers.

Empaths have one rare trait that makes them even more powerful – these people are experts in human psychology. They need just one look towards a person and they can tell immediately if that person is a liar, faker, or evil, so they can protect themselves before hand.

Another trait a lot of empaths have, despite our capacity of compassion and putting ourselves in other people’s shoes, is were masters at manipulating. I found this to be true because I’ve always had the finesse to get out of the nastiest situations regardless of how my hands were tied in a situation. I have no doubt I could convince a robber to hand me their weapon.

Good point Charles. If I practice I can hope to watch even movies and TV series and feel the BS recorded on video tape or film too .

I don’t know if it makes a difference Lynne, but I’ve learned to trust my feelings more than my conscious beliefs. It doesn’t seem to matter how incongruous my feelings are, my gut feelings are almost always correct and my thoughts just get in the way and create competition for my decisions.

Some how my unconscious mind just seems to know better. I think I have too many personal preferences and community norms and morals that want to have a say in what I perceive. I try to recognize the existence of those inputs and push them aside.
