well thats just stupid. if my loved one is hurting, I want them to not be hurting because I love them. I'm not frustrated, I want to help. I would expect the same from them.

This confuses a possible explanation with a psychological fact. Trying to fix someone’s problems can come from anxiety, but it can also come from care. The key is understanding why you feel compelled to help, not assuming that helping means you can’t tolerate discomfort. Empathy and problem-solving aren’t mutually exclusive (Batson et al., 1987).

when you complain to someone, you are bringing them into your distress. don't blame them for trying to fix it. (this is a post about men and women)

Thomas :
so before you offer to fix something or give a solution ask yourself did they ask me to fix it? did they ask for a solution or did they just want me to listen

I don’t know if it’s a low frustration tolerance so much as confusion on why you wouldn’t just want a problem solved when it arises. Especially when the solution is straight forward but is ignored

Yall miss the point. Empathy is the point. Telling someone you’re struggling isn’t automatically asking them to tell you how to handle it. Sometimes you’re saying, “This is really hard, and I want someone I trust to understand what I’m going through”. And hear them out before handing out advice. Advice can feel dismissive when someone has already decided what the problem is before you’ve finished explaining it. You’re still trying to be understood, and they’re already issuing instructions. No thanks.

So this isn’t universal at all. It CAN be what’s going on, but for most people, it IS empathy. Sitting with it is fine. Immediately trying to fix it is fine. It just depends on the people involved and problem at hand. So, if you are overthinking whether or not you’re being empathetic or selfish, just remember that you can be both at the same time without it being some moral catastrophe.

if it's second hand anxiety, isn't that technically empathy?

The next one of these will say, when your partner or friend is in distress and you just sit with them in silence instead of trying to help, it’s because you’re a psychopath…. 🙄

Courtney Boles :
I do it because they are hurting and I know ways to make the hurting stop . They don’t have to take my advice but if someone I know is struggling , I’m immediately offering all advice and knowledge I have on the subject because I will never sit and let them hurt , we’ll figure this out right now and make you feel better ♥️

Let me get this straight… If I went to a friend and I was going on about a problem, if they try to help me fix that problem… That’s a negative thing? Got it.
