i can sometimes

Sometimes. If people don't want me to know they're sad then they're pretty good at making me question my interpretations, and it's not hard to convince me that I'm just projecting anyway.

I have difficulty unless it's obviously shown, yet another thing to work on

I’m very in tune with other people’s emotions

Yes to both.

I'm pretty empathetic to ppl. And I can always spot my own sorrow🙂

Yeah, I am an empath and I pick up other people's energy

Yeah, too often, but probably not always. I sense my own sorrows when I awake from daydreams of the horror sort and say something aloud that should only have been said inside that dream.

I'm painfully empathic for a bloke

No. My sadness is a very confused mess, I don't know.
