Insensitives

Empaths tend to look at insensitives as either sociopaths or psychopaths.  These are labels that belong in the realm of psychology.  Any given self indulgent person could be diagnosed with one of these labels, but I would leave that up to psychologists to decide.  Another label that is thrown around in the Empath circles is psychic vampire.  No professional would diagnose someone as a psychic vampire, and some say there are tall tail signs that someone is a psychic vampire.  Then there are people who are just unaware or blind of other people's feelings.  All of these are insensitives.  What I mean by insensitives is a group of people who do not sense other peoples emotion, and may not acknowledge them.  Have you ever wanted to tell someone, "Hey, I have feelings too?"  If so then you've been dealing with an insensitive.  Insensitives are people.  They are not necessarily evil in nature.  A good insensitive could be your best friend.  I want to spell out what I know what insensitives are like.

Insensitives mostly talk about themselves.  They tend to relate everything to themselves.  This may come across as pure selfishness, but I believe it is the way they can learn about the world around them.  So everything interesting to them is relatable to them.  They may oblige your point of view and be polite, but its not their cup of tea.

Insensitives tend to have love ones for selfish reasons.  They may still live or see daily their parents or children.  They may talk about their family as well.  I believe it's because they get some emotional security out of being around family.  While this may not seem uncommon, insensitives to tend to be around family more than normal or highly sensitive people.

Insensitives have to work at understanding another person's position.  If you have a friend that is an insensitive, you will find that they will try to relate to you by asking questions and engaging in endless conversation.  They may ask your opinions about things or reminisce the past with you.  They need to get understanding via only the five physical senses, which to me is a handicap.  I tend to pity them that way.

One annoying thing that insensitives will do is to be pushy.  This means that their minds are made up and give and take is over.  I find it best to let them be for a while when they get in this mood.  They will return to their inquisitive selves.

This is what I know insenstives are like, that is seemingly selfish, family people,  inquisitive, and pushy.  I have insensitive friends and family members.  I feel that for the most part insensitives can be good people.  Bad ones will try to dominate you.  If genuine respect is there, I don't see any reason why an empath can't have a good friendship with an insensitive.
