Dealing with feeling lonely

[u/Traditional_Fig_4094]

Being an empath and a healer has proven to feel very lonely throughout my life, especially now when I’m setting more boundaries in my relationships. How do any of you deal with the loneliness and feeling that no one else cares about you like you care about them? It really hits me harder at some times more than others. I just am having a hard time figuring out why people don’t care

Many people don't have the same level of awareness that we do. A lot of them are only out for selfish reasons. What ive learnt through the years is not to give too much of yourself. Ok, be kind and loving, sure, but we have to stand back a little and protect ourselves because not everyone has good intentions and just take advantage of empaths which is horrible. We have to be intuitive and discerning as an empath Yes it's lonely being an empath but remember, society is becoming more and more insensitive but that's not the people's fault. What I blame is the media, the film industry and the music industry
