Many people have that feeling due to stress burnout trauma etc, it is something youll need to build its sure harder to do when you know less people who share similar experiences some people who lack empathy just have it harder understanding different people's life experiences and struggles, simply because they never experienced it themselves, though what you can have which is very positive, is sympathy.

Seems like you also like being alone but not lonely its a balance you need to work on, im kinda similar i enjoy alot being alone focusing on my things, though i can get crazy if i dont see my friends in a while, but yeah you should have a friend or two to hang out once in a while

right ive been through stuff in life, but i still cant seem to care enough abt ppl or the problems around me

[eternal meadow]

thinkin abt it seems like a hastle already but i have been hanging out with ppl from uni cuz they never seem to wanna leave me alone

You dont need to overwhelm yourself with the problems that are around you but i would say to try practice symapthy with people you desire to be friends with, everytime for example if a friend shares an experience with you, you can try asking a question or show that youve listened its a useful tool, you dont have to completely understand on an emotional level just showing that you listen and have interest in what the other person is saying, goes a long way.

They seem friendly though if they want to hang out with you its worth a try, but if you feel like these are not your kind of people you can always find different kind of friends maybe more timid and share your interests, doesnt have to be from uni either, you can find groups on facebook discord etc.

Dont feel shy to tell some people you dont want to hangout with them right now its completely normal.

im blunt irl

thats why ppl think im b!itchy sometimes

but idk whats going on, im trying to figure it out but i just stuck here

[gilded sentinel]

Thats good though its good that youre blunt when you just dont feel like yoy wana hang right now thats normal

Being blunt is honesty as long as its not in a rude manner

In college i didnt talk to alot of people honestly just kept on like 3 good friends tbh i used to regret that but well theyre still good friends of mine at the end of college.

Though in terms empathy like i said you dont have to understand people's experiences on an emotional level

If you care enough about some people and consider them friends yeah just listening and showing interest theyll appreciate it
