>>43682894Exactly. If someone was in despair, first thing I'd do is give them a shoulder to lean on. I'll be there to listen, but I can't really understand what they're going through. Of course that isn't necessary to empathise over a person's struggles, but I don't want to feel like I'm a scumbag for seeming aloof either.
Doesn't help much that I didn't really cry much over my own grandparents' funerals tooI also feel the same when watching videos like you said - it makes me happy knowing they're happy, but it isn't something I deliberately seek out if I'm feeling sad.
