It’s a common notion that an empath is the one who experiences what the other person is going through but the reality is, an empath actually understands why the person is going through that particular phase. This understanding gives you a clear picture of whatever that is happening. However, an empath can differ from another empath in terms of feeling these experiences because each one of us have a varied set of empathetic abilities.
