-I'm incapable of empathizing. When I try to, I just copy things I've heard other people say.
-I rarely say what I'm thinking and it's not necessarily negative things that I can't say.
-Pretending to be oblivious. It's basically a defense mechanism I picked up when I was younger.
-I hate getting involved in others' personal issues. I don't go to others with mine, so I get really annoyed when people come to me with theirs.... unless it's online.

I wouldn't know what to tell them anyway. They'd just get a bunch of, "yeah, um hmm, that's messed up, wow, really," from me, which also ties to me not really being able to empathize.
