I’m one of these people who cares too much. Sometimes I have to put me a stop because I think I can cope with more than I do really can. And sometimes I distract myself from my own growing and this is not what I want.
I think maybe without being aware I tend to do it because I gain something. Maybe, I feel bad when someone around me have a problem and I don’t even think it twice to give them a hand. So, I think I do it for pure empathy and also because I feel better with myself.

In your case, I also thought as a mote of soul that, so much attention, excessive, as it is even for me, could be due to your attractive or something in their agendas. Maybe what Divine says or even you pointed out about you being autistic and waking up empathy.
I don’t know. I understand you don’t feel confortable with the situation.
