I'm definitely empathetic and I can sense emotions in strangers too. Or I can sense where they are headed, such as the coffee shop. I was standing next to a woman, waiting to cross the street. I had a strong feeling she was going to Starbucks, and she did just that. Or I can sense the driver in the next lane is going to cut me off. And they do just that.
Another time I recognized an acquaintance from a distance in a parking lot. I could tell by her gait that she was agitated and in a hurry, heading towards the grocery store.
Some people are born with a greater number of mirror neutrons than others; I think this is us. I'm also highly sensitive. It's like I have built-in radar, and I don't just read facial expressions but body language or tone of voice. In a nutshell, I can pick up signals that sometimes I'd rather not be picking up. But it seems I can't control it, really.
I'm not sure if people can detect anything in me, but I pick up things from them. Just wanted to post that I believe I can relate, but like you I don't know how to stop it.
