Mirror empath and the aversion

Hi, I’m interested in the mirror empath and why people can dislike them. I’m curious to know how the person in an interaction can detect the empath and therefore have an aversion to them.

I hope someone can help me find out. I’m an empath and I feel like I absorb people’s negative struggles just through their mannerism, vibe and facial expression. We get information about each other through mirror neurons mainly the face.

I can be in queue in a supermarket and this one in particular is outgoing, expressive, very social and happy but when they are finished with that person and then its me and my food to be processed, its like a very stony big wall, not a word to be said. I can feel resistance and fear. I am a regular and have encountered this particular person on many occasions.

With empath and interactive person, it’s like holding a mirror to the person and they may be masking. Trying hard to hide the real self. I just want to know how they can feel ill at ease with the empath if the empath is not disclosing. I’m now more confused.

I was looking for where this post fit, like in highly sensitive in the personality sub forum, but it didn’t exist.

I hope someone can shed the light for me. All the information i do see is what the empath is feeling in this interaction, how does the other person detect this, is it unconscious? That’s the part I want to know . I want to disguise my sensitivity and empathy.

Have a lovely day and thankyou
