100 Places to Live Abroad Before You Die

Empathy Impaired

Empathy Impaired
 
I keep searching for a term to describe a condition of the mind I see or experience daily.
 
I was in the internet cafe this morning.
Two ladies from Germany were buying a bus to Koh Tao, maybe a cost of 500 Baht or about 13 dollars U.S.
 
They say,
- Can I pay with Credit Card? -
 
I do not even want to explain, it is just too stupid.
 
I could see the grimace in the Thailand girls face as she said no.

Only time I used a Credit card was to buy my flight home.... Noone carries $500 or so in cash i don't think!

Andy Here,
Everyone is empathy impaired at times, I learn every day how I fail to understand cultures or people. I laugh often to myself about the blog, the blog is written about MY experience, then it offends others.

I do not offend myself, the blog is written to myself. I try to not care about what other say or think. I try to share my experience. Then people are angry when I share my experience.

However many writers share what they believe their readers wish to hear. This make the readers believe they have a right to hear what they want.

This commment was not about money, it was about any empathy impaired situation.

Nobody is perfect, of course I am often with zero empathy.

I know when I type a sentence, I empathize exactly that I will offend.
