I understand this.
The thing about empathy is that it's a double edged sword. A blessing and a curse. It helps make us completely human, but it can also make is soft and get us into situations we'd be better off out of. It's the basis for the whole empath/narcissist dynamic. I wish him well. But the peeps of this forum are my brothers and sisters and when someone comes in and says they are a psychopath, they are extremely manipulative, don't like people, fakes empathy and has learnt to fake emotions to get what he wants and blah blah blah then it is someone's duty to step up and get the dirty turd outta here. Maybe he's not a true psychopath. That doesn't negate the fact that he described himself as "extremely manipulative," or "remove the F from infj because I don't care about people" and whatever other stuff he said about himself. Sure, it's sad that a human can be that way, but by no means does that mean we have to be his buddy because he can't help it. Some humanoids are better empathized with at a distance. For all we know with the way he describes himself, all the things he is saying that tugs on the heartstrings of the empaths here is total bullshit. Just a way to manipulate.
Woah.
