There's this weird thing where normal human beings are able to observe other people's feelings and actions and understand and sympathize with them, even when they can't personally identify with them at all.

It's sort of difficult for sociopaths and narcissists to grasp though, yeah.

Wow congrats that's the dumbest thing I've seen.

Identifying with a character actually DOES help in writing them. and needing to identify with a character to feel like you can write them or preferring to have something you relate with the character on or identify with them DOESN'T make you a sociopath OR narcissist.

Quit being an armchair psychologist

Just need to say: this.
Also, you seem to be forgetting empathy, OP. "Identifying with" a component of empathy.

(Anonymous) 2014-08-31 01:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Except that sociopaths and narcissists lack the ability to identify with people. Identification is a key component of empathy, and sociopaths and narcissists do not feel empathy. That's what makes them what they are.

So, not only is it offensive for you to imply that OP has one of those two issues, it's also wrong.
