Sympathetic people often don't communicate well, they back r

Summary

This quote suggests that sympathetic individuals may struggle to effectively communicate their own emotions and true selves. Instead, they tend to reflect the emotions and experiences of others, hiding their own profound thoughts and feelings. Sympathetic people may focus on understanding and supporting others, but this selfless nature can sometimes make it challenging for them to express their own inner thoughts and vulnerabilities. Their empathetic tendencies may lead them to prioritize others' needs over their own self-expression, resulting in a depth that remains hidden from others.
