How Empaths Love Differently
No matter how much they love someone and love spending time with them, they will often need time alone.
By Kelly Peacock
For empaths, love is unlike any other feeling. It’s deep and earnest. If you know an empath, you know they love differently — and damn it is beautiful the way they do. Anyone would be lucky to love and be loved by them.
Empaths are the kind of people who can quite easily sense the feelings of others. They’re deeply in tune with their emotions and have no problem expressing them. They can feel the slightest shifts in someone’s moods, just by how they speak or move. Empaths will take on those feelings and carry them like one of their own burdens.
Empaths love with an incredible passion.
They will understand their partner and how they want to be loved and do it with courage and conviction. They will sense the moods of their partner and will know how to handle them. Despite how deeply they love, it won’t be suffocating. They will know when to pull back and give less to their partner when they sense (from their partner) that they need to.
