How important is Empathy to you in a relationship? To me it shows emotional intelligence, kindness which I need in a relationship. What are people's thoughts?

I don't think anyone can ever be completely empathetic. What is important to me is an attempt at understanding each other's feelings and experiences. It's a two way street.

I'm very empathetic to people's needs, I try to understand people's perspectives but as you say it has to be a two way thing. If someone isn't interested in how that person feels or what they're going through it's an uphill battle.

Definitely

Very difficult to find though. I feel I have too much and that's definately taken advantage of.

It's important and an essential factor to connecting with someone on a deeper level. Not everyone has natural empathy but trying to understand others and putting yourself in their shoes builds better relationships. I don't expect people to have the same level as empathy as me but they need to be willing to try.

It's important

But I couldn't be with someone overly so...that's draining

I find empathy and emotional intelligence sometimes lacks when meeting people on here. Or they do have it but its expressed in unusual ways. In relationships outside of fab i place more importance on empathy and emotional intelligence.

It's important both ways as long as it doesn't bleed into or encourage neediness.

Very important to me. Usually 15 minutes at most is all it takes for me to be able to read people pretty accurately first time meeting them. Not hard to do.
