Are you naturally empathetic or do you have people question your empathy?

I have noticed that the same people who always want others to have empathy never have any for ANYONE else.
I know that is of course what self absorbed people do... But why do they always need to project onto others?

I have more epathy for animals. Some people i feel more for than others. Most of the time i would rather not get involved. Consider myself a more professional empathy without any real service.

I always get called out for farting in public. People say it makes them uncomfortable and I should be more empathetic to that.

I don't understand my own empathy most of the time, idk if it's because of TV or being exposed to it pretty much daily but whenever I see something horrible on the news about someones kid getting snatched up or someone was murdered or someones house caught fire or whatever else I could literally not care less, if anything I get mad anymore wondering why it's being broadcasted to me and how it should in any way be considered news or how it's supposed to be beneficial to me to constantly be reminded bad shit happens sometimes as if no one already realizes that.
Yet at other times I'll go against my better judgment and watch something horrific and want to cry with these people and sometimes do because of how tragic what I'm watching is. Like the other day I watched a video of a muslim father coming to his home and finding his two young children dead from chemical attacks and picking their bodies up while crying hysterically or a video of a muslim woman repeating forgive me while her father disowns her and stoned her to death for either being raped or just having sex and I had to shut both off because I teared up a little and wanted to cry.
It's hit or miss for me, lately I feel I mostly get empathetic towards people I actually know and care about or meet in everyday life but occasionally I'll feel deeply for other people if it's shown to me even though 95% of the time I'm completely apathetic to it if I'm just watching it. Certainly don't care how other people feel about whatever it happens to be when I barely understand my own feelings half the time.

People who know me well tell me I'm very empathetic and at my core a very good and kind person who "almost feels too much"
I dont know though. There are times I feel close with everyone and everything in the world nothing but love and compassion for complete strangers..i want to help everyone. Other times the world feels cruel and full of almost nothing but shitbags, and I feel indifferent.
Yeah I'm an extra sensitive emo fag, the secrets out. What can I say I have a sort of moral compass engrained in me and as the years have passed I've experienced a lot in life that has helped shape me..Give me different insights that allow me to empathize on a much deeper level.
Typically the young and the immature are without empathy. Very few truly evil people exist imo, most are ignorant.

I always strive to put myself in other people's shoes and do my best to attain a kind of mutual understanding. Understanding is key in dealing with things in a healthy way. I've been told I'm a good listener, I can't imagine anyone questioning my level of empathy. I can be sensitive.

Yeah... Don't come to me for empathy. I'm not even sure what the dictionary definition of it is...

Most people think I am cold because I am fairly blunt, I am not trying to be rude, just how I am, I don't think I am being a dick about anything, but maybe I am and don't realize it.
