Yes, if I found out that my friend is lonely and sad, then I am sad too. Simply because your friend is already part in your life. He or she can be considered as your sister or brother already. I always ensure that I can be able to help solve my friend's problem.
Have a nice day and God speed!

Unfortunately I am like a radar dish for emotions. If people are sad around me then I am sad, if they are depressed I am depressed. Which is bad for me right now because my husband is tired, depressed and stressed all the time right now cause he is in grad school which is making me tired, depressed and stressed. I wish I could do something about my empathiciness but it is a component of my personality.

Hi subin_loyolite,
Sometime i will sad too when my friends is feeling sad. I will try to suggest them the way to solve their problems or be a good listener to them. Try to listen what they willing to tell us.
Like last time, i and my friend are feeling sad. Then we go out to have a drink, after that we will tell each others what we have faced.

It depends on what thing that makes my friend sad. If it is the thing for which I feel real sympathy, I will feel sad too; if my friend just feel sad without any good reason, that is, for something not really serious, I will not be sad. However, in either case, I will try to cheer up my friend.

Yeah I do feel depressed when a friend of mine is really sad :-)
I usually look for ways to cheer him/her up.

well to be honest .. sometimes. . because i think it doesn't really help if you show youre sad too .. i mean if one person is sad the other should feel okay for him/her to tend on that sad person . . at least one of the 2 parties are capable of making the other one happy.
but i do feel sad . .(on the inside) yet i dont show it to them.

It depends on the reason that make her sad. If it's a really serious matter I will aslo feel her sadness but if it is just over nonsense matter I will definitely not feel sad. Probably, I will tease her or treat her to lighten up whatever "drama moments" she has. LOL
