Blaise Pascal said, "The least movement is of importance to all nature. The entire ocean is affected by a pebble."
I am an ocean. I can choose to feel the pebble, or to ignore it. But it is there nonetheless. If you extend yourself to me, I will feel it. I have made it a point to do so.
This is the flip-side to your other question, "Can you send your thoughts or emotions out to people?"
You can, at whatever level you choose. And those who receive, will receive at whatever level they are capable. I simply choose to be capable of more. ;-)

Yes. I've been told it is a gift, but it feels like such a burden at times. My heart hurts for others who are suffering physically, emotionally, or spiritually. I can sense distress in people and I'm more aware of them than myself at times...emotionally draining. I believe everyone has some special gift or ability that should be utilized in order to be fulfilled.

Of course, if I rip my chest apart and leave them to see my heart, I can definitely feel others... figuratively. I think the more we express our emotions, the more we open up our seams, the more others can feel your emotions. For example, we can lament our condolences for one's death and others will feel exactly how you felt because we express our feelings to such a great extent for them to feel. I think it's the warmth of the heart that others feel.
All figuratively. I don't know if I make any sense because there's no words to explain how I feel.

I believe so, but I don't open myself up. I have trouble trusting people, so if that's the way to feel others then oh well.

I suppose you can. Open your mind and listen with your heart. Feelings, how your thoughts, feelings and behaviors your body is telling you and discover the truth. The unconscious feel occurs and the breath deepens.

You could feel me if you open up!

I tried that once back a few years ago... but I almost got arrested for indecent exposure.
Luckily, I can run fast.
