Lately I have noticed that things other people react to has no effect on me…for example if there is an accident and people all around are panicking I remain calm and composed I am not saying that it is a bad thing but I show no emotion…its like I am a guy who is totally depressed and I know that’s not true (and I am not in denial)… sometimes I feel like I work with cold logic…without any heart so I was wondering if there were guys out there who feel the same thing…and if its normal to feel this way???

yup, sometimes I get that way too, in the past mostly, like you are just an observer in life or something
somebody or something must have hurt you pretty badly.
maybe get a good therapist, and get in touch with your feeling again
talk to strangers, volunteer to teach kids maybe, or visit lonely old people

I dont think you were born this way, but I do think you are going through something similar to what I am. We do not understand the purpose behind things that make others feel important thus we show no emotion. I have been this way for years. I am very loving and compassionate in some areas, but in others, it is not that I dont care, I just dont understand what the big deal is all about.
It is sorta an evolving type thing. Your thought level is getting deeper and you are questioning the reasoning behind why people do what they do and most of it doesnt impress you anymore by the sounds of it.

There is nothing wrong with remaining calm and composed. I dont think that is emotionless, I think that is showing a hightened control over your emotions. Nothing wrong with that. I react emotionally, however I have a tendancy to over think and over-logic everything. That combo seems to be dangerous, lol I wish I could react without emotion sometimes.

Yes, such people exist. You are not the only one, but so as you describe yourself, I estimate that you are within 0,5% (1 of 200). As always with human abilities, is it inborn and a matter of education and personal experiences.
If you, or if people around you, suffer under your behavior , then your case is serious and you might make a therapy. If you nobody suffers, so be glad that you can stay calm in difficult situations. Than my compliments and good luck.

You know, in order to take the best decision in a critical moment or to find the best solution to a problem, it is often reccomended to remain calm. So, what I'm trying to say is that even a calm person's heart can be "touched":)

yo i feel the exact same way.i am just like u. i got into a car crash recently and while everyone was worried and angry.i didnt feel any way, i never even had fear for my life or anything, like i was not worried, ive been like this for a while now. i also agree with one of the answers above about the "observer in life thing"...i feel so emotionless sumtimes,because i dont find the same things interesting as my friends do.the advicec i giv to u is find sum new friends.say wat u want, be who u want, and if they dont like it,tough luck! u should not worry about wat other ppl think.(if this doesnt apply to wat u sed, then ignore it,i think i may be giving myself advice)lol.good luck tho, BE YOURSELF!

Being calm and controlled is an emotion, one most wish they had; therefore, you are not emotionless!
Peace out,
