<human>: Provide a brief overview of the text.

I am a 21 female, my boyfriend is 24 male.

I've included my boyfriend in the title but it happens with most people that are not my direct family.

When people are hurt, upset, or complain about their lives I feel immediate rage? I don't feel sorry for them, or see where they are coming from. Just mostly anger and emotions I can't describe, often a lot mixed into one. I can't force the empathy, I just try to find solutions and I think it's good enough when what people really need is support.

This is manifested mostly with my boyfriend of two and a half years. Overall a good relationship, I am happy but I cannot stop myself feeling intense jealousy or anger when really, anything happens to him. If it's good or bad I just feel the same. I often have to force emotions to not look like I'm heartless when I genuinely want to feel positive emotions. He gets sick? I feel angry. He gets a job? Anger. I feel anger when I hear about his family, or his childhood. I am jealous of people with genuine emotion.

I've spoken to my boyfriend about this trouble with emotion but I think there is something fundamentally wrong. I love him dearly, I don't want to throw him away because I'm cold. We are looking to move in together at Christmas, but how can I get past this knee-jerk reaction of anger when it's going to be hard to hide considering I'm going to live with him.

Normally I just leave a conversation and come back to it when I've calmed down or change the subject. I feel I'm selfish and immature, but no matter what I do it's the first and only reaction.
<bot>: I feel inexplicable anger when my boyfriend and other people are sick, upset, when good things happen to them, when bad things happen to them. I have trouble feeling empathy and often fake it.
