simplr raman ni ..............its the ability to understand your partner's
situations or feeling........also synonimous to the act of showing pity to
someone.....

in other simplier words......Putting yourself into that person's shoes
so that u will understand what he/she id going thruogh.

hope this helps.......

pls correct me if i misquote anything here....

^ You're right there. Empathy involves deep understanding to others.
Seeing situations/things from another person's perspective, and putting oneself into thier position.
With that you can gain trust from them.
