I was having a conversation with a friend during my Human Sexuality class and I mentioned how I tend to make friends with some bad habits. Like he'll actually pickpocket somebody and take their money. He then said to me that to get through life, you need to be somewhat of a dick, and added that i should cut out my empathy for people, because they're a lot less sympathetic than I think. I don't think I agree with him. What do you think?
