    I expected to get pretty low because for some reason I do very much understand emotions because I understand when people feel emotions that I think are ridiculous according to the situation.

    I got a score of 71 points

    I can't even focus on my emotions enough to answer the questions so I'm guessing high. I think I have a good imagination though.

    This is close I think, but I don't have that much trouble identifying feelings, I think the test is a little biased in that regard. It is generally right that I always know how others feel but don't know for myself how I feel.
