I was just wondreing if anyone else here can pick up on vibes. The best way to descibe it is that you can feel where others are(it's kind of a tingly feeling), also if somone around you is feeling a strong emotion you feel that emotion.

funny that you should ask. Yea I do that some. everyone in the family (except dad) do. But could I tell you when Im talking face to face with someone what they are feeling? nope. But I can enter a room and generaly without interacting at all, I can get an idea of the general "mood". I seem to be better at the "someone is watching me " kinda feeling, or the "someone entered the room behind me" feeling.

I've tested it out and these abilities can be controlled to a certain extent.

I pick up vibes all the time, and most of them seem to be very unpleasant.

If you know someone well enough, you definitely can get vibes.

Vibes sometimes. Curiously, I can trace the path of electrical cables around my room and house without having my eyes open.

Oh yeah, I'm great with vibes. Like sometimes, when I get home from uni and mum is in the kitchen screaming and throwing pots and pans left right and centre, man, I just kinda get this vibe... it's like she's angry or something...

:lol:

I get "uncomfortable vibes" from other people. But as for exactly what they mean or how the other person is feeling or why, I can't usually quite put my finger on it.

I can only do it through a monitor. It's like I know what the person I'm chatting with is feeling strongly.

Yes, I'm extremely sensitive to this and can feel other people's emotions.

No. I thought something was walking around me once. But I didnt feel tingly. And it scared the living daylights out of me.

Waaaay more than is comfortable, sometimes. There are rooms and places that I can't go into because it just feels depressing.

Agreed. I get a better gauge of emotions by chatting....must be why my only girlfriend was met online and asked out before we even met in person! :lol:

Interesting so many of you mention the "vibes" thing. Yes, I too pick up on what people project at times. It must be a counter-defence mechanism some of us Aspies develop to make up for our social ineptitudes.

It's a theory worth finding out more about.
