Q: I tend to get immense pleasure when I poke fun at others. I know others feel bad about it but I kind of get helpless. I also tend to get too confident about my opinion about things. Since I am in USA, I do face an attitude problem at times. Please help me to come out of it before it aggravates further?

A:Empathy is must in life, feel what others feel, and that would help you to make relationships, and maintain them. If you have realised what needs to be corrected, then act on it.
