I am applying this theory to one of my colleagues, who happened to be one of my best friends at this point. He works with me at my workplace for the last 4 years and he is my senior. However, he is very friendly and he never let me feel alone in the company. He is very warm and compassionate and he picks up on the emotional changes very quickly which makes him a very empathetic person. I chose him because he is very quick to learn about the changes and although he is emotional, he never let emotions affect his works. I find these traits very strong which made me choose him.
