Is empathy a thing?

Me and some friends were talking about empathy, and one of them said something to the effect of "empathy is just about making others like you, so you benefit.". I am having a hard time getting around this idea, so here I am. Thoughts? [spoiler]Yes, I know this is a weird place to ask that, but this seemed like a better place than reddit.[/spoiler] [spoiler]please, no god(s).[/spoiler]

    Empathy is a thing. Like lets say some one dies instead of having sympathy and saying "I'm sorry for your loss" Empath is when you sit down with that person and say "I understand your pain and I'm sorry for your loss" empathy is being able to understand and share pain
