I've been accused of "wearing my heart on my sleeve" too. I'm too emotionally expressive and don't realize when I have an angry tone or facial expression etc. I get in trouble for showing I'm upset (for example, at work). Sometimes I do really exaggerated emotional display without even thinking about it like clenching my hands into rigid fists or claws when angry (my mom laughs at me for that). I also very much relate to what you said about empathy. I think my empathy is like yours, OP.
