We often bind our identities with the heart not because we are trying to feel, but because we are trying to express our feelings through something mental, like language. Overtime the heart is enslaved by the mind. But it still stands that there are no heartless people.
Identifying with the heart (e.g. sentimentality) is not a virtue. The heart feels regardless of the mind. No one is heartless. To believe in sentimentality as a virtue is to believe that there are heartless people, which isn't true.

Neither low-sensitivity or high-sensitivity are virtues. When things are getting too emotional, analyze and cut up the situation until it's less emotionally hot. Vice versa, stop over-analyzing things to create energy (e.g. 'sex' things up)

Both those who are under layers of armour and those who are trying to hump everything in the world in a psychic sense both don't feel heard. The former has given up while the latter is trying too hard.

Only when you stop identifying with your heart can you actually start following it.
