A person who is extremely softhearted and feels sympathetic for other people, such a person might offer sympathy to those people, who do not even deserve it
Etymology:
- This term originated in America. This term was used by people to describe the role of sensitive and caring people towards the neglected people. All those neglected people faced problems and they were left by the government. This gave motivation to those people, who were willing to help others by creating, joining or donating to a welfare body. They were known to have a bleeding heart, as they were concerned about the well-being of others too.
