I think it's separate from autism. In my experience, it's not that you don't understand or can't comprehend how other people are feeling: it's that you just miss it a lot of times, because you're not paying attention. We can understand how people feel, but it's usually not something that pops into our heads, because we're distracted/occupied with something else. In cases when we're not (rare, and as assholish as it is), we can care about and work with other people's emotions.
