You take me without asking
Yet you never want me.
You can find me where no-one else has,
Yet I can be shared.
You can give me back again,
But I will not leave you.

What am I?

Offense seems to fit too.

I take offense without asking for it. I never want to take offense. I can take offense at something that doesn't bother anyone else, or others can share my offendedness. I can give offense in return, but I'm still offended.
