I am SUCH an oversharer. Anyone else?

[lorase]

Got the ultimate ICK about myself tonight.

I'm a fairly open person but sometimes I just overshare that bit too far that results in me at 10.30pm sat unable to get the thing I shared out of my head - playing on repeat and CRINGING at myself.

This seems to happen so regularly to me!

Yep me. Even when I start off thinking I won’t on this occasion , I’ll be on my guard it still happens. The agony afterwards!

Oh OP me too. When you said cringing so hard I was transported back to one of my most memorable overshares and the cringing that accompanied it for weeks. Sorry, all sympathy but no advice

@lorase , omg!!! Very pleased to meet you fellow over-sharer!! People look at me like I'm nuts. But my DH always says, I can over share cause I've nothing to hide.🤗🤗🤗

Yup. Me. Not sure why I can't keep my mouth shut sometimes! It just sometimes comes spilling out!

Every day, all the time.

I am pretty certain I have undiagnosed neurodiversity.

Ive been told though many a time at work that it's a massively good way of building trust and relationships

What did you overshare, share it here 😀it probably wasn't really cringe.

I also overshare and ruminate later.

I think a lot of people do this, I do.

I think it's more likely you are an over thinker than an over sharer. Don't sweat on it too much.

Personally I love an over sharer! 😄 I can usually keep a lid on it, but have been guilty at times!

I’m not. But I have good friends that are and without fail they are amazing at striking up friendships and gaining people’s trust in a very genuine authentic way. People like oversharers! So maybe it’s actually a bit of a superpower.

Me!

The first time I met one of my now closest friends, she massively overshared. I just remember thinking “I have found my person!” 😁

I accidentally farted at yoga tonight, now that's over sharing for you 😬

Oh me too. My mum always used to say me
‘You have to tell everyone your inside leg measurement’. I always do!

Another one here. No bastard filter. Also an over thinker. And very hard on myself.

I'm definitely an oversharer, it's a bit of a running joke at work when we have our team welfare meetings, I'm always the first to speak, I actually say "shall I overshare?"
I've no shame, I don't cringe, I'm late 50's, got a lot of stories and had a lot of shit happen in my life.
Give yourself a break

I believe over sharers have a true pure heart ❤️ but unfortunately we sometimes share abit too much with a wrong person 🙄 just have to pick the good ones to share with. Not everyone is your friend.

Not me, but my neighbour. Never seen the inside of her house, but know a LOT about the insides of her...

I overshare and definitely appreciate other oversharers, but one of my friends is on another level - I reckon I could draw an accurate sketch of her fanny and all its ailments from the stuff she’s blurted out over the years 😂

Me!! I rein it in sometimes now, especially in professional settings but it’s a running joke amongst my friends. Ironically my best friend in the world is the least over sharing friend ever…🤣🤣

I don't see it as oversharing.

It's just a drill-down.

Isn't it?

I have ADHD and I'm terrible, my mouth runs away from me before my brain has grasped what I've said 😬 I try my best to rein it in but sometimes after I've spoke I die a little inside 😂

You don't have to pathologise yourself.

It's just an openness. If people don't like that I'm fine.

There's nothing wrong with being open.

I have the opposite problem, I'm a chronic under-sharer, but I love an over sharer so don't feel bad. The other person probably really quite appreciates it.

Unless you're a self obsessed bore, which some people do rebrand as being an over sharer, but is a different condition altogether.

I see that @NuffSaidSam.

I can't ever be bothered with not being truthful about my life.

Why?

@MysweetAudrina , that's crazy, cause I'm such an over thinker and very critical too. I wonder if there's a name for it?🤔🤔🤔🤭🤭🤭

I tend to overshare or overly hold back - I struggle with moderation. Usually when I overshare it’s because I’m terrible with small talk and seem the fill that space up with whatever comes into my head. I’m actually very good at deep conversations, but those awkward, small talk conversations, I’m not so gifted at.
