I am SUCH an oversharer. Anyone else?

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!

All day every day. It makes me absolutely cringe later on.

Oh and my over sharing is massively exacerbated when I have a wine. Which is worse, because I over share and then cannot remember what I’ve said, but I know I’ve said it!

This is me!

Fellow oversharer here. I had a glass of wine (yes, it only takes 1 glass), at a social event for a choir I had joined 2 months before. They now know all about me, my friends, my family, - I reckon they know more about me than the people who’ve been members for 10 years.

Ugh yes - I’m another one. Also, although I’m a pretty good listener, I can’t seem to leave any silent spaces in a conversation. I just spew out anything that’s in my head in the gaps. Also too much grinning and cracking jokes. I’m a bit of a tit tbh 🤣

Nothong wrong with oversharing just know your audience!

If it helps OP, I adore an oversharer. In fact I think I subconsciously choose my friends this way x

@Whalewatching you sound exactly like me. Also to fill the silent awkward gaps, I tend to ask a lot of questions i don't always give a shit about the answer though to keep the conversation ticking along.

Yep and it freaks people out...so I have no friends. So I just chat bollocks on my online game instead. Game of thrones winter is coming if anyone is interested.

Todaynottomora · 21/03/2024 16:27

Don’t have regrets Changeusernameseeusernamehistory because that meme and this chat has helped me to know I’m not alone!

I am a teacher and I had taught three lovely students all the way through from year 7- year 13. In our last lesson together they recounted everything they knew about me from my stories in class. They knew everything-my schools, unis, grades, party tricks…it was hilariously terrifying!
