      Some overshare because as trauma survivors who endure years of projection, accusations and gaslighting fueled smear campaigns their reality was denied and survivors were accused of lying so it’s really sad how being invalidated causes a person to be desperate for validation and talk fast and overshare desperate to be heard. Once you heal all that stops then you’re left thinking omg wthfk did I say all that for...oh well lol.

    I’ve been guilty of this. I remember oversharing because I felt I could make a more genuine connection because I was being “real.” When I didn’t get the same sharing back I felt embarrassed, I resented people when they weren’t willing to tell me about themselves in the way I did for them. Even though I would feel really uncomfortable and vulnerable when I overshared I felt it was still better than being cold and closed off. This ended up with me completely isolating myself because I couldn’t handle the emotional exertion that came with sharing myself with others. I guess it’s about balance, not feeling that you need to offer every part of yourself or avoid the relationship completely, but taking the time to feel out what is comfortable for you and the person you’re with.

      I think I will continue to share and if the person doesn’t share back I will also not do it, because sharing makes me feel better it makes me excited and it’s exciting hearing others. Of course, there are boundaries like work or total strangers you shouldn’t share to, but overall total privacy seems suffocating and lonely, to me

    If you look back on the times you “overshared” to a person and cringe hard, you might just have a problem with vulnerability. Being a naturally private person is fine, but don’t try to convince yourself into becoming private for the sole purpose of avoiding “cringe” or others’ judgement. Knowing yourself and feeling confident enough to share that energy with others may be ultimately more freeing to you. Depends on the person.

    3 PRO TIPS:

    2. Just bc you forgive someone doesn't mean s/he has changed!
    3. Ppl will treat you how you ALLOW them to!
    That last one is what you were referring to re: boundaries. If you tell ppl everything, they then feel entitled to know more, give their 2 cents, or judge you, & I've even had friends act like I MUST overshare bc they did, as if it's an obligation. Keeping your circle small isn't a bad thing, just less complicated, & you can be picky - as you said, we owe no one anything!

    I used to work with someone who would always ask me and others on Monday what we did over the weekend. A seemingly harmless and normal Monday morning question but there was always this sense that if answered with any kind of detail you’d be mocked for it. It was her “way.” She didn’t think she was doing anything mean-spirited it was just her annoying and immature way of relating to people. When I started withholding details and would leave it at “not much, kinda quiet” it would get turned around into “Ha! You never left your apartment, right?” As if an occasional weekend hibernating and relaxing in your NYC apartment was the worse thing ever. You would think that when we grow up and leave high school and college and become adults in the real world we’d leave a lot of the childish adolescent ways of relating to other people behind but some people make them a way of life. Makes me want to avoid people a lot of the time.

    2) I don't share actionable information. I don't tag people in my photos, I post things AFTER they are complete, and I hide my friends list when possible
    3) I use separate usernames & a private social media email address/google phone number to create the accounts. You won't find my accounts if you get my number/email or are friends with me on another platform (my name is not cam hahaha)

    When I worked a retail job, I would share one neutral activity I did per weekend, and once I was in a long-term relationship I would always share that information. It gives you something to talk about and then the rest of the conversation you just let your coworkers share their thoughts (and the second one fends off any advances from colleagues).

    I'm an introvert and I don't share much to people I'm not too close with. But, I tend to overshare to my close family and friends and this isn't the best thing to do because they too can get bored or judge me. So, I try not to share too much but end up feeling lonely, which causes me to end up oversharing eventually. Ugh, it's such a dilemma sometimes.

      And when you do, you wonder why the replies would be negative and rude because you put your TMI all over the internet.

It is better to do so rather than bringing it all to the table for the whole world to see. 😌 My old friend used to do this told me what she wrote on Facebook a few years ago. Not a very good idea.

    My friend and her husband (childless) shared their dream child name along with its meaning and reason of choice to their family and the husband's own mother, "stole" it and used that name for her daughter's second child (ie, her second grand-daughter). Words can't explain how hurt and betrayed they are. So, yes. Keep your dreams private. Sometimes, even from your own family.

    Kelly Stamps, I have a lot of experience when it comes to having a “BIG MOUTH”. I got the big mouth from telling everyone my personal life from listening to my father and his mother brag about everything that you just mentioned. For the past 30 years of my life I told my friends and my co-workers and some family members everything about me on what was going on in my life. Because of me having a big mouth, nobody taught me the reasons why it’s so important to keep your personal life private. One day I decided to write a huge list of what never to tell anyone about my life, from money, to jobs, to what my wife did for a living. Never ever will I do that again. They all used everything that I said to them as a way to hate me. Don’t talk about anyone or anything that’s going on in your life. Be humble and be the listener then people will like you better. I learned the hard way.

      @@iamtomeka7971 I hear you but this is why I said “relative strangers”. Pouring your heart out to a receptive stranger on a train who you’ll never see again is different from inundating work acquaintances and Facebook “friends” with the gory details of ones personal life on a semi-regular basis.
      I have been the receptive stranger to quite a few people but I don’t want to be told deeply personal information about people I don’t really personally know. Or worse, people I have yet to meet but may in the future. It makes the potential friendship or relationship extremely lopsided because I know more about them than they know about me.

    I think often over sharing comes from our need to be liked/validated or seem important to people. Part of becoming more private is just growth and humility. You don’t need to prove your worth to anyone. I think it’s nice if you can have one or two close trusted friends or family members who you can be vulnerable with and share, but beyond that….privacy is everything.

    If you feel the need to share or over share you can always journal or scrapbook your memories and experiences like people did back in the day. That way you can revisit your experiences without a digital trail. A lot of times people share photos and things they are excited about as a way to digitally journal a positive experience.
