How to stop oversharing?
Slow down: Always pause and think before you speak
Consider anything you share with someone who hasn't earned your complete trust or whom you have a transactional relationship with to be a PSA; Don't trust anything to be confidential with someone you don't fully trust
Reflect on why you overshare in the first place: Do you use it as a tool to soothe social anxiety or pauses in a conversation? Are you lonely or feel like it's a struggle to feel heard/seen/appreciated in your everyday life? Start journaling and/or go to a therapist to work through these very valid emotional wounds
Give yourself a "do's" and "don'ts" list on topics you will and won't discuss at work, different social events, with certain acquaintances, family members, etc., and stick to it
When you feel yourself starting to overshare, take a pause and ask the other person about themselves – it makes you show the other person you're interested in connecting and gives you time to think/reflect on what you should or shouldn't say
Hope this helps xx

Finding and maintaining new adult friendships seem nerve wrecking to me. I overthink and undermine myself then become a nervous mess, while my brain is on a loop - what it they think I don't look good, what if they don't have a positive impression of me, what if they deem I can't mingle with them freely ... and so on 😔

A lot of people say that they would never agree to go on a dangerous "choosen one" journey if it happened to them in real life for some reason
Me? I'm so gullible and naive that if a total stranger was just a little bit kind to me and didn't ask for anything suspicious I would totally go on a quest for them.
Reward? No no, the adventure is the reward, the break in routine, the sight of new places and new people, the conversations and connections it would bring me, the adrenaline, leaving your normal life and worries for an temporary objective you can feasibly reach.
I lack all of that being at home all the time so I would gladly interact with any charismatic stranger that might have a mission for me

✧ Now that I finished this post, I can post my first ever Art vs. Artist for 2023! ✧
✧ Sadly, I didn't get to draw as much as I wanted this year, (also considering my files got deleted), but I'm still proud of the art I did manage to get done, and I enjoy seeing my improvement every year. ✧
✧ A lot, and I mean a lot happened this year, but I look forward to what I create next. ❤️🌸 ✧

Where about on Kansas ... I have some jeepers in KC area...
I'm thinking about Junction City or Manhattan area, which is why I was looking into the Flint Hills Jeep club. Investigating options and trying to figure out how to meet new people.
I'm open to ideas..

Nobody asks fun questions anymore. What do you do for work? What's your sign? Are you from this city? You come here a lot?
If someone asked me my favorite star wars villain or my least favorite dinosaur at this point I would be married ALREADYY
I'm talking about when you are like in a social situation and people ask things. Not necessarily a pick up but like a hey... idk.
I need to discuss real stuff LMAO
