Should fix that problem right up.

Women don't over-think ... they go shopping.

HEY NOW!!!

Shopping does help!

Certainly, why consider the state of the retail sector of the economy were it not for shopping.


Thought? Overthought? Meh. Sometimes.


Cheers !

I overthink things a lot. My wife can't stand it. For example I'm watching TV and on the show/commerical someone sits down to dinner with a red shirt on. When that person stands up and has a green shirt on, I complain that they goofed. I have to restrain myself from mentioning it (I don't want her complaining about me over analyzing things again). I catch things like that all the time - like thoroughout the dinner, the glass of wine gets fuller and fuller... Just coming out of a shower, the actress already has her makeup done perfectly. When waking up, her hair has already been curled - not a single indentation from the pillow. When driving along in a car, the car's clock jumps forward and backward in time.

I cannot help myself from spotting these things.

I'm a decisive over thinker. I make the decission then I figure out what to do. For example, during my last semester of college I decided that I was going to go out to LA. After I decided I was going is when I worked out where I would stay, when/how I was going to move out there etc.

I guess I kinda got the whole proccess backwards, but it works for me so oh well.

EDIT: Also, while I'm over thinking I usually do it out loud and have a converstation w/myself. It works out much better that way (easer to keep things straight). Plus I'm my own devil's advocate.

I over think EVERYTHING. That is my problem. I will get in a relationship with a female..... then tear myself apart asking if it is the right thing to do. Asking what other people will think about us, if I would marry her, what she is thinking.... and so on.

When it comes to buying something new, I will read every review I can find online.... then find the best money/quality combo, then think aout fro another month then buy it.

I over analyze stuff waaaaay too much.

I'd say that's more paranoia and insecurity than being analytical.

Could be.

Sit down with a bunch of girls and watch a Lifetime movie. You will reach the conclusion in 30 seconds that the movie is crap and that it has no redeeming features - a correct conclusion. The women will debate the heroine's response to the insensitivity of the male character when told that she is dying of cancer.

Now who is overthinking?

A friend of mine once told me that if he asked me what time it was, I'd have to think about how a watch works. Sad but true.

Yes I most definitely am an over thinker. I think non stop... I can pass by so many hours just thinking. I look at things from as many different angles as I can think of. That sucks when I've got trouble with a relationship though because it ends up leading to depression, and it being my own damn fault. I can't really help it though. At least I don't do that with most things... I mean, I look at things from as many angles as possible and I try to make a point of being open minded, but I don't obsess with most things and think over them for hours like I would with relationship things.
