Are you an over thinker?

Mr.

I am, lady jools is always complaining that I never just do something I have to analyse every thing before I make a decision.

Buying a car takes month's of research.

Changing phone's is a similar story.

If someone says no.it can't just mean no to me it has a deeper and usually more insidious meaning.

It's so frustrating but it is just the way I am.

Even this post took about three re writes before I thought it ok.

So are you the devil may care

Compulsive type.

Or like me everything has to be thought and mulled over for ages before anything is decided?

I'm an over-thinker and have set up Over-Thinker's Anonymous. I should resurrect it but I'll have to consider whether that would interrupt the flow of your thread and just remind those in recovery that they are really over-thinkers.

I wouldn't describe myself as devil may care but I don't overthink, I tend to find small decisions far more difficult to make than large ones though.

I forgot to say that I am decisive though. I have to be.

Do it, no don't.

But if you do will people ignore this thread? But if you don't will they wonder why...........

You see nothing is easy

Problem solved as I think the thread has been lost in the mists of time. A search produces no results.

I do over think things, probably more so before. Have relaxed a bit. But I have my moments of reading into things, mulling things over and not making decisions, putting them off for months sometimes.

Yes and no!

NO : I make seemingly big decisions really quickly and for example, I know what I want when I buy even bigger things like a car or even a house. Some would say I am (always have been) a risk taker in that way.

Yes : Then again, I like "thinking for the sake of it" in other areas like morality, values, dilemmas, relationships, languages and their different ways of expressing the culture of the linguistic community etc. I can ponder for ages over what made a person act in a particular way on a particular occasion and I really enjoy that reflective stuff.

So, partly overthinker and partly spontaneous to the extreme

Not me I am afraid.

As a carpenter job's take far longer than they should, as I have to consider every possible way of doing a job before I do it.

Last year we purchased a new tent it took me weeks to find the right one,even after I was still thinking if I had made right decision.

I think I overthink insignificance sometimes and underthink really significant stuff

I guess it's easier to worry about nothing than to really have something to worry about

Isn t that interesting.. how we are different in our approaches?

My OH also spends a very very long time over decisions what mobile/ car/ holiday whereas I can just decide on that in less than 5 minutes. In fact just changed my mobile Sunday afternoon in this way.

Impulsive with some stuff and carefully research others.

It's a dangerous, unpredictable combination. Dictated by the situation but mostly my mood.
