So I tend to have a habit of majorly overthinking stuff. I can play out past events in my head to pick them apart completely (usually in the moment I'm trying hard enough to get by to actually pay attention to what's happening), or I go over possible future scenarios in my head to "practice" difficult situations that might arise.
However, this goes up to 11 when I fancy a girl, and it kicks my butt everytime. It starts out okay, I feel like there's some chemistry, and then I start overanalysing everything she says or does or texts, and I either get way too desperate and clingy or fail to make my intentions clear and end up in the friendzone. It's just so hard to interpret signals, I keep doubting myself if she's just being nice or genuinely interested in me but just a bit awkward, like me.
So does anyone have any tips to stop the overthinking? I was texting with this girl and she suddenly stopped responding yesterday and since then I keep being locked up in my head and not able to focus on the stuff I need to get done. Any help would be appreciated!
