Oversharing

Oversharing: When is it too much ? The other day I was at a friend's birthday party where I knew half of the crowd attending. It was a cool crowd to be around, everyone really open and in a great mood after a few drinks. I mingled and moved around. On one of those moves I sat next to one of the women and just began to chat. She was really fun and outgoing and had me laughing a few minutes later. Then I went for cake and when I came back I sat with someone else and chatted. Later on that night we crossed paths again and started another conversation but this time she began sharing really personal things. She talked matter of factly about things you don't share, specially with someone you do not know. For example, how much she made, I sat quietly and she kept on providing more personal information than absolutely necessary. I nodded while feeling out of place and wondering if she had too much to drink.
Have you ever been in a situation where someone you barely know just overshares ?

 Compartir información: ¿Cuándo es demasiado? El otro día estaba en la fiesta de cumpleaños de un amigo donde conocía a la mitad de las personas. Un grupo muy ameno, amables y en excelente humor luego de unos tragos. Me moví por toda la habitación, teniendo la oportunidad de hablar con personas que conocía y las que no. En una de esas movidas me senté al lado de una chica súper divertida y minutos después moría de la risa. Luego fui a buscar algo de comer y me senté con otra persona a conversar. Mas tarde esa noche volvimos a coincidir, pero esta vez empezó a compartir cosas muy personales. Información que uno no comparte, menos con un extraño. Cosas como cuánto ganaba, yo permanecí en silencio mientras ella continuaba compartiendo mas y mas información de la necesaria. Yo sólo podía asentir con la cabeza mientras me preguntaba si era que ella había tomado mucho. 
Has estado en la situación en donde alguien que acabas de conocer comparte demasiada información contigo ?

Love that long blazer! That is definitely too much to share in my opinion.

Loving the long blazer with the dress!
Yea, some people deeeeefinitely overshare, haha. I'm all about talking about money and what you make, but not with someone you just met, haha.

Loving that longer-line blazers are in again. This is a great classic look.

Ha, alcohol does lower the inhibitions! Sounds like this lady felt like she had a bond with you, and trusted you. Some people are also just more open with strangers, too.

On the other side, when some people easily open up their inner-most darkest life situation, it's is a compliment. Not everyone has that aura to let people open up. We all need someone who can listen to us. . . but here's the thing, there are also people who open up just to boast themselves. Crazy world isn't it?

Cool blazer by the way. :D

Great post. Love your look and yes, I think many of us have. I quite like when someone talks about their life I feel there is some trust or the person really feels comfortable with you. There is also the alcohol factor, haha. xoxo Cris

Oh how awkward! Yes, I've been in that situation and I just try to keep my replies really short and not invite the person to share anything else!! I love this look--the classic black dress and flats with the vintage blazer is such a great combo.

I love the longer length of that blazer with your dress!

I find it tricky sometimes when people are oversharing - but I'm also aware that when people have a bit too much to drink they don't have the same filters they would normally, haha.

Hope that you are having a good week so far! I've returned to work this week which was a bit of a shock after a month off over Christmas, ha!

HaHa TMI! That's not good. If she talks to the wrong person, someone can take advantage of what she is telling them. Love that jacket with that dress.
