If the following scenario sounds like you, then you just might be an overthinker. Read on for seven crazy things overthinkers can relate to.
Imagine this: You sent a text to a person that you just went out on a date with, and it said you had a great time and would love to hang out again.

He didn’t actually say that. Maybe he really doesn’t want to see me again and didn’t want to hurt my feelings, so he thought it was easier to say nothing and just send a smiley face. But wait. Maybe he’s just busy and didn’t have time to write anything, and he’ll write again later saying he had a good time, too. But wait. If he were really interested, he would have made the time to write back even if he’s busy… But wait.…”
