Are you in a relationship with an over-thinker? Well, here are some tips for you.
Over-thinking is the defining feature of some people but it is not their fault, it is something that they cannot help. But sometimes over-thinking can complicate a lot of things. The life of a person who ruminates is difficult but it is even more difficult to be in love with one!!
Here is how to understand them better.
1. Stop
Do not tell them to stop thinking. This will rather induce them to think more of what can happen and all the other crazy stuff.
2. Clarity
Always be to the point with your words. Over-thinkers analyze each and every thing; so be honest and straightforward with them.
3. Truth
Stand true on your words. Your partner needs to know who you are to the core.
4. Confidence
Your partner needs to have full confidence in you. They will not feel secure around you until they have complete confidence in you.
5. Optimism
Over-thinkers tend to think negatively; thus optimistic approach from your side will help them a lot.
6. Space
Over-thinkers are afraid of commitments, so give them enough time and space to function at their normal level. This way, they will trust you more.
7. Express
Give some chance to your partner to express their feelings. They will feel more settled.
8. Appreciate
They notice all your small, small actions and appreciate good intentions. They themselves have a caring heart.
9. Irritated
It is easy to get irritated when your partner needs continuous reassurance and comes up with infinite conspiracy theories! But try to listen to them and remember the love and care that you get from your partner.
10. Details
Your partner needs more details of everything. They want to know things in their entirety. Also, they are very punctual and want everything to be based on a schedule.
Over-thinkers create problems in a long term relationship due to tendency of over-analyzing things. But you can help them maintain their peace of mind and at the same time build a relationship based on love and trust with the most loving and caring types of people. No matter what happens, they will never leave your side.
