Why Does She Overthink Everything?

She's scared of rejection, judgement, and mental abuse.

She overthinks. We all do. But her? She overthinks everything; the simplest things, too. She overthinks until she can't think any longer. But, why?

She overthinks every Instagram, picking at every flaw she sees when she looks at the post. She overthinks because she doesn't want her insecurities to be shown to her thousands of followers. She overthinks because she thinks the smallest details will be noticed by those she doesn't want to notice them.

She overthinks every tweet that she sees. Could it possibly be about her? Even if she hasn't spoken to this person in forever, are they referring to her Instagram?

She overthinks when a guy shows interest in her because she's been broken so many times before. She overthinks how they're actually feeling. Are they actually into her? Or do they just want to mentally abuse her like past guys have?

She overthinks because she doesn't want the one person who she wants to judge her. She overthinks what she posts on social media because she knows he'll see it. Will he judge her? Probably not. But, in the past, guys have.

She overthinks flirting because she doesn't want to scare them off. One thing she says could either drive them away or make them want to stay. But does she say it? No, because she overthinks the scenario.

She overthinks what she's wearing because she thinks she looks stupid. She thinks her outfit doesn't flatter her. She pinches her extra skin in the mirror because she thinks they'll notice it under her baggy sweatshirt. She overthinks what she's wearing because she's never comfortable.

She overthinks without intention. She doesn't mean to overthink, it just happens. She overthinks because she isn't sure she's happy with how she is. Is she too fat? Annoying? Is she overthinking to the point where she's pushing people away?

She overthinks situations because in the past, she didn't think at all. She went into situations with an open mind, open heart, just to get things tossed back into her face. She overthinks because she used to not think at all. Now, she's scared of rejection, mental abuse, and judgement. She just overthinks.

She craves the attention from you and tosses away any bits of advice her close friends and family gives her. She doesn't want to overthink, but she does. She has an open mind, an open heart, and open arms, but she overlaps the openness with overthinking. She's worth it, though. Even though she overthinks, she loves to no end. She'd do anything for anyone. Be the person who makes her drop her insecurities and makes her open her eyes to her true beauty. Help her stop overthinking. Save her.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
