10 Reasons You May Be An Over Thinker, And You're Probably Overthinking These Reasons, Too
Aspen Graham

Have you ever been in a situation where a very drastic thing has happened to you? Maybe that guy you're crushing on asked you for a pencil or maybe your BFF didn't offer you a sip of her Mocha Frappuccino Latte with almond milk and two pumps of caramel.

If any of these things have happened to you, people have probably told you to just stop overthinking it after you confide in them.

Below are 10 ways you may actually be an over thinker.

1. You'll contemplate a single text for hours.

Your crush sends you a vague "Hey" and your mind goes into overdrive. "He still has my number? Does he need help with homework? Is he just bored?" The world may never know.

2. You can't sit in a public place without feeling every eye on you.

Eyes, eyes, they're everywhere!

3. When typing anything you'll rewrite it 8 times.

4. ....and then back out of sending it.

5. Procrastination is your middle name.

You overthink a project for so long that life becomes meaningless and your bed is the only thing that makes sense.

6. Any relationship feels like a maze...specifically the one in The Shining.

Do they actually love you? Is this a Con into kidnapping you and selling you for two goats and bucket of lard? Maybe your whole life is really a dream and you'll wake up from it if you think about it hard enough.

7. You never make any executive group decisions and have to end up eating gluten-free, vegan, eggplant pizza.

8. Feelings are like feral cats...very, very bad.

You'll swat them away at the first sign of danger. Every time.

9. You have the confidence level of a barnacle.

There's a reason barnacles hide on the underbellies of whales.

10. When you do make up your mind, nobody listens.

This is the price you pay for #7. Eggplant pizza, my friend.

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.
