A straight gut-check

How to stop overthinking a text

Overthinking a text means you're filling an information gap with your worst fear. The fix isn't to think harder — it's to get the missing information, or accept you can't have it yet.

The reread is the trap: it never gives you new data, just more dread. Either ask them directly, or put the phone down. Both are better than the fortieth reread.
