When I notice I am overthinking I start with being mindful of that fact. Then I write down in short words what the thoughts are about. This makes it less all over the place and more manageable. Sometimes, this alone is already enough to get it out of my headspace. If not, I try to look at every thought individually. First objectively, then with emotion. Even if you don't work it out, it will feel more manageable. I try to stop within five minutes and continue the actual task at hand.

If you are ever unsure in a relationship, sometimes you are best to just speak to your partner/ friend and clarify what it is that you are worrying about

Try trusting your partner that can help. Sometimes we forget trust when we start to wonder who they are talking to or who they hang out with we worry about things more than we should. It is okay not to know everything about your partner!

Relationships are different experiences for different people. Some can glide through them on a day to day basis while some like to think things through. It is completely okay to sometimes think about stuff. However if it starts to hamper your relationship, try to talk with your partner. Most of the times overthinking comes from misunderstanding. Good communication is the key here. I hope it helps. Take care :)

The best relationships are the ones that flow naturally. Take things one day at a time. Take things at face-value. Enjoy being with the person! Don't think about the what-if's, just enjoy the feeling of being in love.

Personally, I think its all about changing the way you think. If you start to overthink, try to combat it with a positive thought or something to counteract it. Like for example, "No, its okay, You know them and you trust them, I trust they will not cheat." We all have those far out thoughts once in a while, just reassure yourself :) We all need it once in a while!! You can also vent, sometimes just getting it all out can really help and you realize what your saying, how it is not accurate how you are thinking. :)

Take a deep breath and remember it may not be the way things really are. Talk to your boy/girlfriend about it to clear things up and it will help

Just take a moment with your partner and talk about it. And if there is something they don't agree with, then both of you should come to an answer that both of you are happy with.
