I am sorry you are going through that. It is definitely hard to have to go through and can definitely take a toll on someone and on a relationship. One of the ways I like is to challenge and question your thoughts. Questioning your thoughts using questions like "Is what I am thinking relevant to what's happening", "Are my thoughts based on facts" etc. Questions can help in overthinking. But of course, different things work for different people. So it might and might not work for you. I hope you find whats works for you. Wishing you the best. Good luck.

As they say ignorance is bliss. We are who we are. Look deep into whats causing the problem. Is it just nerves. Or maybe it's not you?

Talk to them. Take a minute to think about them things. Ask yourself questions like:
What do I want?
What am I thinking this?
Why do I want this?

Take some time for yourself. Too much thought about another person can lead to an 'unhealthy' obsession and that is not a good thing, right? Falling into this trap can be easy causing over-dependence, jealousy, and eventually depression. All of the latter states lead to a loss of your 'personal' power and can cause a relationship to deteriorate quickly which kind of defeats the purpose of the whole thing. Therefore it's critical when things reach an uncomfortable level in relation to you concentrating too much on your partner (or anything outside of your self for that matter) that you turn your concentration back onto 'yourself' and what makes you happy and feel satisfied (outside of your relationship).

This is going to sound cheesy but just let things happen when they happen, that means to not analyze every text or conversation, and to enjoy being with the other person. It'll make you both happier in that relationship

The Facebook "Seen" message gives me a lot of anxiety! When I see that the person has "seen" the message, but does not reply, I start thinking about all the possible reasons why they would 'ignore' me... Does anyone else feel this? If so, how do you cope?
