I realized recently that there are very few things people say to me that I consider an overshare.

This is possibly "a slight flaw in my character". :)

I am the same way. I look at it as being interested in people's whole stories. :-)

Does that mean you think people are good at only telling you what you can handle, or that only rarely does the firehoses of personal stuff people tell you go beyond what you want to hear?

Either way, I don't see the flaw.

That's a feature, not a bug. :-)

The latter: "only rarely does the firehoses of personal stuff people tell you go beyond what you want to hear?"

Either way, I don't see the flaw.

I should explain that the quote is a Barry Hughart reference. :)

I figure if you tell someone something they said is an overshare, they'll stop telling you things.

I don't want that. :)
