When you love an Overthinker, you are loving someone whose mind plays tricks on them. You are loving someone who can’t help how and how much they think. So if you want to show how much you love them, you first have to know what unconditional love feels like for an overthinker.
Overthinkers are always going to have questions about your feelings towards them. They will be processing one thing at a time, and then constantly be overwhelmed with what ifs. So if you’re an oversharer, showing your love to them is gonna be a piece of cake.
You need to be one step ahead of them, never letting their head start to spin with self-doubt. So you need to not just tell them that you are there for them, and you need to take action and show them, instead of just putting words into their head.
You need to be compassionate and be gentle with their hearts — to understand when out of nowhere, they are being flooded with fear. When they think everything is terrible, while meanwhile, you think everything is great.
They can’t help how their brain is programmed to process life. They can’t help the thoughts that poke and prod them until they need to explode. So you need to show them empathy–to show them that you aren’t going to judge them for perceiving the world differently than you.
So yYou need to show them that you aren’t going anywhere when they share their worries and that you will love them, despite how much they repeat and overthink and over worry.
