I have personal limits as to what I will discuss with my colleagues, and how far I will let them into my personal life.  I don't believe its good to be too close to colleagues.

I have however found that some people just blurt it all out - they don't care if you want to hear it!

Strange.  I would be too shy to unveil half the stuff, but others are really comfortable with it.

I don't know how I decide when its best to stop?  Maybe I share too little.  People feel that I don't warm up to them?  But which is better?  Oversharing / undersharing?

    i couldn't say which is better.....i know i tend to talk to much...i get really nervous and then all of my life story comes out.....i'd rather be a little less open about things.....
    not here necessarily...this is the place for it i believe......but in real life....a little less open...a little more propriety would be nice in myself.

    i'll talk about my wife and hobbies w/ colleagues. if a colleague has moved from co-worker to friend i'll talk about other things, too, but as a rule, i don't like being too open w/ colleagues, either.

    Yeah, I believe here it is OK, but still, it has limits for me. 

    I will probably never share with you the one thing that I'm dying to share.

    I don't know why I want to share it though.  Maybe just because I hope that I will feel better afterwards.  I suppose that's what psychologists are for, hey :P

As I currently am. It's been a long time since anyone was on the cards with the potential physical strength to do me the kind of harm I want, or an apparent interest in inflicting it.

As with all internet-first interactions I'm pretty much co...
In my normal, non-pervert life I am a very, very talkative person. I kidnap conversations. I monologue. I rant and deliver lectures. I can keep going for hours; I even do stand-up comedy......
