I too am guilty of been far too open. I think in my case it is that I don't see a great deal of people in my life. Add to the fact that I am socially gregarious and eager to be around people and it is a mix for a case of offering too much information.

I have difficulting curbing this when I am on my own. However, I have a code set of words with family and friends to use as reminders when I'm in larger social situations.

Still, in those situations when I have been on my own, I kick myself for allowing myself to do it. Not to mention I get embarrassed for doing so.

Does anyone experience that when they open up a great deal others in the conversation do too?
