TMI

Why do people feel the need to give you all the information in their life. Really, I don't give a shit! I don't want to know that you are on your period, or every single detail that happened on your vacation. I didn't get to go anywhere, I stayed here doing nothing. Just working and going about my daily duties. I also DO NOT want to see the damn PHOTOS and if you try to show me I am going to make some excuse to leave! I realize that we all have an innate need to share things with other human beings. We are the only species that does this mostly because it is about the human connection. But please, make sure that the person you share everything with wants to hear about it.
I chew my boyfriend's ear off because I know I can and I know he wants to know. But I don't want to hear about a co-workers many blood donations. I also don't want to see the blood donor card. I just don't.
Maybe it is also because they want to fill the empty conversations with things that are insignificant. They have nothing better to say so they start to reveal all the things in their life because it is the only thing that they can really think of to talk about.
I don't want to know what size shoe you wear and why the shoes you have on now are painful. I don't want to know that ever since you started drinking juice drinks from Jamba Juice, that you gained 5 pounds. I DON'T CARE.
I only have a few people that I actually want to know things about. If you know you are not on that list, then I DON'T CARE!
Thank You
