It's definately hard not to overanalyze every word, email, text, etc. I excel at it, but the more I read about other people's situations, the more I realize how mistaken it is to think we can understand what's going on in the spouse's mind.
When I start making up scenarios in my head, I catch myself and think "stop telling yourself tales" or "stop making up stories."
It's a little thing, but it helps.
That's good advice. i find myself doing the same thing when I feel lonely.
