Some people like talking. A lot. Whether face-to-face or online, aka sharing, it seems like they never get bored of throwing out their opinions every now and then. And while thanks to freedom of speech, everyone is welcome to share what’s on their minds, that doesn’t mean it’s not annoying.
Well, there is a whole corner of Reddit dedicated to precisely these kinds of posts. “Nobody Asked” is the name of the community with 362k members and according to their description, it’s “a sub for people who were never asked and yet, still explained far too much.”
Below we wrapped up some of the most entertaining examples from it, so scroll down below, upvote your favorites and be sure to share our previous post with people too eager to share things nobody asked them.

Do You Even Lift?
Oversharing is described as an act of “revealing an inappropriate amount of detail about one’s personal life.” It can happen anywhere: at a party, at an office, at a class reunion, where you meet a person who you barely know and haven't got much in common with and you immediately delve into revealing very personal and detailed stories, often without realizing.
The internet is also a place where people feel tempted to overshare. It has become a problem on social media sites, especially ones which encourage you to bare all, like Facebook and Twitter, which ask you questions before you post a status which can invoke oversharing, such as “What’s happening?” or “What’s on your mind?”

We Really Don't Care
According to Carolyn Cole, licensed marriage and family therapist, when people overshare, they are often desiring very much to connect with someone. It turns out that anxiety can be a big driver among people who tell all, as well as feeling lonely and needing to connect with others. What’s more, oversharing is most often an unconscious act. Cole explained that "many times people don’t realize it until after the fact.”
In some cases, however, oversharers become aware of their behavior midway through the conversation. If that happens, they suddenly feel vulnerable or even ashamed for revealing too much information. In other cases, people can be aware of revealing too much the entire time that they are oversharing, but they may not see it as problematic.

Dr. Gary Brown, a relationship therapist in Los Angeles, adds that a person who overshares does not have a good internal censor. “In these cases, they may not have an ability to ‘read’ their audience; typically, they do not have a good sense of boundaries.” Moreover, if someone comes from a family of “talkers” where oversharing is the norm, they may continue acting upon this behavior in their daily lives.
“Or," he continues, "a person may do it out of feeling generally inadequate or if they’re a narcissist—they need to share everything that comes to mind to make sure they’re heard.”

Step 1: ask a question. Step 2: don't give a f**k about the answer. Step 3: ceize the opportunity to talk about yourself.
Okay But Like, What’s Your Point?
Reminds me of an investigator on Forensic Files who goes on like „He told everybody about his new Mercedes. So what? Who cares? I also drive a Mercedes, but I don‘t tell people about it“. Yeah. Only some million viewers.

I wonder why he's always alone, and nobody wants to hang out at those places with him? .....It's a mystery
So you don't need acknowledgement by typing out a vast story about how you don't need acknowledgement. Sounds like someone needs some acknowledgement
Whenever someone starts off a lengthy comment "As someone" lmao
My eyes rolled right out of my head and out the door on this one.
When "Starry, Starry Night" was at auction, it could have sold for a billion dollars, if it weren't for the one bidder who asked, "But..did VanGogh go alone to places like cinema and ice rinks?" The auctioneer said no, so everybody walked out. If you want to make it in the fine arts, going alone to cinemas and ice rinks has got to be your artist's statement. All the greats did it.
Jealous? Can't stand when someone else gets a little praise & attention?
It may also be part of his job. I have no context here bit I follow a lot of artists on Instagram, it's what they do, promote themselves. I just do it as a hobby but I'm not looking for strangers to say nice job, I'm trying to improve so I like feedback. Same idea.
So... you have nothing worth posting? Your art must be really good if your the only one worthy of it.
So your art is great but you don't want anyone to see it? Hmmm... Sems legit.
"I don't need your confirmation." May be the same thing ...

Surprised I didn't make the list lol. I often talk about random s**t and am a huge over sharer. Sorry not sorry lol.
Literally people in every single FB group when you ask for an advice on something. They will share their religion views and things they had for breakfast or plan to do on Saturday night, not hitting enter before they despise you for your stupid question and stupid existence..... Yes, and not helping you at all.
Haha. The title of this post IS the comment section on bored panda...so accurate
as someone with asd i think a lot of people over share without even realizing, myself included, normally due to neurodivergencies that are becoming more and more common
