doctor says it can be a good thing, and IQ related, but i think it's bs. does it happen more to gay people? or it is common among various sexualities? if anyone else is like this please speak up..
Over analyzing and a high IQ can be a sign of Asperger's but there are like 15 indicators for that. If you only have 2 out of 15 then you don't have AS.
You are listed as being bisexual not gay. Why would you think over analyzing things was a gay character trait? Did your doctor say it was? Is he homophobic? What an odd attribute to put on homosexuals.

You are correct it has nothing to do with a persons sexuality I've never been gay or thought about being gay and I often over analyze things. But Jovial you're a math genius, all you guys overanalyze stuff.

Over analyzing can sometimes get in the way of action resulting in a less then desired outcome but of course the same holds true for action without enough thought.
That is so true, and I am guilty in both instances.

What type of over analyzing are you asking about here?

Why does it matter what type?

lol NJQT - I don't know, but they're buggers for it! Don't they understand we like consistency in these matters. 3 kisses he loves, 2 kisses he loves me a bit less... it's just damn mean! haha
Fear of consequences unanticipated. Fear of making the wrong decision. Fear that you may have missed something that would be crucial...Fear that you may regret your decision.
The trouble is that hesitation is usually more likely to result in a bad outcome than making a less than ideal decision quickly.
And NOT acting is STILL choosing a course....
At some point analysis becomes second guessing... and that is reflective of a deep lack of self confidence.
Good points and something I've been dealing with in therapy. Very true.
