Hi, Ghina :] Whenever I want to express myself to people I love, I say too much-- like, an overwhelming amount of too much. The last time I attempted to write a letter I didn't realize that I wrote a whole 5pages of it, and I wasn't even done yet haha. I'm just wondering, what do you think or what do you do to shorten your feelings in like one paragraph or just a few sentences that fully conveys how you feel?

I just have this intense fear that although they may say it's okay, I fear that I write/take too long to express myself.

honestly, i’m not quite sure how to shorten my feelings in my writing because i’m also a sucker for details. i believe that saying too much is okay—what you might think is "too much" could actually be something others need to hear. when i do try to shorten my thoughts, i usually just cut out parts that i don’t think people would pay much attention to. i hope that answers your question!
