Do you tend to think about things rather than say things.

I tend to say some things without thinking about them... Sometimes i do, but that is hardly ever...

I do. I don't like regretting and taking back things I say.Sometimes, I even end up just not saying anything at all, especially if I know that what I'm about to say may hurt or offend somebody.

I am a thinker and I am always thinking before acting or verbally expressing my thoughts. But sometimes, I simply think outloud!

I tend to do both. If I am driven up about something I speak first and swallow food later. If I am in a calm mood I think first and then try to be tactful in what I say. It doesn't always work but for the most part I can say it works out well for me. Now if others would do the same that would be great.

While I am a person that tries my best to think about something before I say it, I must admit that most of the time I end up opening my big mouth first. Usually, it doesn't get me into trouble, and most of the time I don't hurt anyone's feelings. I make a constant effort.

I am the same type of person wherein I want to make sure I do not hurt anyone with what I say so I sometimes or most of the time over think things. Sometimes though I want to not be this way because even with the not so serious things i really tend to over think in such a way that it comes off with other people that I am so serious sometimes when I am not.

I tend to naturally be the sort of person who thinks of what they want to say before actually going ahead with it. I often over-analyze things, though, so I think this goes hand in hand. If I say something before thinking, it's most likely to come out amusing rather than potentially embarrassing or harmful, but I'm sure one of these days I'll say something I regret, heh.

Yes, I do try my best to think things through before I say something. I do this a lot with my husband. I will be about to say something cruel and spiteful to him, and then I stop myself from saying anything negative to him. I don't want to upset him or myself.. So, I just let it be. I don't want to end up regretting anything that I have said in the end.

minds of the people will take care to think or not to thnk what are you worrying for??

Many times yes, I have the tendency to just let what I think stay in there for fear of offending others. I think a lot about numerous things and if I say aloud everything I have in mind that would be non-stop talking. LOL

I am that type too as i dont wanna offend others that is why i think first before saying whats on my mind specially when i have to comment on something, I usually go on a nice and polite way when there is a need of criticism as that is how i want to be dealt with.

LOL...I wasn't always one who kept things to myself rather than blurting them out but over the years I have become more reserved. Now, my daughter, bless her heart, has the habit of just opening mouth, inserting foot. I keep telling her to "put your brain in gear before putting your mouth in motion". Someday I keep hoping it will sink in.

Most of the time I think and do but sometimes I do things without thinking and get regrets later. Sometimes I think to do but can't do that's pains me the most.

Yeah,me too!My brain is always faster than my mouth!lol Sometimes ,I dont know how to speak out , but i have a lot of ideas already!

I think about things before I say them. I've have spouted off at the mouth a few times and tasted my foot so I know its important to hold your tongue. If I say something that hurts another person I will quickly apologize because that hurt can root and they may not accept the apology later on.

I do try to think about what I am going to say before I say it. I'm not so great about it all the time but I do try. I have gotten alot better with age..lol.

This is very interesting and the world would be a better place if we all put some thought into what we were going to say before we said it. I met with a good friend of mine recently and, out of the blue, she made a personal remark that was so hurtful and so unexpected that I'm having a hard time with it, I don't even really want to see her right now because it was just so mean what she said and there was no reason for it. I'm usually a pretty direct person but I'm also tactful and would never say anything like that to her because I know it would hurt her feelings. I just let it pass because she is my friend but it has made me feel negative toward her now. I wouldn't have minded if it was something she had just blurted out without thinking, we all do that. But it was a really mean remark that I could tell was intended just to be mean because she was feeling upset at someone else that morning I think and took it out on me. Of course it's probably just karma because when I was younger I would just say whatever I thought without worrying too much about what I said, so it was probably just payback for something I did in the past. I never intentionally tried to hurt anyone's feelings but I didn't think as much in the past about what I was going to say before I said it so I probably did hurt someone's feelings now and again. So now I know, if that happened, how they felt, so now especially I try to think before I speak because why hurt someone's feelings if you can avoid doing so?

I tend to keep some thoughts for myself,especially when I think they might be hurtful.I am opinionated about things,but I don't always voice out my thoughts about people.I am very careful as to my thoughts about other people.this might hurt them and I can't take back what I said.

It so happens with me that i think a lot and often say less. But yes, i hate confrontations later; so i am very careful with what i say.

It depends on the circumstances. Most of the time I think before I say anything. But there are a few moments when one has to be spontaneous.
