[quote=Anonymous]I'm a woman and I think it's weird. It sounds like they had a dynamic where they shared this stuff with each other before you got there, and they've continued it since you arrived without wondering if you are okay with it. They sound really self-involved and kind of oblivious. I would feel overwhelmed if someone at work shared all that stuff with me because a lot of it is kind of heavy. I mean, if I knew someone for years and we had a progressively closer friendship and built up to it, I wouldn't find it overwhelming. But if I worked with someone for a few months and then they were telling me all about their divorce and their endometriosis, I'd be like "whoa, this is too much." But then what do you say? At this point they'll probably be offended if you say anything, plus now they've shared a bunch and if you try to roll it back they might feel exposed for having giving you so much info already.[/quote]
