Aug 14, 2017 at 21:48 | comment | added | English Student | Please note @Anne Daunted that I have linked your profile page in my answer to this meta question, as the best example of a member already using placeholder names to protect the privacy of real people. | |
Aug 14, 2017 at 6:36 | comment | added | Anne Daunted GoFundMonica | @Bradley Wilson Thanks, they are indeed related, but my question is not so much how to convey that they are giving too much information (this may, however, be part of a good answer), but rather more general how to react to it. In the example in your linked question, the OP was even pressed to take a side in a dispute etc. That's why I also included that it may be mentioned in passing only. | |

Aug 14, 2017 at 6:01 | comment | added | Anne Daunted GoFundMonica | @Catija No, it was not about interpersonal skills or something related, rather technical. And the information was shared, when Eve strayed a bit away from the topic, broader explaining her approach to / outlook on life. My goal is to deal with it politely and make the other person not feel uncomfortable or anything. | |

Aug 13, 2017 at 19:23 | comment | added | Catija | Is there something about this training program that might encourage someone to be forthright about this sort of thing? Also, how to react depends on what you want to do. If you're interested in hearing her out despite not knowing her, that's different than asking her not to share these things with you any more. | |
Aug 13, 2017 at 18:26 | comment | added | user3169 | Maybe that person just needed someone to talk to. Sometimes listening alone is enough. But you left us hanging. What happened after she told you that? | |
