This week on Oversharing, Jordana and Dr. Naomi unpack why it can feel more upsetting when someone quietly backs out of a commitment than when they simply say no. A listener writes in after a friend offers to dog-sit, only to seemingly retract the offer without actually owning the change of heart. The hosts discuss the difference between setting boundaries and avoiding discomfort, why indirect communication can feel so invalidating, and how a little honesty can go a long way in preserving trust. Plus, they share advice for navigating disappointment when expectations don't match reality.
