How do I stop talking about personal matters at work? I over talk waaay to much but I work in a very small start up business with acquaintances (most I've done is smoke with em or give em rides home) but regardless I know I shouldn't and I've had this problem at other jobs too. Whether it's relationships friendships what I ate I just over share and I don't mean to it's all light hearted and I tend to joke around with it to but I just want to be more professional. It just sucks bc obviously I'm sick person I don't have any close friends just family and I don't get to talk to people much outside of work anyway but I want to know a way of being good with conversations without relying on personal matters.
