Why do I so often say the wrong thing? I don't mean to. But once it's out, I realize and it's too late.

Answer 1

you just have to think before you say something. not like overthinking and taking a long time, just take a second to realize, "maybe i shouldn't be saying this" or "this is the wrong time". i used to do that all the time, and i realized that all you have to do is think about what you're saying, don't just say what ever pops into your head. eventually it will become a habit and you won't even have to think about thinking about it ( :P )

Answer 2

Because you need to THINK and then speak. Not the other way around! Give it a try next time! And if you can't think of anything to say, then remember that it's probably all for the best!!!!

Answer 3

Then say 'I didn't mean that the way it came out' and say the 'right thing' and apologize for 'losing it' occasionally.
