I know I'm "interfering" when I pay close attention to what sort of reaction I'm getting. Typically, people don't react negatively to non-intrusive behaviors in my experience.
Personally, I know I can be meddlesome at times when I care about someone - it isn't done out of malice, but rather a genuine concern for someone's best interest (because
naturally, I, who can barely run my own life, knows precisely what someone else needs, lmao). But you know what I mean....
I'm sure I can't be the only one.
The most important part is that I
mostly recognize my tendency to do this - which I did not always - and I do try to reign it in. A lot. And it has substantially improved my interpersonal relationships.

Question
How do you know when you are interfering in someone's life?
