Almost never, which is as much as I regret it.
-
Not often enough. I'm working on it.
-
i constantly put my foot in my mouth so to speak so i rarely think before i speak.
-
Not much. And when I'm intoxicated.. it's even worse. I regret some moments.

The older I get the more I understand the old saying, "the wise person thinks twice and speaks once."

It depends how close I am with the people I'm talking to. If I'm with family and close friends, I tend to speak my mind. If I'm with people I don't know very well or I'm not too close with, I tend to think before I speak. I already know what my family and close friends expect from me. And the people I don't really know that well or I'm not very close to... well, let's just say, I don't know when it's alright to speak with them and vice-versa.. so it's easier to say almost nothing. On the internet, however, my fingers kinda just flow... haha.

Depends on to whom I am speaking.
-
Not nearly as often as I should.
-
Not very often.
-
I used to be terrible about it. Now I think about 80% or so of the time I think or pause to think before I speak. It's a "work in progress."
-
I think about 5% of the time the rest of the times I'm trying to get my friends foot out of my ass. . .
-
Hardly ever, I'm constantly putting my foot in it. I sometimes think I only open my mouth to change feet.
-
99 percent.
-
All the time, sometimes too much. I knwo in college I wouldn't talk much because every time I had a point, I would recognze the counterpoint. It seems that everything I have to say, I know a good way to refute it so I end up saying nothing at all.
-
Almost always. I've been in trouble because of it before, but I think I'm better at it now then I used to.
-
Not as often as I should .. It has gotten me into some very ackward situations ...
-
Twice; and I didn't like what I said so never again.
-
ummm..errr... not often enough I suspect
-
I can't speak w/out thinking the two must come together.
-
I think before I speak in the situation that I don't feel comfortable. Like in class, in group that I get into for the first time. I'm afraid of the judgement from other when I say something bad or inproper.
