Is there a difference in overthinking, over thinking and over-thinking?

Asked by Lovefirst (116points) March 3rd, 2014 from iPhone

Hey,

Is there a difference in the meaning of the three ? Or is it the same meaning and only one way to write it. I only saw overthinking on the internet.

Thank you!

I think the right words are overthinking and over-thinking. Over thinking is not right at all. There are no differences between overthinking and over-thinking.

Mimishu is right. “over thinking” is 2 words. I prefer sleep over thinking.

You might be over-thinking this. I have abandoned that. I am SO over thinking.

Dictionary.com does not recognize overthinking as a word. Ineterstingly enough, when you look up overthink, overthinking shows up as a form of the word.
