If find we may have been conditioned to tell everything. I ran my life that way for a long time - giving people the utmost in detail to appear intelligent and to be super thorough (which I now know is a little psychotic part of my personality). There is no need to provide all the information all of the time when discussing anything in life. If I find pressured to do so, I might say to the person I am having a conversation with, "Why do you ask"? I feel in general people are way too nosy, and maybe that makes you feel pressured to be so detailed. Just hang back a little bit - try it, and see if it works for you. Good luck.
