How do I stop thinking about a comment I made earlier today?

I’ve tagged this as emotional regulation because I’m so wrapped up in what I thought at the time was just part of a conversation, but now I can’t stop thinking about it.

I was chatting with another member of a co-working space that I work from and she mentioned getting some photos done by a photographer in town. I know this person’s work and said that I think they sometimes over edit their photos.

I could have said a million other things that I like about their work (because I genuinely do) or I could have said nothing. Instead I chose a negative comment. The person I was talking to seemed a little taken aback by my comment. I keep replaying it in my head and feel like such an asshole about it.

I’m also a creative and would absolutely die if I heard some random say something like that. I told my partner about it and he doesn’t think it’s that big of a deal but I can’t stop dwelling and catastrophizing it that people think I’m an asshole and that it will get back to this other person.

I know I can’t take it back. Are there any tips for moving on from this so it doesn’t eat me alive.

EDIT: thank you everyone for your thoughts and kind words. I’m going to try to get some sleep now and will check comments in the morning.

EDIT: thanks again everyone for your perspectives and encouragement. There are some wonderful tips and ideas in the comments that I’m going to try.
