Well in this case your intuition tells you it is more helpful not to. You can trust it, seek to put into words why or reject it altogether. So it is not about overthinking but what your intuition tells you.
I like this scenario because one may come across the fact that the desire to feed is in itself self-serving and comes from the fact self cannot watch itself starve in another.
