As a yuri fiend, I say just go all in on the monster girl harem
The TN's notes reminds me of a psyche/substance rehab clinic I went to
They'd group clients by problem (substance abusers with addicts, eating disorders with like, etc), ask the clients to discuss their problems in group sessions, punish those who outright named their issues, all while trying to float the idea that the clients were holding themselves back whenever they glossed over/lied about their own feelings to avoid making the rest of the group awkward/uncomfortable. Only the most autistic would actually admit to having trouble, the rest would just bitch about trying to quit smoking, gossip about who was boning who, or share work stories.
A lot like what I imagine revisiting highschool would be like.

It seems like a good translation to me. You are expressing a culturally specific concept in another language, so leaving it untranslated wouldn't explain anything.
"You shared too much given we aren't close enough" gets the point across well. When something is inappropriate or appropriate is the part that's culturally specific, while "there is an appropriate and inappropriate time to say certain things" is not. I don't know if every culture has the same concept of public and private personas. For example, do hunter gatherers who live in small groups, where everyone knows each other, have that concept? But they will still speak differently to outsiders regardless.
East Asian cultures often have the concept of social harmony being something you work together to maintain. Usually it's enough to think of them as being more responsible and community minded on average, unless we're getting some type of period piece about Confucian nobles. I have to admit to being confused by Apothecary Diaries at various points.
This is funny to me. I am autistic and was always annoyed about this type of thing. I am cautious about what I share for self preservation reasons, but if I ask someone how they're doing then I want them to be able to tell me if the answer is badly. I think people pick up on this because I have had strangers start describing their medical issues or drug history in detail in situations that feel like a low social risk to them, like very long greyhound bus trips where we will never see each other again.
Children also seem to like me, which may partly be due to a similar reason. A lot of people don't really let young kids talk about how they're feeling or what their interests are. I don't act like a stereotypical "good with kids" person who is high energy and entertaining. I talk to them more like how I talk with an adult, which I think is considered pathological.

+1 for Dynasty Scans. It's a great website.
