I get really stupid little things stuck in my head and they end up worrying me for ages. E.g. something I hear about a persons past can really bother me to the point where I can't talk to them without thinking about it. Is there something wrong with me? What can I do about this? I'm pretty normal usually - just for some reason I dwell on really stupid things and end up making a big deal about it.
Actually, you're not being all paranoid and 'omg'y. This shows that you care about person x or y. Nothing's wrong with you. You're just super-nice, face it. Maybe you wanna talk about it with that person and try to help him/her out?...

if someone cheated on a boyfriend or girlfriend..that's something you should think about because it's likely that they will do it again.
if a friend got in a fight with another friend..that's something you can forget about. if it was over telling a secret..maybe you should be careful what you tell that person until they prove themselves trustworthy..but don't hold a grudge against them.
i'm not really sure what you mean..but i tried my best. it's okay to pay attention to things you hear..but remember it might not all be true. you can always talk to the person about it. just don't hold it against them until you know you know the truth.

If a person lied to somebody, chances are that they will again. I don't know exactly what you think is stupid that you dwell on? not trusting people because you know something that they have done before? I do that too! I think it's a good thing, keeps you from getting into shit that they have gotten themselves into. If it is a big deal to you and not others, fuck them, that's the way you were wired, you can't change that, I don't think you have anything to worry about sweetie!
