But for a proper answer you would need to be more specific!
But yeah, can't say without specifics...
Can't be specific, cos it was more a general wondering, not really a special case...
I think it does too btw...
I think it does exactly what it says on the tin, it can heal situations and it can harm them so you have to know when to apply brutal honesty and when to sugarcoat. Or something like that.
I try to be honest to everyone.
I wouldnt hesitate in lying to stop someone getting hurt, not to cover my own back but maybe to cover other peoples backs if it doesnt matter it i lie, for example i was out with a group of friends before and was getting chatted up, wasnt single at the time so told him when he asked, i mentioned my single friend and he called her a minger then walked away. When she asked, of course i didnt tell her he called her a minger.
Always say what they want to hear. Ignorance is bliss.... :yes:
But that means these days she tells me she's had another 'oops, me and him did it again!'. I mean come on, theres flirting, but then theres rubbing another guys dick :yeees:. Sorry. I'm peed off. Contemplating some revenge though :chin: or perhaps not. Who knows!
:crazyeyes are you serious?
there are some certain occasions that i think honesty could probably cause more bad than good, and it turns out that honesty is usually the best way, but i fuck it up everytime.
I agree, sometimes being honest can also bring troubles or hurts the other feelings, but it is however really important as it is necessary, I think, to build a long lasting trust between people...
i agree with what you are saying. i think honesty is a good foundation to build from. but i think there is a difference between honesty and telling lies. if i was ever asked a question outright i'd always answer truthfully.
However, a few white lies here and there would never go a miss. An ex of mine said he preferred blondes to brunettes. It was my own fault as I asked but he was far too honest for my liking! It proper put me down as I was a brunette. I couldn't help but let it bother me. Theres being honest and then theres being honest!!! Lol.
Exactly, and my house mate is the most brutally honest person i know, and although i respect her for it, she could be a bit nicer about it. Like if you asked her do i look okay in this, if she didnt think so she be like no you look like shite kinda thing, instead of well whats else could you wear.
But in relationships there should always be honesty.
