I Appreciate Honesty

I certainly do appreciate it. It's a big deal for me if someone is genuine and honest or not. I don't care if the truth will hurt me or is bad I'd much rather hear the truth and for people to be honest than be dishonest and tell me only what I want to hear or lie for their own benefit.

Ok. I find it BS that people can't handle the truth. I've spent my life endeavouring to always tell the truth and it's worked well, people can handle it and I feel great.

At school: Teacher "where's your homework" me "I didn't do it" teacher "oh, um, ok, well bring it tomorrow"

In relationships me "I had sex with someone else" Bf "oh ok, thanks for telling me" / "wtf are you rubbing that in my face for" / "I'm going to kill you if you do it again" 馃槀 馃槀 馃槀

Still think I'm right to tell the truth about cheating. There's never been any lies on my part in relationships and I feel pretty good about that.

To some dodgy people I know about an authority figure I know: me "I have to tell you something. I accidentally told authority figure that you sold me the dodgy thing. He tricked me. He was chatting away and dropped it in the conversation and when I hung up the phone I thought you f'in b. Anyway it's probably best you don't xyz for a while because he's crazy" dodgy people "ok, don't worry about it. Thanks for coming and telling us"

So I find it completely BS that people can't handle the truth.

It's actually that people are too pussy to tell the truth.

@Paliglass very well said! Some people just don't want to be honest because if they are it's going to be bad for them and they can't handle that!

@SW-User yes. Also they don't appreciate the adrenaline rush of telling the truth or that you don't have to remember all your lies or that the other person actually deserves to know the truth regardless.
SW-User
Once exposed for a liar, it's almost impossible to trust that person again. Honesty is honestly the best policy.
SW-User
@SW-User I totally agree!

Easy to say, hard to follow. Truth is caustic and it burns, cuts and hurts both ways.

Everyone appreciates honesty, but few can handle and fewer deserve it..

@vss1234 I know it's not so simplistic but I'd just prefer the truth even if it does hurt than go on believing something and then later find out it was bullshit haha.

@SW-User makes sense, but you will then never enjoy a relation 馃槓

I doubt. usually people can't handle honesty and truth. I know because I always say it in people's faces.
SW-User
@unknownpoetx well I do prefer the truth over a lie that's only said to make me feel better.

@SW-User the truth might hurt initially, but it is the best in the long run.
Paliglass41-45, F
Me too. I'd rather a hurtful truth than a pleasant lie.
SW-User
@Paliglass Yes exactly!

I have been hurt by a liar, sounds like you have too. The truth is always the best

People say one thing, do another.
