Do you speak the truth, even if it hurts someone’s feelings?

I do. Not trying to sound very mean, but sometimes you have to be brutally honest and hurt someone’s feelings to help them and and get them to realize how stupid and lazy they’re acting, or how for example drugs than destroy their life. If you ask me for the truth, that’s what you’re going to get! Don’t get angry when you asked for it! I don’t care about your feelings! Speaking the truth is more kinder than lying to make you happy. You have to be “mean” sometimes to help someone. I mean of course you have to you tact but sometimes there’s no nice way to say and we need more people to tell it like it is.

I’m honest, but tactful in my delivery and try to do so from a place of empathy/awareness of where they are at. I’m also mindful that my perception of things is likely not the all encompassing truth of it. It’s only an observation from my perspective.

No, only when necessary.
Glad you feel that way because I responded to your immature, foul mouthed comment and I spoke the truth but you are a phony and will be furious when you read it because you are SO damn immature.Autism or not....you're a baby

{@juleskittykat] i more or less agree you can be honest with people if you use tact and do not use the sledgehammer mthod to crack a nut

I always tell the truth!

Except when I lie.

Which is a lot.

And that’s the truth 😋

Depends on the person and the situation involved.

It rather depends on the circumstance.

Yes, in all truth, you are some form of lizard person.

You can be honest without being a jerk

@iamonfire696 being honest doesn’t mean you’re a jerk. Look sometimes you have to hurt someone’s feelings to save them. The kindest people give the harshest points. We’re the “meanest” because we fucking care.
