I do.
I've always prefered an unpleasant truth to a pleasant lie.
Sometimes others see things about us that we don't see,
so I always ask myself "is this so? what's the evidence? If so, is it something I need to change. If so, how?
If it's not true, I can either explain how and why.
Or I can just accept that that's how they view me and not worry about it.
As for family, I no longer have any - have outlived my parents & had no kids.
