People don’t want the truth. They want others to tell them what they want to hear, to validate what they think and feel. People need their egos stroked, they need to hear how right or important they are

What always trumps honesty is courtesy
I don't think tactful people who give an honest answer when asked are disliked. It's usually those who give an unsolicited opinion without being asked or are generally harsh with no regard to the feelings of others.
Also, when a person doesn't talk to you when you tell them truth they find hard to accept it doesn't necessarily mean they dislike you. They might just need time to process it.

I think most of the people today younger people don’t have thick skin. They take everything so personal it’s just what I think.

Because sometimes the truth sucks and having to face it is harder than a sugar coated lie.

People are stupid and think their friends must tell them what they want to hear

@BeefySenpie Right? Those people don’t give a shit. Not true friends. True friends tell them what they NEED to hear, even if the truth is painful.

Sometimes they do

@Matt85 if those people do than that’s a good thing. We need more straightforward people to call it as it is

@ElizabethBabe1994 Different cultures will provide different results. Find one you like. :)
