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" 😂 😂 😂

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.
