RE: I spent a week being brutally honest. Here's what I learned:

in #introduceyourself2 months ago (edited)

I actually laughed when I saw the first thing about how people don’t like honesty because I was having a conversation with my friend and he asked me something and I told him the truth and he went ahead to ask that did I really have?
Now this question moves to how comfortable lies are harmless… I mean what I said was true but then he got hurt and affected so if I told him a little lie because he already knew the truth, it would have gone a long way.

As a straightforward person, this is like a message to me because it kind of confirms a lot of things for me…just like how you tell your wife “good morning beautiful” no matter how she’s looking every morning, I don’t think if I had a partner, I would be expecting him to be brutally honest after seeing me wake up with my drooling face. That could even affect my day.So it’s just better to tone my “truthfulness down” if that lie I will tell won’t hurt anyone.

Anyway, you're welcome to hive Shatteredsilence, I hope you enjoy your journey on this amazing platform. All the best.
