of person that tells someone what they want to hear or exactly how you feel? the situation is out of the question...just a honest answer will do....kind of oxymoronish ...eh?

i don't sugarcoat.

so i don't tell people what they want to hear. i tell them the truth, fact, or my opinion as to how i see it.

its taken me years to learn to control doing this. LOL so i dont say it all the time.

like i said i dont sugarcoat. if i feel my comments might be too harsh, i just keep my mouth shut.

I always say exactly how I feel but if I know they might not like it I try to say it in the most diplomatic way possible. Even if it's something that needs to be said, I don't think slapping someone across the face with it is the most effective method.

I tell the truth, but use tact in doing it. I've seen others lose friends due to being blunt and honest. You still need to be honest, but you need to remember they have feelings.

Well when I don't have anything nice to say my silence can speak volumes. But no I'm not one to mince words I am who I am.

you and elwood have made a good point...say what you gotta say but not to the extreme...although some need it...i've lost "friends" cause of my honest opinion,but like i say if you don't want the truth then don't ask me:smile:

I'm honest. There is a way to say things, and there is a time and place to do so. The way you handle things in life are the actions that count.

I'm always honest. If what they want to hear isn't how I feel, I tell them.

I'm a hard b***h, because I don't pull punches. Lost friends that way, which sucked, but in the end, was probably worth it.

If it involves sharing my feelings and I feel vulnerable I will hold back but other than that I always tell the truth. It makes me easier to live with.
