I agree with what others have already said, sometimes you need to be more tactful than honest.



I am tactful when I am honest. I found if I lie; I get caught so I stopped lying. Yes, it pisses people off. If a man asks me if I need him; I will tell him that I don't need him. It may hurt him but I am being honest. Guess this is why I will always remain single because I am honest and refuse to lie to someone just to spare their feelings. I also have had men be honest with me when they say they think I am overweight or not pretty enough. I could get mad but what is the point? Sometimes the truth hurts and we can get all emotional over the response of just accept its someone's opinion of you and take it is stride. It is what it is and I respect any man that has the guts to be honest with me; however that is just me. Can't speak for the other ladies.

honesty is a must. the best way to not hurt feelings is to learn to word it, but still tell them. the truth always comes out in the end, so lying is not an option..... also, some things just do hurt. it's wisdom, and how we grow. you can't sugar coat everything. if you do, you don't learn and change and grow. especially in a relationship that you desire.....

No one is ever 100% honest all of the time and if someone says that they are, they're lying! Everyone lies! I mean you don't lie about the big stuff but we all pretend to be cooler, or smarter, or a bad boy, ect... from time to time. If a man isn't willing to cheat or lie a little to get a women then he don't want her bad enough.


You may get a women's attention this way, but I would be surprised if you keep it for long. shocked


Thanks for being honest enough for the warning though. :thumbsup:

if I need to cheat, steal and lie, even just a little bit to "get a girl", or get a job, or anything else, especially at another's expense, that is honest, and deserving of her, if I was looking, it would be the time to stop looking. I like being honest and getting what I want. then I know it's real.

no..... I'm not judging anyone. it's just my thing.

Honesty is being comfortable enough to be you with your lover.

Other than that....Honesty ain't that important.

Other than being true to your lover....everyone else is expecting too much to think they deserve the faith I give my woman.

Honesty isn't given out...it is earned.

Hmmmmm. Slightly wary of people whose honesty has got them into trouble. It always makes me feel they did something really dodgy. Other who are honest, fair enough. It's kinda downhill thinking everyone is lying on a dating site. I smell a rat soon enough :)

A quote I read somewhere once and has stuck with me......

The truth will hurt for a little while but a lie will hurt for a lifetime.

I have also heard that quote. And I believe in it whole heartedly. In my daily walk with Christ. I try my best to be honest. At times it has hurt feelings. But the people has gotten over it. And some has thanked me for being honest.

Being completely honest isn't solving a lot of things. It depends how you disclose the information, give some and hide some, or say things in a different way.
