I was taught that honesty was the best policy from a very young age...

However, I find there are very few people anymore that actually want honesty, that can actually deal with a person who can be 110% honest with them.

Most people seem to think that no one can be 100% honest with anybody, so they can't believe my honesty.

haha i know how that is, most people dont believe in honesty because look at what people deal with, everyone lies, all the way up to the president, no one can be trusted anymore, so when there is an honest person, they are percieved to be an asshole, Like me! and probably you once or twice in your life

I hope to have some time on my hands to do a study on this site. Out of all the sites this seems to be a nice laid out site and welcoming. Visually that is.

I've been reading some of the requirments via headlines and wants so I can't wait to get some time to see what happens.

Honesty remember is only relative to the concept within a persons own mind.

One thing I have found so far is the Trust factor.

What's up with TRUST>?

And for that matter HONESTY>?

Seeing I've been out of the loop for a while fill me in on these two issues.

It's rather a sad case in my eyes that we have all become in need of that other person but don't fence me in attitude when we have I'm looking for my prince charming. I don't get it at all.

Prince Charming is a sign that we are in fantasy land, me I'm just looking for a lady who can dedicate herself to some daily conversation. Way to much to ask for TRUST me on that one!

Hi well from a females side.. I have found it hard to find honesty in this day and age myself or that my honesty scares some people.. I am gonna keep being my honest self though .. Melissa

Don't scare me, couple females was talking to on here and was about to go on first dates (didn't get that far) were honest about some of their past and didn't phase me one bit. too me its something that happened and its just a part of life.
I'd rather have honesty myself, was cheated on and one said had personal issues and found out later met another person!

Honesty is I think something to strive for but there are times when complete and unvarnished honesty might not be the right thing to do.

Sometimes couching an honest answer is required to spare someone needless hurt. There are ways to be honest and communicate your feelings without hurting others and I often opt for those sorts of answers when pressed for an answer I think may hurt someone else.

I just lost a possible friend over being TOO honest (if you want to know what I said, I added it to my profile)... and I believe that I may end up deactivating my profile to save me more grief...

I hear a lot of people saying, "I just wanted "them" to be honest with me". I don't think people want to be deceived. But I doubt they'd appreciate the brutal honesty they claim they deserve. And then there are the people who are brutally honest with no concern about the feelings of others. I think it's up to your own personal discretion. However, I do believe in "tact" at all times when being "honest".

Don't activate your profile over that! IF your friend left due to that he/she wasn't your true friend!!

I give up.

I have officially resigned myself to living alone for a good portion of my life... I have not had a large number of relationships, but I have learned from the relationships that I have had that I have to build a relationship from the ground up, and not look for that "quick score" to start off... and since very few women want to look beyond the past to see the person I am now, I would rather be alone than to have to prove myself to another person.

I will probably never find anyone that I can truly be myself with, but that doesn't mean I am closing my mind to the possibility.

Don't give up, Shes out there somewhere!
It's cool keeping mind open since never know when or where paths will cross. I've had a few gf's myself and each one has what I'm looking for and some that turns me off though I dont let that bother me. Though some things will not turn other cheek for (drugs, booze abuse to name a couple)
