tempered with consideration

honesty is the best policy,,,,

..umm.ok.. yes darling your breasts are sagging to your knees and you are getting older.... but the good news is I'm spending my Christmas bonus on plastic surgery for you..
.. soooo...can we have sex now..

.. luck has nothing to do with this I get a really big Christmas bonus

Is someone being honest if they believe their own lies ? rhetorical darlings

That's your idea of tact?? You would be lucky to ever get sex again

No.. I think that's called being delusional...lol..

This not for you her above you..lol

Probably a good thing. I have a feeling you'll need it

Well if they don't find me charming..
I can always buy my way into their hearts. .lol... just what a woman wants to hear..lol

Yes I believe it is, if your honest in the beginning, you never know you may have honesty at the end.

I disagree with you. There are lots of sincere men out dere and I think one of dem wrote dis..

I had to seriously think about this one. Honesty is a weird thing.
We all are taught to be it, we all claim to be it, but that itself is a lie. It is not possible to always be honest, at least not in the way what we perceive that to be. Society demands you to lie even.
Think about telling your potential new employer that this is truly your dream job. Haven't we all been there? Often all we really want is A job, not that job. We simply need to pay the rent. Employers know that too, yet they still ask the question, expecting you to perform some stupid act of lying to them. And the best actor gets the job...

I think real honesty is based on what you feel inside, not what you do or say or see on the outside.

In Dutch 'honesty' is 'honourly', so 'honour' is involved. I think that's the core, honour and your conscience.

If your wife asks you "Does my bum look big in this", the man should feel/sense that she looks her best, and feels sexy and attractive, even though his eye sees she's not perfect. (Neither is he himself)
If all he feels is "Gawwd, you look like a hippopotamus." maybe he should be honest with himself and realize he doesn't love his wife anymore, do the honourable thing (= honest!) and end the relationship.

So if a guy says "Darling, you look beautiful!" is he lying? Not necessarily. If he feels, and based on that sees, how beautiful she feels and actually looks, including her bum and tum, he's not lying, is he?

And for the record, this goes for men as well...

Sometimes it's even the honourable / honest thing to do to NOT tell your partner that you've strayed. As long as you know it was a one time thing, which comes down to honour, respect and being honest with yourself.
So again, a feeling, an internal thing. Based on norms and values, honour and not wanting to hurt someone else.
What good is honesty if all it does is hurt someone else tremendously? Is that really honest? That would make it a very bad thing...

Wow!!.. can't get much more honest than that^^^

Relationship and dating is Enjoy For Live for meet anymore people in world

Hiya No1!
I think I should write a book! .. Oh wait!! I am writing a book! But on a slightly different subject

We're both good with words, we should've published our rototilling story! Would've done better than 50 Shades Dammit, we could've been millionaires!!

Another way to talk about this, is that a person needs to LIVE honestly/honorably.

Too often, people confuse "honesty" with making factual statements in the moment. The most egregious lying scum, manipulative swine on the planet, make strategic, factually accurate statements all the time. That's what makes their life of lies successful.

By the way, my apologies to the swine(Sus scrofa) of the world, for using their label to refer to these horrible humans.
