Would you like that way or you would prefer to know everything happening that concerns you. Im a sensitive, easy to get hurt person but I still prefer to have an idea of whats going on than to believe that everything are just fine even it really isnt. I rather be hurt with reality rather live my whole life in falsehood.

I always prefer to know what is happening around me, no matter how terible it is. I can see then in what ways I can help or how I can act. Life has a lot of pain, but when I learn how to manage it, it is better.

Same here..Life has no worth if it was just lived on pretensions and illusions.

You are so right. I want to know the truth and nothing but the truth. I can handle it. I don't like being lied to when its something that is important in my life. Especially a relationship. Tell me the truth no matter how hard the truth will hurt me, I know I can handle it better then if I find out you were lying to me. I love living my life in truth.

I absolutely require truthfulness and transparency in any relationship. May it be a GF/Bf thing,marital relationship or friendship. Yeah its better you hurt me now than make me believe on fantasy that I will later knew it was actually a nightmare of deceit and lies.

sometimes some matters need to wait before they will be told. It doesn't mean that they are hiding something from you.. It is just that they are waiting for the right moment and the right time. this is my opinion to this discussion. What you don't know won't hurt you. true for the people loved you so much will not put you into a situation that will hurt you.

I understand that. There are appropriate time for everything, there are really matters that are should not be unfold untimely, yet for some other reason there would be people who would make it a habit to lie because they thought if you dont know it they are not actually hurting you and theye are not doing you wrong, so they will just do it again and again and as long as they can hide it from you they are safe from guilt.

Reallity is quite hurtfull and hard to assimilate sometimes but... not telling things as they trully are hurt us more and amke us even more worried. Some people hate to take reality as the truth and found theirselves in the middle of a bunch of illusions... Maybe to ease and to be more sencive when we tell the truth we can try not to make it long and confusing and say it in the most positive way possible, so it´s not so hard to accept ?

Yes truth are sometimes hard to accept but isnt it better if we know what is ahead of us than just caught unaware.?

I think there are times i would rather know whats going on. It hurts more sometimes finding out down the line.

Its always better to have awareness on things happening around us than be caught unprepared and feel disappointed and betrayed.
