yeah, the truth may hurts but it shows that they care enough to be truthful to point it out so that i can evaluate myself and try to change. it took my bf to do that to me...hurt..but good in a way...it made me a better person.!

You are right. The truth may hurt, but how else can we know what needs to be improved?

In the dark - cat in the dark
No, absolutly not. While truth is often the most humorous..it is also often the most painful. I'll stick with being in the dark! Like a cat in shadows!

......the honest truth - truth bleeds
yes i wud. being a human we all have a tendency to hear good things about us. truth is somtimes bitter, but i think i have the couraqge to hear it from my friends, if not from anyone and evryone. but who will decide on the ultimate truth!!! we can be judgmental and pass comments which may be right or the ultimate truth.

yes i would because being honest in a friendship is what is important at least they are telling you the truth even if it bothers you at least you know your friends are honest so that also makes them trustworthy

yes, if my best friends want to give their honest opinion i would be ready to listen. but i always remember that it is their opinion at the end, so i would not let it hurt me in any way. if i feel there is some genuine advise by them i would like to make changes about myself.but also if i dont agree with what they feel i will tell them that

No I don't think I would want them to tell me the stuff that they liked least about me lol...my confidence would go way down and I'd worry about it.

No, only if it would be beneficial to my self-esteem and my future (in the work force), and only if someone told me in such a way that my feelings wouldn't be devastated.
