Honesty...

In any relationship that I have with someone, whether it's friendship, lovers, etc., I expect a certain level of honesty from that person, because I'm going to be completely honest with them... I don't have the time nor the patience to keep up with a lie...or to keep one going... Don't get me wrong, I have lived a lie, but I won't tell a lie... I'd rather just tell the truth and spare your feelings later... In my eyes, it's just easier that way... Lies leave room for error and more questions...

Example... If I felt my partner slept with someone else and I ask... If they say no, that's their truth... I can doubt and question it, but I would believe them, hoping that they're telling the truth (alliteration...lol). But if we're having an argument and they say "that's why I slept with ______!" that sets off an alert in my head bc I remember when I asked they told me no... So my thoughts would be... Are you saying this to make me mad or to hurt me because you're mad? Or is this the truth and you actually lied the first time? So...I don't know what to believe and then there goes the trust. Right out the fucking window...

I say all this to make a point... Whatever level of relationship I have with you, just be honest with me...even if it hurts... I can't be mad at the truth, and I'll get over it. Don't make it worse by hiding and keeping secrets, because when I'm gone... I'm gone. I don't befriend people I can't trust, nor people I know who don't have my best interest at heart or who aren't really concerned with my well-being... The ones who are just around because they want to see the changes or treat me like I'm some experiment... How about experiment these nuts??? Lol...

I don't like having second thoughts, "in the back of my mind" thoughts, or anything like that... I think about enough shit on a daily basis without all the extras... So, with me, honesty really is the best policy...

peace.
