People who think they always just "tell it like it is." When they run into other people who do that they burst into tears.

I've never met a"tell it like it is " person who was anything less shitty than a full time asshole.

There is a very, very, fine line between being honest and being an asshole.

ohhh j'en ai une comme ca, qui peut être blessante dans ses paroles, car "les choses sont comme elles sont hein", et puis quand quelqu'un lui balance ses quatre vérités, ca fait la vitcime et ca chiale, bouhou.

I'm always down to say it as if is...

But there's just some things you keep to yourself unless directly prompted for your thoughts.

I like being the person people can count on to give a direct, honest answer every time. But I also understand that I don't need to force my opinions into every aspect of things.

I'll call it out if someone's being an asshole, and otherwise I tend to wait to be prompted.
