Thereâs a 3rd scenario which is not having the ability to detect when you are expected to lie to be nice.
Comment on online my honesty makes people think i'm trolling, baiting, etc.đ
bizarroland@lemmy.world â¨4⊠â¨days⊠agoYeah, I mean, thereâs a way that you can tell the truth in a way that hurts somebody and a way that you can tell the truth in a way that doesnât hurt somebody.
Like if your girlfriend has a fat ass and she asks that if her dress makes her ass look fat then you can say âthe dress makes your fat ass look like the fat ass that it isâ or you can say âit complements your curvesâ
Neither one is a lie, but one is intentionally spiteful and hurtful, and the other one is like, okay, you obviously like the girl you donât care about how fat her ass is.

âThat dress does not make your ass look any different than it already is.â
Youâd think a non-commital blank statement like that should work. It does not. One then must explain themselves. Night out: ruint.
