Don’t always protect people from your truth. It won’t make things right
One of the day-to-day reasons that relationships between human beings become so screwed up has to do with this well-intentioned deception. We protect those we interact with from the negative aspects of our feelings about them, because we want to be nice and foster goodwill. And we do it so fricking often, without even thinking twice about it! (“oh, it’s nothing”)
The problem is, it’s dishonest. It’s not authentic, and it misleads people who interact with you about how you really are.
