so what happens when the things we are suppose to "read b/w the lines" never gets read, or gets read correctly as intended? is there a difference b/w embellishing the truth and hiding the truth? i have, on several occasions, been accused of being too blunt. people who embellished it in a positive way would say "straight forward", people who tried to hide it would say "honest". others who meant "less" than well would say "blunt, inconsiderate, rude" or my personal favorite, "cruel".
I suppose the truth does hurt...so why are we acting so surprised if the words we are hearing felt like a dart through the heart?? maybe our tolerance for the truth has been lowered to the point of voluntary denial. god forbid if one of us should point out the elephant in the room! oh no! we have to talk around it, describe the elephant, and assume the rest of us would comprehend that description as an elephant, not a giraffe, or a dog, or whatever else that's not even remotely close to an elephant. And boy, do we get mad when the truth is bluntly pointed out. on paper, i'd say why gets mad at the truth? it's like being mad at the air for having only 21% oxygen instead of like 90%. it is what it is... in reality, my first reaction is always defensive, my first response is always to throw intentionally hurtful comebacks at your face. sometimes, i hate to say it, it just feels damn good to make the other person cry like a little girl.
My sympathy for the cry baby when arguing increases with the length of the argument as well as the cruelty of the comebacks. I mean come on, it is definitely considered a cheap shot if you get teary eyed the moment i raise my voice. making me look like the bad person doesn't make me less right. it especially doesn't make me want to stop making you cry, since it's so obvious that the crying has been used as a weapon. crying is for pussies, manipulative pussies. and if you are so certain i am in the wrong, why the heck are you crying??
