Re: Gwen R/Cris M
I don't understand the point of communication if one can't convey what they intend to convey. That's the whole reason people talk to each other, sir.
Yes? It's been my experience that people don't like hearing the truth a lot of the time, even if they tell you they want to hear the truth. Also, people don't like hearing opinions that aren't the opinions they hold themselves. People kind of think a lot of things are confrontational, and they get super defensive.
For example, I posed the following scenario to Jude. Person A asks Person B if Person B likes their shirt. Person B does not like Person A's shirt. Jude advocated a "white lie" about the shirt, because that would make Person A feel better. I don't understand why Person B can't just be honest and share their honest opinion about the shirt.
