Of honesty and confessions.

People ask me the thing I value most in someone?
Or the thing I value most in general?
I value Honesty. As the title goes.

I've lost a lot of people to honesty.
And I don't regret it. There are weak moments when I just wonder would I have been better off letting the truth slide Or sugar coating the things I said?
And NO comes the answer. No I wouldn't be better off. If you want to surround yourself with people who have traits you desire, you have to dump those who don't.

I'd been living under a rock as you'd call it for a very major though not very long period in my life. And now that I realise, its my intrusion of privacy of some certain people that helped me move on.
And I don't regret that one bit too.
Call it a confession or whatever, but this doesn't weigh me down.
I'm a very strong person. I CAN TAKE WHAT YOU GOT.
People who often disguise the whole lying and hiding thing with the 'I didn't think you'd take it well and other excuses or i wasn't ready to tell you just yet' PISS ME OFF.

I've had my fair share of bitter truths and your truth JUST can't be bitter than the 85% cocoa I got in my freezer.

Also, I don't get people who think there's like a whole lot of difference in lying and hiding the truth.
NO THERE ISN'T. Whether you're overspeeding or you're taking a wrong turn, YOU'RE STILL COMMITTING A TRAFFIC CRIME. and thats just about the same thing to me.

SO get it. there is no grey. ONLY black and white.
Also, I realise I've said a lot of nasty things to people. My parents. Strangers. and things that can make people cry for the rest of their lives.
But I'm honest. I don't keep things inside. Bottling up is not something I get. I really don't.
It ruins me and claws at me from the inside. Just how you can't keep a 15th drink down, I can't keep my feelings down.
So you're better off without my silent treatment or the taunts if I just get over with it once and for all.
My love for growing distant increases in circumstances that don't allow for the truth to pass freely.

Also, this other kind of people I don't like, who every once in a blue moon will be so nasty to you, and then just say they didn't mean it. and it was a joke.
The facade isn't something I appreciate.
Either be sweet or KEEP UP THE NASTINESS.

Also, nastiness is not synonymous with the truth. Sometimes i just feel the world would be a better place if the only emotion we felt was bluntness. And everyone would just be blunt and say whats on their mind.
All these social networking sites with 'whats on your mind' help. People really do say whats on their mind. Because, anonymity.

Which brings me to the fact that Confession pages are growing just as quickly as third world nations are birthing babies.
LIKE REALLY, WHY HIDE BEHIND A STUPID CURTAIN OF ANONYMITY.

The gay people had a problem coming out, but for you it should really just be a cakewalk.

And which brings me to the other point that just popped in my head. THIS always happens when I'm typing furiously and trying to end the post, I don't get people WAITING YEARS to come out with their feelings for some xyz person. Really now?
If i'm attracted to some, even before my mind can grasp the unusualness, my mouth always wins the race.
Do i make sense? No?

Dear Diary,
I'd like a man who can just take me and all of my honesty. Because my honesty is who I am. I am an empty room with no furniture without my honesty. And someone who's honest RIGHTBACKATME!
Thanks.
