How honest are you?

[KatonRyu 1,033]

I'm generally honest, and people think I'm a horrible liar, but if need be I'll lie to gain advantages.

[Skye 463]

White Lies tbh. I don't usually lie, but I don't like hurting people's feelings... I'm a very sensitive person, surprisingly (I don't really show it to people I don't really know too much though...)

[ChikaChan 7,323]

I sometimes lie about most troubling things  but if it is just minor problem,I probably tell the truth

[Lisa 5,553]

Loki.

 

I lie quite a bit. I could even be lying about lying a lot right now.

[Winterbass 763]

I don't lie about most things but on the internet I change a few things about myself so that my identity remains more hidden, nothing big or that makes anything I say any less true.

 

A few people once tried to image search and google search me so you can guess why I do it, luckily they weren't any of my irl friends so I don't need to be afraid of any consequences for that needless to say they're also not my friends anymore.

I will admit, I'm not exactly the most honest person.

[power strike 198]

kinda honest it depends on what the situation is but everything else i am honest.

[Kayjin 15]

I never really tell huge lies, I mostly white lie.

[Misty Rose 3,216]

I only lie to stay out of trouble sometimes and to not cause more conflict around here at home. But other than that pretty honest person

I hate lying, I was with a pathological liar for 6 years. I've only done it once all year and that was when one of my professors asked if I liked him when I didn't and I got scared.

[Tinkh_ 239]

A little tooo honest.

And at weird times.

[Poetic Stone 1,040]

I have to go with super honest on this on, and I can't stand lies.

[Jokuc 8,173]

I don't want to vote in the poll as the alternative I'm looking for isn't quite there.

 

First off I'd like to split up the question into two categories: How honest are you to other people? and How honest are you to yourself?

 

To myself.. I really don't know. I mean I rarely notice when I lie to myself hah

To others, usually very honest. The only time I lie is when the truth will have a negative impact. I'm not talking about shit like -"Is my dress pretty?"  -"UUUH YES OF COURSE DARLING IT'S GORGEOUS!" but more uh "serious/important" stuff. You know, stuff that could mess up friendships, relationships. Stuff that prevents the cops from knowing you actually did download those films or when your parents ask if you watch porn. lol

 

Haha what I'm trying to say is, I'm honest when honesty is needed.

[Ribbonfree 2,383]

I'm a compulsive liar, I'll lie when there's absolutely no reason for me to and I don't even notice I did it until after the fact. Not something I'm proud of, it's just a fact. Usually the lies I tell in this manner are harmless, just passing conversational stuff...

[Lilly14 8]

I'm only dishonest when I'm at the candy factory. Anyone who says they're honest there is lying. Trust me.

[Not Yellow Diamond 925]

I am insanely honest, I won't spare your feellings which is good and bad. If you want someone to lie to you for your esteem, confidence, or ego then I'm not your guy. On the contrast, if you need some tough loving then I'm most definitely your guy. In being honest, I'm always looking towards your best interest and solely that. 

 

If i'm giving you advice/help then that's exactly what it will be and it won't be sugarcoated. 

 

That and I'm a sucky liar so even if I tried then it wouldn't work

I'm pretty blunt when it comes to most things, sometimes I make things seem worse than they actually are, but sugarcoating is not eer something I do.

[Rainbow Diamonds 282]

I don't know where I fit. I'm definately not honest. I hate hurting others, and to be honest, you can't care about anyone's feelings. Unfortunately, I'm stupid and hate hurting others too much. I also lie for selfish reasons, like to get out of trouble or make myself seem better. I can't say I'm Loki, though. I actually hate lying. I am definitely not great at words.

I am more Loki than Loki is Loki ever since he was Loki. #lokrekt

[Applefolf 147]

I make an effort to be as honest as I possibly can be, honesty is the best policy after all. It just doesn't feel right lying, and after all the truth will be unearthed sooner or later - why not just be upfront about it? Now, I will not deny that I do make the occasional white lie to sugar coat the truth a little, but I really do make an effort to be as honest as possible. Even when in the short term it negatively affects me.

[Wax n' Wane 103]

 

Joking aside, I'll admit I do lie, but only when it is needed (ie. misinforming enemies/competition)

[aoEAF2FBvC0MIo2Q 3,673]

Does talking less count as being less honest?

[Lil Pip 775]

I can be blunt when it comes to certain topics, I am always honest in other topics, and about stuff thats nobody else's concern I can be dishonest about, especially if it avoids some misery. Usually about something that in ten minutes will be the truth anyways. ANything that matters I'm honest about though, but you gotta factor in biases, perceptions being different, logical fallacies, etc. SOme people think they tell the truth when its not true.

I'm often honest when I have to, and sometimes too straightfoward if something is so serious or if I have to give me entire opinion about something.

 

Lying is something I'm not fond of, especially if it hurts someone emotionally to lie directly at someone. An exception, from my experiences, is if it's to hide the truth for specific reasons.
