like the first person, i like helping people feel better about themselves. i dont lie to them but i guess I'm a glass half full more than a glass half empty type of person. um i guess i can be blunt and to the point, but sometimes im shy and polite. but if my friend were to ask how a completely ridiculous outfit looked on her, i would say just that. that the outfit was a bit out there. i would not however say that she looked completely ridiculous. i think there is a science and a balance there. you dont need to hold back from speaking your feelings but there is always a good and not so good way to be heard. i hope what i said makes sense and applies to your question. if i had to give a yes or no answer id say yes (because i dont not tell people what they want to hear. i tell them while at the same time, conscious of my words)

With reference to The book
"how to win friends and influence people" by Dale carnegie
Its a admirable book
But once you follow it completely or partially, people around you tend to make a judgement about you being Phoney deep inside.
Most of them may not admit!
Yes! that book tells you "When you go for fishing take worms with you because fishes like them Not Sushi because you like them"
Listen to people and tell what they want to hear.
You will have a incessant fan following.
But Trust me there would be a corner inside you that will keep waiting to say what you wanna say not what they wanna hear.
That corner will suffocate all your life, your Individuality will be corrupt.
And mind you it won't be a happy feeling inside, Superficially you'll look happiest!
Hope it helps!
Cheers!

No, but I would never tell them something that I didn't believe to be true. Or in the case of advice, I genuinely tell them what I would do in the situation. I always do it in a way that lets them know that I care and am looking out for their best interests. This goes for my personal life as well as in my work environment. I expect the same from the people I care about as well.
