Coz I dont think people like Honest opinions. And they even start disliking others only coz they were honest. Whats your take?

If someone asks you for an honest opinion and you give one, isn't it stupid to hate that person? Coz you asked the person for it !

Hi The ROCK. Yes, i do like an honest response. BUT! there is a huge difference between being honest and completely rude! Especially if the person didn't even read the question properly and has gone off half cut!
As to disliking people because they were being honest, that's just crazy! I have asked a few questions that have caused people to respond both rudely and distasteful which is now one of my pet peeves....However, you can be honest and courteous which shows far more integrity don't you think!? ;)

I appreciate honest...even if it 'hurts'. I agree that many people in Y!A don't like honest answers especially if they disagree with the answerers point of view, or if the answer 'hurts' or hits too close to home. I also think that,regardless of the validity of their answers, many people take a dislike to certain people, for wahtever personal reasons.
People want your "honest" opinons so they can better assess how much they('re going to) like you. Even thought they ask for your 'honest', they don't always appreciate it...if you're honest with them, you may tell them something they don't want to hear...so some actually prefer (white) lies to the absolute truth.

I like honesty for sure, but there are times when people think they are being honest, when they are really being rude. Its a fine line.
I dont dislike anyone on P&S for their honesty or answers - even if they are nasty. The nasty ones I laugh at coz it equals ignorance, and the true honest ones I appreciate :)

Whether I like the opinion or not, I still prefer honesty. To me, there is no point in just getting opinion that I want to hear. Sometimes the truth hurts, but still....we are living in a society, so other people's opinion still matters. However, it is not about pleasing others. It is about having a balance of our own opinion and that of other people.

I appreciate honest opinions, even respect the person for them. Even if I do not LIKE the opinion or agree.
I love that ppl's opinions differ, think how boring life would be otherwise....

If a person give their honest opinion then that's good. Whether I agree with it is a different story.

How would you know if their opinions were honest?
when someone says " to be honest with you..." means that person is not being honest.

You shouldn't ask a question if your afraid of what the answer might be. I appreciate people who are blunt and upfront. It stops society from creating stereotypes when your upfront and honest.
