Can you handle the truth?

Every person is unique and has his own personality. When it comes to accepting bare truths we have different responses too. Do you like the truth being broken gently or do you prefer to receive the hard truth as it is?

Being a truthful person myself, I basically do not like being lied to. So if anyone is asking how I like the truth when it is to be given to me, I almost always will prefer the hard truth. It is direct and generally avoids beating around the bush. And that's how I generally like it.

Yes. I would be able to handle it. I have been through a lot and not one truth, though it will hurt me to the depths of my heart - i can manage that. And that is what i want anyway. I hate it when people hide things from me. they say what you dont know won't hurt you... yes, of course, cause you still have no idea about it... the thing is - it will eventually come out in the open and when you become the last person to know it will hurt much more than it should be. Sometimes when truths are slapped in my face, i would feel really numb. That is how i protect myself from pain and hurtful feelings.

I usually demand to know the truth. I really fair better knowing the truth rather than being lied to. Tell me the truth and allow me to handle it and decide what to do. I hate to be played the fool. I tend to say how or what I feel also because its rather hard for me to put up a face. So out with the truth.

I think I can handle the truth. I'd prefer to have it as it is because I hate breaking it to me in circles. If I have to know something, tell it to me straight because I'm a straight forward person too. I'm frank and I speak up my mind, so I prefer that they talk to me that way too.

I can handle it, but there is some truth I prefer never to handle.
