This one’s for all of you who could never be bothered to beat around the bush in any given situation. You know what you want and you know that honesty is always the best policy. Any relationship advice you get always feels irrelevant since you’ll simply speak what’s on your mind anyway, no sweeteners or frills involved- that’s how you naturally are.
Rules? What Rules?
You’ve always followed your own rules and so the ‘dating’ rules always seem way too over-rehearsed for you to follow. Sure, your best friend believes that you can’t just text them back immediately and that you have to wait for at least half an hour to seem like you’re ‘busy’, but you just believe that it’s only naturally respectful that you reply once you read a text.
You may have been told to remain all sorts of coy and uninterested, whereas in reality, you’re totally falling for someone, so as to keep them on their toes and make them chase after you. You, however, would so much rather just speak your heart out and tell them how you feel. After all, life’s too short for endless plots and twists.
“Till Too Much Honesty Do Us Part” Has Probably Been the Motto of Every Relationship You’ve Been In:
Some people just can’t handle how unabashedly straightforward you are. You speak your mind about your partner’s annoying habits and are completely fine with them doing the same. You don’t try to sugar coat the reality of any situation and you don’t compliment your way through to their heart. You don’t hint at being mad at them, and instead, say it straight to their face.
You Always Know What You Want & Are Vocal About It:
You don’t go with their flow- nope, you go with your OWN flow. Sure, many people think it’s easier to just agree with their partner and have things go their way, but you just believe that’s a prime example of a relationship built on a foundation made of marshmallows. You always vocalize your thoughts, wants and needs.
More Often Than Not People Assume You’re Putting On a “Cool” Act:
“No, I’m not trying to impress you with my shameless forwardness,” you find yourself thinking as they say they’ve never met anyone so blunt before. Your attitude in general is not an act or a way for you to seem all kinds of badass. It really is who you’ve always been, currently are and always will be.
You Appreciate Mutual Honesty More than Anything:
If they welcome your bluntness and send some of their own your way then they’re a definite keeper- after all, not many people can both embrace and emit honesty.
To wrap up, being a super blunt person in the dating world surely isn’t a walk in the park most of the time, but I stand firmly by my complete trust in being as honest as can be. Whoever said “the truth will set you free” probably knew what they were talking about.
