If honesty hurts them, were they ever really your friend? A friend is the very person you should expect the truth from, good,bad or indifferent.A real friend will always be there for you and will be honest when it matters....JMO

You know that alot of the time people don't really want to hear the truth,some think they do till they hear it...I stand on the 5th admentment..
Who can say why people are what they are. Honesty is a good thing when you hear "you're too good for them", then take their word for it. No one knows better than they do.

A good friend can tell you what is the matter with you in a minute. He may not seem such a good friend after telling!!!!

Honesty is the prerequisite condition to keep a relation exist and last as long as we want, then always being honest is the good character to be maintained through all you life. In your case, why you dont ask directly your friend that you want from him more than a friendship, can we be lovers, LOL, and listen his answer, when u get it, tell me, i will hv the next advice ?

I agree DF. Besides what one says is usually an opinion. It is about what you feel and not necessarily what they want to hear. They may not believe your opinion to be true. So unless they are asking which shoes should they wear, I would say...well how do you feel about it? And just mirror back what they say.
