No its not bad...but like everything else should be metered out over time...
I have learnt if you come out with everything you have straight away...people run..."They say" they want truth and honesty and love...what "they" really mean is they dont want you to cheat on them...They dont want you to tell them how you feel at any given moment...and they dont want to know your history.

Yes its bad - if you tell them you have been married four times and want to fall in love...lol...Just ask me.

No its not bad to tell them the truth - when they ask for it...thats the bottom line...dont give anything they dont ask for...:).

I agree with what you're saying to an extent, but it could be viewed as hiding something as well.
Not saying you are, but some might see it that way.

thumbs up

Honesty is the best policy in my opinon but i suppose you could say is being dishonest not telling them things they don't ask for?
Or is that just holding back the truth..
But I believe in honesty

I dont think not telling them things they dont ask for is dishonest or holding back the truth.... I think its something you can tell them later when you get to know them better and feel comfortable telling them

I'm all for honesty myself... means you take responsibility for your own actions and behaviours regardless of the consequences... after all no one is perfect and we all f*ck up occasionally. If people want to judge you because you tell the truth then they can go f*ck themselves scold

always good to put yourself in someone else's shoes and understand why they do the things they do ... but...

on a more serious note.. sometimes it is not safe for people to tell the truth .. people in abusive relationships for example very mad

Right on blondie.

Honesty will always be best in the long term.

Honesty also does not mean you have to blurt out everything either. Just tactful.

well i will honestly never tell another friend of mine that her partner is playing around. lost 2 good friends so far..... They chose to stay with the cheaters and then they dont feel comfortable when i am around. thought i would have worked it out the first time. but the second was a cousin and she was always on about if we found out something like that about or mates then we should speak up. now i think about outcomes, anon letter in the mail should do it.

That's Dr Phil's advice too.

I didn't read all the earlier posts, so I did notice it was about cheating.

No one ever will thankyou for breaking the news.
