• When a person says he's 'just being honest', this is a good time to start looking for the exits. Especially a potential romantic partner. People who put great priority on 'just being honest'...that means they're about to harm you in some very essential way. Not just that they're going to screw you over or cheat on you, they're really going to find the vulnerable spot and get to it. Because it gives them pleasure; that's how they get their pleasure. And so they say to you: 'Hey, you know, I just try to be an honest person.' Oh, my friends. Locate all the places to run in a fire in that kind of situation.
