Unhappy TALKING DIPLOMACY to friends .....
in our life we have to be very diplomatic .
talking something to one person and something else to someone else.
but the degree of diplomacy varies from person to person ...there are people in my life to whom i can not state a truth blatantly but i have to polish the truth with words so that its meaninng changes ,,,i dont want noone to feel hurt ...but it really troubles me this partial hiding of truth

This is the real world. ^^, We have to be civil. I know it feels fake and full of lies, but you need to master this skill in order to live in a civil manner with those around you.

Talk to your closest friends and family honestly, to the others, in a civil manner.

I know it's hard, carry yourself with confidence and think positive thoughts.

The trick is to know the possible consequences of telling the truth. I hate to lie or to tell partial truths or lie by omission. It is rife and I honestly hate it. However, people react differently and being smart doesn't make a liar of you. Be honest with yourself that you are lying to keep the peace.

It seems to me if you have to hide who really are= lying, then maybe you don't have the best friends? Maybe you need to try to surround yourself with other compatible people. Lies do not become us.

Those that try to adjust how to say things are only doing that to please others.

That means that you seek approval from others. But why? You do not need anyone's approval.

You are not here to please others, you should only please yourself. You should not care what others think about you because you should only be concerned about keeping yourself happy.
