As always, under the cut. Fairly accurate, especially the honesty part. Read more about my ideas regarding honesty at the end of this. Or not...
I am a firm believer in selective honesty. Too often people use honesty as an excuse for being cruel and vicious or upsetting people. Since most of the people I deal IRL with are elderly (or in the case of My Cousin Donna(tm) drunk or high or both), I choose not to share a great deal with them because quite frankly, I don't want everything to turn into a major battle. Why tell things that are just going to create more grief for me? As a kid I was pretty honest but I soon grew out of that phase.
Your Values Profile |
![]() Loyalty: You value loyalty a fair amount. You're loyal to your friends... to a point. But if they cross you, you will reconsider your loyalties. Staying true to others is important to you, but you also stay true to yourself. Honesty: You don't really value honesty. You do value getting your way, no matter what. And if a little lying is required to do that, no problem. A few white lies never hurt anyone (at least, that's what you tell yourself!) Generosity: You value generosity a fair amount. You are all about giving, as long as there's some give and take. Supportive and kind, you don't mind helping out a friend in need. But you know when you've given too much. You have no problem saying "no"! Humility: You value humility highly. You have the self-confidence to be happy with who you are. And you don't need to seek praise to make yourself feel better. You're very modest, and you're keep the drama factor low. Tolerance: You value tolerance highly. Not only do you enjoy the company of those very different from you... You do all that you can to seek it out interesting and unique friends. You think there are many truths in life, and you're open to many of them. |
