IS TELLING THE TRUE ALWAYS GOOD?

IS TELLING THE TRUE ALWAYS GOOD BECAUSE SOMETIMES I FEEL LIKE YOU HAVE TO LIE TO KEEP FROM HURTING SOMEONES FEELINGS. HOW DO YOU FEEL?

QUICK SMALL EX. IF SOME ONE ASKED YOU IF THIER HAIR STYLE WAS CUTE AND YOU TRULY THOUGHT IT WAS UGLY WHAT DO YOU SAY?

I'M SURE IT COULD BE A WAY BIGGER ISSUE THAN THAT SO WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT TELLING THE TRUE IN ALL SITUATIONS. HOLLA BACK

I had to learn the hard way, but telling the truth is always best. Honesty is always the best policy even if at times it might not seem like it. I think that if you be honest with people, they will feel more confident that you told them the truth even though the truth hurts.

i'm sorry but if it's ugly it's ugly. there is no need to sugar coat it and get their feelings all up for the next person to str8 up tell them the truth, then they really gonna feel bad. so i say tellin the truth always works best!!!

This is how I look at it:

Honestly is always best because it tells alot about your character.
I would not want my friend telling me my hair looks good , when they know goodness well that sh!t looks nasty on me. To me thats not cool peoples. I always tell my friends that no matter what the answer is just tell me the truth.Besides then I know I can ask you or tell you something and you wont be a yes man so to speak.

it's diffentely better to tell the truth - if their hair is toe up, tell them but sometimes if you know what you're saying is about to hurt their feelings, don't lie, just don't say nothing. that's how i do it and if they gotta hear it then i'll just be like, "ok, don't get mad but..." or "you're about to trip when i say this but oh well....." anyways that's just my two cents. HOLLA.

IF YOU AND YOUR FRIEND ARE ESPECILALLY TIGHT.. THEN YA SHOULD DEFINIETLY BE TELLING EACH OTHER THE TRUTH NO MATTER THE CASE... BECAUSE REAL FRIENDS CAN BE REAL WITH EACH OTHER 24-7...REMEMBER THAT.
