Well, 3 years on. still not completely good with the old truth telling. by that i mean silly white lies, it’s like it’s a lack of communication skills. but i think i’m more accepting of myself. so i’ll keep going with this one!
Does this mean i tell the guy that i like that i fancy him? i think maybe…. regret what you’ve done, not what you’ve not done, et al?

ok this one is already making me feel better about life. this morning i woke up and felt good. this is a goal that’s going to help me conquer my shyness too, bonus.
It gets to me that sometimes unintentional lies just pop out when I get nervous and I say what I think someone wants to hear. over the silliest simplest things, then feel terrible for a long time afterwards.
My intention is not to hurt anyone’s feelings, there is a need for tact. Instead I need to just be upfront, and quit with this weird form of shyness.
eg someone asked me if the book on the table was mine.
I answered yes, but it’s really depressing so probably wasn’t going to carry on reading it.
why be so negative? just so they wouldn’t ask my opinion? isn’t my choice good enough for me? will change, getting better at just telling simple truth! will keep myself updated on progress.
