In response to friends post: I think people do care about other peoples feelings, some so much to a fault. The fault being it makes them less honest or make false promises so they dont hurt the feelings of someone close to them. The problem with that is then they arent living true to themselves because lying, even if its half truths, is exhausting and a waste of energy. Furthermore, they arent setting up good longterm conditions for a relationship. Being true to myself is a daily goal i set - it is better to be honest (hopefully tactfully) than always trying to please others. Its not always easy, and i do consider others feelings. But i am in reflection trying to take honest criticism better and other forms of honesty from friends being forthright and true to themselves. This is the ultimate form of respect - to acknowledge a friend who may not wanna please u in order to stay true to themselves, and love and respect their position regardless of a little temporary ego pain. It is these friends who i count on for truth. For from truth and often a little pain are the greatest opportunities for growth. And thas whats up. Im all about growing.
