I never understood why people ask for an honest answer if they don’t want to accept the honesty (1 Viewer)

I don’t get it

Then why ask for an honest opinion if you’re going to assume it offensive ​

stupid social nonsense I guess? like how asking how are you doesnt mean they really wanna know how u are

 

[Magician]

I think it really depends how you say it, you can be honest without being hurtful

 

[Ahsoka]

They just have an accent where the prefix dis is silent Easy mistake

 

[pinkmelodies]

I think people naturally want to hear what they want so they don't expect to be offended. Other than that, the person asking should always be ready for what the opinion is

Annoying social rules

@Magician said it best. it just depends on how you say it. There's a fine line between brutal honesty and constructive criticvism, and some people just ignore that and go straight for brutality. I think this is probably why people are afraid of giving or receiving honest answers; they don't want to sound too brutal.
