You're not much older than me (not going to say actual age here because it's a public entry), but for some reason I always think of you as a lot older than me. I think it's just because you're a lot more mature than me, and also you're a lot more stable life-wise.
I agree with you about brutal honesty. Granted, I've had cases where I'm honest with someone without sugar-coating it, but those certain cases, it happens because that's how I honestly feel and I WANT how I genuinely feel to be packaged into it. When talking with a person that's well-intentioned and well-mannered, there's no good reason to be nasty regardless of differences in opinion. :) I get the same feeling as you over people that claim to be "brutally honest," which is that it's not really about trying to be a good person and upholding a virtue; it's really just about trying to mask their egoistic asshole mindsets with labels they think would make something they clearly know is wrong sound like a good thing.
Your number 18.... is hard for me to think about. Given the themes that first come to my mind. There are things that have happened to me in my life that you know about that have taken me many many years to even partially put behind me, to where I can finally enjoy life. I know what you're saying for number 18 is smart and accurate for most cases, but it can be really self-destructive in special cases if you don't have any emotional support. If a rape victim keeps getting raped, then....
And that's all my impressions, reading your post.
