Brutally Honest

They say that Honesty is the best policy. Is that true? How are they defined best? I never really understood that. Well, can't blame them. I don't understand half of this society's rules and norms. I often feel like these so-called normal society's rights and wrongs are a little outdated.

So, let's get back to Honesty, Lately, I decided to be brutally honest in my love life. I started telling him everything. What I am doing, where am going, the guys I admire secretly and so many other things. Even I told him that my ex-boyfriend is coming to town, and I have plans to visit him. Surprisingly he wasn't jealous, nor he was angry. He patiently heard everything. All he asked was "where is he going to stay". I was Miss honest at that time. I told him he will be staying with me. He just nodded, and we both left to their own homes as usual.

We all regret things after doing them. So, I felt bad that I invited my Ex over. Being an honest girlfriend, I called my Ex and told him "Mick, I can't meet you. I'm in divine love with my present boyfriend, I can't take the possible risk which can happen when we are together in one room" he agreed. I called my boyfriend and told him all this. I gave him lessons also about how we should be transparent and honest with each other. Doesn't matter whatever it is we should talk to each other. I told him all those cliches.

That evening like usual days my Mr. perfect boyfriend called me after 2 drinks. This time he wanted to be honest.

"Ok dear, you tell me, I am always here for you, you can tell me anything."

I gave him confidence. Then he said that he started living with some girl from my own office. It's been a few days now.

Oh really...!! Right under my nose, he was cheating on me when I was trying to be Miss Honest.

So the end of the story is Honesty is not always a great policy. You need to think hard and wide before taking such a drastic step. Especially on whom you are being honest.
