Is there such a thing as too honest?

You on the spectrum?

Well, if you're honest to the point of hurting people's feelings, then yeah, that may be too honest.

Like if your friend has a really ugly baby, that may be something you should keep to yourself.

---

I want to be as honest and thorough and cover my bases

You'll never get laid that way. Jesus, loosen up, smoke a lot of weed and start telling some lies for frick's sake, join the human race.

You mean a-hole honest?

Yes. People don't want to be lied to, but they don't always want the whole truth. Any man who's ever been in a long term relationship knows this.

Yes and I am

That's s polite way of saying "I don't give a shite what you think--stop voicing your ridiculous opinions to me"

Yes. Come on, man. If you are socially aware at all then you know there are times to keep your mouth shut or try to be tactful in responses. People who say they have problems with being "too honest" are actually assholes who can't keep their opinions to themselves and usually convey their opinions in a condescending manner. They're also typically not near as smart as they think they are and lack humility.

e.g. The person or people who told you that you are "too honest" are actually trying to tactfully convey this to you, but you are too obtuse to pick up on it.
