Do as you say

Anyone can churn out words effortlessly in order to impress those around them with half a brain. It takes a lot more than that for others.

I have always been a fan of the saying actions speak louder than words, despite the over-use of the phrase. I find that sometimes my words are mean, brutal, and perhaps too honest. But anyone that is my friend knows how truly I love them just by my actions alone.

I find I am running into a lot of bullshitters and I much rather not associate with any of them. If you are going to say one thing to me and behave entirely in the opposite, expect me to call you out on it and expect me not to put up with it. Respect me enough to not treat me as though I have just half a brain and shoot it to me straight. I’m a big girl, I don’t need sugarcoating.

People have told me that I am too intense or too honest. But how much time is wasted and how much mis-communication occurs because people are too pansy to say what they really mean or what they really want? I am frankly tired of beating around the bush and doing an embarassing passive-aggressive dance.

No one can accuse you of toying with their emotions if you just come right out and say what you want to say.

To all those out there - that are passive-aggressive or are bullshitters, just respect the people around you enough to

1) Do as you say

2) Just be direct and come right out with exactly what it is you really want

If you can’t do that. Then you probably shouldn’t try to get involved with another personĀ  until you get your shit straightened out.
