A swiftly will be the answer
A very large number of people nowadays chooses the comfort lie rather than the painful truth, why’s that you ask? Well it’s because we avoid these realities because we’re afraid of how these experiences will make us feel.
Some people chooses to lie their way out of a situation to save themselves saying “small lies don’t matter” or “I lie to protect the feelings of others”. Those people that say those ‘protects’ themselves from the potential pain and consequences that are expected to experience from their feelings or even their own judgement.
In my opinion, the truth will always be the priority in every situation, no matter how painful it is, it’s better to take in that truth than take that comfortable lie that could possibly damage relationships in the future. Even if it hurts others, it’s always better to be honest to them so it doesn’t do much damage anymore. Not telling the truth can be bitter and severe a lot more aspects in your life. Honesty is all about the emotional truth in any situation.
