I pride myself on being "brutally honest" but am I honest or just brutal? Analyze my "honesty": is it truth-telling or is it cruelty with permission? Map every time I've been "brutally honest" and expose: was that necessary? Did it help? Or did I just want to say something mean and call it honesty? Then reveal the difference: brutal honesty (I'm saying hard truths to help) vs. just brutal (I'm being cruel and hiding behind "I'm just honest"). Show me where my "honesty" is actually just me being an asshole. Decode what I'm actually doing: am I helping people see truth or am I weaponizing honesty to feel superior? Am I brave or just rude? Give me the reality: people don't admire your "brutal honesty," they just tolerate it because confronting you seems harder. Include: whether I'm truthful or just mean, what I get from "telling it like it is," and if people respect my honesty or just avoid me.
