Let's Be Honest...

I find myself saying "Let's Be Honest" all the time and I've started thinking about what I am actually saying. How honest are we really? How often do I NOT say something in order to protect feelings? Or how often do I tell part truths just to avoid contention? Am I really doing anyone any good? I wish I could say I have the answers but I don't. I often tell myself and do believe that "Honest is the Best Policy" but why aren't I more inclined to use it? Being single and still in the "Dating Game," honesty becomes a big topic of discussion. If only everyone were completely honest with each other in dating...but wouldn't that take the "game" part out of it? Then again is that really a bad thing? So often it is much easier to avoid someone...not answer their calls, find things to say you are "busy" doing on the weekends, and avoid complete honesty all together. Why is it so hard to just say, 'Sorry, I'm just not interested.'? I have found from past experience that being honest from the start really is beneficial. We all want honest relationships, right? So here is the true question...How do I be Christlike in rejection? And will I ever experience a relationship that doesn't end in rejection? This is my life...
