the kind liar.

Okay so there's this guy (how many blogs start off like this? Like, a little over half of them?).

Okay, scratch that first part.
We'll try it this way:

Kindness or honesty? Kindness or honesty?
He chooses kindness.
I choose honesty.
[Interesting to note. The other person who said "kindness" was the gay guy cheating on his boyfriend. Great company, right?]

Aside from hairstyles and body size, I would hope honesty would always prevail over kindness. With questions where kindness or honesty has to be chosen (egs, "do you love me" "why are there fish scales in the toilet? where's bubbles?" and other affairs of the heart) the kindest thing to do is to be honest. To spare the asker's feelings is vain and selfish on the kind liar's part.

Where one has to be chosen.
Honesty over kindness.
