Tell your side of the story and crowdsource an honest answer to the age old question; Am I The Asshole?

Yeah, that's how I feel about it.

[And yet SOME people!! Seem to think otherwise!]

It'd be nice if it was, but it just isn't. Not in my experience, anyway.

[hairrowing]

No, it isn't in my experience either. I'd say it's unrealistic.

[pawper]

Unrealistic, yeah.

[A nod that comes easily, colored by an obvious relief. At least here’s someone that seemed to understand.]

I don’t think they really know what they’re asking for. They’d get sick of anyone that was totally honest with them all the time.

[hairrowing]

They'd get mad-- people think they want to hear the truth, but they just want to hear what they want to hear.
