I remember turning 21 and coming to NYC and sitting with my ball busting friends. They are brutally honest as all the ball busting isn't any good if we're just making things up, it has to be truthful. It taught me to be moreso.
I used to be just a nice guy, not so much any longer. I tend to say things how I see them.

That's one thing I've noticed: When I am radically honest, people become radically honest themselves.

Nothing summed it up more than that for me. It is exactly my experience. It is how Skogafoss and I communicate. I tell her things that are on my mind as they are. There isn't much to just yelling and stomping feet, but to state why you are yelling and stomping feet, letting that communication sink in as the emotions pass over you becomes the bonding communication.
