"The Awful Truth."

I couldn't help but wonder ... Are individuals planting big premiums on truthfulness and openness, where now we've misplaced the boundaries of propriety; Are there still things in a relationship that one should never say? After critical thinking, I think there are utterances better left un-uttered. Those venomous words that we don't mean and are unfiltered roll off of the tongue in a split second cause irreparable damage for the relationship; However, there are circumstances where words slip out unexpectedly and completely not planned, and we do mean them which is what we're delving into now.

There are websites which highlight the top stuff you should never say to your girlfriend ... The reoccurring thing is never to say things that you actually don't mean to flight from a fight. Are men avoiding the awful truth to maintain a halfway decent relationship? Say a man could appropriately balance what he truly means, from which that he doesn't. Wouldn't logic say the "truth", the actual truth, great or awful is appropriate? "Are there still things in a relationship that one should never say" is quite a puzzling topic, 'cause the answer is both "Yes" and "No".

Those reckless split second utterances definitely equal "Yes" ... You're, regardless it's inadvertent, slandering the relationship. Sometimes, men and women wander into forbidden territory 'cause they're hurting, and want their partner to feel the same; Understand their pain, regardless it's meaningless or temporary. Evaluate the scenario, understand the warnings and think twice prior to crossing those risky lines. Once you opt to cross, remember (s)he may not be standing alongside you after it ... You must think to yourself, would that be worth it in the end?

Those times where the truth, the awful truth, stays undisclosed equals a "No" ... You are bottling the truth, and that's a surefire recipe for total disaster, Townies. You're wandering into forbidden territory via avoiding communication, openness and truthfulness. Plant the premium, whatever it takes to swing things into the right direction for you, and whatever that actually means dumb luck and fate knows.

So ... Are there still things in a relationship that one should never say? It's a puzzling war between crossing risky bridges and bottling the truth. It's high-risk relationship behavior, and it's a decision that's all your own, when interpreting what these mean for yourself and your relationship.
