How do you respond when somebody you have never met in person and only exchanged a sentence or two with online suddenly tells you they are "honest?"
Deb- I know from what you have told me about yourself that you have reason to doubt your judgement about men, but in this case the rash declaration from the man that he is honest does sound inappropriate.
anyone who says..'to be honest' could never be trusted.
never trust somebody who says they can be trusted without being asked!!! never trust somebody who says they can be trusted. never trust somebody who says you can trust them.
never trust anybody unless you know they are trustworthy.
an honest person does not have to brag about being trustworthy.
"Methinks thou dost protest too much" - Shakespeare.
the saying 'take it with a pinch of salt' comes to mind
