Is honesty really always the best policy?


I mean the knee-jerk reaction is probably to say yes but here's an example that makes me wonder. A coworker told me that another coworker had been talking unkindly about me behind my back. It served no positive purpose and only hurt my feelings. Did I really need to know that?

To me, honesty is the only policy. If I can't be honest with someone, they are unworthy of interacting with me. There are very few people I interact with, but I guess that's what I asked for. I filtered out all the bullshitters.
