When people don't say what they mean how people supposed to know what they mean?

Are most of people into this social game when people don't tell their real thoughts but anything else. Then they wonder why their "hints" are not understood and why they find themselves from troubles.

Do you enjoy of lying or are you rather honest and clear with people?

I don't think they are deliberately being dishonest but it can be tricky dealing with this. The only thing that would concern me is if they didn't recognize their part if there is a misunderstanding. A relationship could not continue like this.

This.

People are so afraid of hurting someone else's feelings these days, but it's not because they're nice or trying to be nice. I feel like they do this and claim that they're being polite.

Oh and some are obsessed with not telling you everything and having you figure out what they meant because they have to seem mysterious or something.

b

Its all the PC hoohah nowadays that people are scared that they might offend.

I'm lacking an internal filter and its easier for me to be honest and get straight to the point instead of beating around the bush wasting time.
