• HONESTY
  Honesty is defined as straight-forwardness in conduct. Honesty implies a refusal to lie, steal, or deceive in any way. It is a simple concept that sometimes gets sidetracked by rationalizing. In addition, there is the factor of emotional honesty - being real, truthful, open and vulnerable. If you hide or distort your feelings with your partner, you are not being honest.
