noun, plural -ties.
1. the quality or fact of being honest; uprightness and fairness.
2. truthfulness, sincerity, or frankness.
3. freedom from deceit or fraud.
Thought I would give you the dictionary's definition since so many people these days seem to not know the meaning of the word.
At least that's the way it seems in the dating world.
There are levels of honesty in the dating underworld (or perhaps I should say levels of DIS-honesty).
1. The "No Truth in Advertising" Level...
*"I am divorced..I have no fiance', no live-in girlfriend or no girlfriend at all. I am single, I swear!!"
Who are you trying to convince here, me or yourself?
2. The "I'll tell her what she wants to hear in order to get what I want" Level... *"You're beautiful (ok..that one is true..lol). I feel a connection with you, this could be love."
But we haven't even met face to face yet! SERIOUSLY???
3. The "We're Just Friends" Level.. *"We hang out from time to time" "We kick it every now & then and btw, I can't return your text/call when we're kicking it" "Oh that's my friend calling, I gotta take this {click!!} That must be some friend!
That's just a glimpse into the pack of lies that are hurdled into our paths as we seek a partner. I didn't realize that dating was like gardening. Constantly pulling the weeds away so that when the flower rises, it can grow. Problem is, the flower often has weeds attached and it's hard to differentiate one from the other. You often uproot the good while trying to ward off the evil.
