Being frank is a virtue... being blunt is an issue. Alot of people claims that their frank characteristic is hurting others with words - let me tell you this - most, infact virtually all of them are categorized under blunt.Originally posted by yahoo.com:i got a serious problem being too frank. i hurt my gf many a times while speaking to her. uttered words that hurt her deeply. i meant it from a different angle but when i reflected upon wat if my words had been said by my gf herself, i also would have interpreted it as what my gf initially interpreted. i dunno y but i cant seem to know what is right to talk and what is not. i guess i have been mixing with too many males thats why i am so insensitive with my words. any help?

yaya u r right.. i m not frank but blunt!Originally posted by Yunhaier:Being frank is a virtue... being blunt is an issue. Alot of people claims that their frank characteristic is hurting others with words - let me tell you this - most, infact virtually all of them are categorized under blunt.
Frank is diffused with tactful and empathy - while blunt is the absence of it. You can be frank with your feelings and emotions - but you know how to speak properly yet getting your message across the other party.
For a start - everytime you feel that anger is brewing and you sure going to blast at her again. RECONGISE THAT ANGER immediately - then tell yourself 'this anger is coming and I must watch for my words.' Keep repeating in your mind, looking into her words and speak slightly slower than you always speak. This gives you time to change and lessen the effect of hostile words you will be using. This will sure to work - provided if you really want to improve on this aspect of your character.
Just for fun, are you a Aries, Cancer, Libra, Capricorn?
