Pleasing him. He is very hard to talk to. Somehow I always feel I have to be on the defensive instead of just talking things out. I am so willing to compromise. Or not get what I want at all. He takes everything personal and it just becomes a argument and not how it should go
I always want to make him happy, but at the same time I always tell him the truth. Like when he does something unintentional that bothers me I always tell him and vise versa:)
Its a balance
The truth should always please your partner
Speaking the truth. But you need some balance in there too
It's an equilibrium between the two; I'll never lie to please though.
Speaking the truth
Speaking the truth. Which can get me in trouble from time to time.
Pleasing. The truth will just stress her out in some cases.
I believe pleasing him is telling him the truth. Without it we would not be together.
Pleasing her. Definitely.
Speaking the truth would be pleasing to him
Pleasing her. I tend to hide my feelings if I'm afraid of hurting her.
Truth is more important!!! Is you sugar coat it or lie, it always comes out in the end, so I believe the truth is pleasing someone (even if it doesn't immediately!).
Have no idea of an example though.
