What’s the hardest thing you’ve ever had to do to someone you loved?
I’m sure there are a great many people that would answer, “Telling them the truth.” or “Lying to them” or something similar. I read a forum that had this exact question, and the great majority of the answers were along those lines.
Admittedly, telling the truth is much harder than lying. At least when you’re lying you can pick the truth that they hear. The truth is always the hardest thing to give to someone, especially when the news isn’t what you’d want it to be.
I had to think about it for a while on what would have been my most difficult test in love. It ended up having nothing to do with truth or lies or anything in between.
