Do you agree or disagree with the following statement?
Always telling the truth is the most important consideration in any relationship.
Relationship related issues are not trivial. People have had different opinions about the most important qualities for a relationship throughout history. According to this prompt, truth-telling is the most important one and should not be neglected. However, in my perspective, I strongly disagree with this suggestion, and I believe that it is more advantageous to lie in some situations. Furthermore, I assert that other characteristics are also as important as honesty, if not more.
First of all, telling the truth might not be legal in some occasions. For example, consider a lawyer who is working on a murder case, or a product manager who is working on a new product. Such people are not allowed to tell the truth about their job. If their partners ask them about their cases and projects, they have to lie. This example clearly shows that it is not always possible to be honest because on some occasions, it might be illegal and that person will most likely lose his or her occupation if he or she reveals such secret information. It is also against moral principles to discuss such secrets with people outside the job environment.
Secondly, honesty could hurt other people in some specific situations. In those times, it is better to lie to prevent unpleasant consequences, such as arguments and resentments. For instance, if a woman always tells the truth about her husband’s clothes or style or behaviors, she may seem rude and impolite, which might cause a number of arguments in the future. It is of vital importance for the partners to respect each other’s feelings, for this is not only a sign of love but also a sign of attention. Hence, it is possible to be dishonest about such small issues in order to have a healthy relationship.
Thirdly, telling the truth is important, but not the most important quality. Other qualities such as sympathy, mutual understanding, and affection are equally important. Research has consistently shown that without mutual understanding, people cannot stay together for a long time and will most likely end their relationships in the future. Sympathy is also crucial, for people need a partner who cares about their problems and can help them go through such troublesome occasions. Affection is also an obvious requirement because relationships are all about love. It seems absurd to think of honesty as the most vital consideration if those who are in a relationship do not love each other at all. Hence, all the conclusion of the prompt is flawed because all these virtues have to work in harmony and there is not a single factor with higher significance.
In conclusion, relationships are extremely delicate and should be treated with great care and wisdom. Additionally, without proper research and statistics, it is difficult to reach a final, definite conclusion. However, because of aforementioned reasons, I contend that truth-telling is not always beneficial and is not the most significant consideration. Thus, those involved in a relationship better take all aspects into account and do not mainly focus on honesty itself.
