"If I said yes, I'd be lying. I got called a duplicitous cunt once a long time ago, I have to wear that now!" That, my friend is a collectors' item badge of honour right there. What a phrase. Top drawer stuff. | |||

"Probably not. I don’t over share. People don’t need to know everything. " Exactly this. I have no idea why people have to tell others everything There are so many people on the forums overshare. Maybe they think they are super interesting If I was interested to know something I'd ask then | |||

"Everything that we do is authentic to ourselves because we are doing it. If you lie that's authentic to you, in that moment you're a liar, just as much as if you do something more positive. The idea there is a better, more authentic self is mostly just self flattery. You're always and only you." I almost perfectly half-agree with that 🤣 | |||

"Do you feel that you live authentically to your values, that you’re open and honest with others about who you are and what you do? " I live authentically to my values but I am not completely open and honest with others about who I am and what I do because not everyone needs or wants to know all of me. | |||

"Living authentically and not giving a shit what people think of me is what helped with eliminating my depression. I show appreciation to those who show their respect for me and I give it back, even if they don't agree with everything I say but they're mature and civil about it. Those who have a problem with me, I honestly don't care. I do no harm but I take no shit." ![]() | |||

"Do you feel that you live authentically to your values, that you’re open and honest with others about who you are and what you do? " Live to my values - yes Open and honest - yes - I think so I don't openly discuss being on here, but if someone asked I would tell them. | |||

"Yes and no. Realistically am I most authentic self in work, nope. Being so would make everyone else's life more difficult. Everyone tones themselves down in some way or another in certain situations, to think otherwise is naïve. I don't think being like that changes who you are as a person. You're just adapting to the environment you are in. Plus the majority of us do things and look back and think what was I thinking. Nobody is perfect though often on Fab you'd think everyone was ![]() There’s adapting to the environment and others but authenticity is doing that while staying true to your values & beliefs, especially when under pressure or peer pressure or when it’s just convenient. | |||

"Do you feel that you live authentically to your values, that you’re open and honest with others about who you are and what you do? " As I'm firmly in the closet, I suppose the answer to that is no. As far as possible, I just try to be me. ![]() | |||

Nobody is perfect though often on Fab you'd think everyone was ![]() I don't know tbh, there are people I dislike in work for example. Outside of work I'd give them a wide berth but you know you have to be kind of polite in work. Telling them exactly what I think of them would not go down well. Do I pretend to like them in work no, but I do tolerate them and engage in pleasantries yes. To me I personally feel that isn't my authentic self. However, my core values don't change, have gone to complain about a colleague being bullied, even though I wasn't impacted. There's grey areas in my opinion and that's just life | |||
