" How long would you stay in a relationship with a romantic partner or friend who lied to you? Or a person who pretended to be someone other than who he or she really was? Not long (if you loved yourself). How happy would you be in a relationship with someone you didn’t communicate openly with? Or who didn’t take responsibility for his or her actions, words, and choices? "
