Please, don't be indirect evasive insincere sugar-coating person. Tell me the truth. I will get angry. Then calm down. Then I will respect you.

The part where "you get angry with me" for being honest hurts me. So how does that fit into the equation? Am I meant to be hurt for doing what you wanted?

Perhaps a better approach would be to skip the "anger" bit and perhaps fast-forward to the "respect" bit. If that's not possible, then don't be surprised when people stop being honest with you. And most certainly don't complain about it.

I don't feel like going on the anger journey with you
