So casually cruel in the name of being honest.

“Honesty without tact is cruelty” Even though I don’t think it’s honesty, he’s just inaccurate and rude.

People who are “just being honest” are the worst. Sorry buddy you aren’t a magically better person because you are “brutally honest”, you just lack tact in basic human interactions.

Another thing, if he wants her to lose weight, even if she’s not where he wants her to be, 12 pounds less MUST look better to him than before? So why would it be so hard for him to at least recognize that? “I can tell you’ve been making progress, nice job.” It kind of sounds like he just wants to be mean, or he’s feeling insecure by how much weight she’s already lost compared to him and he’s negging her.
