> I am one of those people, too. I remember an old song by a group called Slow Children. One of the lines was, "I wish my face would not reveal me." I've had this problem since I was a child. I can't hide dissatisfaction, depression, anxiety, fear, sadness, happiness (though I wish that happened a little more often, as I wouldn't mind not being able to hide that!). And then I have the mouth to go along with it.

>Hi Beardy,

Yes honesty has been a problem for me along with not thinking before I speak. Though I have to say I have gotten much better in the last few years. I try to think before I speak and I am not quite as honest as I could be. Sometimes it's just better not to say anything at all. But I am definitely not able to act either, it's all there, all you have to do is look at my face. And I have found that most people do not want you to be honest with them anyway.

Okay I have to ask you, what state did your friend attend the party in? Has she ever mentioned the box theory to you!
