Cold truths are hard to swallow for a reason. They strip us of the illusion that everything’s in our control and that we know things best. But in reality, that’s not how things work, and who likes to be told that?!

What’s a truth no one wants to hear?” wondered Redditor u/grubbseuph11 on r/AskReddit and people shared some illuminating and brutally honest responses, like the hard-to-digest fact that “friends will come and go,” and that “no matter how likeable you may be, there are always going to be certain people who don't like you, sometimes for no particular reason.”

So let’s get ready to be hit by a cold shower that should make you rethink this whole perspective on our lives, and be sure to check out our previous post with more hard truths right here.

In order to find out why exactly it's so hard to swallow a hard truth, and how we should react to it, Bored Panda spoke with Susan Petang, a certified divorce coach and the creator of “The Quiet Zone Coaching,” who teaches women how to stop feeling overwhelmed and start waking up happy in the morning again.

“When we develop close relationships, we expect those people to be gentle with us, not hurt us,” said Susan explaining why hard truths are not pleasant to hear. “When they offer up a hard truth, it violates the expectation that the person isn't going to cause us pain. We want them to love and encourage us—but we don't always realize that a hard truth is being given to us with love and encouragement, with our best interests in mind.”

I have a professional qualification where you have to have said "sorry, I can't answer that question" to qualify. My boss primed the customer to ask something silly.

“Often, what someone else calls a ‘hard truth’ we call ‘criticism,’” she said. “If a criticism is true, we can agree and apologize, then work to make it right—or we can ignore and deflect it if it isn't true.”

Moreover, Susan said that when someone we care about delivers a hard truth, we should take that opinion more seriously, because this is a person whose opinion we trust. “I advise my clients to think about the intention behind the message. If the intention is to help us, prevent us from making a mistake, or intervene before we get hurt, it's worthwhile to consider.”

Susan advises asking yourself if the "hard truth" is really true. “Be brutally honest with yourself—remember why your loved one brought it up to you in the first place!”

“It's beneficial to hear a hard truth when we're hurting someone else, hurting ourselves, or not being true to our values,” she explained and added: “So situations that look like that would be drug/alcohol abuse, spousal abuse, child abuse, bad financial or career decisions, or dating someone married if you're religious.”

After the 1918 influenza epidemic came the roaring 20's which was revolutionary for both the arts and society, a similar thing happened with the renaissance, so who knows, maybe it will never be the same again for the better ( for those who have lost jobs/loved ones to Covid i am not minimising ur suffering)

Well, it kind of taught some businesses that they really can operate from home and therefore they didn't need their huge office building which can now be used for some other purpose. There’s also a more strict policy I think on coming to work or school sick. Before Covid, you went unless you had a fever. Now those with allergies that provoke congestion and stuff are staying home just in case. I think that Covid has taught us more on how to stay healthy and safe, some people just aren't accepting it.

Life will not be the same after WWII...life will not be the same after the Vietnam War...life will not be the same after the fall of communism...life will not be the same after 9/11. Life is never the same, we just use these milestones to define some general turning points, and even that is not necessarily true for many people.

Sadly it won’t change as much as it should. I was hoping that if we could get some things improved thanks to the pandemic it would be more flexibility at work/study and being able to do it online, better hygiene and the use of masks if you are sick. But things are just going back to normal.

Well obviously, life's always changing. It'll become basically irrelevant at some point however; we've had more severe pandemics and they didn't have an eternal mark on history. Never before have we had effective vaccines be produced this quickly - meaning we'll be able to goet back to normal quicker. Life will basically go back to normal eventually.

Not all of the changes will be what some expect. Many things will go back to the way they were. I think about this every time I see people talking about the death of the movie theaters. Many people still want to enjoy the theater experience. It seems like most of the people that say they will never go back to a theater weren't going to begin with.

Some things have never changed and will not change, bc we are people. When humans pursue good ideas they feel good. Even coming out of depression, or not feeling your worth you must "get up and dust yourself off" to feel better and get better. I am in my sixth decade now - and I look to others that make things (happen). We talk about learning wildcrafting and another language or, you know. Read the prose called "desiderata".

I wish more people understood the concept of "risk". You can totally be 20lb over weight and still be healthy RIGHT NOW. All it means is that you are gambling that you will be healthy tomorrow or next week or next year. It is also not a guarantee. If there is a risk factor that one in ten overweight men will have a heart attack, and you gather nine of your overweight friends you cannot say with complete accuracy which one of you it will be. It is a gamble - some people are happy to gamble, and accept the fact they may lose. But there's a difference between knowing it's a possibility and being scared into thinking it's a certainty.

Who hurt you, OP, that made you believe this was 100% true for 100% of people 100% of the time? People are complicated. Relationships are complicated. Absolutes about either rarely apply.

There are some people who just are NOT going to like you. And you will have done nothing to deserve, cause or warrant it. Its not your fault.

It’s not gonna be okay unless you make it okay. I often hear people say: it’s gonna be okay. Well, it’s probably gonna be okay, if you actually put the effort to make it okay. And sometimes, you have to let go, even the big things.

No. Many things cannot be fixed and pretending that it’s the persons fault is very cruel. A woman whose son just died is not going to be ok, it’s not her fault.
