Top 10 Signs That You're a Blunt Person

Considering how I'm blunt, I figured it might be an interesting concept for a list.

This is a temporary detour. I'll get back on the music grind soon.

The Top Ten

  1. You hate small talk

    Either because it's trivial, lackluster, or just quite simply bores you, small talk is the last thing you're interested in. You want to have a meaningful and in-depth conversation with someone, which highlights authenticity and sincerity if you ask me.

  2. You prefer to get to the point

    You don't like to sugarcoat things or tiptoe around something. You want to be as direct as possible and make your position on a topic completely clear. Providing a clear and direct response to you is more ideal, and you express yourself in a very nuanced way by doing so.

  3. You notice things quicker than other people do

    You tend to notice that something might be off faster than someone else, and you also might be quick to point out red flags as soon as they emerge. You're more keenly aware of things as they occur and tend to pick up on things lightning fast.

  4. You are approached for advice because of your direct honesty

    Regardless of whether it's friendship advice, personal advice, or anything in between, people value what you have to say because of your honest tone. Even if it's not what they want to hear, you'll still be respected for giving your thoughts because they value your input.

  5. You offer criticism as much as it's warranted

    You don't criticize just for the sake of it. You criticize when you notice an error or something you feel is worthy of criticism because you know that criticism can help someone improve. It's not about tearing someone down but pointing out flaws in their thinking.

  6. You value nuance

    Nuance is an important value, and it highlights sincerity. You might not see things through a black and white lens. You might see things in a more grey lens, if that makes sense. You know that things are more complicated than they might appear.

  7. You dislike mind games

    Clarity is a good thing to strive for, and mind games only confuse people. They're not ideal because they cause others to question someone's intentions. A blunt person dislikes people who play those types of games and prefers more sincere authenticity.

  8. You have a sarcastic sense of humor

    Blunt people often thrive in sarcasm. It's not the biggest sign, and I put it lower intentionally, but I feel it was worth bringing up. Pointing out the absurdity of something with a dry, sardonic tone is a trait many blunt people have in common.

  9. You admire authenticity

    You prefer people who are genuine with their intentions, people who don't confuse you, and as a whole offer value to you. Whether it's a close friend, a family member, or someone who's not afraid to stand by you, you notice who's authentic and who's not.

  10. You are quick to apologize if you feel you've crossed a line

    While blunt people are direct and might sometimes unintentionally cross boundaries, they do apologize if they feel like they've offended someone. Myself included, actually, and I've apologized just as much as I've criticized, truth be told.
