When your mad.

So people say that when they are mad they say things they do no mean. Is that true?

Because I dont think so at all. I think that when you are mad the anger has built up inside you that you blurt out TRUTHS.

Exactly that. You tell people their...

flaws their bad habits their looks etc. Does anyone else agree or disagree?

I aggree with you.
The person might regret saying what they did, but they probably meant it, at least at the time.
Never say something you don't mean.

Something said when mad, regardless if it's a truth or not...is something that cannot be taken back (the damage is done), nor is it something that would be said at an unheated moment (MOST of our lives are not spent in a fit of anger)...Humans do regret what they've said when mad...and sometimes they pay for it for life...restraint of tongue is a virture.

Truth should be used as a helper...and honesty is usually the way to go...BUT, truth should not be used as a club to beat someone down...and unbridled honesty shouldn't be used as a justification to hurt others.

I disagree in a way. Sometimes you say how you honestly feel, but it comes out the wrong way. I also think sometimes people get caught up in their anger that they say things unessary or take it out on the wrong people.

I think that is sometimes true, you blurt out your own selfish thoughts without considering anything... and sometimes you want to think that you dont mean it, but subconsciously you do thats why you said it--its the same with harmful joking.
but I think that its a way to let out pent-up selfishness... a *part* of them might mean it, but not *all* of them you gotta keep that in mind--its the cynical and a$$-hole side of them talking and theres more to the person then that. when pple blurt things out in anger I think its a way to defend themselves and thats their sole reason for saying it is for self-protection. if you insult them they'll wanna insult you back
and it might come out just so that they can get it out... but the person recieving it may misinterpret and misunderstand exactly what it is he/she's trying to say.
I gues it depends on the situation and the person ^^

Not necessarily... Sometimes when you're mad you say things just to hurt the other person. Doesnt mean you actually feel that way...

That's not always the case, I know my ex used to say really mean things when we got in a fight and even to this day he apologizes and says he still loves me. I know for me I tend to blurt out the truth but not everyone does.

In a way I agree with you, a lot of people say true things but they embellish them a bit. They blurt them out without thinking to the point where what they're saying is cruel. Other's just want to hurt the other person so they make things up. It all depends on the person and how they're feeling at that moment.
