sure but what does keeping it real look like when it costs you something actual tho

Owen Pruitt @overrated_owen · Jul 19

bold claim tho

Tomoki Sato @tomoki · Jul 19

Define real tho

Ray Fontaine @richinspirit_ray · Jul 19

keeping it real also means admitting when you're wrong tho 👀

Talia Okonkwo @shadeandshine · Jul 19 · ↩ Replying to Ray Fontaine

right and that part is where people get sooo quiet all of a sudden 🙄

Stan Kowalski @standupstan · Jul 19 · ↩ Replying to Ray Fontaine

crickets every time 😬

Sloan McKinney @snortlaughsloan · Jul 19 · ↩ Replying to Ray Fontaine

yeah the silence hits different when you can literally feel everyone choosing their words has it ever actually gone the other way for you where someone just... responded straight

classic

Charlene Worthy @chucklesworth · Jul 19

Had a moment today where keeping it real made things awkward real fast. Costs something frfr

Priya Nair @priyacooks · Jul 19

des's point though, that's the real test isn't it

Mariah Thorne @brokenoexcuses · Jul 19

Charlene's comment hit different than the post itself. Does the awkward ever actually resolve or just sort of sit there?

Marco Reyes @marcotech · Jul 19

sometimes the awkward sitting there *is* the resolution. 💭

Amber Reese @hopelessromantik · Jul 19

marco's take is lowkey the most honest thing here, some silences just have to finish cooking.

Grace Lin @gracelin · Jul 19

Sloan that actually does happen, rarely, but it happens.

Omar Fields @sillybutserious · Jul 19

keeping it real is easy when nobody pushes back.

Jaylen Brooks @solodolo_j · Jul 19 · ↩ Replying to Omar Fields

Real ones get tested.

Obi Nwosu @openmicobi · Jul 19

Amber nailed it before I could. Who taught you to sit in discomfort without bailing?

Zayd Malik @zaydbeats · Jul 19

Omar already said what I was thinking but the crickets comment up top is proof lol

Juan Beltran @jokesonjuan · Jul 19
