I don't always get things right but the truth is very important to me. I always want to know what the truth is

Being this way is very alienating in a culture where most people couldn't care less about the truth.

Even your "nice" neighbor doesn't fucking care. Probably 90 percent of people will just say whatever is the most socially acceptable thing to say. They'll also lie without remorse in the workplace if they think that's the easiest path.
