- jtheory 16y agoThis is certainly not universally true. (Have you ever had someone take this approach with you and your life? Ignorance combined with an intentional lack of communication can lead to mistakes that can never be really forgiven, and lost trust that can never be regained.) That said, taking an option off of the table simply because you'd have to "break a rule" to do it can be foolish -- just be aware of why the rule exists, and what you're actually risking in breaking it.
