Default How direct a communicator are you?

Do you allude to meanings of things symbolically/abstractly or speak in metaphors (etc.) or are you straightforward and to-the-point in your communication?

The forum doesn't allow for absolute straightforwardness, so sometimes I have to use more abstract methods, but off the forum, I'm absolutely direct.

Depends entirely on circumstance and the direction of conversation.

I'm a very blunt person.

It's why sometimes I get myself caught in unfortunate scenarios.
