I could not continue because I felt it was unethical to lie. I reconsidered my words, and reconstructed my email. My next attempt was not a lie, but I still ended up writing misleading information. The letter was filled with distractions that would hopefully disguise the real message. I wanted to feel ‘guiltless’ so I knew I could not lie. In addition, I wanted to protect myself against any anger or resentment that I would have encountered for bearing the bad news. Ultimately, I understood that I was just trying to protect myself, and that was incredibly selfish. I also understood that I was wrongly assuming the actions of the other
