Reveal Flaws to a New Date?

Question: Is it considered honest to show a guy your flaws when you just started dating? Or will it just scare him away?
Tough question, I should say.
Personally, it’s not totally about revealing flaws but knowing that you’re not simply acting a certain way to get him to keep dating you. Know what I mean?
Like what I read in the author’s answer, making up certain things about yourself can lead to catastrophic ends when found out. It’ll just be one lie after the other. I can’t imagine being in a relationship that will put so much stress on me. Is it really worth the effort?
If you reveal your true self and your new date doesn’t, er, approve then it simply means he’s not really for you. You need to be with someone who will accept your entire being.. completely. Oh, alright. That’s me being a romantic but, hey, I do believe that there’s a guy who would not necessarily like everything about you but would still love you anyway, simply because these things make you YOU.
Keep your chin up, sweetie.
