We are required to ask forgiveness from all those who we have wronged in any way. Once we ask forgiveness from those whom we have wronged, Hashem will forgive us.

There are very few, exceptional circumstances by in which one would not be required to ask forgiveness. I will not enumerate them, for the simple reason that when there is such a person, your Rabbis will let you know.

at times is honesty and truth required even if feelings are hurt?
