Not even a little bit.

I don’t like lying.

You can "not lie" without being rude.

I didn’t think it was rude. If you ask me if I’ve missed you, I’m going to assume you wanted the truth.

But, they don't want the truth.  They want their ego stroked and I've had far too emotionally needy people in my life to want to play that game. 

I'm not setting out to be hurtful.  If I were, I would tell you my feelings without being asked.  That's being polite and kind.
SioCat, do you feel like everyone has a right to your private thoughts?  That's how I think about this. Just because someone asks how I feel about something, does not mean I have an obligation to share it.  I don't think it's rude to deflect; actually it's a matter of self-preservation sometimes.

Heehee.... can you imagine corporate life if we had to tell our boss every time you thought they made a bad decision?
