D

being asked your opinion by someone and knowing that being honest will cause hurt feelings

Explanation

Each situation can make it hard to decide what to do because different people, activities, or values are in conflict. You may have to choose which friend gets the ticket, which club or event to attend, how to handle friendships between people who dislike each other, or whether to be honest despite possibly hurting someone’s feelings. So all five situations can present a difficult choice.
