I'm a bit unsure what to say, or what you're hoping for from posting this, but I didn't want to leave you with no responses.
I think speaking your mind can be a way of respecting people's feelings, because it shows you care about them enough to tell the truth. But I think there's also a difference between just saying what's on your mind to be impulsive and cruel versus actually making sure it's the message that you really think and feel and want to get across.
I think personally the whole treat others like you want to be treated is crap. I think we need to be treating others how THEY want to be treated, because we all have our own individual needs and views of things. If you don't think people are respecting or caring about your feelings, is it something you've tried talking to them about?
