Grammar
Correct use of "rather"
Could I use rather like this:
I didn't mean to hurt your feelings or to discourage you, rather, I just want to tell you the truth.
Could I use it with 3 things? I mean like that in the sentence, I didn't mean to hurt your feelings , to discourage you and then clarifying it by I just want to tell you the truth.
I hope you get what I mean. I just need enlightenment.
Thank you in advance!
