"Honesty is a tricky thing because I will not be honest with someone if it will come across as hurtful. I try to find alternate ways to have the conversation at times. When it comes to related ethical issues, however, I am always honest. A 10/10 for sure."

"I would love to give myself a 10/10 for honesty but truthfully - nobody is 100% honest all of the time. I will give myself an nine because I always do my best to be as honest as possible."

I would say I am 9/10 because I always have integrity and tell the truth. However, I will not be overly callous when giving negative feedback so I feel sugarcoating what I say is important. So it would be dishonest of me to say that I am 10/10 honest :D

You've done well by rating yourself highly, but leaving room for improvement because even those who strive to be honest, don't tell the truth 100% of the time.
