This is what i have so far!!!!
I assume that almost every person in this plant has lied once before. Even the presidents have lied before! I think that I would consider a person that has lie before an honest person. However it also depends in certain variables. Honesty is what makes a human bean a better person.
I believe that there are also certain times where people shouldn’t lie at all. A personal experience taught me not to lie unless it’s necessary. Last year on my birthday I decided to rent a party bus. I was very excited for that day to arrive; but at the same time I was also so stress out because I didn’t know what to wear. It had to be some thing unique, but that same time elegant. I had a friend help me out, what I was wearing that night it wouldn’t be something that I would ever wear. That night I taught it look good the day after I couldn’t believe what I was wearing.
I tried that outfit once again and it didn’t look good on me, first because I’m short and second I’m not super skinny. I don’t understand why people special girls have to lie this way. I totally thought that my friend was a true friend but after actually seen what I wore she wasn’t my friend. If I was in her place I would have chose something else. But did realize that was my fault. I could have not worn what she chose out.
However even though my friend lie she is the type of person that to be she is not honest. I do believe that my boyfriend is a honest person even though he has tell me small lies before. Why do I consider him an honest person even though he lies? Will it’s because I think there is grades of lies. The lies that he has told me are lie to surprise me with dinner, flower, lunch etc. Those are lie that wont hurt me or anybody else.

1. The thesis is that although people lie you still think that they are honest. if you tell small lies people can still see you as honest.
2. I think that if you had some examples about this subject it would help support your point in your paper. We have read a lot of articles in class discussing lying, maybe you could take some examples from there.
3. I think you did a good job explaining what you think about honesty and lying, but i think you could add more about what types of lies you think classify as honest lies or lies that are no longer considered honest.
4. You did you a good counter claim in your essay about your friend that lied to you but you thought was not honest. maybe you could say more about what type of lie, from Ericsson's essay that we read in class, to show why you think this.
5. I think if you get other peoples views on this same topic you could use that as more source material.
6. i think you might want to add another counter claim, maybe just a sentence before your example about your friend. If you just explain the counterclaim before you give the example the counter-claim will be stronger.
I think it's a pretty good start although i don't really understand the example with your friend. Did she lie to you? Sometimes my friends will ask for my advice and i'll give them what i think but they may disagree, that dosnt make me a liar right? I would maybe use a differnt example of evidence to back up your opinion, I do get your point though, it's a good point!
and in reply to what you said to me, Yeah i like to hear the truth from my friends most of the time, but i don't care if they liek about liking what i wear or not, as long as i like it. you know?
