I appear unfriendly or self-centered when people first meet me, but if you talk to my friends, they would say just the opposite :P
I am constantly trying to a read a person when I first meet them. Since I usually put a huge wall and I don't find anyone that I meet very trusting, I'll pay attention to every little thing they do and say and make a decision on whether or not this person is someone I'd want to be around. It's funny how all my closest friends will adore this new guy they meet and after 20 minutes of knowing him I tell them that I don't like the guy at all. Then they're all "Oh god he's such a horrible person ;-;" three weeks later.
Some people say that you have to earn respect. It's not like that with me. I respect everybody fully, but if they have a bad first impression, then they need to earn that respect back. If you make a good impression, you keep the respect. But one slip up, and you gotta earn it back.
Hmm, let me see... no, first impressions never has mattered to me at all. I don't judge people very fast, I like to get to know them. I love meeting new people and therefore everyone should have a chance.

Anyway, I usually judge people 80% on their character/personality and 20% on their appearance. Appearances, despite what people say, have a lot to do with how you perceive people. If you see a nicely groomed, pleasant girl, you are more likely to have a positive impression rather than a chick that looks like trailer trash with dried blood under her nails (just kidding on the dried blood part).
I believe the care that people take in their outward appearance reflects on their inward personality, which is not always the case but in many times, is.
Otherwise, I'm one of the most laid back people ever. I do not judge people before I have at least talked to them for a good period of time.
I don't really care. I find out what they're like sooner or later anyway.
I don't judge people by the first time I meet them, I give them time to get to know them, first.
I hate it when people judge people without knowing them first, a lot of girls judge me before they know me. I have a lot of male friends, and am closer to most of my male friends than I am to my female friends, and when girls first meet me they usually assume I'm a whore, as I'm usually with boys. :-\ Although the impression doesn't last, so it's okay but I'd prefer it if people didn't do it at all. :jess:
No, it's not the same thing. Not associating with somebody because you think their ugly, is not the same as believing that facial features can be an indicator of personality traits.Quote:

The same happens with me, people see my dark hair (NATURAL KTHX~) and my dark eyes and think "ew goff."

You want wisdom? Something I've learned. It didn't take long, either. Looks have nothing to do with personality. Unless someone has "I am a racist" tattooed onto their face, you can't tell anything without talking to them.Quote:
