| This is just food for thought and something to get us thinking and sharing, if I may??? Have you ever misjudged someone by first impressions??? Ever sided with someone, only to find out you were mislead and not given all the facts??? Ever give off the wrong first impression cause they happen to caught you on an off day??? Unfortunatly I have been guilty of all the above. :( Sometimes it is hard to tell the difference between instinct and emotions isn't it? Sometimes it is us and at other times it is the person on the other end not letting their true selves show. Someting to think about anyway? |

| I guess, almost everyone of us would have experienced these, as they are very common mistakes to be made. My experience says: Control ur emotions, ur instincts will be corrected automatically. [quote]Have you ever misjudged someone by first impressions[/quote] Yes, I have done it. Rule to break this thing is to 'never' judge someone in first meeting unless he/she is very clear and explicit otherwise. [quote]Ever sided with someone, only to find out you were mislead and not given all the facts[/quote] Probably, one of my very common mistakes. I haven't learnt yet to break this. [quote]Ever give off the wrong first impression cause they happen to caught you on an off day[/quote] Yes, this is where I am very very cautious and Alhamdulillah, I hardly rememeber giving anyone my wrong first impression. Rule to break this one is to control ur speech. Wassalam. |

| slm, [quote] Have you ever misjudged someone by first impressions Ever give off the wrong first impression cause they happen to caught you on an off day [/quote] I think all of us at one time or another do those things :( The problem,however, is complicated when you're dealing with people from different cultures. Things can be so easily misconstrued.Talk about walking on egg shells! On my part i always *try* to give excuses to people. [quote] Ever sided with someone, only to find out you were mislead and not given all the facts [/quote] My mom used to and still calls me the 'devil's lawyer' :o |
