At times first impression seems deceitful because , I hear people keep complaining that somebody has changed and that he or she is not acting or behaving the way they were when they first met. First impression is how a person behaves at first sight or first meeting, at times not just person, it can also be how a person perceive a place or a thing. We have all in one time or the other heard people saying, "You never get a second chance to make a first impression. "
But to be honest I am not a supporter of that first impression ideology. Because you never can tell the mood you will meet a person, some people act base on their mood and it might be your first time it meeting them. A place might not look enticing from the outside but getting in , it might be a nice place .
I have a very close friend now, she is a friend that we discuss a lot of things together, plan things together both business and social life.
But my very first meeting with this lady was nothing to write home about, she was so moody, appears to be rude and not easy going. But I never judged her by the first impression. So after that day, we kept chatting just ones in a while and we started getting along. I get to know things about her and to be honest she is totally different from the first impression. A lady that appeared so rude is the same lady that can call you at anytime crack jokes with you and will just be so so free.
Now imagine I judged her based on her first impression and just ignored her after the first meeting. I wouldn't have discovered her good side.
I still know people who appeared to be very good , calm and homely at first meeting, but at a point they change. In as much as I know and understand that different factors can lead to people acting and behaving differently but I truly don't really believe on first impression but that doesn't mean that anybody should act or behave any how , because depending on people, you might never have a second chance to rewrite the first impression.
