No, not really! I'm usually very quiet when people meet me for the first time - they think I'm a bit of a snob!
-
No, People usually think I am a lot calmer and more confident and maybe aloof than I am.
-
I think they have the impression that i am a drunk. I usually meet people at parties or the bar.
-
Good question, I'm not sure. I think so, because they either laugh or run !! :-)
-
I puzzle them sometimes as I am a little secretive at first.
-
it would be close to who I am, I do contain myself a bit when I first meet some one, most of my pals do say im very unique !! :), im a bit full on I guess........
-
Mostly not....
-
Not always..if people make an assumption without speaking with me first..then they usually have the wrong impression of who I am :)
-
no. People meet me and assume that i am this emotional person who is depressed all the time and never smiles. Once they get to know the real me they will see a whole other side of me. I am just very shy when it comes to meeting new people.
-
I don't know how I would know that.
-
Not at all, apparently I put off a 'tough' guy exterior, but I'm actually very kind and sensitive.
-
They should because I have no pretensions. What you see is what you get.
-
Oh yes, I am an open book !!
-
I think I look and act like a typical jock and people have told me that I should work on my first impression. When they get to know me they realise I am really not so bad at all. :-)*smiles sweetly*
-
I've been told by several people that because I am so quiet they think I'm a snob. Until they get to know me. We have had several laughs over this one. But them telling me this has made me more aware that when I meet someone I need to come out of my shell and talk to them.
-
They never do.
-
Almost never.
-
I usually don't stick around long enough to get to know much of what the hell anyone thinks. And even if I do, I usually don't care what their impressions are. I'm not here to put on a show, people will have to accept me how I am, or else they can move along.
-
never.
-
Not really, it takes time to fully understand my personailty. When you first meet me i seem more calm and better tempered then i really am.
-
I think so, never gave it much thought. I'm just who I am with everyone.
-
No - usually the wrong one and it sucks.
-
No, people usually think I'm a snob because I'm so quiet at first. I never know what to say to new people so I don't talk much unless they start talking to me.
-
A lot of people think I think I'm better than everyone else, but I don't. I actually think everyone else is better than me.
-
In my country yes... but here in USA with English as second language, also I have an accent, at work..customers sometime just ignore me or hang up when I try to take a call from stranger. I think it's because those strangers thought that I'm dumb that I won't be able to provide them with good service.
-
Well my first inclination would be to assume not, But that's probably because when it comes to me, I dont usually tend to give people enough credit. Im probably more pegged than I like to believe I am. Even though my answer is still, No.
-
"No! because I'm obsessed with perfectionism!!"
-
Not sure, on the outside I look like a normal person, on the inside I'm just twisted yet caring (Certain people only).
-
I don't think so.
-
No because i am very wary of people so can come across very offstandish but once i let them in im a very caring ,loving, loyal person who will be there for you through good times and bad.
-
Yes, most see past my eyes and into my soul.
-
I have no idea, because no one has told me in recent years what impression they have of me. Curse them! :)
-
yes
-
Probably 50/50 at first meeting but if we have time together, they get me eventually (and I, them).
-
apparently not. just got an inner office conflict resolved where a woman took compliments as disrespect. WTF?! Im just a nice guy trying to fit into a new work place- and figured being nice was a good way to do it. guess not.
-
No, I dont think so. People think I am a loser. The fact is I am an awful loser.
-
Yes, I am somewhat confused and that is often the way I leave them. You understand?
-
Most of the time yes.
-
i dont know what their first impression is?
-
Nope. Since I'm now a middle aged mom with failing health and settled in the Midwest, they think that's all there ever was. I did have an exciting career & life before children and marriage and they are shocked to find out the places I've lived and the jobs I've held worldwide.
-
NO, they usually think i'm "wierd". But, they come around eventually, and are thankful for it (I make a lot of people laugh).
-
always, they always think i am mean and tough.
-
No, most people misjudge me because I have one of those faces that look mean or angry. My facial expression when I'm thinking, focused on what I'm doing, when I'm not really thinking, or just calm and observing my surroundings gives people the wrong impression. After people start conversing with me,and realize that I'm not angry, find out I'm an easy going guy. I like showing people you can't judge a book by its cover.
-
Rarely, I cultivate an "ice man" image for emotional self-defense. +5
-
+5 nah i don't think so.
-
Yeah right! q:)
-
I doubt it - I'm always told how sweet I am. So I figure I fooled 'em again.
-
Most of the time I think they do. I'm pretty awkward all the time, like the I-don't-really-fit-in-and-I-realize-it-but-not-sure-if-I-care-or-should-attempt-otherwise kind of awkward. Although, people still engage in conversations with me so I'm starting to wonder otherwise..
-
Yea, I fall into the "what you see is what you get" category.
-
Absolutely 100 percent NEVER
-
Most do, although some people have been way off. Eventually they realize I'm not an @sshole, I just seem that way sometimes. +4
-
Usually not which is why its good to not make assumptions.
-
No. +2
-
sometimes half of their impressions on me are correct,,
-
almost never, ppl always get the impression that i am full of myself and later tell me o we got you wrong n all that..my confidence most of the time mks me look a lil too arrogant n full of myself.
-
Nope... I have known people for years and they still don't really understand me or know what makes me tick.
-
No, im shy with new people and people often assume im stuck up.
-
Never. Since I cannot understand the body language of others, I try to present a totally neutral aspect towards others. If that does not work, I try to mimic hostility. +2
-
No. I am an introvert and believe in treating others with politeness and respect. People's 1st impression of me is usually that I am shy, nice, and innocent. Somewhat true, but I am nowhere near as innocent as people first suspect and my shyness disappears once I get to know a person. People are often quite shocked when they get a glimpse of the real me.
-
I wouldn't say so. I tend to be shy, so I'd be mistaken as unfriendly.
-
No. They usually think I am some kind of a jerk or a punk. But I'm really actuary cool.
-
Yes. I am what I am.
-
i suppose we all put our best foot forward at first ..but really im pretty much the same..i may talk more ,hubby says i do
-
I hope they do.
