Do you usually judge someone off your first impression of them? Have you ever given someone a second chance and you were completely wrong from your original impression?

Absolutely to both questions. I try not to judge on first impressions, but it's hard not to.

Yup and Yup. Mainly because you can be catching someone on just a bad day and that isn't how they usually are. Or they could be like that, the first impression definitely leaves a print on my memory.

It depends. I usually have a good feeling on someone when I first meet them if I will like them or not. Most times I am right. But I always give a second chance because I could be wrong.

I definitely have done both, especially with people I work with. I feel like first impressions are important, but I will always try to get to know someone better and give them a chance if that impression wasn't good.

My first impressions are usually true about people a few times proven wrong though.

I try not to judge based on first impressions however it doesnt always work that way. & yes I have given other chances but most time my first instinct is correct.
