There are a couple of women at work who irritate the hell out of me (for different reasons). However both are nice, kind, friendly people - so I see beyond 'my' impressions to recognise this. Just don't shut me in a room with them for more than 10 minutes, lol! |

Joy, mine were Virgo lol...one male one female...I thought both were trustworthy (if a bit 'weak') ..I was as wrong as it is possible to be...they were not trustworthy and not 'weak', they were needy, and would trample anyone in their path to serve their needs. |

Janet, I think the internet can give you the sort of essence of someone and they can turn out to be exactly as you think |

I think on here it is sometimes very difficult to judge.... for instance I might think person A is 'ok' but not know thenm very well...and then see that person B who I think is also 'ok' hates person A ... lol then I mistrust my judgement on both... |

Evening, Kay - I'm not talking about GR necessarily either - just generally really. Had a couple of experiences recently which have made me think I should listen to myself better;) |

Obviously it is different in real life to the internet....Some people on the net are completely different in the real world...Some are exactly the same...So there really is no way of knowing. |

That's a bit twee for me, Joy - I find, unless it happens immediately, that's a lot further down the road. |

I never got on with someone once on GR, then they PM'd me out of the blue wanting help to trace a "living" relative..........I obliged (cos that's what I do on here mainly) they seemed grateful for the info and then before I knew it. they stabbed me in the back by some wayward remark one night.......nice a?? |

I have to say that first impressions with me on several occasions have ended up totaly wrong. One example was a person I thought quite snobby at first, but we have ended up good friends. |
