First impression I have about a person is always the person traits and I don’t joke with those. So yes, I believe in this quote.

Nice and great quote. First impression last longer. So therefore I will always judge based on the first day attributes. Thanks for sharing this Tom.

Well said by Maya. Believing them for who they are will actually help the relationship from fading away. Nice quote from Maya Angelou

Yes right because that might just be what they are truly are . I don’t doubt such character because character is like pregnancy you can’t hide it for long.

It’s not common that people show who they really are. So when they do, believe them the first time.

This quote is all about perception. I find it very insightful.

This quote in a way tells us not to have pre conceived notions about people. Unfortunately many people find this hard to do.
Daphne
This quote is about allowing a person to demonstrate who they really are, and believing them, the first time. Thanks for the lovely quote Tom!

Great statement that definitely stresses the importance of first impressions. It’s always pivotal to exercise proper judgement especially when someone exposes them-self in good faith.

If you know them then yes. If not then this is a bit tricky. As I always say See me for who I am not for where I am from. It needs time though. Everything does.
