Is it true that the first impression is always right?
It is commonly said that the first impression is the most crucial one. Moreover, lack of the ability of making a good one can lead a person to lose any chances to start friendship. For me, it does not sound fair. That is why I do not consider the first opinion as the right one. It is essential to leave out preconceived mindsets and hasten conclusions attempting to make friends.
A biased opininion can blur a genuine personality. We are captured by prejudiced suggestions and stereotypes that hard to overcome. The very first meeting evokes the entire list of possible person's attributes in memory, which are based on our previous experience. For example, if a schoolboy had constantly been beaten by another one at school, who was jug-eared, past the years, it will remind him jug-eared people are rude. Although this trait has nothing common with a personality, the ex-student avoids making friends of this appearance. Thus, new friendship can be worsen by a prejudiced opinion which disguises in the first impression.
It takes time to get to know each other. While friendship is growing, people are investigating the facets of their personalities. In some cases, a person at the beginning will not be the same when he or she becomes a friend of yours. Furthermore, nobody shows his truly personality at the first meeting because people do not want to be hurt by others. As a result, friendship needs patience; rather than hastiness of the first impression.
