Maybe it's just me. I'm not so hot at reading people so it could be just me, but I have come to realize that my first impressions are wrong a good deal of the time.
I look back to when I met my good friends, and I don't know if I liked any of them very much. Maybe I didn't dislike them, but I didn't necessarily think "this person is awesome and I love their face."
And I look back to when I met people I don't especially get along with. I don't think any struck me as people I would clash with.
Take my arch-nemesis, when I first met him, I thought he was an innocent man selling puppies. Nope, he turned out to be the most dastardly (what a wonderful word) villains the world has known.
Seriously, though...
In my wide and varied experience *cough* only twenty-something years so not very much at all *cough* first impressions have often failed me. And maybe it's the same for all of you.
So here's a test:
If your first impression while reading my small bit of blog is that I am totally insane...we are nothing alike. Your first impressions are spot-on.
If I come across as boring, mean or whiny, well then we should be friends due the similarities at our failure in first impressions.
Either way, I hope you keep reading, just so I have an outlet for my insanity ;)
