Why do a lot of people judge others, and deny it later?

Question

Some even say they do not, because only "God" has a right to judge. Even only a short time after they just judged someone themselves?!

Answer 1

apparently you can 'bond' better with someone if you are b***ching about someone else... some people deny doing these things because they think it will stop the arguments(it doesn't and it makes things worse), others do so to cause the argument and some so they can dictate who is friends with whom...the most unfortunate part is that EVERYBODY does it its human nature to judge others because everyone has a certain amount of pride in them that makes people need to think they are better than someone else,

for example if you see your friend with a new pair of shoes, even if you hate them, you feel you have to say you like them-this satisfies your pride, until you have the chance to slag the shoes off to someone you know -this then satisfies your pride again but further down you know you have done something wrong...
but there are the lairs who just do this out of spite, and sometimes denying it just makes it easier, depending on the mood of the person in question of course....

but everyone judges whether conscious or sub-conscious of your actions, the way you talk, speak, dress and just generally act are analysed by anyone that sees you doing anything but people can judge in different ways from each other it depends what context things are in.-i appear to have gone a bit off track i think but i hope this helps :D

Answer 2

I think it has a lot to do with insecurities...same reason why people read tabloids and enjoy the stories about celebrities messing up their lives etc. Now...I wonder if there's a corelation?

The person who is unsatisfied with her life will want others to be just as misearble. At the same time, she'd also like to believe that the other person's life is way worse than hers so she'll find reasons to judge the other as being inferior to her, therefore she is the superior being.

Whenever you encounter judgment, just consider the source, or the person judging. If she's a nothing, then don't worry about it.

Answer 3

People judge others because they are so self absorbed that they forget that they are most certainly guilty of one thing or the other .Some people do it to make themselves feel better or to make themselve feel like they are on a higher plane or more superior.

Answer 4

This is a natural human instinct, to judge someone. I mean, we judge everything else in our lives eg. have i parked well enough, starbucks is better than coffee republic. Its normal therefore that we judge other people, but we always feel bad about this hence we try and deny it so as to feel better about ourselves.

Answer 5

People are fickle. We do without thinking and when we realize we are wrong, we are stubborn to admit it, so we like to think we won't do it again, so we say, "I don't do that!" It's not just about judging people. We do this about lying to one another and our true feelings, lots of things. Hopefully, at the least we find ourselves learning and growing from the mistakes we've made as we go.

Answer 6

You will/have found that most people who make it their business to judge others (unless paid to do it) are the most hypocritical of the bunch...and they are always "soooo right." Spare me from the burden of dealing with these people.

Answer 7

actually you cant blame it exactly on people b/c its so much inbuilt in the people these days that its kinda become a trend to judge others and pass opinion on it...

yea but judgung and then denying,i feel is hypocrisy..........

Answer 8

I have learned through my life to be judgmental of others is wrong. I will not even assist others unless it is to say if it was me this is what I would do, but you are not me so I can not truly answer your question.

Answer 9

every human being see him/herself doing everything right. so others must be wrong and here we start judging others without thinking, but I am sure that deep inside every one knows exactly that he is wroonnnng

Answer 10

Well i think ppl judge others because they are not sure bout them selfs
