Definitely not. At least, not usually. Parts of the first impression may turn out to be true, but a lot of them don't. When I first met almost all of my current best friends, I didn't think I'd get along with any of them. I could not have been more wrong!

No because there is a lot more to a person than just what they look like or how they act a upon meeting them. They have likes and dislikes, habbits, hobbies a lot that you couldn't possibly all get in one first impression. Like they could be courious the first time you meet them but as you get to know them they could have some bad manners, or the way they really talk is completely different. You can always be right.

Definitely not. I can remember countless times when the first time I met someone, I absolutely hated them and after a few more times of seeing them, they actually turned out to be really cool. And I'm pretty sure that I've given some bad first impressions too. People shouldn't rely too much on the first impression they get from people, because it's impossible to really make a judgment about someone so soon.

First impression is not always right but it is very important to make a good first impression when goin for a job interview....reason being point blank first impressions always count on the job interview if u want to get that job.....But first impressions should not always be taken seriously....maybe gettin to know the person better would let u know what kind of person he or she truly is...

Of course not. That person could just be having a bad day or is really pissed at something that happened that day, but ti doesn't necessarily mean that he's a grouch. We wouldn't need to get to know people if first impressions were always right.

How could it be wrong? A first impression is by definition, the first impression someone gets when meeting you. It doesn't neccesarrily mean what they think of you, or that they've judged you, or even that that's what you're like. It's just what they first notice about you. So yes, I think it is always right because, it cannot be wrong by definition.

I use to but I don't think that way now. I had been told some things about this woman. When I met her that had influenced me some. Another friend knew the same woman, so we would see each other quite a lot. That was three years ago , she is now my best friend. She is nothing like what I first thought of her.

No. Because you can be really nervous the first time you meet someone, you can also be trying to be someone else as to please the person. So no the first impression isn't always right because feelings like nerves and anxiety take over.

No, because some people are really shy and may come across as snobby, but in reality, they are really nice. Its always best to get to know someone before judging them..sometimes really good impressions lead to really rotten people.

You never get a second chance for a first impression.
