Do you hate people with no imagination?

Question

OK, hate's a bit strong of a word

Let me rephrase:

Do you get along well with people that are constantly rejecting your ideas which come from your mind because they can't imagine?

Answer 1

Yes i do. It makes me wonder at what point they lost the ability to think freely and see things with a child-like mindset. I recently read a question on here from a lady who was asking for help because her granddaughter was always asking her to play barbie's with her but she hated doing it because she couldn't be imaginative enough to bring life to the dolls and create girly scenarios with her granddaughter.... I mean, I just don't know how you lose that ability? What happened to cause you to be so serious and not able to just free your mind to the wonders of imagination? It's kind of sad actually....

Answer 2

It's not that I really hate them Cora, more like feel sorry for them. I mean, as a kid our imagination runs wild. As we get older our imagination doesn't disappear just takes a different form. I believe that some people do not have the mental capacity to realize this and thus are prone to dullness.

The only thing I really hate is people that get bored often. People who get bored easily have that tendency to not have an imagination as well.

Answer 3

One can't hate these people because various factors have led to this lack of imagination (see my answer on "Why do some people...asked by "coralicious"). They are particularly draining to explain anything to that requires imagination, and I would not have that person on a corporate or any board of management. I wonder if they actually dream at night? I don't think so, to the extent that we would. AAAGH, another question to answer!

Answer 4

I don't hate them, but I seem to feel better when they are not around. People don't rely on their imagination much as adults because they never fully explored their imagination as children. T.V. and video games hinder the use of one's imagination as a child and those children grow into adulthood without the ability to use their imagination to it's fullest potential. Imagination breeds originality and I really see very little of either in my life. I tend to not like people who refuse to be original because they have nothing to offer me.

Answer 5

No, not at all. People are different, that's what makes people interesting. Not everyone has an active imagination, just like not everyone has artistic ability.
Some people are leaders and some followers, etc.
We would not survive without the diversity of people and their own true talents.

Answer 6

Our lives are effected by the mirrors within our imagination and we create our own images by how the memories stored and emotions are felt, images can be distorted in time, nullified to nothing and archived but without the imagination we would be nothing more than an empty shell....

Answer 7

Since I'm one of those ppl, I'd rather prefare everything to be clear and may be explained in numbers if possible.

Since you might be the one with all the imagination... then you will have to try to bring ur point of view into a method that I can understand...

Got my point ?

Answer 8

People with no imagination are dull. If I know everything about a person in 5 minutes...it's no good!

Answer 9

I tend to have very little patience with them. Especially once I've explained and illustrated a vision of the future project at completion quite thoroughly and they still don't get it.

Answer 10

I don't think people can NOT have an imagination, may not be your idea of one, but everyone has one.
