Yes, I can. It's just how you respond or how you try to change someone. I think it's more of how YOU think. The more meaningful and thoughtful the influence, the more it effects someone's thoughts. I've influenced several people and I've opened eyes for several people so I can most definitely influence someone else. However, I can't influence you. Always respect the elders.:) Anyways, I would never atttempt to influence you because you influenced me with your questions! Kudos!

everyone has some sort of influence on you and other people and you have some sort of influence on other people as well...
...if you impose your thoughts enough and/or the other person is more of a "follower" or doesn't have strong opinions on things then you can easily have an influence on them...if they don't, then you still do just not as much (you might just not where you can see it)

I would have to say yeah, because some people are very good manipulators and can influence your decisions just by that, which can be both good and bad, depending on what they try to get you to do.

Sure the people that do this out of spite are ill, liars, and backstabbers if they are doing it and you know 4 sure they are and u confront them, then they deny it! Been thru this situation with co-workers. It's called sick little mind games!

Yes. Every pet my daughter ever owned she got to name but it was actually me choosing the name and she never figured that out.
