when u meet people in the beginning they seem to be very friendly good then slowly as you get closer they seem to be a different person..or is it just my expectation from people?

By how they treat you

I used to think I was a good judge of character. But I learned that I made snap judgements about people, based upon how upbeat they were. Being that kind of person myself, I saw 'upbeat' as them being a good person. WRONG! Often, people find amusement in the misery of others.
Now, when I meet someone, I sneak a social situation or seemingly innocent topic into the conversation. How they react is a great indicator...

As you get older you begin to recognise that people tend to fall into certain "types" so it is quite easy to recognise them.
If a person is only capable of talking about themselves, beware. If they are only capable about talking about a situation in as much as how it affects THEM, beware.
I generally find that my first impressions are almost always WRONG... the good guys turn out to be bad, and vice versa. Never trust your first impressions.
But the eyes never lie. You can tell a lot about a person by the eyes.

Good question. I had a similar experience. You can't judge a person from his/her appearance if he's good or bad.
I was riding the bus, and there was a man who sat right next to me. He dressed well, he wore a nice coat and held a suitcase. I had no idea that he was actually a pickpocket! Luckily one of the passengers saw what he was doing, and he was arrested at the bus station.
Careul guys! Thieves and Pickpockets are smarter than ever nowadays!

There is good in every one. sometimes its just a little hard to find it.
You have to ask. What does this person really love?
If a person has love in their life and is positive about many good things he or she will give off positive vibes and will not be a bad person. ie. the more unconditional love, the better the person.

regarding detecting or sniffing
out the good from the worthless
in life.

Don't believe anything anyone says - go by their actions. They reflect peoples personalities far more than words.
See how they react to friends/family etc - thats how they treat people close to them - its a good indicator of what's in store if you get close.

No body is perfect - we are all good and bad at some point. It's human nature to be nice at first because we want to be liked too. If you want to date someone and have fear of what they are like...keep it light. Don't bring them over to your home alone until you feel that trust.
Perhaps you can elaborate on your question.

The biggest "cons" are the best "people people." If they seem too good to be true, they most likely are. YBIC

usualy it takes about 3 months before you realy "know" someone, that is when you'll start seeing the good or the bad. everyone is different.
