Do you consider yourself to be a judgemental person?

Question

If so, why do you think this?

If not, why aren't you?


Me, I try not to be-and I think I do a pretty good job. If I happen to think of something judgemental about someone I tend to keep it to myself and not let it affect the way I treat or think of that person. Just wondering how others view this issue. :)

Answer 1

Everyone is judgemental by nature but not always aware of it. As soon as you see someone you form an opinion. When you hear something you decide if you like it or not or if its believeable. I think the thing to remember is not to always act on your first impression. Take time to reflect and understand. I tend to be pretty open minded and dont make rash decisions. In the end though we all rely on our judgements to make decisions. Lets just hope that they are informed and rational ones.

Answer 2

Depends on the situation. If someone is living their own life, breaking no laws and not doing intentional harm then I am a very non-judgemental person.

If someone is doing something that directly affects my family or myself then I have every right to make judgements. I can't change another person's behavior, but I can make the determination if I want that person in my life.

Answer 3

I think everyone is judgemental. What you do with your judgement determines the person you are. If I meet someone and immediately dislke them, I wouldn't say "I dont like you", but I wouldn't be friendly either. On the other hand, if they are cool, I may strike up a conversation.
The world is full of every type of being, and the world needs most of them. We need leaders to operate companies, we need followers to work them. And most of them are good people

Answer 4

If you are human, its impossible not to be.
The experiences you've had in life will always alter your standards for others.
If someone does something you wouldnt, you're automatically going to think they're wrong-and you only need think it. That's making a judgement.

Answer 5

I think everyone is judgemental to a degree. Anyone who says they are not is a liar.
