Girls, can you tell things about a man by his face?

I have heard a lot that women can often tell things about a guy's personality by how his face looks. It's definately true for me, like I can usually tell if a guy is an A-hole by his face.

You are better than I. I can't tell anything from the face. I can tell more by his actions.

Maybe first impressions may also give an imprint if this guy has the potential of being an A-hole... then later, I could deduce stuff out of his actions.

I could just tell if he has a wandering eye. Like when he keeps looking at other girls while he's talking to you. I am not really sure about that but it's really the action that shows what kind of guy he is. You could also tell what kind of man he is when you have a conversation.

I've never heard of that before. You know the saying you can't judge a book by it's cover. I don't judge other people because of the way they look because 1.)it's not fair to either one of us. 2.) there's no way you can tell what a person is like just by looking at them. What if someone judged you by the way you looked. They might assume you were a bad person even if you weren't how would you feel? When you do that to other people don't get to know who they really are just based on appearances. I wish sometimes everyone in the world were blind then there might not be as much discrimination as there is now.

I agree with the saying'you can't judge a book by it's cover'.But there's no doubt that a mam who's good-looking have more opportunity.

There are plenty of things I can ascertain by looks and scrutiny. However, it is also possible to be mistaken or to play on simple dislikes about a person's face in this example, and convert that mentally into bad traits of the person in question. Something I thought of when I noticed this discussion.

No, I don't think I could judge someone based only by their face. I would have to talk to them for awhile and even then, I think you could be misled.

hi megumiart! yeah, i definitely agree that there are some people who look like their personalities--because i guess our countenance really reflects who we are. however, there are times that i also end up judging people by what they look like, eventhough they are not something that I think of. anyway, i think it is best to really get to know the person better. i think we can better analyze people than how they look like. as they say, although first impressions last, do not judge a book by its cover. :-) merry christmas! God bless you! :-)

A mans face can tell a thousand stories if you look hard enough. I can usually tell what kind of personality a guy has by looking at his eyes and overall appearance of his face.

I think not. Through my experience, never judge a person by his appearance. But well, what you say is true. If a guy looks like a jerk or A-hole, he usually turn out to be really one. However, I've seen guys who look totally decent, after knowing them longer, they show their true colors. I also know of guys who look like casanovas but they turn out to be very faithful men. Most guys are good liars and they know how to deceive people through their looks and what they say. As girls, all we can do is to be more careful and not to be taken in by those sweet talks so easily. Time will show the true colors of a person.

I'm like you, I can tell, most of the time, whether a guy is nice, geekish, arrogant, stuck up or just plain mean just by their expressions and body language. However I'm not always right because it could be a bad night for the person and come to find out later that it was just that. It depends on the person too. I hope I made sense... lol

I would be a liar if I said I could do that. I have to just trust him and hope that in everything his actions balance what he said. Actions speaks much better than words and it is true. You see a person can rehearse and plan an expression and I guess the same can go for actions but I put this to you - how long can a person pretend for without showing his/her true personality by actions?

Hi megumiart, I do not understand the word 'personality' in your posting.Does it mean his looks,or his behaviour or heart. If this what you are talking about, only on one point i.e. looks, I agree with you. Rest of the two things can,t be measured by just seeing the face of other person, may be you may decide after watching him for some time. But one scientifical factor is there i.e. by just looking at some body's face one dislikes or likes a person. This is true.Some psychological factors make us to dislike or like a person immediately on seeing a person.Even science is not able to understand it fully. Taking advantage of this some people say they are 'face readers'( I am not telling you)and making money.
