Do You Judge People?

We all have been judged by other people, and I am pretty sure that we all have at one point judged other people too.
So my question is, do you try to judge people or not?
For me, I try not to. Though it can be very hard since I like perfection. That is something I need to work on.
What about you, my fellow mylotters?

I don't judge people until I have spoken to them, and I have always believed that I should give everyone the same chance.
Innocent until proven guilty.
If they do something bad to me though, I shall have to judge them badly, and unfortunately I'm one of those people who can hold a grudge for quite a while before letting it drop.

Everyone judges people from a first look to some extent. If its no more than looking at the clothes to judge what type of person they are, or at least what line of work they are in. That's why it pays to get to know a person. Just because a person is dressed a certain way, doesn't mean that is all that there is to them. But the first impression of a person is the way they look and are dress, so to some degree we do judge based on that.

I try my best not to but sometime it gets the best of me...But if I do form a negative opinion of some one I am great at keeping it to myself...Everyone is allowed to there own opinion right? I just will not share mine if I think it might hurt someones feeling cause i know I am not perfect either...But if I form a great one I always share to boost there confidence...

Hi vampirekitten! In my own opinion, being judgemental is not bad. It's evident in people and we are designed to judge all the things that we see. Maybe you should take a look at the way that you deal with judgement and that should be really be fixed if you think that's the problem. With my personal experience, as all with other people, I was also judged oftentimes. At first, I was hurt. I feel negative about it. I always ask them that why should they judge me and not minding their own private life. But in one point, I take the judgements and I compare it at myself and I am self-checking myself whether it's true or not. After all, judgements that are properly handled can be helpful at yourself esp. you need that personality fix. We can't see our own mistakes if we are not being told with it by other people.

I think it's in our human nature to judge one another...Unfortunatly, many people take it way too far...If you're going to judge somebody for any reason at all, you should probably just keep it to yourself to avoide offending people for no good reason.
