I sure have, it's human nature. But we can learn to not judge a book by it cover simply by putting it into practice. I once learned a great listen in my younger days and the lesson is "Always find out for yourself and not judge by what others say". I use to listen to my coworkers talk bad about our supervisor, it was only until I got to know her for myself that I would form my own opinion and she and I became good friends.

Some years ago I went to nursing school, and on the first day I met my new classmates. There was one girl that I especially noticed, her clothes, her haircut and her make-up were very different from the rest of the students, and my first thought was that she "wasn't my type" and I couldn't imagine becoming friends with her. I didn't talk to her during the day, but when we were about to leave the school I heard her mention the town she was going. I was going to the same place, and when I told her, she offered me a ride. On the way home we got to know eachother better, and we got along really well. A few days later we decided to form a study group, and we ended up becoming very close friends

yparson hi yes just once and I learned to my great'pleasure that not only did I love him but I liked him as he was not at all
like what I thought he was.the result we got married and spent
34 years together in a happy marriage. That was a happy mistake on my part. I don't judge anymore as its not worthwhile you seldom am right.
