Has there been an instance when you just pass by a person or you haven't seen each other personally but you just feel like you don't like that person. I don't know why but I have this tendency of not liking a person when in fact i dont really know him or her.. Kinda weird. I don't like it but I just can't avoid it. Maybe because there are triggering factors like say for instance he or she sounds boastful or looks arrogant.. maybe.. i don't know. Can you please share your ideas..

I really don't read into appearances that much unless the person looks down right scary or intimidating but sometimes I just get a feeling about people. I remember once I met this man at a club. I looked him straight in the eye and it gave me chills. I felt like he was just down right evil. I get these feelings about certain events or places sometimes as well. I know it sounds silly. Maybe we have these irrational instincts as some sort of defense mechanism.

Absolutely! Sometimes we don't want to be so judgemental but like what you have said it's like an instinct that is driving us to think about the person that way. It's really silly but life's like this. i believe all of us has this tendency even if we admit it or not.

these are all just rude and suppressing behaviour aimed to irritate and nettle others to the max possible extent

I am also like that and i think that is really normal because sometime people action could irritated us. Things like smoking in non smoking area when there are kids around and allowing your kids to vandalise the public playground.

Your right sir.. especially if the person is acting really bad. It irritates me a lot especially if the person's doing is not acceptable. It happens anywhere and its very irritating to the eye and really annoying to the ear. If only i can go ahead and pull his tounge out but tha's too harsh and of course I am not in the position to do so. How I wish they should be responsinble in their actions as well.

I have been through this in the past, and actually I have an example today. I was at the supermarket and I was thinking about which till I should go to. I saw a lady serving at one of them, and I just knew straight away that she was going to be really nice. When we got there, it turns out that I was absolutely right and she made conversation with us, which is something that not a lot of them would think to do all of the time. It is nice to talk to people when you're out shopping, as it can bring a little bit of an extra smile to your trip.

Oh perfect. If only all people we meet everyday is as sweet and nice as that person. But of course that is not the case. There would always be bad things over good things and things are uncontrollable we cannot avoid people who shows negative acts that triggers negative emotions towards them.

hi there,
what you are experiencing is just normal. sometimes, i do feel the same but i am not dwelling on that much. since that feeling somehow gives a negative energy. what i am doing is just taking note of what i feel then taking extra care whenever i get in touch to the person to whom i feel that feeling. what important is, taking care of every action and words that i will say towards that guy.

I have that feeling sometimes too. but i do feel it once i see something that he or she does and i feel that it is bad or rude.. Even if i do not know him personally, i feel angry at that person.. Especially strangers who offend or hurt me without apologizing.
