Are You An Insightful Person

I like to think of myself as a pretty good judge of character, I don't pretend to be right all of the time, but generally I get a very good feel for what someone is like after a very short time, after a few conversations or emails. People have many ways of expressing themselves and even within a conversation there are numerous things that we all do that give away bits about our deeper emotional sense and who we really are. These could include things like eye contact, blushing, disticulating, a sense of using familiar language, expressing oneself in a more natural way, the use of language is very important, and the way in which things are said. UNderstanding that things may be said one way that are offensive or be-littling, or exactly the same thing put in a different context can achieve the same result but keeps people onside. I am by no means perfect, but people often say that I have good communication skills, even though I am very shy, I make a lot of effort to put other people at ease when I communicate with them. Working in a big organisation, I meet many people from all walks of life, all backgrounds, all abilities and I have to say that I am very insightful with the sorts of people that I would consider to be trustworthy, reliable, friendly etc. I don't want to sound too judgemental, but I think it's pretty good to be able to read people because it means that in order to work with them we may need to change our own behaviour as well.

well i usually am not trying to see or feel if they are hidding somthing from me i try to trust them but yes if they lie to me i usually track that very fast i am one of those that reads between the lines. and i usually know alote of things they don't tell me about before they share their secret with me. i do not know how this is happening to me but i think i feel people very strongly and i usually hear their inner voice when they speak to me, cause i do believe they want me to hear that and help them out. usually people that are not that communicative find it very easy to talk to me. and i did have a few incidents that i was being asked to speak with a person that had a problem and could not to anyone else, i am talking about a person that i never met before. i don't know. that's me. maybe i have a gift. but that's making me very happy. to help to people and listen to them.

Yes my friend I think I am , I know right away if any of my family are worried about anything or keeping things from me , Hubby always asks how i know , I can't explain it I can just sense it , Lots of people confide in me and although I love to chat I would never ever tell someones secret to anyone else , even my friends on the Internet ( some I have met and some I have yet to met ) tell me their secrets and seem to sense I will keep them safe , I love helping people pal and maybe this just comes across in the way I talk , xx

I like to think I am good at sussing things out .. but sadly I am not .. and deep down I know I am not .. I am always going to end up being 'duped', hurt and taken for granted .. it's just the way I am hehehe !!

I am pretty good and figuring out what kind of person they are. By talking to someone for about 5 minute. I can usually tell if they are trustworthy or the type of person I would want to be with. I liked you right away Wolfie. I could tell you were a great person. I think you could figure out my secrets lol. I could tell you one now if you asked . I bet you would say "Yup, i knew it all along.

Hi wolfie, I have a very deep intuition towards other people. I don't know how I was able to look through each threads I'm reading. My intuition will depends on my mood too. There will be times when I can easily detect if the poster is telling the truth or not. At other times, its totally blank. On a more personal level, its the easiest for me to know right away. I will observe by the way they talk, their action and gesture, the way their eyes are moving and the kind of words they're using. :)

Yes I'm good at sussing people out. I follow my instincts with people and they've never let me down so far. I know within seconds of meeting someone whether I'm going to get along with them or not and I can't think of any time when my initial feelings have turned out to be wrong. It's not unusual at all for people that I don't really know that well to confide in me but then I'm good at getting people to talk about themselves. The reason for that is very simple - it means I don't have to talk about me! I've often been told I'm a very difficult person to get to know and I can't argue with that. I'm not an "open" person at all. The bit where you asked "can you tell them straight away you knew all along?" made me laugh because that's happened frequently and I suspect it drives people nuts (or gives them the creeps maybe!) I don't really regard it as being insightful - I think of it more as being intuitive and trusting my own instincts although maybe that's the same thing. Interestingly (or more accurately annoyingly!) none of the above applies to my personal relationships with men. That's just one long catalogue of poor judgement!

I think I am very insightful when it comes to people.I have a kind of sixth sense,I just "know" when someone is being dishonest with me.It has served me well over the years.If I meet someone I know immediately if we are going to be able to be friends or not.I have seldom been proved wrong when I have decided for some reason or another that I just don't like someone.

I do think that I am better at getting people to open up than others, but thats because I don't push people on something, I just let them know that I'm there if they need to talk. I myself prefer others to confide in me before I do in them, I know that I would never repeat something someone told me in confidence, but I'm a bit wary of others.

I think that is one of my weaknesses I don't have much ability when it comes to seeing the other side of what they really ment. Sometimes I feel too naive and ignorant to notice it. I would rate myself maybe jsut 4, not too good. I always failed to see the secret unless they confess it to me. JUst one thing for sure I'm not good at it.

Sometimes i can read between the lines or holding something back, sometimes when I talk to somebody yes I do feel they are hiding something and not telling me everything because I am usually the ones that finds the truth in a certain person.If someone tell me a secret, I will listen and will not tell anybody since it was a secret. That's just me.

I think I am lol. And I am not sure if it has to do with my big ego. I do feel I can read someone if you just let me communicate with that person for some minutes. ;-)

nope

the insight is one kind of correct intuition judgement ability.first is sincere to oneself does not deceive self,believed own iutuition,raised own intuition ablility slowly to be able to have the intuition foresight ability to the contact thing. through practice examination,afer intuition judgement,had the real intuition judgment,the insight along with it production. this needs a process,i now do not have such insight.

On a scale of 1 to 10, I am 20 in being insightful to others.

Yes I am I have always been able to tell in the way they write I don't know why or how but I have and People are always amazed at how I do it lol I can't explain how I do it I just see it

Well Wolfie, YOu have raised a unique question regarding insightful person! But you know insightful person mostly does not say about! They are little like mystic and want to hide themselves because, otherwise people will be not easy with them! So this is for enough!

Sometimes..it really depends on if I meant to know something. Sometimes I might have a dream..or a feeling. I can become extremely sensitive and this can sometimes worki to every ones's advantage but often to my disadvantage because I often find out things that hurt me.

I think I am quite insightful and a good judge of character, I'm usually right about people so trust my instinct. Most people are hiding something if you look deep enough we all have parts of our character we don't show everyone. I need to know a person well before I'm really relaxed in front of them.
