Do yall "read" people?

[midsolegone]

This guy I was talking to was telling me that you need to learn how to read ppl who you come in contact with because it will get you know if they are goodcompany or not. He waws basically saying let the other person do the talking and what they talk about let let you know if they are good ppl or not. But I thinkits bs because I believe you have to really get to know someone then form an opinion of them. So is there really a way to read people?

I can get a vibe for people but that's about it

 

[manbearpig]

first impressions are very important, so yes.

 

[awwsome]

I have a 6th sense when it comes to this.

 

[dakingii]

Yes i read everybody i have a conversation with. In one conversation i can know whether or not i would want to know u more or want to hang around you.

I try not to make assumptions based on what their demeanor, tone of voice or body language might be that day or at that moment. And a lot of time what thisvibe is, is just a reflection of the vibe they get from you. Some people act different ways around different people...eg. Men vs. Women. I do read people fortruthfullness tho..word to Lie to me.


I've been told I'm very hard to read....I stay with the same blank, aloof, neutral body language and facial expression. I tend to show more emotion topeople I know well (friends) or in one on one interactions.

I read people all the time. Normally I am right.

Theres all kinds of ways one can 'read' another. I'd say that most of the reading is non-verbal. For instance one of the most simple things is eyecontact. Does the person maintain eye contact while in conversation? or are they hesitant? normally people who are confident/trusting do a good job ofmaintaining good eye contact without staring. The ones who dont maintain eye contact could have a low self esteem or could simply be lying to you. Tonality isalso key as well. Most trustable people especially good salesmen have great tonality which basically sugarcoats whatever it is you're pitching. What theydo with their hands can also be judged as well. Are they fidgetty when in conversation? can they maintain good posture without moving their hands everywhere.Often when people are nervous they will move their hands a lot as opposed to people who are more comfortable with different environments will appear to me morerelaxed. I dunno if all this helps but all these little things add up and can help you make a better judgement on whether you can trust someone or not..

All the time, and I am very effective at it.

But I don't assess weither or not I should be around them right off the bat, although sometimes I should.

We all have our bad days...I'm not gonna completely judge someone based on one interaction.

You can know everything about a person by listening to them talk, and looking at their clothes and car.
