Why do people play games when it comes to relationships? In friends or in love.
Is it to hard to be yourself? Or is there a fear of rejection or not fitting in.When it comes to people I think its best when you can get the full flavor of a person...to find what the person is all about(GOOD or BAD)be yourself...if you like the person you like them, if not thats fine too. Just no games people!Let People get to know you for you. not what you pretend to be.
And look behind the face.

game playing is immaturity. Ive come across this many times in my life. The best is to sit back and get to know the person as your friend so you can know if the person is genuine or not.

I AGREE...people really need to keep it real. I've learned never to judge a book by its cover...I think some people just have a outer shell that you have to get threw(if the person lets you )and then on the other hand some people just can't tell the truth.

i heard a study from ohio university just discovered that people judge what type of relationships they will have with a person within the first 15 minutes of meeting them

I think I heard about that...But when you think about it that sure cuts out alot of people. You could be missing out on something BIG. Best Friend,True Love anything really.

exactly, i think this goes hand in hand with never judge a book by its cover.

you can't go by first impressions alone. some may not be the best at the first meeting but after they can be the most important person in your life.

we're all dorks so first impressions don't count to me

thefunkyfresh #1.1.1.2 thefunkyfreshFounder

that might be right, but i've totally misjudged people in the past. I had a couple of really bad first impressions of people in the past, some of them are my closest friends today. I think you have to constantly give people the benefit of the doubt.

I find that many pre-label people. They put them into some group or category based on what they look like or what they've heard about the person.
Example: I consider myself to be well rounded person... always up for something new, but it always seems to blow peoples mind when I tell them what my interests are. REALLY... can you tell what a person likes by looking at them. Ask Questions people
