Do you try to impress someone you just knew?

I do my utmost to just be myself. When I was in my teens though, I think like every other male, I would try and impress my peers and potential girlfriends. I think that was just hormones and nature taking its course. I learned the "hard way" that it didn't really work. Being myself seemed to produce more meaningful relationships.:-)

Nope I sure don't unless its for a job lol But in my personal life nope.... its take it or leave it with me. I made the mistake of doing stuff to make my husband love me and now its blowing up in my face. I cannot be who I am with him now and we are constantly having problems now. In Hindsight I see I should have done a few things differently.

I try to just be myself, but at the same time impress them with my good qualities. I like to come of as an interesting person, but at the same time I can be quite anti-social. So when I meet new people I try to hide that fact, and enhance my interesting or pleasant traits.

I think at one point of time. But not now. I want to be real myself. Talk and behave naturally.

It is no good to impress others. I don't think it will be better in the long run as the truth comes out eventually.

I agree with you. I don't really try to impress anyone by doing anything I wouldn't do on a regular basis. First impressions are the staying impression for me and if I meet someone who tries to hard to be something, that's usually not a good sign. a first impression should always be the true impression.

Yeah I do believe in that phrase "your first impression is your last" specially for those you have just met and find them quite attractive.

Any ways I have been in such situtations a lot of times before, I have always tried to put the best foot forward. I mean I never tried to be what I am not but have always tried to put forward the best in me in the best way possible. Like no would like to seem their dumbest to those special attractive ones atleast. I won't try to annoy any one with a stupid kind of behaviour which people usually get into when they try to over exagarate what they are or if they try to just show off. I believe the best way to get noticed is to notice and learn.

I do notice people and so I always stay away from rowdy and hot tempered kind of people. There ain't any good impressing them, no matter how good they look, they ain't even good for long term friendship.

Any ways
Take Care
May GOD Bless YOU

F course I try, and I think I do impress them! It is easy, just you have to do what anyone thinks you will do!

When I first meet my Husband he used to say just be yourself which I would reply why would I want to be any other way? The problem with this was that while he was telling me to be just myself he forgot to be himself and it was not till a few years later that his true colors came out! He is one of those, do as I say but don't do as I do, sad but true.

i never try to impress anyone cause at my age i realy dont care what others think of me Im happy with myself!

No, I am who I am and thats that, if they dont like it then thats their problem not mine..I am not going to change who I am for anyone..
