Have you ever met someone new and instantly liked or disliked them?

In high school I met one of our local television personalities through a television radio writing class I took. The man came in to help with the production of my script. My reaction to the man was something I had never experienced before or since, because the reaction was so violent! Just minutes after meeting the man I had to leave the room or get physically ill. It took every bit of strength I had to come back into the room and work with the man.

It was odd to me to find someone that repulsive to me, it wasn't anything physical about the man (he was well dressed and clean) but it was so overwhelming that to this day I shake my head over my reaction. I have met people that I haven't liked upon meeting them but not to the extent that I had in high school.

Yes this has happened to me plenty of times. Especially if they already have a nasty attitude. I will know right then and there that I may will end up having a problem with him/her. Although, I am not the one to start any mess.

I have felt this kind of thing, when I met my father's friend and immedietly I started dislking him. I don't know why. I guess there is some hidden power in us that interprets any person we met and scrutinize their personality.

Yes ellie, I can tell you that I have felt like this many times and I have been proved right also. This is what some call chemistry, or intuition or whatever, you now call vibes. That's all.
There are different names but all come around to one thing. first impression. It is always said that the first impression is a good one to decide if you want to have friendship or not with that person.
With some, you click well and with some, you do not click. I always keep away from people if I think I do not vibe well with them.

You are right, there do come some occasions when you meet a person and immediately your mind tells you whether to 'accept' (read like) him or 'reject' him. Some people are 'repulsive', you do not feel like 'comfortable', while sitting in their company.
Whenever I meet someone unknown in party, I give him an opportunity to speak (I do not speak first) and after 10 minutes or so, I make my assessment, whether that person is 'nice' to carry on or not.
Good Post!

Yup, there was times that i don't like someone when first met them at first time. I called it "antipati" in my country. Somehow, there's a feeling that i don't want to see him or being near him. And you know, sometimes those feeling are true, and sometimes it just your imagination. But mostly are true, your body gives response as you called good vibes and bad vibes. Your instinct warns you for the danger than this someone new brought.

yes, i also faced the same things as like you. just suddenly dislike about someone who just meet me for the first time. i think it caused of the aura that those person spread to the environtment. i know its not fair but i believe all of us ever feel the same situation as like me in this matter

hi ellie that topic lets me laugh so hard my sides ache.

Guess what, its really weird in my life. Some of the people whom I thought to be very nice when I met them the first time and have even longed to be friends with have gotten the real pests for me over time and I even regretted becoming informal with one or two of these people over time. I have also ended some friendships because these "nice at rirst people" were anything but nice later on to me.

And some of those where I thought, oh no where does this person come from what a weird or not sympathetic person I dont want to have to do anything with him or her........ some of these persons I disliked when meeting first time have become very valuable in my life later and some are my friends now

yes, i had. you can't quite do not know why but you feel that at times you like them and some you don't.

ya some time we undergo like these situation, 1 day i am travelling in train and i shaw a girl, and then i dont feel good about her i dont know y, but i am hate her.
