I'm trying to word my question as best as I can...


How do you judge people? What aspects of someone's personality do you admire? What aspects make you lose respect for them? What does someone have to do for you to consider them a good person? A bad person? What are the qualities you look at?


Can you even define people into 2 groups (good person/bad person), because it's not black and white. We all have good and bad points...

Do you think people can be divided into those two catagories I mentiond above? Or is there always an in-between?

I've been thinking about how I judge others myself, and I still haven't completly formed any solid way of doing so. Usually though, I try and look at how that person treats others. I like it when people are open minded, and respect others opinions even though they don't agree. I don't like it when people try to force their beliefs on you and expect to change you. I like it when people are tolerent to things that they don't understand (homosexuality/race/etc), and have a basic respect for others. I might lose respect for a person who goes out of their way to hurt others, who are cruel to people weaker then they are/make fun of them because they are different.

I like people who are strong-minded yet not pushy, and open to new ideas. I like people who try to see beauty in everything, no matter how unappealing it may seem to be at first. I like people who are polite, yet straight to the point; compassion, understanding, wisdom and tolerance mean a lot to me, as well as intelligence. I like people who discuss intelligent things, not stuff about who's got the hottest set of so-and-so's all the time. I like people as well who are kind to others, and don't feel the urge to take advantage of others' kindness.

I can't stand people who judge you on your appearance, i.e. saying you're stupid because you look different. How the hell is someone supposed to change their genetic structure to fit in with what some stupid, arrogant pup calls normal!?

People who swear in every sentence, yup, I know I have sworn quite a few times, but only when I'm very, very angry or upset. I mean people who use swear words as though it's like a normal everyday word.

Most of the time, I reserve judgement until I am fully aware of what their personality is like.

I don't think it's an easy issue to judge someone, it takes long time to build a complete picture about a person and infact you need to work with him/her or interact to understand his/her personality. And then you can say your opinion about this person from the way he/she deal with things, the way treat people, the way handle problems and the way think, etc.

But at the end you will not reach to 100 % conclusion and you could also judge the person wrongly, thats why people should not judge others behaviors unless they are sure about it becasue it could be a misleading or misunderstanding between the two and will just lead to wrong conclusion.

Sometimes a person will meet anothor person, so he got a bad impression about him/her due to one reason or another, but after knowing this person for quite time, the first opinion will change 360 degree.

I judge someone from the way they interact with me and depending on how long I have known them.

The person may be known as a real good guy, but he'll/she'll always be in my bad books if he/she back-stabs me ... see, there are a few actions which are more adverse in my dictionary than the others ;)

The way they speak. If they swear and curse in every sentence then i think that person as rude and annoying. If a person thiks before they speak, then i like people like that. I do not go to the extent of calling somebody good or bad. or hating anybody. I say hello and be polite with those who are not really my type. others that have similar interests with me are ususally my close friends. I lose respect for those who severely back bite and lie about me. they are just losers. May God help them.

There is one person who is a true believer, one who is a pretend believer thus is a hypocrite,

there is a non believer who has noble and nice heart and can be talked to but also there are twisted nonbelievers.

four categories.

I would say the hypocrite is the worst and most dangerous.

Do you think people can be divided into those two catagories I mentiond above? Or is there always an in-between?

No in between. :)

Judging people huh?

This is a very tough question.

Personally I hate to be judged by my actions and faults. That's what people usually do!
CHaractor comes first. It's the way you communicate, conversate,relate and deal with people that matters

I have so much in mind, but I just cant seem to get them into words...

I dont think you can catogorise good and bad people.

How can I say this ...... what u see is not always what u get!

You should see whithin a person .. not just the outside.

You can never judge people by the way they look or what they did ...
I never judge a person unless i get to know him/her and sat and had a conversation :D :D

We can't categorize people into good or bad bcz i don't think theres really anything called a "BAD" person because each and every person has his good and bad bits so nobody's perfect we just have to accept people the way they are and i respect each and every person for who he/she is not what they want to be to impress others because i really hate hypocrites !

There's bad habit we have in Oman or i think in the gulf people judge others by the way they look or about what they heard of tht person just remember this every1 not everything that u hear is true ! but wht ur eyes see is what counts :D :D

I just hope tht this thread would change people's way of thinking and mind about judging people in the we judge people these days ( Looks) because looks are decieving :color: :color:

That's true. Especially with the way you dress. If you're dressed conservatively (sp?) then you're a good girl. If not, you're a bad girl. :rolleyes:

That's not right; to judge people that way.

What you see isn't always what you get.



And as for what you hear, usually the truth is always altered as the gossip goes from one person to the other.. and in the end you don't hear the truth about the person, and you immediately judge them and are quick to criticize. People shouldn't judge others from what they've heard from their friends. Everyone has different ideas about what makes a good person or a bad person.

mmmmh i am not a person who like judge ppl, you cant judge a person on how s/he dress but you can found out her her test on cloths :p I judge a person on how s/he behave with me and ppl around and it really take time to know a person :blush:
