First Impressions

Adapted from Google

 They say that “beauty is in the eye of the beholder”, which in mere fact is true. It could be said that in that moment when two people’s eyes meet, the beholder has established an impression upon the other. First impressions create a connection between two people, these days it takes at least 3 seconds for an impression to be established in which the beholder has initially created an opinion about that person. Whether it is based on the hair colour of the person, their smile or even their eyes all these visual attributes determine whether one has shown interest in a person or merely just walked past without any consideration of wanting to get to know that person. Every person generally has certain characteristics they want in their partner however these first impressions can either be positive or negative. One of the disadvantages of being single is misjudging a person when making that first impression.

I met a guy during the week and my first impression was that I generally thought this guy was cute, so I turned to a friend of mine and said wow that guy is attractive. She had suggested that we go talk to him. When we had walked up to him the first impression I had thought  was that he seemed to be pleasant however to my surprise he had given off the impression that he wasn't as polite as I thought in fact he seemed to be the complete opposite. The point made here is that because I had created an expectation about him, I had assumed that he was a nice guy and we probably both had created first impression about each other. Whether we like it or not everyone has expectation when it comes to a person, it’s called being human. The single life can be tricky but it allows us to know what we want instead of just settling for any person that enters our life. Whether it is 3 or 5 seconds one is allowed to make numerous connections whether it is right or even wrong. That is the beauty about being SINGLE….so next time you look in the mirror and ask yourself why am I single, just think you’re free to make as many first impression as you like.
