How quick are you to judge people particularly a new partner? What are the warning signs when enterining a new, romantic relationship? Do you judge people quickly based on first impressions?

I am a harsh judge on hygiene.... bad teeth, smoker, any kind of BO. I am like

Next is a stupid comment... say something dumb or stereotypical... I'm out!

But if you make me laugh, or surprise me from the unexpected I am drawn to you.

My guy's "line" to me was "You have some clean feet, I would like to get to know you better."

and two years later he still tells me things that has me like

but in a good way.

First impressions mean nothing to me, never have. Its the shit people do after you get to know them and they're comfortable around you, so they may not be on their best behavior, that really lets you in on who they are and what they're about.

However, I hate people. So whatever.

2 weeks of hanging out and I'll know if you're a keeper or not.

And a big LOL @ your last comment. I can relate to that as well.

Yeah, I can't say I have special criteria but I've loved a guy like LOVED him for real after only 3 weeks. 17 years later and I haven't changed my mind

Does the master know about him?

are you asking if he is self-aware?

First impressions are important but like Cerebus said, its more important how a person acts after about a few weeks or so to see their true colors. Just by off conversation alone though, I can tell after a couple of hours if this person is going to bore me to no end or give great conversation. If they end up being a liar living in denial in a fantasy world, normally a couple of flags are raised within a few weeks...normally. But we all know the instances where you can think you know a person for 5 years and then all of sudden realize they are an ax murderer. Therefore, I just go by my instincts.

I was (obviously not a very good) joke , as in; does he know you're having some on the side for the last 17 years

Co-sign. You can never know, even after 10 years...
