I dont tend to look for either.

everyone has a good and bad side to their nature.
someone can treat another bad,but be equally as good or better to someone else.

Thank you Lesley 'cos I think people have forgotten the all expenses paid trips - the limo, the show tickets, the dinners in fancy restaurants.

I am not sure that I look specifically for either; but I do take people at face value initially.


PS what was with the peas?

Sally I know someone who is a likeable person who gets on with most people but we just don't click and I don't know why. I think she probably doesn't know either. When we are with mutual friends we talk politely and pleasantly but we aren't friendly. I think it just happens.

The problem as I see it about, always looking for the good in folk, is that inevitably you will be let down - not with everyone, but with some people.

Some folks will never come up to your expectations (as of course, we ourselves do not always meet the expectations of those we know/meet).

It's not negativity, it's realism: but initially we must surely look for the good side of everyone, because we truely wouldnt want to face evil head-on. How on earth would we cope with that?

I tent to sit back and watch and listen, (in real life) then I decide as to whether I am going to be able to get along with them. I am a fairly good judge of people. Most people I know are good people but I have come across the odd one that's not to my liking. I always try to look for the good in people though. xxx

Hi Caz, I'm fine honey. How are you?

People (real people I know) always say I see the good in people. I don't know if that's the case, I do see the good and that's what I concentrate on. However, I think I do see people's flaws too (prefer to call it that rather than bad) but I don't usually vocalise it or hold it in much significance. My god, I've got loads of flaws lol

Just something I was saying/thinking about today (which I won't go into) is making me question whether I'm more negative than usual and i was just wondering why.

lol Jean, I am lucky not to have met anyone I did not like in one way or another....

Oops, have to edit this because thinking about it, it is not strictly true......there was one lady who I knew and met daily, but for some reason I could not gel with her at all, and I was worried because I did not know why.......perhaps it was an animal thing....

They wont get a third chance:))

I don't look for the good or the bad - I wait, sit back and then see what the person shows me.

And then I make my mind up
