First Impressions
Ever had a love
at first sight encounter? Totally captured by
her beauty the first time you laid your eyes on
her? Having sleepless nights thinking about her?
That first impression she left with you was sure
astonishing wasn’t it?
The first impression you give plays a very important
part in the blooming of a love relationship. It
determines the ever possibility of a development
of the relationship. Would you fall in love with
someone whom you don’t have any good impression
at all? The chances are, if you have a bad impression
of someone, it is very likely that the more you
see him the more you will dislike him. It is very
hard to change one’s thinking once it is set in
his mind. It will need a lot of time and regular
communication between both to break down that
wall. So even if you can’t impress that special
someone the very first time, make sure you will
not displease him or her. You can still work on
your chances at a later time.
How can you impress someone? Well, you may be
the kindest soul, so helpful; caring, fun loving
and easy going whom all your friends enjoy your
presence. But does that someone know? No, if there
are no chances of both of you going out together,
going out on a date, there’s no way he or she
will ever get to know you more. You have got to
make that someone notice you, make your presence
be known. You got to first impress him or her!
Very naturally, humans tend to make judgment of
another just by their very first acquaintance
with the person. Decisions were made almost at
that very moment of your job interview? Your physical
appearance, the way you talk, all your little
behaviors you show, will decide what kind of a
person you are to them and this impression is
going to be set in their mind unless some thing
or someone changes it.
So what can you do? What should you take note
of? First of all, your appearance of course. Your
physical appearance is the very the first thing
that catches a person’s eyes. Put on your very
best look! But do however dress appropriately.
If you are going for a ball, you will not go in
your jeans and tee and if you are going for a
barbeque, for heaven’s sake, please don’t go in
your tuxedo or suits. Other than your physical
appearance, you have to also be careful with all
your little actions, the way you speak, the way
you eat, the way you look at others etc.
Look for chance to strike a conversation with
that someone. If not a personal one, a little
group conversation will be good. Try to participate
in the conversation, getting his or her attention.
Look into the eyes, drop him or her a nice warm
smile. Let that someone know that his or her presence
is felt, being felt by you. A smile with the right
eye contact at the right timing can sometimes
works wonder than to words. But please, keep the
conversations entertaining. If you are bad with
jokes, don’t try it! Don’t risk making yourself
a clown.
For guys, show your gentlemanliness, hold the
door for her, offer seat to her; offer her a ride
home etc. But remember, be natural, take things
slowly, don’t overdo it and scare her off the
very first time.
For girls? Well, you always got a little more
privilege. Just be sure not to make yourself look
unfriendly. Smile, look him in the eyes and drop
him a nice little sweet smile of yours. Do you
know that your smile is enough to melt a man’s
heart?
Well all these little things count, your little
efforts will pay off. Nonetheless, it’s always
good to leave people with a good impression of
yourself rather than a bad one, isn’t it?
