How well can you read a person?

Pretty well. People apparently have trouble reading me, though.

depends on whats written on them .

I seem great at reading threats . . .
. . . not much else.

It's always a surprise to be disappointed. Why is that?

that hope business gets in the way of everything

I've decided that I'm terrible at judgin character. I'm gonna let my dogs do it for me.

Ive aquired a fair amount of "READ" over the years.

Sure as crap does!

Just another normal day in the fabulous life that is ME.

I thought i could read them fairly well but i have been proven wrong quite a bit lately.

Just remember, people are not books....even though it does more harm to burn a book than it does to burn some people

My ability to " read " people has always been a bit suspect.

I think I am pretty good at it. After a while the real person will show through, you just have to pay attention and listen to you inner voice!

What if the " inner voice " never shuts up??? lol

You can read whatever you want out of people and if people were so good at reading them like they are saying there would be a lots less failed relationships in this world.

Makes me laugh when i hear my friends say that they can read people like a book but they can never read their new relation and when it fails they don't understand why.

I generally can have a pretty good read on a person if there isn't too many distractions around us.

Usually my first impression stands.

I'll read you like a book.

(insert evil laugh here) ----> booohuahhah ha ha ha!

It depends but usually pretty well in person. I can almost always tell when someone means me harm in some respect. This ends of being a good survival trait incidentally but you also cant let it go overboard into the realm of paranoia. To some degree you do need to leave yourself open to vulnerability or it becomes impossible to meet anyone new or allow them access to your life.

I will fully admit to having trouble reading people online at times because I require voice inflection and body language to reach any conclusion about them or their motivations.

Before I become infatuated? Like a friggen novel
After? Blind as a bat.

Any questions?

Pretty well. Do I always pay attention, though? Not nearly enough.
