I Am Very Selective When It Comes to Letting People Get Close

I'm very quick to write people off. I can usually tell within the first five minutes of meeting someone if they're worth my time. It sounds awful and people keep telling me to stop doing that but to me, it's just easier than taking the time to get to know them and then find out I was right in the first place.

Can't blame you, totally agree :-) gut feeling is usually right.

If that's how you're wired then go for it, least you know for yourself if anyone is worth it n I imagine you know when someone sticks out. Who am I or anyone else to say if that's wrong or not? We're not you.

@olderguy: sometimes it is hard to tell yes sure, and sometimes it's crystalclear within the first minutes if I will get along with that person or not. It really depends on ourselves and the person we have in front of us. Some ppl have masks that they hide very well sometimes, I don't always see through it, and with some ppl you have this instant...click/match (or how do you say this in English lol).

But I for sure agree with making a selection and act on it. The speed....depends :-)

@pink I agree and even if someone were to do the same thing to me, it wouldn't bother me because I'm always doing it.
I can't speak for her.. but for me It's about how I feel about someone.. NOT how they feel about me.

It's not just you. It's everyone. You're just one of the few who admits it.

It's good to know there are people who get it. For a long time I thought it was just me.

@kellybear for a normal person,selection within 5 minutes is hard

Same. I've always heard that's what everyone does. Going in for a job interview, they know in the first minute to three minutes whether or not they're going to hire you. On a date, ten seconds determines whether or not a person wants to see the other again.
I know right away if I'm not going to get along with someone.

It's not awful. Time invested is time you will never be able to get back. Keep listening to that intuitive side.
