Do you believe that "First impressions last"?

For me, not always. It depends on the person's manners.

    No, I never trust them. I've been wrong many times with a first impression. I prefer to withhold judgement until I get to know someone better.

    They intermittently last, I suppose. There are traits I can associate with a person on a first impression, however they are capable of being dismissed through subsequent interaction. Such as being overly talkative, that is something that can be glaringly prevalent during a first impression. I'm an introvert so something like that will linger with me. But I would rather wait and see, but if it was an acquaintance vs. friend, first impressions may be the only ones you get.

    Depends how stereotypical the person is.
