As far as I am concerned, our perception of others
can be easily influenced by some factors.
Primarily by what they show and act out( we are limited to these aspects on account of the shallow understanding we have of the person). When we get to know them deeper, and we start to apprehend their inner personality, we commence to perceive their real essence and automatically make a judgment about them. This judgment must be thoroughly considered given the inaccuracy our analysis that are based on nothing but what we can apprehend from the person, without seeing the world through their eyes and, as a result, with no understanding of what they actually feel whatsoever. Undoubtedly, all our perceptions are based on the appearances. Inasmuch as that is our first contact with the person - I'm not considering virtual friendship here. In this case, we are led by words and pictures that may not always correspond to reality. Ultimately, "small things" also have something to add up to our perceptions. Some tend to take it into consideration more than others, but never can someone not be influenced by them. They are like the indispensable odds and ends that everybody takes notice of.
