I think one is the reasons why people don't make new friends is due to the fact that most people read the characteristics of other people through their looks which is not wrong and not right at the same time because looks can be deceiving.

I also a kind of person that would certainly judge you by your looks firstly because i believe the way you are dressed is the way you should be addressed. But this is what happened.

Around december last year (2022), i was hired for a 60 days job at vinpy hotels which is one of the popular hotels at my region, i met this guy who was looking very generous and calm, i felt he was very peaceful and friendly so we started getting along as friends and i was enjoying the friendship then later i began noticing something strange about him.
He was being too caring to a point that he was almost helping me to do everything i wanted until the final day when he told me that he likes me so much and he wants us to get along. "Are you kidding me?" I asked myself.

At this point i began to feel his romantic nature that i didn't pay attention to in the beginning at some point trying to indirectly molest me then i now realised he is gay and i am such a guy that hates rubbish and I don't tolerate acts that brings down my reputation. I made it clear to him that i am no longer finding solace in the friendship.

I was never expecting such an act from someone who looked really peaceful, calm and gentle to be of such conduct.

I met a virtual friend on the internet, facebook precisely but she was always looking shy and more like an introvert until one day i found out we actually lived in the same community but didn't know ourselves so we decided to go out on a date to sit and know each other physically.

On the deal day, it worked out just as we planned. We met then I took her out and we had so much fun all through the day. She was being so matured and i began to wonder if she could be older than i am but i never asked how old she was because such questions might turn off a fun date.

We stayed out late at night and she found comfort within and around me that she started displaying her real self, looking for all sort of ways to make me feel angry and raising her voice behaving awkward and childish not minding such hour of the night.

I asked her if she was high? Or if she took cannabis before leaving her house then she laughed and told me that she just feels so comfortable around me that is why.

Another day in my life i met a very beautiful young girl named Trisa during my JAMB classes in preparation for higher institution. I'm not sure if trisa was her actual name or a nickname but she addressed herself that way and we were just acquaintances not even friends at all.
This was because she had a strict nature to guys and she always minded her business in class, hardly smiles with anyone and had no friends i even felt she was a military personnel because she's always looking too serious, strict and frowny.
I avoid getting embarrassed by a lady, no guy enjoys such especially in public places everyone avoids getting embarrassed.

One day i got moved and i teased her calling her a police officer all this was to get her attention and feel her reactions and surprisingly she was being so jovial, laughing and smiley which was the opposite of what i expected and that is how we got along.
I later asked her why she is always looking tough like a militant and she opened up to me that guys do disturb her alot so she programmes her face that way to scare of most guys.

It was funny but quite brilliant of her to come up with such a tricky idea that works so well to prevent her from being wooed by guys.

I have learnt that the people we see as strangers in our daily life are 90% strange indeed and pretenders until you happen to know them deeply that is when they reveal their true selves to you. Of course if you should meet me for the first time i will try to be of good conducts until i'm finally comfortable with you, this is why i said judge not a book by its cover, at least read some chapters from it before concluding your judgement.
