About Patience
When we start doing something, you name it, play a new sport, study a new subject, learn a new programming language...It takes a long while for us to reach a point where we feel confortable about the matter. Once that point comes, it is easy to forget that the learning took us time, and that we used to make mistakes all the time. At some point we forget we weren´t always good at it.As every social behaviour is learned, and not a genetical oomponent (we can argue about that, of coure, but at least let me say, most behaviours are), then everybody needs a learning time to behave as we consider correctly. When somoene enters a new enviroment, at work, a chat room, a group of friends, etc...they need time to get used to the correction rules created in that group over its time of existance.
I was not always granted with that patience myself when meeting new people, and know exactly how it feels to be unjustly judged, so I think I am pretty flexible with people in general, and I give them time to show what they have to offer. Sometimes, they have nothing to offer, and you can consider it a waste of your time...but I found the fact of knowing that someone doesn´t have anything to offer, a great learning itself, hehehe (call me a weirdo). I think giving people a chance always pays back.
Kisses and be patient (you know who you are!).
