I have done it a lot of times.....now I try to get to know the person first before I decide anything...and it's always based on their actions....and I have often become good friends with people I misjudged as well after finding out they weren't the person I thought they were...and it also worked for me in reverse..where I get to know someone and think they are a good person and then I find out they aren't....wine

No, it hasn't happened to me OFTEN but, of course, I have mis-judged someone..... I'm only human. It would be ridiculous to say I never have, I would then be the only one in the world not to have done so, don't you think?!

The key is to learn from it and attempt (and, yes, still maybe fail from time to time).... but ATTEMPT to not make the same mistakes again...?? I am not flawless, by any means, one can only try one's best.... yeah?

cheers

Sounds like you need to go about this slowly,
small steps at a time to regain their respect maybe.

good luck

I will explain myself once...if the person doesn't get it...so be it...I have been in your shoes too of being misjudged....and people will think what they want to think sometimes because they are narrow minded...I would move on...It's not up to you to prove anything....wave hug teddybear hug bouquet

kissmedeeply's advice is the only quick way if the person
you have misjudged will take your apology.

Yes I have, but try not to voice my judgements to often. I generally take my snap judgements and compare them to other times I have made similar judgements. I then back track and re-evaluate.

Though some of my judgements are boiled down to a generalization. Like, can work w/ this person - can not work w/ this one. Those are usually right.

Hi Lucky. Apologize, explain why you did what you did, and move on. They'll either accept it for what it is or hold a grudge and you have NO control over that.

Does this person know you have mis-judged him?
If so. could you face him and tell him that you have done
this. but later realized that you made a error in judgement and
tell him now that I know you better, I can tell how wrong I was.

If this person does not know, than just be yourself, be nice, but don't over do it.
