Ever took an instant dislike to someone and been proven right?

[Mumshotel]

There is a mum at my son's school who I took an instant dislike to. Sometime after her older children knocked my toddler to the floor running ahead of her. He was on the floor crying, she walked past with her youngest and instead of apologising or helping told her youngest to 'be careful not to fall over the boy'. She's basically Satan in my eyes now ha. I knew it from first impressions
Anyone else took an instant and unjustified dislike, then seen proof?

There was a teacher at my middle school who I absolutely instinctually hated even though every one else loved him. A few years later he was exposed as being a pedophile who molested many boys on school and church trips. He never made any inappropriate advances to me (I think he was only interested in boys), but something about him just put me off. (Very unusual for me to take an instant dislike to anyone.)

Yes. My DH and I used to fall out about it as he thought I didn't make the effort with people. After being proved right several times, he now defers to me!

Yes but it's also been the other way around. When I first met my cousin's new girlfriend at my wedding I could tell she didn't like me. Ah well, nbd. I'd always been quite close to my cousin but as time went on he literally stopped bothering with me. Ignoring my birthday but still acknowledging others. If I issued any invites I'd see he'd read it but would never respond. It didn't take Einstein to work out why. After four years of this I asked him privately if I'd offended him or something and he denied there was any problem.

After getting blanked again recently I addressed it and said I knew why. She piped up with a reply that totally gave her away. If I was way off the mark a normal response would be "wtf?" Instead she was incredibly rude, as was he and I've had to cut my losses and walk away.

I've never given her a single reason to dislike me but it can be pretty obvious when someone has a totally unfounded dislike of you too.

Yep, my sisters (now ex, thank god) boyfriend. I had no reason to dislike him but the instant I met him I didn’t like him. I got really bad vibes from him and felt he would be quite controlling.

He was charming and seemed nice to everyone. My mum thought I was nuts for being so adamant I didn’t like him. He turned out to be a physically and mentally abusive arsehole and very controlling and manipulative. Thankfully my sister got herself and her daughter away from him eventually.

I trust my instincts now! I like to think the best of people and don’t set out to see bad qualities but with him it was impossible to ignore.

One of my SIL’s, I knew from the moment I met her she was an absolute wrong’un, and I’ve just been (after 13 years) proved 100% correct, I’m not smug about it as she’s absolutely shafted and shit on one of the most loveliest members of my extended family and I hate her for it!

I’ve been wrong the other way too, someone that I thought was a really god friend who I trusted completely, crapped all over me, DH & DS by being a devious backstabber and telling blatant lies.

First in last out of work is indicative of a fraudster!

Or someone having an affair with a guy from security

DP has 4 sisters. I get on fine with all but one of them. Back when we first got together - 10 or so years ago - I instantly hated the eldest of his sisters. She developed into a feminist nutjob do-gooder and pisses of everyone else, including her own family. So there was clearly some vibes coming off her even back then.

I took an instant dislike to the Head Teacher of a school that DH and I went to see. Really felt uncomfortable in her presence. We didn't send DC to her school. Several months later it emerged that she did not have any of the qualifications she had claimed. Don't think she went to Uni so not a case of not completing the course just no qualifications at all.
Funny thing was that a while later I was talking to another couple where he had liked her but his wife had taken a dislike to the Head too.

I'm a really easy going person, but have had an instant dislike (for no apparent reason) for 3 different colleagues. One has left, I interact as little as possible with the other two.

Yep. My soon to be exSIL. She has a pathological fear of facing the consequences of her actions. Or such absolute belief in her own compass that she can never be wrong, even when everyone around her is wtf at the flagrant bad behaviour and nastiness.

I tried very hard for my brother's sake. As evil as she has been, I'm just relieved he now will be free and maybe find someone who can love him and not just themselves.

Those feminist do gooders, what good have they ever done

Yes and I have never ever been proven wrong!!!

True zzzz, in which case there are likely standalone incidences of “pain in the arse” that doesn’t include being a feminist specifically.

Yes a recently acquired fried of my DHs. Very weird in that he kept bumping into me at a friends party on the dance floor. Very aggressive and very weird. DH hasn’t seen him since.

Nice woman could have chronically low self esteem

IncyWincy

Yes. The wife of a friend. She is currently divorcing my ex. Fill in the gaps yourself.

I've tried to figure this out. I'm stuck. Could you explain, please

A teacher in my primary school, I must have been pretty young, but I remember seeing that the first kid in the line, when lining up after break had had their face far too close to his crotch for anyone's liking.

Bizarrely he was also my ds's teacher for a short while in a different school, though he left shortly after. Nothing dodgy might have ever gone on, I just remember seeing that and making a mental note never to be first in line. He also whacked the "naughty boy" in the class with a violin and used to make kids put their noses on a certain country ok no a wall map

AmIthatbloodycold I took it to mean the wife of the friend & incy’s ex got together while he was her DP, got married and now WOF is divorcing the ex.
