Is it normal to judge others?
Yep.Totally normal
Yes. People make quick judgments about others all the time; what matters is whether you stay open to being wrong and how you treat them.
Your brain is constantly making snap reads about people—whether someone seems kind, trustworthy, annoying, or just really committed to that haircut. Those first impressions are normal, and they’re not always fair or accurate.
The useful distinction is between having a judgment and acting like it’s the whole truth. If you notice yourself making assumptions, you can pause, get curious, and treat the person with basic respect anyway. That’s not being fake; it’s leaving room for a fuller picture.
