Is my best impression made quickly or over a long period?

I believe the most lasting, and therefore, best, impression I make is over a long period. That's when people can begin to say, "She's always . . ." Or they say, "She would never . . ." You can't have that impression of a person without a period of time observing them. Having said that, I also believe it's important to make the best first impression possible. Some people will never give you a second chance if you've made a bad first impression.
