I performed in our Christmas belly dance show last Wednesday.
They're fairly important, but I try not to let the first impression dominate because I am aware that people communicate in different ways - I try hard to adjust for this bias.
It can be very mixed, depending on the day and the other person. I tend to do really well with fellow introverts and people who love logic. I bristle at the loud-mouthed know-it-alls, and it shows (and the feeling is usually mutual, despite my best efforts to keep my feelings under control).
