Is it Bad Judgement or Poor Character?

Question

Nobody is Infallible, People make Mistakes, but who would YOU be more willing to trust?

A person who makes up a false story to make themselves look better to better their own means.

A person who can't make up their mind or is just confused or doesn't even know the the FACTS about the issues

....OR

Someone that made a decision or choice to befriend or associate themselves with someone that later turns out as being a person who you do not agree with and then disassociates themselves and cuts all ties to that person?

Answer 1

Someone with bad judgement may only be inexperienced in life.  I suppose I would be able to trust that person IF they were open to leaning from their mistakes. The person of bad character, on the other hand, brings to mind those who use and manipulate others to suit their own interests.  I do not trust this type.  In both cases, it takes time to get to know someone to know if either of these applies.  

In the final analysis, I follow my own judgement.

Answer 2

most POOR CHARACTERS have BAD JUDGEMENT

Answer 3

Assume everyone is a shyster and allow them to prove otherwise.
