richmond500:
Most things u see is not their true colour, sometimes frustrations, annoyance, depression, lust can make someone act opposite of who he/she is. And u will say it's their true colour.

But these same people go back and regret their actions

What is Goatluck Jonathan going through to make him openly come out to support Wike’s enemies? He is just a worthless coward

When one is in position of power, that is when you see his true colour. If someone in power is still humble and cool, appreciate dat person!

In igboland, you're valued more in your mother's place.

You can even go to any compound to pluck fruits and they'll not say anything. We don't play with nwa-nwa in igboland.

I think truly driving shows a lot about a man's personality. I have always driven a car like a hit man. No patience. Dare devil over taking and all manner of nonsense put together. And I noticed as I grew older that I was fast in everything. I hated slow people. I complete sentences for people when they're slow. YOU'RE RIGHT. BUT am trying to be a better person now. At least before I depart this world.

1. Lend people money and you'd see how they're not credit worthy.

2. Live with people, and you'd see their true nature.

No such thing as "True color", all living creatures have different types of behaviors and it's all shown on circumstances.

You have an awakened mind..
The writer of these article na herd mentality bigot, and I do not share in his sentiments, there's no such thing as true colour ....
Why must true colour be attached to when someone is going extreme challenge? Or when someone achieves a new status or be in position of power ?.
Like why do people attach true colour to negative reactions and not to positive reactions..

8 Situations In Life Where A Person’s True Colors Always Come Out- Psychology

8 situations in life where a person’s true colors always come out, according to psychology


We’ve all heard the saying, “actions speak louder than words.” And there’s a lot of truth in that. Actions reveal our true character, more so than words ever can.

Psychology tells us that there are certain situations that really bring out a person’s true colors. These are the moments where you can see who a person truly is, beyond their words and their public persona.

In this article, we’re going to dive into eight situations in life where, according to psychology, a person’s true colors are most likely to shine through. We’ll unpack these scenarios and help you understand what they reveal about a person’s character.

Let’s get started.

1) During times of crisis
Crisis situations are like a pressure cooker for our personalities.

The stress and uncertainty can often bring out the best, or worst, in people. It’s during these challenging times that our true character is put to the test.

Psychology tells us that when people are under extreme stress, their usual social masks may slip, revealing their true colors. This could be anything from how they react to bad news, handle pressure, or even how they treat others when they’re at their lowest.

When you find yourself in a crisis situation with someone, pay attention. Their behaviors and reactions during this time can tell you a lot about their true personality.
But remember, it’s also important to offer grace and understanding as everyone handles stress differently.

2) When they’re experiencing success
We often say that adversity reveals character, but so does success.

When people achieve their goals or experience a big win, their response can be very telling. Some might remain humble, share their success with others, or even use their newfound position to help those around them. Others might become arrogant, selfish, or even indifferent to those who helped them along the way.

I remember when I got promoted at my previous job. It was a big step up for me and I was thrilled. But I noticed a significant change in one of my colleagues who also got promoted. They became dismissive of others’ ideas, started taking credit for team efforts, and their entire demeanor changed. It was a stark contrast to the supportive and collaborative person they were before the promotion.


3) How they treat service staff
They say you can tell a lot about a person by how they treat those who can do nothing for them. This is especially true when it comes to how people treat service staff.

Whether it’s the waiter at a restaurant, the cashier at a grocery store, or the janitor at an office, these interactions can be very telling. Some people show kindness and respect, regardless of someone’s job or social status. Others may dismiss or belittle service workers, showing a lack of empathy and respect.

People who are rude to waitstaff tend to have higher levels of narcissism and a greater sense of entitlement.

When you’re out with someone, pay attention to how they treat the service staff. It can tell you more about their character than you might think.

4) When they’re behind the wheel
You might be surprised to learn that a person’s driving habits can reveal a lot about their personality.

Driving is a high-pressure activity that often requires quick decision-making. And how a person reacts on the road can give you a glimpse into their true colors. Do they remain calm and collected, or do they succumb to road rage? Are they considerate of other drivers, or do they only care about getting to their destination as fast as possible?

In these situations, people’s patience, empathy, and anger management skills (or lack thereof) can come to the fore.


5) How they handle loss
Life, as we know, isn’t always smooth sailing. We all face losses and disappointments at some point or another. It’s during these moments of loss that a person’s true colors often shine through.

Loss is a deeply personal experience, and there’s no right or wrong way to handle it. But how a person deals with loss can reveal a lot about their character. Do they allow themselves to grieve? Do they turn to others for support or tend to isolate themselves? How do they talk about their loss?

Watching someone navigate through the pain of loss can be heartbreaking, but it can also be a window into their soul. It shows their resilience, their strength, and their vulnerability – elements that make up the core of who they are.

When someone is going through a tough time, it’s not just about offering support – it’s also an opportunity to understand them better.

6) When they are asked for help
There’s a lot to be said about a person who is always ready to lend a helping hand.

When someone asks for help, it’s an opportunity to see a person’s altruistic side. Some may jump at the chance to assist, showing empathy and understanding. Others may see it as an inconvenience, or even ignore the request entirely.

I remember when my car broke down on a deserted road late at night. Stranded and scared, I called a few friends for help. One of them, despite living on the other side of town and having an early morning meeting, immediately drove over to help me out. That act of kindness showed me the depth of their character and it’s something I’ll never forget.

Watch how someone reacts when asked for help. It can tell you a lot about their values and their character.


7) How they react to other people’s success
Success can be a tricky thing. It’s wonderful when it’s ours, but how do we react when it’s someone else’s?

This can often be a revealing situation. Some individuals are genuinely happy for others, celebrating their accomplishments as if they were their own. But others may react with envy or bitterness, feeling threatened by someone else’s success.

These reactions can tell you a lot about a person’s character. Genuine happiness for others’ success shows selflessness and a secure sense of self-worth. On the other hand, negative reactions could point to insecurity or competitiveness.

When someone shares their success story, pay attention to the reactions around you. You might learn more about those people than you expect.


8] When they think no one is watching
The ultimate test of a person’s character is what they do when they believe no one is watching.

Are they still kind, honest, and respectful when there’s no audience to impress? Or do they behave differently when they think they’re not being observed?

This can be very telling. A person’s actions in these moments are a reflection of their true character, unfiltered and genuine.

It’s not just about how people treat us or how they behave in certain situations. It’s also about what they do when they think no one is watching. That’s when their true colors really shine through.

You have to maintain your steeze even if the going gets tough, you should not always let situation alter your mood and make you a monster when you are broke.
