Narrow-minded people tend to want to stay on one course of action. They are usually resistant to new and innovative methods.  Narrow-minded people may resist change or dislike things that conflict with their worldview. A narrow-minded friend, for example, may be averse to going to new restaurants in town. A narrow-minded colleague may be resistant to changes to your company's policies. While many people do not cope well with change, narrow-minded people may see change as inherently negative. A narrow-minded person may be unable to differentiate between different and negative. Narrow-minded people may be very opinionated about those around them. A narrow-minded person may be quick to judge others. They may also make negative comments frequently.  A narrow-minded person make quick and absolute judgments about others. He or she will lack the ability to see the complexity in human behavior. For example, you have a friend who struggles with her weight. When that friend is not around, a narrow-minded person may say something like, "I think the reason June can't lose weight is a lack of willpower." A narrow-minded person is unable to see how weight loss is complicated and will simply judge someone. Narrow-minded people may have a tendency to believe the worst in others. A narrow-minded person may say something like, "I feel like Kate was late to the movie last week to punish me for bailing on plans Saturday." Rather than accept people are just late sometimes, the narrow-minded person assumes malicious intent. Narrow-minded people are often eager to take sides. They are also eager for those around them to take sides. A narrow-minded person is likely to escalate conflict in most situations.  For example, two colleagues get into a dispute at work. The narrow-minded colleague may be quick to anger. He or she may approach you to talk negatively about the other party. Narrow-minded people cannot fathom differences. A narrow-minded person may be incredulous if you do not take his or her side in a conflict. Even if you don't know the details of the conflict, a narrow-minded person may say things like, "But you know what Jamie did was wrong, right? How can you not understand that's wrong?" People who are empathetic and curious take a genuine interest in those around them. Curious people may become less judgmental as they get to know multiple viewpoints. A narrow-minded person, conversely, may lack this curiosity.  Narrow-minded people may not be interested in the opinions of others. They may be convinced they have things figured out, and may scorn input from those around them. A narrow-minded person may not, say, ask you about your day. If you talk about politics with a narrow-minded person, he or she is more likely to argue than ask you why you feel the way you do.
