Is it normal to not like someone right off the bat?

This summer, my friend (let's call him Jack) and I have started hanging out with a new group of people he met through a friend a few months ago. For the most part, they're alright people, but there's one of them (we'll call him Adam) who gave me bad vibes from the very start. It's not like he's rude or anything, but for some reason I still think he's an asshole, and I could say a hundred different things that seem wrong with him. Jack seems to get on alright with him though, so I just try not to say anything.

Bottom line, I just plain don't like him. Is it okay, or am I being a douche?

    I was like this as a teenager and to be frank i look back at is as instinctive self-preservation. If you feel that this person may be bad for your life, do your best to stay away from them. Over time, you may be proven wrong but in the meantime, go with your instincts and don't get involved.

    Some people give bad first impressions. Me and my friends talk about this often (i.e. which of our mutual friends we disliked at first). My best friend, whose first impression was a well-rehearsed act, I liked for that bravado and I still like him now he's gone through being a mess and coming out the other side. Other people, who seemed great, have become not so great. And the consensus on me is that I'm very difficult to judge at first. In short, don't read too much into things. It takes people time to form a relationship (or work out that they really don't want to).
