    no, I think you may be using the wrong word here. You can never be too open minded. If you are extremely open minded it would just mean that you consider every possibility. You can be too open to suggestion however, where you do what ever people tell you to...

    2 completely different things. Being naive is being very open to suggestion. Open minded usaully refers to quickness to judge (or lack thereof)

    Can't be too open minded. Life changes all the time, if you make up your mind about something 5 minutes from now you're opinion will be obsolete.

    Sounds like they're too close-minded, not that you're too open-minded (if I may say so without being close-minded, LOL)

    Some people would lead us to believe that they are completely open-minded to absolutely everything because they think it's hippy of them. Then they go around forums and say things like "You're not a very good hippy".....like we care.

    Nobody is too open-minded......that would mean that they don't care about anything or think that anything is wrong.
