Fake friends and fake people in general only want to take without giving anything. This person will never be around if they don’t have something to gain from you, and they try to use you in every situation. You may end up feeling drained from energy after spending time with them. Here are 6 things that are clear signs you are dealing with a fake friend.
1.An opportunist
This person will promise you that they will spend time, they will even plan the details and when the time comes they canceL or never appear. It means they don’t appreciate your time and your company because they have chosen another opportunity they thought was better for them.
2.Only talks about himself/herself
Fake people are narcissistic, and everything they say will be about them. Even if you are talking about something you are proud of, they will find a way to make it about themselves.
3.Constantly leans on you for emotional support
When you are the only person left that they can call, they will call you because they know you will not reject them. They are aware that you will allow them to waste your time on them because they don’t care about it at all. Their only goal is to use you so that they can feel good about themselves.
4.Gossip
They have something bad to say about almost everyone, even if it is not true. Gossiping is never good, and it tells you more about the person who spreads it than the one who is being gossiped.
5.Mocks you and compliments you at the same time
They usually joke when compliment you because they want to mock you in front of other people too. They still want you around in their life, but nevertheless they think bad about you. This is a manipulative technique that you must pay attention to.
6.Makes you choose them over your friends
Since they are so narcissistic and self-centered, they will try to make their servant and make you available for them all the time. This may cost you real friends, so don’t fall into the trap.
