Fake Friends: The Story Of My Life

Don't even get me started on how.

Fake Friends: The Story Of My Life
HuffPost

First off, let me start by saying in all my years of life, this last year has been the worst. I have never encountered so many fake people and friends. How one minute they’re right by your side and the next they’re gone without so much as a warning. How you thought the secrets you told them were just YOUR secrets, they weren’t meant for others and yet everyone seemed to know.

I’ve come across a lot, and normally I’m good at weeding them out. But this time, I didn’t get there in time. A lot of people will call me a hypocrite, they’ll probably call me fake, but what they think of me really doesn’t matter. What matters is why they’re fake, when you’re friends with someone, your lives kind of merge. Your days blend together with theirs and if you’re lucky, they become your best friend. You essentially become one person, and so you share secrets, things you’ve never told anyone. Or if you’re like me, you talk a lot of shit. Which I do, I can’t help it, but hey it’s better than actually going out and doing all the things you threaten to do.

When that person betrays you, it’s like a hole has been ripped into your chest, the place where they used to be and sometimes you don’t know how to deal with it so you lash out at anything and everyone. Which causes a lot more problems than it’s worth. I’ve come across many types of friends in my life and I can narrow it down to a few of the main ones.

1. Fake Friends:

This one is self-explanatory and it goes along with the title. They’re the friends who say one thing to your face and go behind your back and say another. They’re the worst kind but they’re also the hardest to pinpoint because let’s face it, you never really know what someone is saying about you until it’s too late and everyone knows.

2. Shit Talkers:

I hate to admit it, but I am classed in this friend group, I talk a lot of shit. However, I will walk right up to you and tell you the things that I’ve said. With me, you won’t have to find out from someone else because I’ll be the first to tell you. Regardless of the situation. Except my shit talking only tends to happen when I’m royally pissed off, can’t speak for others though.

3. Emotionally Unstable:

Again, this is me. I’m the over emotional friend and I’m always crying about something if I’m being honest. You could blow on my finger and I’ll start crying, I’m just that type of person. Literally everything upsets me. But these ones are also the best listeners because they know what it feels like to be right where you are right now. They’ve experienced it, they’ve felt your pain. They know.

Also, if you’re going to constantly make indirects about someone, be man enough to tag them in it and don’t try to justify your stupidity. It’s really hard to take you seriously and treat you like an adult when all you do is dumb, childish shit. But hey, if that’s how you wanna live your life then so be it, I’m not going to stop you.

Moral of the story is this: IF you’re going to be a childish, insolent chit. Don’t drag others into your drama because you’re bored. Or because you have nothing better to do, because I can assure you that they in fact do.

And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.
