7 Signs You're Talking To Someone Fake

Seven billion people, fourteen billion faces. Heard them deep people say that, right? People wear masks all the time. Sometimes for good reason, and sometimes to create a image for themselves. Often you feel surrounded by fake people that you actually want to give a high five to right on their face for faking it so well. Those are the people you meet in your day-to-day life. They also come as your friend, but you just cannot remove them from your life, right? Life comes with its own misery. Either you fake it along with them, or nicely tell them that they are doing a good job faking kindness and then slandering about people behind their back.

Fake people's words are not reflective of what they truly feel. They will say one thing to you, and another, completely different thing to a different group of people. They don't stand for something -- they are just there trying so hard to make themselves look good.

1. They are the center of the universe. Start a conversation and they will tell their whole life story.

2. They bring negative energy with them and will always talk about your insecurities.

3. They want you to be there when they need you. But when you need them, poof, they disappear.

4. They will smile to your face and then backstab you.

5. They have all the time in the world to lie and make up stories.

6. They will brag about anything and everything.

7. And that fake laugh they do when they are around the popular-rich-I-don't-care-whatever group.


You cannot really avoid fake people, because usually they come as "friends." Sometimes you end up listening to their life story and internally screaming because that is how nice of a person you are. You know they're lying but still listen to them with a nod and fake a laugh that you learned from them so well. Deep down they are just lonely people trying so hard to fit in.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
