If you are being true to who you are then you’ll be able to spot the fake ones. But perhaps you think they’re being fake because you don’t know enough about them! Perhaps they’re not always there for you because they’re not sure of your friendship with them? It’s very difficult to ever truly know as people are so so different and often have lost who they truly are to fit in! It’s often the ones you think are fake are just the ones that have a front to protect themselves! Decide what you like about someone and like them for that! One friend may be the one you can go out drinking with and then another knows your secrets but you don’t go out with them? Friends are people we like to spend time with and often we need to be friends with people because they need us.
To know if someone is true or not may be something you will never know until the shit hits the fan!
Peoples facades will always crumble and expose the true person! Just pity them as opposed to feeling used!
If your true then that’s all that matters!
I can tell based on values I discover along the way of getting to know them. Its not so much fake but compatibility to me and its not hard to see goodness.
if a person values heavily on asthetics. shit talking on others, very basic and lacking spirituality, shows no ability to reason when they are in bad situatuons, how they speak to people.. self centered behavior and thinking process.
I had a friend i thought was cool but after a month we started to party together. What I saw that day pretty much made me drift off. Anotherr girl was throwing up. We wanted to make sure she's okay. Instead this friend got all huffy and puffy and said "God why did you even drink that much you knew Im in a rush to meet this guy! now because of you its probably too late"
1. self centered
2. careless
3. unfair
1- They slip you some rancid remarks hidden as “jokes”
2- They always seem to play down your achievements
3- They don’t support you when you grow but rather distance themselves in the beginning then come back again to keep updated on your news
4- They talk behind your back
5- They talk to you about others negatively (all the time)
6- They give you fake compliments (sometimes)
7- They try to attack your self esteem
8- They try to steal your friends from you
9- They don’t tell you what’s they’re up to
10- They don’t like your posts on social media (Instagram especially) on purpose
Solution: cut the problem at the root. Stop talking to them.
One test I always put out there to test a friendship is this.
1. add on social media
2. When you’re in need of a friend make an indirect post.
(Real Friends) will message you to see what’s up. Truly because they don’t care about the world seeing their acts but more so how you truly are doing.
(Fake Friends) will comment, share or react on your post. It gives them a sense of validity without giving too much because a lot of us won’t go into detail in public of our issues behind closed doors
As far as platonic friendships just look for their need to invite sex into your conversation with them to better their chance at something more or just sex.

Fake friends are people you're constantly passive aggressive with or only see you as a source of entertainment
True friends tell you if they have a problem with you and are willing to work it out and don't just see you as a source of entertainment, but more. They're willing to be there for you, but also rely on you at the same time as they trust you.
You know a friend is fake If your scared to do something around em lmfao. Basically 90% of your highschool friends are just fake, as soon as u graduate and see em again, they'd act like they dont know you
You’ll know who cares about you, even just them checking on you to see how you are. But don’t overthink it, they might not think anything is wrong so they might not feel the need to message you , but some times they should check up on you whether you’re upset or not
There is no way to tell the difference until a crisis occurs. A true friend will stick by you no mater what. A fake friend will leave you blowing in the wind with your skirt up over your head.
When you're at your lowest point in life, the people are are still there, are real friends.
It's easy to be a good friend when times are good. It's harder to be a good friend in bad times. That takes work and commitment, like any relationship.

True friends are happy when they receive a message from you and respond quickly (don't wait days before responding). They are always willing to talk to you and meet you. Most importantly, they are willing to help you when you are in a bad situation - fake friends will just ghost you.
True friends have your back true happiness and pain thick and thin. Fake friends just use you when it benefits them. Fake friends never text 1st forget to hang out with you. True friends check in on you and send random texts to see how you are doing. True friends catch you when you fall. Fake friends watch you fall.
true friend are those who will ask about you how is in your life going without seeing you.
fake friend are those who never care about you until they accidentally met you in the way.
Ask them to hang out, if they cancel every time for months and also never call or reach out to you... they don't care about you.
Fake friends are only interested in what they can get from you. When you go through tough times the fake ones will drop by the wayside.
Fake friends will shut down or leave when you need them, real friends will not only stay, but they will be there for you.
Sounds odd but you know you have a true best friend when you can talk shit to each other jokingly and both have each others back.
Fake friends are there for convenience and true friends have your best interest and are actually there when you need them
Honest enemies, because can always trust to make friends but fake friends will use ya til your used up
The fake friends only stay with you in the moments of happiness, the true friends stay even when there are bad moments in your life
Fake are the ones that take your information and run. You can’t trust them with doesn’t matter what size the pole is..
True friends will stick by you when things go wrong...
How comfortable are they having a dump in front of you.
That's how I knew I had a pair of true friends.
