Red flags in friendships you should look out for: a thread
Finding ways to insult you while trying to cover it up by saying it’s a joke
Constantly faking on plans with you with little to no warning
Takes advantage of your kindness. The person that always borrows money but always has an excuse to not pay you back? Not your real friend. The person that has fucked you over before and knows that you’ll eventually forgive them? Again, not your real friend.
If you fuck with the person more than they fuck with you. This doesn’t necessarily make this person a bad friend but this specific person may just see you as an acquaintance while you may want more than that. Either way you shouldn’t be carrying all the weight of the friendship.
Feels the need to give advice in a very rude and condescending manner under the guise of “telling it like it is” or “just being blunt”.
Show signs of jealousy. Example: If they’re insecure about their own intelligence in comparison to yours, they may try to use bigger words to “one up” you. If they’re not happy about their own financial situation, they may call you spoiled. Whatever it is, jealousy isn’t cute.
Acts weird with you when they introduce you to their other friends or you get a feeling that they may even be embarrassed to publicly claim you as a friend
Talks to you like you’re stupid or unaware
They’ve seen you go down a dark or mediocre path & didn’t care to do anything to help you. This doesn’t mean that your friends are supposed to be your free 24/7 therapists but a few words of encouragement, a simple “You’re better than this”, or even a HUG is better than nothing.
You often find yourself questioning if this person is just friends with you out of convenience and not out of love.
If I think of more things I’ll add it. If any of you guys have something to share, feel free to add to this thread. ☺️
