Top Ten Things Fake Best Friends Do

The Top Ten
They leak your secrets

True. In 5th grade during Valentine's Day, I had my first kiss, and this one idiot took a picture of it and sent it to my mom. I got my ass whooped, so that's why I never trust a snitch.

I told the girl who I thought was my best friend about my crush, then 5 minutes later everyone found out.

In 5th grade, I told my closest group of friends who I had a crush on (it was like 4 girls), and the next day, everyone knew about it. AARRRGGHHH!

They talk behind your back with your enemies

I'm sorry all of this happened, KianaLexi. Almost all of my "friends" have been nothing but fake. Some have even talked behind my back, which led me to not wanting to trust anyone at my school anymore. It's sad how hard it is to find a genuine friend.

I had done some scary things to myself and told her about it. Then my teacher was all up in my face, telling me, "A group of friends told me that you did that..." I was thinking to myself, "Who? I only told her..." I pretty much have no other friends, and no one saw them but her. I'm guessing she told her friends, not mine, that I did that to myself. Now people stare at me funny. Screw her and everyone else.

They don't listen

I think this one is the worst. Your friends are your pillars, your rocks. You're meant to support one another! They could at least try to be in your favor.

They leave you alone when you are in need
They feel jealous of your achievements
They never agree with you
They seem to be with you for their own benefits

My brother's "friends" used to do this. When they were mad or he did something they didn't like, they treated him like crap and wanted nothing to do with him. But as soon as they needed or wanted a favor from him, then they wanted to talk. Thankfully, he doesn't talk to them anymore.

This is something that will definitely get on your nerves.

They go out with your ex

Especially for guys, you can't do that.

Now that is nasty!

They are quick at turning you down

Once I had this Spanish class, and I made a friend. I don't remember much about him though. On the last day of class, we played some games. I think the game was bingo. If you won, you got a prize. I didn't win at first, so I took another bingo card and won a calculator. My friend didn't win anything.

A couple of days later, I got an email from him saying he wasn't going to be my friend anymore because he thought I cheated at the bingo game. I didn't even cheat! All I won was a dumb calculator anyway. What a jerk! I'm glad I'm not his friend anymore.

They expect you to drop everything you're doing so you can cater their needs

Now, this is something that will cause a lot of rage.

The Newcomers

? They care about their wants more than your needs
? They never reach out to you out of free will
The Contenders
They are friends with you alone, but not friends with you when someone else is nearby

She invited me to sit at her table with her "friends," but they were all talking to each other and not including me. I told her by text that I felt alone. She did absolutely nothing. She didn't introduce me to people, and they all seemed like they hated me anyway. One day, I walked away, and she didn't do anything or ask why I left.

You can be friends when you're alone, but not when others are around? That's bull crap!

How can you call yourself someone's "friend" if you're not going to act like it?

They humiliate you in front of people

My fake best friend would mock me with false stories about me to everyone. She said that I'm engaged to a Vocaloid, which is obviously fake, and told everyone I have 15 husbands. I meant 15 anime crushes. I know it sounds weird, but she's worse because she told me that she's married to an anime guy who's way older than her and would draw pictures of their "wedding," which is way creepier.

Besides, I was joking about the 15 husbands, and she called me autistic just because I didn't let her use my phone for her own benefit, like taking selfies and acting like she owns it. I'm not a stingy person. I just don't like people touching my items and acting as if they own them.

They make you feel guilty for not being with them

There is this fake friend who tries to sulk around me when I don't hang out with him. He only does it when no one else is around him.

They drive a wedge between you and your real friends
They make promises they never keep
They replace you with someone else without saying anything
They steal your friends
They flirt with your crush/partner
They fake laugh at your jokes

The question, then, is how do you know?

Maybe they just have a silent laugh, so they fake it so they can breathe.

They only speak to you if you have food
They spread lies about you

The fake friend of mine has always been like this. She would tell people lies about me to take everyone away from me. I honestly hate her with a burning passion.

They make you eat stuff you don't want to
They threaten to kill you
They walk away when they see you

Yes, I've experienced this.

They always avoid me when I'm talking to him or her. I don't know why.

This is a long story. Since I'm in 8th grade, on the first day of school, I had no friends. Then, two people, a boy and a girl, came up to me.

After two months, we became friends. But after five months, they started avoiding me because I made another friend. Then, that new friend also started avoiding me, so I was all alone. For the rest of the school year, I didn't talk to anybody except my teacher.

Sad, right?

This happened to me TODAY. When it was lunchtime, she SAW me but didn't say anything. She continued on with her "friends."

I'm not going to cry over it. They're irrelevant anyway. I don't want to be friends with anyone else I go to school with from 11th grade now to maybe college if I go. I'm tired of the fake, petty so-called friends that I used to have.

They spread rumors about you

That's probably why people look at me weird. She probably even told them every word I texted to her.

I never felt truly happy around her anyway. I felt no connection. When I find a real friend, I feel giddy and bright inside. With her, I felt nothing but tension. The same goes for everyone else at my school.

She probably told them that I was going to end my life. You shouldn't share something like that with just anyone, only with trustworthy adults. We both confided in each other, but then she went behind my back and told people that I had done things really close to my wrists.
