5 Signs Of A Fake Friend by Opinionated: 2:40pm On May 08, 2017
As you get older, it is important for you to be able to tell your friends apart, it is important for you to be able to identify and set apart the fake friends from the real ones. Jumia Travel, the leading online travel agency, shares 5 signs to help you identify a fake friend.

Your Friend Constantly Undermines You

This speaks for itself. If you have a friend that constantly tries to embarrass you and make you look bad in front of anyone or everyone, even after you have told, asked or begged them to stop, this can be a major sign such a friend is fake, even though the friend might claim to ‘just be joking’. It’s okay for a friend to embarrass you one or two times without being aware, but when it becomes a constant occurrence especially at crucial times to you, you should be careful.

Your Friend Makes Fun of You All the Time


The key word here is ‘all the time’. Yes there are friends that will jokingly make fun of you in a harmless way and there are others that will do so to belittle you and lower your self-esteem. Observe to be able to tell the difference.

Your Friend is Mean to You

There is no amount of denial that should prevent you from coming to terms with the fact that your friend is just plain mean to you. A mean friend typically tries to take advantage of you, tries to push you around, isn’t considerate of your feelings and constantly tries to belittle you and your accomplishments.

Your Friend is Very Critical of You


If your friend is so critical of your mistakes, chewing you out for even the smallest and pettiest mistakes, it’s another sign that such a friend might be fake, especially if the friend constantly excuses their own mistakes while making a big deal out of yours.

Your Friend Ignores You Often

This involves your friend ignoring what you say, your presence, failing to introduce you when necessary (even when their attention is brought to the fact that they haven’t) and basically just acting like you’re unimportant, irrelevant or like they have no idea whatsoever of who you are. If this occurs frequently, you should think twice about being this person’s friend.

There is nothing like a friend ..we only have companions of common interest for every season of our lives ..I never consider anyone a friend because as a teen I learnt early that word was a farce

Your post have some iota of truth, though to a large extent is misleading....Sometimes friends dat exhibit such attributes are d realest...while the reverse is the case in many instances.
..
The basic truth is, as we climb the ladder of life our circle of friends reduces...I can't be so successful and have more 10 best friend in ur circle.
.
We as humans are so used to some people and environment that we hardly let go even when they have passed dia time in our lives....some friends are just for some particular seasons in our life...our conscious or subconscious attitude of holding them back make them appear not friendly to us in many instances...simply because at that point in life our interest, ideas, life philosophy don't or hardly go in tandem.

For guys, here are some "Bro Codes" that define true friendship:

- Bros before hoes – A ‘hoe’ is defined as any woman that is not your wife or any other direct family.

- Whether a Bro is into sports or not, a Bro picks a team and supports them until his dying breath.

- If a bro gets a dog, it must be at least as tall as his knee when fully grown.

- A bro is always allowed to do something stupid as long as his bro’s are doing it as well.

- Single Bro’s always try and sit with one seat between them in case any ladies come along that don’t have anywhere to sit.

- If his girlfriend asks you about where he is, you know nothing – nothing at all. Keep his whereabouts to yourself, hang up and warn him.

- If a bro is unable to pitch in money for beer,
other bros shall cover him. He shall not be deprived of the holy potion.

- A Bro must always reciprocate a round of drinks among
Bros

- A bro doesn’t get lost, he merely finds an alternate route.

- A Bro ALWAYS enhances another Bro’s job description when introducing him.

- If you catch your bro’s girl cheating you immediately tell your bro regardless of any possible shitstorm that may arise.

- If two Bros get into a heated argument over something and one says something out of line, the other shall not expect him to take it back or apologize, that’s what women do.

- A bro never sends a birthday card to another bro.

- A Bro shows up at another Bro’s party with at least one more unit of alcohol than he plans to drink.

- The mum of a Bro is always off-limits.

- When Bro’s hug, they do not close their eyes and/or rest their head on the other bro’s shoulder.

- If a Bro discovers another Bro has forgotten to sign out of his Facebook/Twitter the Bro will sign out for him, but only after many many humiliating updates.

- ALL conversations between bros are subject to “bro to bro confidentiality”

- A Bro never lets his broken hearted Bro drink alone.

- A Bro shall not damage another Bros’ chances to score with a chick.

- A Bro is never offended if another Bro fails to return a phone call, text or email in a timely fashion.

- A bro never gives another bro the silent treatment.

- A bro may only ever stop a fellow bro from hooking up with a girl if, and only if, he is 100% sure that said girl is in fact a dude.

- There are four things about your bro that you must respect in all conditions – his house, his parents, his girlfriend and most important of all, his car.

- You just cannot get involved with your bro's mother or sister. It is one of the biggest violations of the bro code. A step mother whom he hates is still okay.

- You will do whatever it takes to make your bro look like a superhero in front of others. If he is bad at a certain sport you're playing, you play weak and save his image.

- When a Bro wants to do something stupid, first you try to talk the Bro out of it. If they still want to do it, you film it.

- A Bro doesn't un-friend his Bro on Facebook.

- A Bro DOES NOT choose his own nickname. A nickname is bestowed upon you by your fellow bros, either as a punishment or a reward for epic deeds.

- A Bro of a Bro is a Bro to you.

- Bros take care of their fellow bros when they have too much to drink.

- A bro never shows or tells a crazy chick where his fellow bro lives or stays, only that bro can subject himself to that grief.

- When a Bro has a kid, his Bros become honorary uncles.

- Bro’s don’t pout for photos.

- When Bro’s hug, they do not close their eyes and/or rest their head on the other bro’s shoulder.

-If you catch your bro’s girl cheating you immediately tell your bro regardless of any possible shitstorm that may arise.

- Bro’s don’t share details about their “little bro” with other bro’s.

- Single Bro’s always try and sit with one seat between them in case any ladies come along that don’t have anywhere to sit.

- A bro cannot give another bro a Teddy bear.

- When playing or responding to a prank, a Bro’s car is off limits.

- If a bro dies while lifting weights, the other bro shall add more weight to the bar before dialling 911

- At a Bro’s funeral, all other bro’s toast with the deceased’s drink of choice

BRO CODE ROCKS! grin
