Re: Share The Moment You Realised You Had A Fake Friend Or Frenemy by ayo6hammiey(m): 10:57pm On Jul 01, 2023
So there was a time about 4 years ago I had a friend who does POS. He was actually making a gain of around #400k monthly and was doing very well we were like twins. That's to show how close we were. I was out of job then but thanks to my very good wife I dey manage.

One time I was called my dad was very sick. My wife and I live in another part of the state. So I called my friend to help me send him 3k that morning to go for quick treatment that by afternoon I'll send him the money. My friend didn't even wait 2 minutes before he forwarded his account.. Ontop 3k and my dad was sick. That's not even the worst part, my friend never helped with the 3k for my dad, never went to check up on my dad. My wife had to borrow money from a colleague at work to send to my dad. I wept that day.

Fast-forward to last year October, I got a good job outside the country with a very good pay. I asked my friend to borrow me. money again and he said he doesn't have, God finally used people I don't know to raise my money and someone I don't know actually paid for my flight to London free of charge (British Airways direct flight from naija), people I never met in my life before gave me money at Heathrow. I left naija with less than £100 and I was given a total of about £220 at the airport by unknown people. How that happened is still a mystery till now.

Our of my first salary I sent wifey #500k for thank you, told her to spend it anyhow cos she's a good woman and sacrificed a lot for me to make it.

Fast foward to January, my friend wife call me to send her money! I was shocked. I began to ask questions only for her to tell me that things are so hard for them (till now), 4 shops out of 5 closed down and the last one not in full function. My friend owes several millions in bank ans most of his property sold to cover up but yet ẹ no reach, tó even pay 50k houserent sef is a problem and feeding is so hard now. I sha advise her. My friend heard I travelled and I invested some huge amount in some projects and asked me for help, he told me all his story and all he's passing through as he is already in depression and contemplating suicide. Me I sha advise him.

Two weeks ago she (his wife) called again for my help financially, I told my wife and seeked her opinion, she told me to help her in a little way I can.

As for my so called friend, I didnt help him o! I can't help people like that. I was knowingly giving out money to our other friends and I'm sure they are telling him 😂😂😂

he doesn't hate You na, he just doesn't want that information to reach You. If anything Ur relationship should be stronger cos he might have felt You would be insecure from pasts experience he has had with others. This is not a valid reason to cut him off, You too can make gains without letting him know that's life
Thanks, but to be honest, I'm codedly withdrawing from him. I think there's something sinister about him. Sincerely speaking..

Your Friend wasn't really bad, He was just very stingy and didn't know the secret of money is to help others and it will keep coming back. U and him were like twins so there was a bond until money drove that wedge. Maybe all this was already on the plate B4 U travelled who knows. If You asked Ur wife if You could help, shows Ur Heart is pricking U to help U just need confirmation. U don't have to give him funds to solve his problems but at least funds so they eat, remember his wife and kids are innocent in all this. People U didn't know showed U love, na so God dey use do em thing ooo

Back then in uni, I connected my generator to his room so that he can enjoy light at night he had only fan and laptop.

A year later, my generator got knocked and God so good, few weeks later ,he bought a small tiger gen.

I told him to share me light and he said NO.

NOTE : he enjoyed my gen for a whole year without paying shishi for fuel
It's well. These stories are making me scared.

I had an accident ,my car was terribly damaged.
I overheard her tell another colleague at work that she is happy I sold off my car as scrap.
At least,I will trek and jump public transport.
This is someone I called a friend.
I used to drive to her place and she would join me to work ,some days.

To her disappointment,I bought a new car within a month.
She feigned happiness and came around.
I shocked her .

Shame catch her.
I ended the friendship
Wow

Do people still keep friends these days?
Very good question.

I personally don't keep friends anymore. What I have now are acquaintances that I meet at our drinking dens and I only see you IF I come to the beer parlour. Outside that, you go call me tire because I go don block your number.

Nigerians of all ages are too full of drama.

Jealousy, envy, hatred, gossip, and every other evil thing you could think is what you'll get when you keep friends, I don't even keep friends, that shit ended in my university days.
We now live in a world of pretence.

Chai see Naija life, shame you guys never experience real friendship

Reminderz:
Share your experiences...

Here's mine: I'm always happy for him, even when he opened his own store and rented his own space, in fact, I was one of the first person to get there when he celebrated his winnings... I gave him the needed support and encouragement... I realised that anytime I got my own breakthroughs, he never celebrated me or does as if he noticed them...

I later found out he was even jealous of my own winnings despite how true I was to him... I cut off the relationship before I got stabbed in the back... I didn't really know where the envy or jealousy was coming from...
You took the best decision for your safety.



I don't like to envy people, wen I see good things I appreciate them, cos that's one of the secret to one's open door. If I see any person with such spirit around me immediately I cut you off.

It's always better when both friends are winning.

But as life no balance,one person will be winning and the other isn't. There's bound to be envy wich most times is normal.
Envy has to do with the mind, you must learn to control your thoughts and appreciate people when they're winning, even if the person is close to you and doesn't help you while he's making it, you won't even care much about him.



I always tell people pray for your own , cos na only your own be your own. That's one of the best way to conquer the spirit of envy in a man or woman.

This guy comes to my house regularly and we we've known for over twenty years but he hid the fact that he is building a duplex from me. It's from the wife that I got to know he's completed the two wings duplex . He tells me every other thing in this world regarding himself. I'm thinking there's a reason he's shielding me from knowing it because it's a massive building from what I heard.

Yet he hasn't by mistake, ever made a passing mention of it to me and we are very very close. A mutual pal recently told me that he discreetly saw the house , he was shocked because it's massive and my friend immediately told him not to tell me o.

I've never envied nor get jealous of him. I see him as a brother .

Humans are really deceptive.
to be frank if he had told you, you will start asking him of favour and if he doesnt oblige, you hate him for that.

I actually see no favour that he can offer me. Atimes we split bills when we hang out. Atimes either of us pay. I don't see him richer than me in any way. I have a house, he has a house. He's married with kids, same as me. If anything, he's the one that kowtows towards me.

There was this guy back then In school.
He hardly come to school but one of the bigger boys in school.
I was the most brilliant boy in my department.
Him and his boys normally come to me during exam time so I can tell them answers.
I will meet this guy to tell me how I will be making money like him but he will tell me later.
Do you know after the final exam.
This guy and his friends blocked me and didn't talk to me again.
The sensible people that I would have followed in school, I didn't follow them again.
I was foolishly following those animals thinking they will teach me how to fish but I ended up being used.
He was your friend, you were not his friend.

Even the person already winning doesn't want you to win anything at all.

The earlier you realized it's all man for himself, the better for you.
Lol omoh! This your comment just made me laugh real hard.

But that's the truth tho, they always want you to ask from them or might be scared you'll do well more than them.
