Q: According to a new survey… What is the #1 sign that your friend isn’t truly your friend? That he or she is a fake friend.

A: If you feel like your role “revolves around pitying the other person”

2.  When the friendship is on their terms.  They only want to talk when it’s about them . . . convenient for them . . . or will benefit them in some way.

3.  When friends keep secrets that affect your life . . . like knowing something questionable about someone you’re dating, and not telling you.

4.  They never make time for you when they’re in a relationship

5.  Encounters with them leave you emotionally drained

6.  When you find yourself avoiding them or constantly complaining about them

7.  When they stop caring, and then explode when you point it out

8.  If they won’t accept you for who you are, and try to get you to change yourself

9.  When you realize the friend creates 99.9% of the drama you and them get into.  And you’re cleaning up 99.9% of it

10.  No accountability.  There’s no, “I messed up, I’m sorry,” just excuses and avoiding you
