We have all been there. We have all had that one friend where we question if they have ulterior motives, their actions, and behavior. So here are some signs of a not so good friend.
They judge you
A true friend should never judge you. You should feel comfortable around a friend. You shouldn't fell as if you have to walk on eggshells around them. A true friend is someone you can truly be yourself around. You should not have to put on mask and become a different person in order to remain their friend. Here's a scenario, y'all are going out and you have this new outfit you really love and feel confident in. You ask them if they like it or if you look good. Their response is ehh. Somewhere along those lines. That right there is not a good friend. A good friend would see the happiness and confidence on your face and say yes you look good.
They try to one up you
Scenario. You get a 90 on a test in a really hard class ad turn to your "friend" and tell them. They respond with oh I got a 95. Well thats not very nice. Friendship is not a competition. It is about support. Your friend should be happy for you and celebrate with you. It is not about who has the nicest clothes, the biggest house, or the newest car.
They aren't there for you
Someone who comes around only when they need something from you is not your friend. When they only talk to you when they need or want something of yours is a bad sign. You should not be friends with someone because of what they have. You shouldn't have to basically pay for your friends. Also, they aren't your friend if they are nowhere to be found when you are in a time of need. Like I said earlier, friendship is about support. Friends should be there to support one another.
