FAKE FRIEND VS TRUE FRIEND

Now more than ever, it seems as if our society is filled with too many artificial friends. These people are typically known as seasonal friends or social climbers, which means they are friends with you only for the short time period that you can provide a benefit for them or are in the scene they happen to be in. A great example would be the nightlife friend: one who is never usually your friends during the day time.

You are only as good to these people as you are in the scene because you have some sort of social value to them. Many get duped into thinking that these people are their true friends and actually invest a wasted time and money into their company. Another great example here is the college friend. In college, one will say they have many close friends. But once college is over the chances of you staying in touch with more than two of these people is very low.

True friends are extremely hard to come by nowadays, as it is harder than ever to weed out the fakes. Of course everyone hates to admit their friends are fake, but the truth is that you can count the amount of true friends you have on one hand.

Friendship is one of the most important bonds that we have amongst our society and should not be taken for granted. Here is how you correctly spot a true friend that will be there for you under any circumstance.

True friend quality

Loyalty

Honesty

True friends don’t let their friends down

Don’t put your relationships before a friend

Humor

Closing thought

A true friend doesn’t just talk of caring about you. They’re there when you need . A true friend roots for blessing to happen for you―and they do what they can to be one of your blessings.

Being a true friend is a challenge. You, sometimes, have to priorities them over yourself not to make them feel neglected or alone. It's even harder when they're not on the same track as you are, you, then, have to put an effort to show that you're still there even though you find it harder each day to put up with .

REAL FRIEND –

-Is happy for you when you succeed 
-Wants the best for you and acts accordingly 
-Doesn't have bad things to say about you behind your back

-Can tell there's something wrong even though you are trying to hide it 
-Don't pretend that your friendship is perfect and are honest with you to a reasonable degree (but don't attack you suddenly out of the blue with no warning) 
-Sometimes takes the blame for their misdeeds (doesn't just blame you all the time) 
-Make the effort to communicate with you (in general- talks to you regularly) 

FAKE FRIEND –

-Doesn't support you and makes a gazillion excuses for why she 'can't' support you but expects you to support her 24/7 
-Doesn't make time for you

- Gives you crap advice on purpose because she doesn't really care about you at all 
-Puts down your achievements to boost herself 
- Doesn't want the best for you (only wants the best for themselves)

-Just uses you for your advice/money/fame/possessions/etc.. 
-Doesn't respect that you have a life too 
-Is selfish with you

-Can't have fun with you anymore
- Doesn't appreciate you and doesn't value your friendship 

-Doesn't trust you

-Can't tell there's something wrong even though you aren't trying to hide it

-Can't be honest with you until they blow up and attack you .

ALSO MARK THESE POINTS -

Are they happy or jealous when you've achieved something great? 

When you go to your friend with exciting news, they should be just as happy as you are, or at least try to be. They should support you with congratulating words and positive encouragement. Pay attention to their reaction and body language, see if they seem genuine. You can usually tell if they have some jealous feelings towards you, which could possibly lead to unforeseen drama. Remember, there is a difference between jealousy and envy.

Will they have your back if someone is talking negative things about you, or do they join in? 

Have you ever experienced confronting someone for saying negative things about you, only to find out your bestfriend was involved, possibly starting the whole discussion? A real friend would always back you up. They would never sit around and let others talk about you in a negative way without you being there to defend yourself. As a matter of fact, if they are loyal to you like they claim to be, they would call you right in the mist of the negative talks, put you on speaker phone and help you defend yourself. If you find out your friend is joining in on the negative gossip, you might want to question them as a real friend.

Sometimes it's hard pinpoint deceit, especially if you're not paying attention. There are of course other ways of finding out if someone is true and loyal to you or not, but these are a few things to get you started.
