It's in the vibe they give. You can feel it the way a dog smells fear.

When you remove the knife out of your back. I"ve been stabbed twice now and I've learned something.

Remember those principles your mom/dad taught you like.....................................
(1) Hang around like minded people. I.E. if you befriend a gold-digger or a ho and you aren't (even if you don't judge them) -these people often are comparing themselves with you and seeking your downfall. This makes for true potential backstabbers.
(2) If they talk about other people behind their back maliciously then they will talk about you too. I'll admit I ignored nasty catty comments said about others only to realize they were being said about me behind me back as well.
(3) Morals and values. If you hang out with someone deceitful or phoney then wouldn't you expect some of their nature to be displayed in your "friendship"
*Live and learn. Never tell anyone everything about yourself.
*Beware, even if you share commonalities.......if they're value system isn't similar/leave them alone.
*Their behavior will always give them away. You will see them lie/deceive/or do nasty things to other people so don't think they won't do it to you.
*I have met the UGLIEST women disguised as friendly/nice people who are satan's children.

I love it when people are sweet to me whether they're being fake or real...People I know well, I know are real, and that's all that matters to me...........in answer to your question.....you get to know them.

ITA with this. I've learned to listen to my intuition. It's usually right.

OMG, yes!! This is a dead give away. Once someone starts bad mouthing someone, gossiping, or treating someone bad, I back away. They go into acquaintance pile. We laugh and may hang out, but I never let my guard down, share secrets with them, or trust them.

If they tell you you look wonderful and ask if you've lost weight (or are working out) then ask you for money... That's fake nice.

Or butter you up right before asking for a troublesome or HUGE favor.

time will always tell genuine from fake.

im sure there are people who dont think i am nice, because i dont feel the need to please everyone. i dont give, or accept BS in my life, and will call someone out on it in a heartbeat.

even with that, though, if youre my friend, I'll do anything I can to help you if you need it.

I think people can't hurt you if you don't let them. Nothing anyone can say about me can bother me. I just have too much happening in my life to worry about it. So...who cares if they are fake or not? If they are important in my life, then, I know them well enough to know what is real and what is not. I also have a tendency to drop people that I don't trust. That way I don't have to worry about fake people because they are not in my life.
