You would think that figuring out whether someone is fake or not is an easy task, but this is just not the case. A real friend will be sure to tell you the truth, no matter how painful that truth is. On the contrary, a fake friend will tell you what you want to hear, not caring about the consequences that may come from that.
These false friends will also treat you differently depending on who else is around. They might tell you that they like you, but they will also ask that you keep your friendship a secret. When you greet them in public, they might even act like they don’t know you. They could be nice to you when you’re alone, but they might be distant or even mean to you when you’re with other people. However, it is highly likely that these people have no real friends because if they are false with you, they will also be fake to others.
