A true friend is the one who always supports you.
Fake friends will keep telling you again and again that you can trust them to know your secrets. They later use it against you.
For most, after family, friends occupy the place of companions with whom they can share their feelings without filter. From financial needs to emotional support, friends always make sure that the problems never take the best of you by helping you in your time of need. However, nowadays, it is difficult to find a true friend when deceit and scams are an everyday occurrence. Although we have many friends who tell us in front of us that they are our well-wishers behind our backs they speak ill of us. In such a situation, it becomes very important to know whether your friend is true or fake. Here are some signs through which you can estimate if your friend is true or fake.
Assurance But No Deliverance
If your friend tells you repeatedly that they are always with you but never take a stand for you when the need arises, then understand that they are your fake friends. They are only with you when needed. You can trust a true friend with closed eyes. On the other hand, your fake friend will keep telling you again and again that you can trust them to know your secrets. They later use it against you.
Always Busy
A true friend is the one who always supports you. On the other hand, the mark of a fake friend is continuously ditching the plan. Sometimes can be understandable but if your friend does it every day, then it can be a sign of a fake friend.
You Are Overreacting
A good and true friend listens to you carefully, supports you and empathises with your feelings. Whereas, the mark of a fake friend is comments like ‘you are overreacting’ and other similar remarks when you share your emotions with them.
Guilt Trips Over Friendship Moments
If a friend of yours is reminding you of your old good moments, they are your true friend who still cherishes the moments of friendship. On the other hand, if a friend is repeatedly reminding you of your old mistakes or bad moments, then they are not your well-wishers. Try to keep a distance from such persons.
