Not Everyone Is Your Friend

Many people will walk in and out of your life, but only true friends will leave footprints in your heart.

You must know how hard it is to find a true friend. They don’t lay down on the street for you to pick up them easily.

An honest friendship is built on trust and mutual respect. That’s why not everyone is your friend – not everybody is loyal and they have their own reasoning not to be your friend.?

To find your friends for life you first need to know how to distinguish from the bad ones. Not everyone is your friend means that not everybody respects and cares about you.?

They don’t take in consideration your problems, opinions, and don’t try to find compromises that would benefit you.

A true friend will always stand by your side and support you. He will never abandon or betray you.

Some people have negative mind

People that possess negative thinking focus on worst possible outcomes in situations in life.?Instead of focusing on positive outcomes, they constantly worry about the worst scenarios and start overthinking. Their mind rejects to think positively.

If you have ‘friends’ like that who contact you during their worst times when they need emotional support, they are not your friends.

These people are energy and mood vampires that seek to recharge themselves by shifting all the negativities off their shoulders onto you.

Note that it’s completely okay to drown in negative thoughts from time to time. It happens for almost everyone, especially when you face stressful situations for the first time.?

However, such behavior shouldn’t repeat itself too often. It should be a very rare occasion. If it happens that your ‘friend’ contacts you frequently for emotional support, he needs to fix this problem ASAP.

You can always contact your true friends if you need to get something off your mind. They will always pat on your back and give some good advice.

Often those that criticise others reveal what he himself lacks.

As a contrast, not everyone is your friend if they don’t have time or show no interest in your feelings and well-being.

If they feel no empathy for you and boast about themselves how they would handle the situation better, that’s not a healthy friendship at all. They don’t understand you and never will.

People are hypocrites

It’s common that people in front of you act friendly, but behind your back they stab you without mercy. That signals only one thing, which is double-faced people.

They are not trustworthy and will bring you down just to look better themselves. It’s no wonder that trust issues lie among humanity. That’s how it all started.

Not everyone is your friend and certainly hypocrites are not one of those who you should keep in your close social circle. They will try to embarrass you and underline your weak lines.

Thank you?….People use physical embarrassment.

There are individuals who like to show their dominance using soft or harsh physical violence. People who push you, annoyingly poke you, and even use actual physical violence are definitely not worthy to be called your friends.

One thing you can't hide - is when you're crippled inside.

They embarrass you in public and show no respect to you whatsoever. They think of it as a ‘fun’ way to interact with you.?

However, what they don’t think is how you feel about it. They don’t even bother asking. They don’t care about you and you shouldn’t care about them too.

Sweet words don’t mean trust

Have you ever encountered someone that sugar coats everything? They certainly have mastered the art of uplifting other people’s ego.

They know how to make approach you and make you feel appreciated and worthy. They make a lot of promises and they look fantastic in front of your eyes at that very moment

It’s completely fine to do that, as long as they are keeping their word and do everything they say. However, it often happens that they don’t keep the promise and forget everything.

?Do you want to add a word or two?

I knew one person that did that for a few years in my life. And let me tell you – I didn’t appreciate such behavior at all. I have to agree that the person is in his own league and was exceptionally good at that.

Nonetheless, it has no meaning. Actions speak louder than words. Never settle for less than you deserve.

People are self-centered

You see, all people are self-centered ‘Yes, exactly – everyone. People are in-born being ego-centric. People believe they know themselves the best.

While being self-centered is apparently unavoidable, the ego-centric levels vary from individual to individual.

Your comments....?

It’s okay to love something a little too much, as long as it’s real to you.

Not everyone is your friend, especially the extreme versions of self-centered people. They try to take all of the attention to themselves. They are not interested in you.?

In addition, they hide their vulnerabilities and will never fully open to you. The worst thing about all of this is that they see themselves as the best and no one can compare to them.?

That’s definitely not a type of friend that you would want to have.

People change after obtaining power

It turns out that people who are feeling powerless have more empathy towards other people. On the flip side, when people feel powerful they have less empathy.

People with power lose ability to understand what it’s like to feel powerless. They detach themselves from reality due to their ego. Their scope and view of the world changes dramatically.
