The Signs Of A Fake Friend To Look Out For

If you’re questioning your friendships, then here are some signs of a fake friend!

If your friends talk bad about other people to you, then they talk bad about you behind your back. These are types of friendships where friend group talks about others, and a pair of friends out of that group talk about you. If your friends are gossipers, then that’s one of the biggest signs of a fake friend.

They always try to outdo anything you do and put you down when they do something better.
