10 Warning Signs of People You Do Not Want as Best Friends

We all know people similar to those mentioned below. In my opinion, they are very unstable individuals. Whatever motivates them to behave as they do is difficult to establish, but it must have to do with their own personal issues with trust and honesty.

1. The person who continually talks trash about people that you both know. It is 100% guaranteed that this person is talking the same way about you.
2. The person who minimizes any problem you have while at the same time insinuating that they have problems that “nobody” knows about. This is an attempt to appear as though they are able to deal with adversity much better than everyone else.
3. The person who boasts that they always “tell it like it is” and never “sugar coat” things. By claiming to just being honest, they are giving themselves permission to be insulting and say hurtful things to others.
4. The person who is financially secure and offers to help out others in need, but feels they can get by with tacky items and should be grateful to have it.
5. The person who refuses to give someone credit for becoming a success because they were from poor beginnings. These people will constantly remind everyone that “they knew them when”.
6. The person who will tell you little confidential secretes because they can trust you not to repeat them, while telling the same thing to five or six other people.
7. The person who would rather lie to get out of doing something or going somewhere rather than honestly admitting they just aren’t up to it. They will make up outrageous stories to get out of something to which they have made a commitment.
8. The person who will hold onto a grudge for their entire life regardless of how insignificant the issue was. In time their bitterness turns them into hateful people.
9. The person who gets really close to you as a confidant while gaining information they will use against you if a disagreement arises between you. These people will share these confidences with others with whom they want to get close.
10. The person who challenges every issue that arises because they never heard of it before. Assuming that rules have not changed in 50 years, they rely on outdated information and will refuse to accept that current policy has a direct impact on their situation.
