phonies

My sister and all of her friends are all phonies and fakers, they will be so nice to somebody and then really diss them as soon as they leave. I can appreciate wanting to keep the peace and not start a fight,but they could just be civil to one another and not all gushy and lovey dovey. It's too much and its not necessary. A friend of a friend, her name is marie, when i see her she will not speak to me and i will not speak to her, we have both been asked why (seperately) and our responses are apparently the same, we both say I do not talk to her because i do not like her, it really is that simple? What about you guys? Do you know any phonies? are you civil or OTT or just simply ignore them?

I don't like fakers either. I know some people like that. I'd rather not hang out with them to be honest, because I know they're talking about not just me, but everyone, behind their backs. On another note, I am also cordial to those I meet, even those I dislike. I'm not overly friendly or extra nice, just polite. I see no reason to add fuel to their fire. If I'm addressed, I will respond, but I don't go to any great lengths, you know? Fakers will always be in our midst, and someday they will be alone, because even fakes can only tolerate each other for so long.

I am a blunt and sometimes tactless person. When I do not like a person, it's very obvious and I see no point in trying to smile or be nice to that person. Most of my friends are like me too. I guess that's the reason why we are friends. We do not enjoy being around fakers. We tend to stay away from such people.
