Recognizing fake people can save you a lot of emotional energy! When people only act friendly when they need something from you, it’s a clear red flag. If they’re insincere, they often seem overly complimentary or always agreeing, but their actions don't match their words.
Absolutely! True friendship is about consistency and support, not just when it's easy. Genuine friends stand by you in tough times, not just during the good moments. It’s about being there when it truly counts.
Real friendship means being there when it matters most, not just when it’s convenient. How has this insight impacted the way you approach relationships?
sucks when it’s family , you have this illusion they love you n cool with you, which they do, but they don’t like you don’t reach out so feel disappointed
Older widows often face unique challenges when building new friendships in an ageist society. How do you find strength and confidence in forming these new connections?
The good thing is that I’ve gotten rid of most that were fake towards me but from listening to this, there are still a few more weeds to pull out of my garden!!!! 😂😂😂😂
Clearing out negativity creates space for true growth and peace. How do you feel now that you’re recognizing and removing these final 'weedes' from your life?
Remember fake attracts fake real attracts real LESSONS LEARNED as you age you grow wisdom I have 1 friend the less energy around me the better I look and feel 💯
Learning that authenticity attracts authenticity is a powerful lesson. How has focusing on genuine connections, like that one friend, impacted your energy and well being?
Life would be so much easier if this were true! The lessons that life offers would be easier, if this is true but sadly, like does not attract like. It's a waste of time should take this route. Life is much more complex then you know😢😮😢
@@KingStoic101 I am brutally honest I know we are all perfectly flawed I accept my friend wholeheartedly I tell her like it is and she does the same with me we may get a little upset remember a real friend cares about you unconditionally and they will have opinions we have a very simple friendship no pushing boundaries respect is key
I have a fake friend, always needing, begging, with crying faces and prayer hands, applying sweet words yet not around when I am in need. I've waited to do some tests and now I know a "fake friend".
Realizing who truly values you can be a tough pill to swallow, but it’s also freeing. Stoicism reminds us to focus on the relationships that genuinely add meaning to our lives and let go of expectations that lead to disappointment. 🙏
Absolutely, letting go of false expectations clears the path for authentic connections. How do you nurture the relationships that truly align with your values and bring you peace?
@@KingStoic101 Completely agree! I focus on open communication, mutual respect, and spending quality time with those who uplift and inspire me. It’s also about setting boundaries to protect my peace. How do you approach nurturing meaningful relationships?
A genuine friendship is very important to me, after my retirement returning to my homeland we still keep in touch. Whenever I have important questions she will reply in guiding me her true answer. Knowing her more than twenty years , she has always been kind and helpful in every situation. She well liked by many of our colleagues. I am grateful and appreciate for she has this genuine personality. In my life I have also encountered many insincere friends and from there I will keep my calm and quietly distance myself so my inner self is in peace and not being hurt. Thank you
Having such a genuine friend is truly a gift, especially after so many years. How does her friendship inspire you to maintain a sense of calm and authenticity in your own life?
I just say to myself "you live and you learn". Can't change the past but be aware. 38 years lay, tried to do it again and I said no, I have no money for her.
Learning from past experiences is powerful, and setting boundaries is an act of self respect. How has saying ‘no’ this time made you feel more in control and empowered?
Stoicism teaches us that clarity and inner peace are our best defenses against insincere people. Recognizing the signs of fake friendships helps us remain calm and self-assured in any relationship.
My expectations are often unrealistic, stoicism has been a tremendous help in aligning my expectations with reality (amor fati). The hardest part for me is to stop looking for external validation and rely on myself.

@@KingStoic101Wow I had a bf leave me in a vacant park at night after a disagreement. It was a bit scary walking back to my car alone, not knowing who might be lurking behind a bush. Wish I had known to dump him at that moment, but I took him back when he apologized, and in the end, he dumped me. Now looking back, I see lots of Narcissistic tendencies in the ways he treated me. I'm glad for the hindsight. No more regrets there.
They're often the only option because human nature is primarily about themselves. It's a rare person that makes the effort to not be a selfish a.. hole.
It’s true that loneliness can make us tolerate less genuine connections, but even solitude can be more fulfilling than draining relationships. How do you balance seeking connection while protecting your peace and self worth?
@@KingStoic101 My answer to this is partly that I no longer take people at face value. After listening to you and several people on yt explain unhealthy patterns of behavior, as well as reading the thousands and thousands of comments from people who have dealt with toxic people like I have, it has reassured me that "it's not me." I talk with them a short while and now have the tools to pretty much see them for who they are in very short order. The other part is that if I am lonely, I will go out, like to the store, and maybe just chat with someone in line a bit to get my fix. Don't want to get to know too much any more. Then I take the dog out for a run on the logging roads.
I have spotted many fake people. I have dismissed them from my presence. There was one in particular that I had to state to his face: I do not want to talk with you because you only matter to you. There is no value in our conversations. I walked away. He tried. I dismissed him. Thank you for your teachings.
i just move on i don't put my hope or trust in humans that way i don't get expect to much .... i never give others that power over me that i can't move on....i wish nothing bad for anyone.....
I had a so called friend...yea we kicked up turnt up we vibe damn near err day as SO CALL BROTHERS....bruh used to move outta town..hit my line...venting....I used to send bruh money to get himself together...while holding my own family... I always told him he don't owe me nun.....just be 100.....the vibe changed..... So I played broke....only with a few dollars fa me..... Guess.....no calls no shows..... Everybody that owe right now DON'T COME AROUND NO MO... # I PAID THEM TO KEEP DISTANCE... # FREE GAME..
Wise man once said" a friend in need is a friend indeed",so I think in this materialistic world, almost every person whether relative or friend possess such great qualities to deceive so be on guard. better to indulge yourself with animals as they are not humans.
In a world full of superficial connections, animals offer loyalty and honesty without expectations. What qualities do you value most in a genuine friend?
I never mind if a friend doesn't initiate contact. I accept that, if we haven't argued then we're still friends. If they need help at some point then why wouldn't i be there when they need me? Just because someone isn't calling round all the time or phoning you, ut doesn't mean they don't value you. Stop measuring friendship by expecting constant confirmation. I survive by expecting as little as possible and understanding that everyone has their own stuff going on, using up their life, and affecting them. Why would I want to take first position in a friend's life? They don't take first place in mine. Point 1 is meant to be about keeping your inner peace but was actually about judgement. Point 2 was hypocritical when placed straight after the first. It encourages more judgement about why a friend might not be able to help you. Sometimes people can't help. Being a friend doesn't mean they have to help you. Be a friend yourself and understand that they aren't perfect and maybe they won't always be able to be there for us. Point 3 is just annoying me now because irs all so ridiculously focused on expectations and unkind judgements! Eg if someone talks a lot about themselves how do we know the reason why? Their own need may be to feel that they have a voice. Maybe they trust you as their friend to let them "rattle on" .... getting things off their chest. I've done it myself when i was really sad inside and couldn't speak to anyone else very often. If someone is indifferent to my problems then maybe they struggle with empathy. Can I deal with that? Of course. You can still say what your own problems are but expect no sympathy at all. Or just realise that this particular friend struggles to understand others and that you can be easy on them by not expecting them to have your own personality. We have a responsibility to ourselves to create friendships that are within our own character types, holding values that we hold. I would prefer to have no friends than difficult ones. And demanding friends that require you to perform friendship confirmation every day are wayyy too pressurising. I'm now turning this video off because its awful. It just assumes people are doing these things for bad reasons and so you have to be stoic. Just be real. Be kind. Understand that others have their own lives, difficulties and reasons, and that mostly people are good. They don't mean to upset or offend others. Anyone who does it deliberately you need to avoid, but just know they are damaged people if they have to hurt others.
True friendship embraces both presence and distance, allowing each person space to live their own life. How has accepting people as they are brought you more peace in friendships?
I've learned that the people who are real friends , are the ones who have no hidden agendas and like you just the way you are...the ones that you can trust when you're up against it and need help. and vice versa.
I absolutely have a couple fake friends! You explained this absolutely perfectly! Every single word and point and example you spoke about was mind blowing! Phenomenal! Thank you tremendously

Tf is a "friend"? You mean all those strangers who screwed me over while smiling in my face? I have exactly three friends: Me Myself & I The only way it could ever have been.
I had a friend that invested a lot of time and energy into me, and I, being truly grateful, sought for ways to give back but was resisted at every offer. Eventually, she withdrew completely, leaving me clueless. When I pressed for an explanation, she gave a complicated reason involving my not needing her advice and being angry when my position wasn't being heeded. I ended up realizing she had been right and apologized for being angry and not listening to her. She said she forgave me, but she has kept her distance ever since. I keep thinking there must be more I need to do to make amends, but it's hard to see through the brick wall. I do feel jealous when she dotes over other people while ignoring me. I have decided to let go of the friendship for now; I no longer pursue her, but the hurt remains. I don't know if she would classify as a fake friend, but she is an enigma to me.
False people are VERY GOOD at giving back handed compliments as well! Example: You tell them that you’re happy about a positive result and instead of being happy for you; they’ll hit you with, “Well I hope you got this or that” trying to make you feel inferior or to place doubt and to also detract from the positive situation or whatever that you had shared with their fictional character or they’ll just be silent and at some point even change the subject!!! Major red flags!!!!! 🚩 🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩
Backhanded compliments expose a lack of sincerity, often rooted in envy. How do you stay confident and focused on your achievements despite these reactions?
Thanks for explaining very nicely. For peace of mind and happiness recognition of true and false friends is very important. Stoicism helps to keep you away from negativity.
Thank you for your thoughtful insight! Recognizing true friends from false ones is indeed crucial for protecting our peace of mind and well-being. Stoicism equips us with the clarity to identify negativity and let it go, allowing us to focus on what truly matters. Keep embracing these principles, they’re a powerful guide to a more fulfilling life!
Interesting. I thought that sharing a similar situation that I had experienced was letting someone know that I understood how they felt & that they were not alone in that type of experience.
Sharing similar experiences can be a great way to show empathy and connection. How do you balance sharing your story while keeping the focus on the other person's feelings?
I m just friendly to everyone who is nice and ignore those who are not, that said, I don’t have ‘friends’ and I don’t get disappointed from anyone. I m my only friend🧚♂️
I really enjoy listening to this wisdom and stuff and I think I’m a pretty peaceful person then easy to get along with and don’t let things get to me. Keep my peace of mind I’m on the cement if I have to walk away then I will and come back later, but I really enjoy the sermons
Actually the person who was AGAIN trying to get me pay with the claim she would pay me back was my sister. She won't talk to me anymore. She didn't talk to me about 38 years and appeared to make connection again. So I just feel, oh well, life goes on.
It’s tough when family dynamics become strained, but prioritizing your peace and boundaries is so important. How are you focusing on building relationships that bring positivity and mutual respect into your life?
Fair-weather friends can be disappointing, but they also teach us valuable lessons about who truly deserves our trust. How has this realization shaped the way you approach your connections?
Good for you for recognizing and acting on what was best for your peace. A Stoic would say true friends uplift you, not drain you. Could this experience be a reminder to prioritize relationships that align with your values and well being?
Life’s journey often feels longer than we expect, but every step shapes who we are. How has your story influenced your perspective on finding true, genuine connections?
I have spotted many fake friends. As long as I was working with some of them it was easy to have quick response in conversations, but later on when I no longer worked with certain people, the friendship died away quickly. I have learned a long time ago, a real true friend is there when you have a lot and when you have nothing. It's a little rare to have a Ginuwine friend around.
True friendships indeed withstand changes in circumstance, unlike those that fade when convenience ends. What qualities do you now prioritize when letting people into your circle?
It’s deeply hurtful to feel unvalued, especially when someone treats others differently. How has this experience helped you recognize what you truly deserve in relationships?
The signs are always there, we just need to see them. Ever felt like someone wasn't genuine?

Yes. I call it ammunition. Children are good at it. Thats why we sheltered them. What they dont see they cant talk about.
Sometimes it's just for their own entertainment and to have something juicy to talk about with other people.
Not just friends even family members do the same .

I have decided to let go of the friendship for now; I no longer pursue her, but the hurt remains. I don't know if she would classify as a fake friend, but she is an enigma to me.
Letting go of someone who once meant a lot to you is never easy. How has this decision to step back brought you peace or clarity?
False people are VERY GOOD at giving back handed compliments as well! Example: You tell them that you’re happy about a positive result and instead of being happy for you; they’ll hit you with, “Well I hope you got this or that” trying to make you feel inferior or to place doubt and to also detract from the positive situation or whatever that you had shared with their fictional character or they’ll just be silent and at some point even change the subject!!! Major red flags!!!!! 🚩 🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩
Backhanded compliments expose a lack of sincerity, often rooted in envy. How do you stay confident and focused on your achievements despite these reactions?

I spotted a fake friend! Thank-you for the help
Sometimes, saying goodbye to fake friends opens space for authentic ones. What qualities do you now value most in true friends?
I spotted a FAKE friend.
THANKS A LOT SIR !
Thanks for explaining very nicely. For peace of mind and happiness recognition of true and false friends is very important. Stoicism helps to keep you away from negativity.
Thank you for your thoughtful insight! Recognizing true friends from false ones is indeed crucial for protecting our peace of mind and well-being. Stoicism equips us with the clarity to identify negativity and let it go, allowing us to focus on what truly matters. Keep embracing these principles, they’re a powerful guide to a more fulfilling life!
I have alots of fake friend they only give me a call when they need something from me
I hope so and hope it's obvious and we can laught at the knowing truth is exactly where you shouldn't be
Wow! I so resonate with this.
Awesome! Thank you!
I discovered there are no true friends, only circumstances i have to deal with
Seeing people come and go based on circumstances can be a tough realization. How do you find peace with this understanding?
I agree totally 100%

I came to it by finally finding acceptance of what is.
I'm old now and wish I'd have gotten clarity sooner.

Interesting. I thought that sharing a similar situation that I had experienced was letting someone know that I understood how they felt & that they were not alone in that type of experience.
Sharing similar experiences can be a great way to show empathy and connection. How do you balance sharing your story while keeping the focus on the other person's feelings?
@@KingStoic101 I say something short then keep listening & ask questions. "This happened to me... did you experience that too?"
Yes, I've encountered fake former friends before.
I m just friendly to everyone who is nice and ignore those who are not, that said, I don’t have ‘friends’ and I don’t get disappointed from anyone. I m my only friend🧚♂️
Being your own friend brings a unique strength and independence. How has this approach impacted your sense of peace?
I spotted a fake friend! 😄 Such a great, well thought out video! Enjoyed it very much! 🙏
Thanks so much! 😊
Thank You Sir , I now understand ,this life....💝
Very interesting and helpful in my growth..
Every person in my life is like this.
Good morning ❤
I really enjoy listening to this wisdom and stuff and I think I’m a pretty peaceful person then easy to get along with and don’t let things get to me. Keep my peace of mind I’m on the cement if I have to walk away then I will and come back later, but I really enjoy the sermons
Having a peaceful mindset and knowing when to walk away shows real inner strength. How have the sermons helped you deepen this sense of calm?
Actually the person who was AGAIN trying to get me pay with the claim she would pay me back was my sister. She won't talk to me anymore. She didn't talk to me about 38 years and appeared to make connection again. So I just feel, oh well, life goes on.
It’s tough when family dynamics become strained, but prioritizing your peace and boundaries is so important. How are you focusing on building relationships that bring positivity and mutual respect into your life?
I spoted lot of fakes friends. I have learned a lot. Thanke for your wonderfuls videos.
Learning from fake friendships allows us to set healthier boundaries. How has this journey changed the way you view and choose friends?
Perfecte view, en het werkt ook in de andere richting...
Thank you ❤
Plenty thanks for sharing & God bless. I spotted a fake friend
It's called Fair-Weather-Friends. *All* people only like you when the going's good.
Fair-weather friends can be disappointing, but they also teach us valuable lessons about who truly deserves our trust. How has this realization shaped the way you approach your connections?
I had a friend of 7 years. Thought she was a friend, boy was I wrong. I got rid of her and finally am at peace. Realized she was toxic as hell
Good for you for recognizing and acting on what was best for your peace. A Stoic would say true friends uplift you, not drain you. Could this experience be a reminder to prioritize relationships that align with your values and well being?
My life story...WHY did it take so long? Still some TRUE MEN/WOMEN out there...I pray we All find Each Other...
Life’s journey often feels longer than we expect, but every step shapes who we are. How has your story influenced your perspective on finding true, genuine connections?
I have spotted many fake friends. As long as I was working with some of them it was easy to have quick response in conversations, but later on when I no longer worked with certain people, the friendship died away quickly. I have learned a long time ago, a real true friend is there when you have a lot and when you have nothing. It's a little rare to have a Ginuwine friend around.
True friendships indeed withstand changes in circumstance, unlike those that fade when convenience ends. What qualities do you now prioritize when letting people into your circle?
Yes, I have spotted very many fake friends
Sounds like my husband I left 35 years ago
That’s alright. I’m sure they have their reasons. 🤷🏽♂️
This video is totally correct. 😢😮
Oh YES... I have spotted a fake friend...and colleague.
I have a son that as the most kind son. Im trying to move back there. Takes time.
Thank you.
I have spotted very many fake friends
How i wished i have learned this long time ago...
So TRUE!!!
I can confirm a fake person I work with.

I have spotted several fake friends😢

It’s deeply hurtful to feel unvalued, especially when someone treats others differently. How has this experience helped you recognize what you truly deserve in relationships?
I Jerry got a lot of people that treat me that they for got what I told them only men not women❤
