    Its saddest when the frenemy is your on biological sister/brother or your own mother. It hits different. And when they get the family to gang up on you, even the family's social circle, and extend it to your social circle, then you know things are really really thick.

It's like in their head you're not a "project" for them to work on or "broken" for them to fix, so they don't know how to function around you. It's really weird. But I'm not gonna spend time trying to understand...I love my peace too much SO bye bye 💕😎

    I’m an empath. I have dealt with a lot of hate in my life. People I didn’t even do anything to just hate me and give me attitude. I used to think it was me, then as I get older I realised my confidence intimidates them . The competition is something else . The hate me , criticises me spread false rumour about me yet everything I do they wanna do 😀. It’s so terrible it’s unreal. You have no idea guys. The new me created boundaries, loves my own company. I must be that special for people to always want to do me dirty. A lot happier with life since I started loving people from a distance.

      Yeah had a few colleagues who always tried to do a 'friendly' bop on my head. Similar pattern. They thought I would get mad, maybe hoping to get me into trouble if I acted out, but I think they got more mad that I didn't. Yea I only have 2 people I've known for more than 10 years that I speak to. They say you need to put yourself out there and filter out the bad apples, but sometimes you may find out too late and for what purpose? Yeah I like cooking, doing my diy projects and watching YT. My mum calls me a hermit but I'm ok with that ✌

    I was married to a frenemy and didn't realize it until the sly things he said about me got back to me from several friends and family members. He actually said something about me not doing my part as a wife (right after having a baby) to my family. My Aunt heard what he said and called my Mom and my Mom called me. I was done with him then. He was trying to set me up for something, then. I scooped up my baby and left immediately. People like that are so dangerous that you are safer with a thug on the street.

    I cut off my frenemy 2 years ago. We have known each other for over 30 years, but in 2020 she started showing signs of jealousy. I didn't ignore it, I kept mental notes of the things that she would say to me. The last straw was she tried to shade me on FB, so I unfriended her. Then she started texting me non-stop, so I blocked her.

      2 days to ask her boyfriend she got mad and said what does he have to do with this got mad and ended the call there were previous signs that I ignored saying we all have issues we need to work on but no she didn’t like me and told her man all my business so good bye and God bless

    I finally let my frienemy go after 9 years. She picked me up when she felt like it and put me down. We would go out from time to time. I invited her several times to my apartment and wanted to see hers, that never happened. She kept me at arms length. When I called, she texted. When I texted, no answer for 2 weeks, then she answered like nothing happened. I was always available for her, celebrated her, was concerned for her through her illness. But she was not there for me. When I dropped off the face of the earth, she reached out more than once through a friend on Facebook to try and get to me. Nope, it's too late, I felt bad about myself for too long.

    First I'd like to mention that I absolutely LOVE your fabulosity, positive energy and self love that you express. In regards to the subject at hand, I've discovered that my two older sistes are my frienemies which is really sad. I didn't realize this until I was in my mid- thirties. I'm now 54 and it seems that the hate that they have for me has gotten worse. I've survived sickness, divorce (my sister slept with my husband) but it didn't break me. This really pissed them off.

    I did this during the pandemic. I kicked frenemies and our mutual friends out of my life. I had to change phone numbers to avoid being contacted by them. Yes, I was that aggressive. It is amazing how much my life has changed. So many things I was working and praying for, for years, just came so easily back-to-back. Frenemies do carry bad energy around that contaminates one’s life. I didn’t know the signs earlier; but now I do and Aunty Funmi did NOT miss one detail 😅😂

She took me to a family reunion of a guy she wanted but he didn't want her. His parents sat me down and said "She's not a friend to you and you all don't have anything in common. You need to get away from her." When we got back home I distance myself from her and we haven't spoken in years.

    Relationships will belong to 5 general classes. Level 1 - No commitment just cordial; Level 2 - Civil community/team spirit but no trust.
    Level 3 - More commitment and depth but with limits; Level 4 - Level 3 ➕ trust ( family should be at this level).
    Level 5 - Level 4 ➕ absolute trust ( All things are laid bare)
    Once we are able to categorise the relationship, disappointment and betrayals are less likely.

They don't know where I live and will never be invited. I can't say it enough, 'love them from afar' and tell them n-o-t-h-i-n-g. Leave them in the dark and keep the distance. See straight through their maybelline...

    I guess I’ve had so few close friendships I can’t think of too many frenemies. One who readily comes to mind (two actually, both tight with each other because they were miserable with their lives) had insulting remarks after my daughter was born. They were miserable with either the children they had or not being on the same page with a spouse on starting a family, so weren’t happy for me and mine.
    Looking back the signs were there they were miserable & looking to take it out on someone. One couldn’t even be happy when a medical exam I was dreading came back in the clear “You can’t always trust doctors, a family member of mine is in the late stages of that cancer.”
    I’m done with those frenemies and enjoying my little family and pets.

    I can totally relate, sometimes we give excuse for frenemies behavior because of our nice nature, but eventually they will do something that will make us make the decision to let go of them. I had this friend for like 20+ years, yes, way before I went to college and now I'm 45ys . I just told her off about a year ago. She just was never really there for me. Never help when I needed it, only when she feel like, which is when I don't need it.🙁

    OMG Fumi, you completely described my old friend's behavior toward me.
    I had a friend in which our friendship had changed over the years. We weren't as close. So, earlier last year I would often stop by her shop and buy something to support her. If I didn’t have the money to buy something, I would still stop by to check on her. Of course, she didn't check on me. When my work schedule changed and I could no longer stop by her shop, she NEVER once contacted me to see if anything was wrong or if I was OK. She showed no concern at all. Then I noticed she made a shady post on Facebook and that was it for me. I no longer consider her a friend, frenemy or anything.

I have distanced myself from all of my friends really because I have had frenemies that I only got to know after I had distanced myself from them unintentionally. And I have had friends who wanted to take everything I had and use it for their benefit. I have just stopped trusting friends at this point. I speak to people yes, I am kind to them but I keep my distance for a reason.

    Excellent advice sis Fumi!💙💐I have had to cut off a frenemy too! My mom and some of my other friends saw her from a thousand miles away but you know us girls alway think we are “wiser” than our parents and I didn’t want to cut her off because I thought we were “good” friends.
    She went dark and vicious immediately after my engagement too, I had advised myself and quietly withdrew until I traveled out of the country. I thank God for that experience today though because now I am better equipped to advise my daughter about girls like that.

    Sometimes a frenemy can be a family member, too. That’s sad when that happens. I have a cousin who is married and has two beautiful children with her husband, and yet she can’t seem to keep my name out of her mouth.
    A little over a handful of years ago, I ran into an ex at a wedding reception. At some point during the night when we were catching up, he shared that my cousin had been in a group setting (she was friends with his cousin) and she was trying to speak authoritatively about my life, that she knew such and such and such about my romantic life because we’re cousins. Never mind that she and I don’t hang. On top of that, my ex told me that he was refuting what she said because he, of all people, would’ve had more romantic/intimate insight than she ever would. Yet, she was trying to convince the people at that gathering of certain things about me.
    She does that with too many people, even though on paper she has it all: the marriage, the children, the career, the home.

    My mother and sisters are exactly like that friend you described. They are petty and jealous, and no longer in my life. However, in their case it is very frustrating bc they outwardly behave and come off as angels, and churchgoers. So many people think they are awesome. Except anyone who has gotten very close to them, even for a short time.

    I tell my daughter, not everyone is your friend, sometimes you will have to make those friends more to the balcony (so she can see how fabulous you really are) lol
    When she make a lot of noise mot being nice, rude and hurtful, you will have to open the doors and tell her to go. "The doors of the church are open" please leave! 😀
