TYPES OF FRIENDS TO AVOID

If all your friend does is take from you, without giving anything back in the friendship, there is no point in being friends anymore.

A good lover can complete you and make you feel alive.

And just like that, a good group of friends too, can motivate you and cheer you up.

But on the other hand, a few bad friends can drag you into the pits or ruin your life too.

Choose your friends carefully, and always make sure that the friends closest to you are the ones that can make life better for you, and not worse.

Types of friends to avoid
Here is a list of ten types of friends that you really need to avoid.

These toxic friends may seem like fun at times or even feel like
thrilling risk takers, but when the crap hits the fan, it’ll be you
under it.

The cheater

Many friendships have been crumpled and crushed, because a
best friend hit on a friend’s romantic partner.
To avoid making best friends with this type, avoid the sneaky
flirts, the sweet talkers and generally, people who try flattering you
and talking like you mean the world to them.
You’d be better off with someone who’s more true and down-to-
earth with their claims.

The competitor

Any kind of competition is healthy in every relationship but when
claws start to come out and things get extremely competitive
between friends, things can get very ugly.
The leech
A friend who constantly borrows your stuff or money or depends
too much on you is one that definitely needs to be avoided. No
one wants a one-sided relationship. If all your friend does is take
from you, without giving anything back in the friendship, there’s
no point in being friends anymore. If they’re looking for one, tell
them to take a one way trip out of your life.

The copycat

Imitation is considered to be the sincerest form of flattery, but a
friend who looks or behaves like your photocopy machine can be
very scary.
The shrink
All of us confide in our friends and ask for advice, but when your
BFF starts acting like a paid shrink who always picks flaws in your
life or relationships, it can get very annoying and depressing.
The selfish friend
This type of friend can go to any lengths for their benefit, but
behaves passively when you ask for help.

The wild child

Dangerous and unstable is how you define this type. You usually
get in trouble or always end up having to save your friend from
trouble.
The whiner
This type of friend is never satisfied with anything they have, and
they spend all their time whining and grumbling about how the
world is so unfair to them. Stay away!

The mood killer

This friend intentionally or unintentionally kills the mood as soon
as they enter into a conversation with you. They always seem to
find a flaw in anything you do or have, be it your clothes or your
love life.
They are like the lone dark cloud hovering over you on a sunny
day. Nothing positive ever comes out of their mouth.
They are never short of sarcastic comments or depressing
thoughts.

The swinger

This friend is partially bonkers because their mood swings change
from being nice to totally snappy in seconds without any
provocation. And this friend may just use you like a punching bag
to express their feelings, be it frustrations or happiness. Who
needs to be around someone whose moods swing like a
pendulum?
Life can be a bed of roses when you have the perfect friends to
share it with, but if you have to put up with these ten types of
friends, all you’d find is frustrations.
Spot the toxic friends in your life and stay away from them, for
your own good.
