Posted: Post subject: fake people?Would you really know one? |
|
|
I have started a thread before about fake pics on profiles and got some pretty good responses.Now let me address a different aspect of fakeness.Let's say that you have a co-worker that always smiles at you and always says things to you like I love your hair or I love your suit.They always speak to you away from everyone else or will come over and sit down with you at ur cubicle or at ur break.When they are approaching you always see them smiling at the others and holding out a finger like saying they will be right back.This same person may even invite you to a party but at this party some others that you see this one speaking to all the time begin to pick at you.This one says something like stop picking on her or him and looks at you and says something like don't pay them any attention,their just jealous.Now let's say that there is another co-worker that tells you that you shouldn't waste ur time with that person but because this person stays mostly to themselves and the other one is popular,which one to you choose to listen to?Eventually the popular one asks you for something that costs you in one way or the other,now when you have waited what seems like an eternity you ask for the loan back.This person then begins a rant about how you are so jealous over them and you won't leave them alone and how ur so clingy.Who should you have listened to especially now that ur life has become unbearable because of all the back-biting and gossip about you behind the walls.When does it register that you have been set-up?....p.s pls try to keep from dissecting each word and just try to get an overview befor e commenting.Also if you choose not to comment that's really ok too.In any case gbu all and good luck in your choses

Well i must say given the second part of the scenario, that I would distance myself from the "popular one".
Quote: you ask for the loan back.This person then begins a rant about how you are so jealous over them and you won't leave them alone and how ur so clingy.
I mean that says it all. but I must admit the scenario before that I must say it is hard to determine, I mean the popular seemed to stick up for you and all. it is hard to know when to trust someone sometimes.

`the weird behavior at the party thing would have been the end of the relationship.
I have very little patience with that kind of juvenile "picking on me" BS. As for listening to someone else tell me to ignore another person, not me. I make up my own mind about people and do my own thing.
The whole thing sounded hinkey from the start and frankly, I would not have gone to that party to begin with.

`I agree with cookinbubbles, to begin with i dont listen to people and the whole "dont talk to this person". And for me personally i try and distance my personal life from my work life. there are very few coworkers that i consider true friends.
I dont think i would of stayed at a party where i was being picked at. But at the end of the day, we never know when even the true friends will turn back and stab you in the back. Trust is earned, at least that is what i always hear.

Wow! That sounded like the premise to every coming of age teen drama 0.o
Which brings me to this question: How do one know they're not being played? I mean, outside looking in, you can easily spot that situation, but can one REALLY spot it on their own without going through it? My post back and I'm already in a mind----. Sorry about the language.

I agree, I have maintained that as an outsider looking in one can always see what others are doing. But in the situation it is hard to see it happening

`Usually the quiet loner in the corner hears and sees more of what is going on around them because they aren't busy talking all the time.. listen to the quiet one. Your already doubting the sincerity of the other one. Listen to yourself.
