    I always have an issue with ‘friends’ who also only like to hear your business, but never reveal anything going on in their lives… Your life is used as conversation starters, but you’ve no clue how things are with them because they keep it surface-level. I’ve got to stop oversharing and trusting everyone with my stories 😅

      Same...but it's a colleague at work I can't choose. Cause I love my work. I just don't like that specific person. She's soooooooo shady. And always asks and listens about other ppls business, makes passive agressive comments.And is a racist. But she knows she has to communicate with me because of work and how much other colleagues respect me. So she keeps it passive agressive, collects all the info and continues the asslickery to my colleagues😂

      This is so messed up. Maybe you didnt include them in your happiness and yet theyre graceful enough to extend a helping hand in hard Times ? Maybe theyre the supporting type that loves to see you soar independently but will always be there to catch you if you fall ?
      Show grace and be grateful people still show up for you.

      @@libelulangel I agree 100% with this! Also some friends are just very empathetic in nature, which makes them easier to go to during low times, it doesn't mean they aren't happy for you during the highs! And it definitely doesn't mean they rejoice in your misery! What people do with the information you share with them is the ultimate judge of their intentions!

    I heard a psychologist say that when you and your partner are having an argument and he/she is hitting below the belt and being totally disrespectful, just say him/her - "I am not your enemy. We are on the same team."

    in my big age, I've learned this the hard way. Additionally, be leery of friends who judge your hard times especially based on experiences in your past. the worst are the ones who have experienced the SAME experiences but all of a sudden have amnesia and are on their high horse. Bottom line: EVERYONE can attest to making poor decisions especially in their younger days. no one should make you feel inferior bc trust me...they are not any better

    I completely agree with you all about friends who gloat in your misfortune, but what if its your family. I was a Regional Manager and the company decided to eliminate the position and the Directors took over. I was out of a job and when I told my mother that day she replied with oh I guess I will not be getting a Coach or Michael Kors handbag for Christmas that year, nor will I be giving her some of my bonus money. I could not believe it. She did not seem to feel bad that I lost a job as a divorced female with a home and child. She did not ask if I was ok. She did not ask if I needed anything. All my mother was concerned with was that she was not going to get something out of me. Till this day that has hurt me. This was not a friend. This was my mom. This was the one person that I thought was there for me only to find out that I was wrong. Now I try and keep good and bad news to myself. People seem to be out for what they can get out of you and that's it.

    1) Way too many people are wolves in sheep's clothing. That's why you need to be really careful about what you share & who you share it with (especially on social media). Once it comes out of your mouth, or once you hit "send", it's no longer just your business.
    2) Some people are always on their A-game around strangers because those aren't the people who "love you unconditionally". By comparison, they'll sometimes bring their C or D-game when they're around loved ones because those are the people who have "unconditional" love

    2. Many people take those closest to them for grant. It’s almost human to get used to people and get comfortable
    2. Some people are pretentious. They wanna look good to the stranger coz they need the stranger’s attention

    I agree with Adrienne about not harping on things.

Any more than that usually turns into unsolicited advice filled with negativity that has left you confused.

    This is the #1 mistake both men and women make when they fall on hard times.
    I am transparent about being in therapy trying to deal with depression over my sister's death. You would think this should be a third rail topic for my friends and associates to discuss among themselves.
    So why did I find out a few months ago certain "associates" of mine were gleefully mocking me by saying *"Did you hear Ms. Perfect is seeing a shrink? Ms. I have all the answers couldn't heal herself. Haha"*
    And when I confronted them about it, each one denied they said anything. But when I played the audio (that was shared with me) some tried to gaslight me and a couple just cried and said they were drunk. I will say it again, ONLY KEEP A SMALL GROUP OF REAL FRIENDS IN YOUR CIRCLE!
    Not everyone that says they are a friend, deserves that title.

    What these women fail to understand is that many girlfriends they and Adrienne claim she has are not her friends many are associates they just don't know it yet. If a person can find one person a true friend in a lifetime you did a great job many, no way. Even saying that some friends will hang on for decades because you give them everything they need. Remember Adrienne a word of advice, never tell anyone anything you don't want to be repeated because it will be. One of my associates told me I have too much, we no longer interact because a true friend/associate never says such a thing. She had issues with me constantly giving her things I no longer used or was given.
