You are going to meet a lot of people in your life, some good and some bad. The thing with the bad ones is that you need to figure out which ones you should avoid. If you’re having trouble with that don’t worry.
I’m going to talk about the people who aren’t good for you:
1. The bully
The bully never grew up, he still thinks making fun of others and belittling them is the way to go. They’re insecure and only feel better if they’re making someone else feel bad or small.
2. The one who keeps borrowing money and never returns it
I’m not saying you should be stingy and never give anyone any money. But if you have someone who constantly borrows money and doesn’t return it, be careful about giving them more than you are comfortable with.
3. People who are self-obsessed
There’s nothing wrong with loving yourself, but if it becomes border-line psychotic to a point that you post a selfie everyday and start fishing for compliments - stay away.
4. Those who say they will do something but never do
You know who we’re talking about, that person who says they’re gonna quit smoking from tomorrow or lose those 10kgs starting tomorrow or do that work you need but never actually gets it done. Recognise the pattern. S/He’s a flake!
5. Control freaks
Control freaks never listen to anyone. They want things done a certain way and that is their way only. Ain’t no one got time for that!
6. Show offs
“Oh look at that picture of me on vacation in the Caribbean”, “Oh look at my new car/watch/bag”, “Oh look at me achieving greatness”. We get it, you like being praised. Calm down.
7. Mr/Ms Negative
They will drain you with their negativity and keep bogging you down. They will find something to complain about. And if there is nothing to complain about they will find a reason to complain about not complaining.
8. Yeh Meray saath hi kyu hota hai
These ‘victims’ who’ve never done anything wrong and are always dealt the worst hand are bad people to hang around with because they NEVER take responsibility for any of their mistakes.
10. People who are really envious
These people will never be happy for you, no matter how good they have it, if you have something they don’t they will envy you forever.
11. Someone who talks ill about other people ALL the time
If this person talks about someone with you, they are definitely talking about you to someone else. Beware.
12. People who like to see other people in trouble
The highlight of their day is if someone gets in trouble or something bad happens to someone else around them. They LOVE it.
13. Someone who is arrogant
Arrogance is never an attractive quality. Someone who is arrogant feels like they are better than everyone around them. They’re usually not.
14. Judgmental people
If they’re judging other people, they’re judging you.
