I bet that at some point in your life you have experienced the displeasure of having to live with someone who is considered a fake person. Many times these people are within our family and make living together difficult and irritating.

Fake people, at the beginning of a relationship, are charismatic, well-behaved, friendly, and helpful. They engage you and easily learn things about you. But a sign of fakeness is that these people readily share other people's secrets with you. As they tell you about their friend's life, they learn more and more about you so they can share them with others as well.

The damage this kind of gossip causes is enormous and can ruin the lives of some people who have deep secrets that cannot be revealed. But the fake ones don't care. These people are unhappy, have low self-esteem, and want to tell interesting stories so people will get closer. So be careful who approaches you and don't tell just anyone your most intimate stories.

Here are some tips:

  1. Don't tell your problems, dreams and mistakes, don't talk bad about someone around a fake person.
  2. Keep your distance if possible, then smile and pretend you're interested, but don't forget, keep your mouth shut.
  3. Fighting with fake people is a waste of time. They already know you're characterless, so nothing you say will offend them, but it could become the next gossip story. Maybe they'll tell you how out of control you are.
  4. Pretend not to understand, say you don't know the person he's referring to, but be friendly; cell phones are great for quickly removing you from the conversation.
  5. Don't feel angry with these people, they ruin lives and yours doesn't need to be one of them, stay calm, don't fall for it, don't let these people take anything away from you, not even your joy.

Always be suspicious of someone who tells you everything another person does or every secret they discover about someone else, it's like being a lover, if the guy cheats on his wife with you he will cheat on you with someone else if you become his wife this time!
