Oh yes. People like this is almost perfect in his/her behaviors to others that when we tell people of his true self, people will think we are the crazy one. I am usually a good judge of character, so when I encounter a person with this character I will tell my friends, I don't like her/ him. At first when I told this to a friend, she insisted that I was wrong, I totally did not know him, I am the jealous one. In time, she admitted that I was right and that she was sorry for doubting me. Just remember that nobody is perfect. So when you encounter someone who is so faultless and perfect, than you many face a mask here, not the true self.

It is not the person acting like good guy but mentally he is very terrible. It is thing about their attitude. Every person will sometimes gets the time to act like good or bad. Tell me frankly , is that any one wont pretend like that at any time in their total life ? If they ans honestly every one will sometimes pretended. But they wont commit that statement.

Yes I have. I'll call her Dell. She was a very nice person, always inviting people to parties, always ready to give out food. I even tutored Dell in math. Then I started seeing that she had a problem. She got a job delivering flyers. One day I looked in her closet and the fliers were there. One day she told me she borrowed money from my aunt. "She has money," Dell told me as to why she didn't pay my aunt back. The horrible part about all of this is that I dated her! She was very good at deception. Dell was so good that she could tell you it was snowing outside and you'd believer her. One day she had me dress up and go to a job interview that didn't exist. Another time, she gave a party at her "friend" Joan's house. I later found out that Joan didn't invite all of those people to her house! One day Dell lied and said I was interested in Joan, which I wasn't.
Dell has always been good at things, "If only she would use her talents for good instead of evil," Maxwell Smart used to say. She was good at interior decorating. She did some jobs and made good money. Then she stopped. Recently, she finally got me to work on a web site. Dell had a business making oils and lotions. She kept bugging me until I relented. I went to her business meetings, got free samples, and worked on her site. Things looked promising. When it was time for her to pay up, she said she didn't have any money. Mainly because she stopped working the business. There were other people who worked for her who also didn't get paid. During this time, she ran for city commission. She almost won! If only the people knew. I tell them, but they don't listen.

Enough with the torture! Just walk away from her completely! Agghh how could you bear such a thing? I would have dumped her and then expose her scams. Just cut all ties with her and tell her goodbye and don't ever let her sweet talk you or let her into your place. Just stay away from a person like that or she will ruin you completely because she is just nutts!

I have just read my 12 response for this topic and I found one thing.There are so many people who have been hurted by those two faced person.I feel sorry for them when I knew that and I feel very angry to those people who loves to hurt others for whatever reasons they had.But as one person response,we are all two faced person because there are just good and bad within us.I agree with that .But still I feel that the level of goodness and badness are quite different with each other.There are some people who will keep on act like a 100 percent bad guy ( And these kinds of people are easy to know since you can see nothing good in them and they always admit that they are the bad guys all the times).There are some people who are bad on one hand and good on other hand as well.This kinds of people are living quite a pianful life in their deep consciousness.Because they know there is some bad things in them but they can't overcome these kinds of struggle within their heart.There are another two faced person who always hurt other with their badness and never think that it is wrong.I think this last group of people are the most dangerous people because they feel notrhing wrong in hurting others and they sometimes will enjoy it very much.I hope that all the people getting hurt (for whatever reason it was : navie,relationship,love,emotion etc.),can get heal and many forgiveness can take place after certain period of times.

oh so many! I mean not at the same time but I think everyone would have probably met one. it was so hard to distinguish this from the real people for the first time. Only time will tell you about these people.But there were just those kind that are so hard to tell until they have done some bad things to you. God bless them!

Yes, in fact my husband is like that. It seems crazy to me that people are always telling me how nice he is, but then I have to remind myself he is very different with them than he is with me and my daughter. He's literally two different people. Unfortunately I see the bad side of him whereas everyone else sees the good.

I know what you mean friend I have been there myself and it is frustrating because you are the one who is portrayed as the bad guy! Ugghhh... if I were in your shoes I would have left him and say good riddance. But well that is just me though. I cannot live with someone I could never trust because for me that is so so cruel.

Yes, I ever met one. People like this always are well ahead of us or try to create a good impression in front of us but actually he/she has a bad purpose behind of us. Usually this happened in our daily life, which arises from competition with other people, for example, at the work environment. Apparently, someone could change if he/she does not want to compete and want to get a result quickly for a better position. However, I still respect and treat him/her as a friend. All I do is just work better than before and minimize any errors so that he/she cannot take the chance of mistakes made by others including me. Keep trying the best and be a simple and sincere person, that is the key to face people like this.

I think that there are alot of people out there that come across as a really nice person only to discover later on that they are your worst enemy.I think that there are also alot of people that can be really nice to your face yet the next minuite they are stabbing you in the back aswell as being two faced to other people that you know.They are the people that think that they will not get found out.I try to avoid people like that.

It is nothing new in this world that is full of disguises and fake people. We cannot control this. But we have to make the initiative to have such boundary that we are not abused. We should also see to it that we are not that person. A person who are just acting good to others but deep inside is the ugly heart within.

I think that everyone has a mask, even if it may sound harsh. It's not possible to be fully themselves in front of other people - you always have something inside you that you wish others won't ever find out, may it be because you fear their reactions or you want them to think you're different.
But when people act all good when all they have are bad intentions, that's the horrible thing. I got hurt by a bunch of people lately, they acted like friends until the day they noticed they couldn't take more profit out of me, because I chose to leave University and study alone for my certifications, so they couldn't "steal" my notes on lessons and so on. I was deeply hurt by them, and thought I was the most naive person in the world, believing that they were my true friends. I didn't get a single word of encouragement by them.

Yes, I have had this happen before, but not so much now these days. I'm not a great judge of character. I usually have to get to know a person to really know them, and by then it's usually too late. So now I tend to judge another by his or her actions, no matter how nice the person might seem to be.
One person talked all the time about what a good Christian she was, but I noticed whenever I was out with her she would be mean to the people who worked in the restaurants or if there was a store clerk or hotel clerk she always acted like she was somehow superior to them and treated them in a shabby manner for no reason since they were always nice and tried to help us. What kind of good person is that? She didn't practice her beliefs obviously and when I asked her why she just started shouting at me. So I just stay away from her now. She lives in another state and almost every year before this one I would get a Christmas card from her that just said, "Why haven't I heard from you?" Not, "How are you, are you okay?" or anything like that or "Sorry I haven't been in touch myself " or anything like that, just that demanding line "Why haven't I heard from you?" I nevered answered. I didn't get a Christmas card this year so hopefully she got the message.
Now I tend to judge others by their actions more than their words and that has helped me a great deal in keeping people like this out of my life now.

I have had many people like this in my life. Some eventually do show their colors to others but often it is too late for me. I am growing wiser with age though, and am learning to observe people and their behavior, as well as their speech to judge the character. There are very few who are able to completely hide their darkness. Most who are two faced and have wicked intentions eventually do show who they are. It is a matter of paying attention to their actions and speech.
As I said, there are very few people who are such good actors they can hide their character from others.
Whenever I have found someone to be untrue to the character they have presented originally I have to say Adios goodbye to them. These people can be very damaging to others, and I do not need that in my life. I figure it this way: I try my best to uplift others and help them when I can. I do not deserve anyone who tries to harm me, as my intentions for others are for their benefit not my own.
Happy Mylotting!

Yup, I have experienced that before and until now I don't want to be connected to that person ever because he very terrible. He sent me a friend request in facebook, but ignored it because I do not want to have anything to do with him. He was one of the main reasons why my only love and I almost did not last for 5 years. There are people who are good in this and it is very irritating.
