why there are people who seem to like you when you are in front of them and then stabbing you at the back when you are gone? when you are around, they will not say anything to you as if everything is okay. But when you are not around, they comment on everything you do and said even the slightest thing you did and said is a very big deal for them.. have you experience this? what do yout hink we should given a situation like this?

Oh yes I know a few people like that, a lot who say they are christian are like that and then turn on you. Which is why we left churches in the past. Have had a few neighbors like that as well in the past. You just have to avoid people like that if able.

I konw of some church goers who are like that. They tend to see the wrong of others and not themselves. You are correct, people like this should be avoided.

hello nj, People of different behavior and attitude is everywhere. We met those kind of people in the neighborhood and in office. You can easily determine those kinds,when someone is always agreeing us,and not giving us correction,i am sure that person is hypocrite. True friends are the ones who always tell us our mistakes and wrong doings,yet stayed with us no matter what it takes.

You are right, people who correct our mistakes are the true people who are really concern in our welfare.

wow, this is hard especially when one of your family member is a hypocrite. It is very difficult to tell them they are wrong because they will only see the wrong in others but not them.

We have someone like this in our office and unfortunately she has much influence here. She always acts swee and nice. She even bought me some slices of cake during valentines but she tries to turn the manager against me all the time. So I just stay away and try not to come accross her. I do my work and dont mind whatever I hear.

I also do that if I think that I cannot really do something about them. To just stay away from trouble.

Yes, not just one, and I think they're everywhere. And maybe its been there before, long before we were born. A part of humanity that we just have to get used to... Whenever I encounter these type of people, I just walk away. You can never put out a fire with fire they say. Anyway, they don't know me as much as I know myself so it wont hurt.

Sometimes I also walk away from them, but sometimes when the least people you expect tend to be the hypocrite, it is saddening.

Good for you, you know one when you get to know one. For some, they cannot distinguish soon the hypocrites so sometimes it is too late for them to make a gap to these people.

Unfortunately there are plenty of people out there as you have described. I tend to avoid them if I can and if everyone else cut them off they'd soon have no-one to back-stab. The trouble is that a lot of people are too cowardly to do the right thing even when they know how bad the hypocrite is - I guess that makes them hypocrites too!

Well, that happened to me once or twice. When i am in front of them they would compliment me. But when i am not around they would back stab me. I came to know that because a true friend who heard about it told me. What i did, i confronted her. She denied saying them, but i didn't believe her because i know she envies me. I don't know what is it she envies in me really . So i warned her that if she will not stop back stabbing me , i will report her to top management. She stopped.

Good for you she stopped but there are some who doesnt. They are not satisfied until you are down and affected.
