Have you ever had a friend that is like this? Very kind and sweet when talking to you directly, even greats you when you meet each other? but when your gone they start to talk behind your back...? I just had a very annoying day yesterday. I went to school to work something and i entered the classroom my classmates was talking to each other.they greeted me and I responded to them by saying hello.When I was about to go out of the room i turned my back to ask If our professor will be in his office today then omg! i saw one of my classmate raising her eyebrows at me!She hurriedly change her facial expression to a smiling one. Have you ever witness this kind of people I mean caught them in the act?

Yes, there are some two-faces people around me. They can say sweet words in front of you, or just in the phone, while they might call you stuipd or idiot behind you. You will find this is normal, especially when you graduate and start to work. However, there are still good people in this society and always treat you sincerely. Just make ourselves simple and treat other people sincerely and you will be happier. Good luck to you~

Omg... girl I keep on think if those people who calls us on the phone does this weird faces like raising brows or rolling their eyes.I saw my teacher rolled her eye this to a student she called, it was very inappropriate and mean. Now I'm scared if they will call for something because they usually as for my help when we are doing functions.

It's OK and take it easy. We cannot control other people's feelings and behaviours. What we can do is controlling our attitudes. And you may find that things will be simpler once we think simply. After all, there're always more good people in this world. Enjoy this weekend~

I do not know, is there a friend of mine, who like it. I do not care, what was done by my friend, behind me. I sincerely befriend them, and try always good to my friends. If I had a mistake, I will apologize.

I understand, your a type of person that will forget any bad stuff your friends said to you. Its a good characteristic, but soem people will take advantage of your kindness.

I used to work with one. Unfortunately for me, she used to be my subordinate and I understand why she displayed actions like this towards me. She'd act nice in front of me especially when she wants a favor or a leave from work, since I was in charge of their schedules at work, but when I turn my back she'd be up and about doing her mischievous deeds...Since we've been friends before she became my subordinate and the fact that she's my senior in age and the employment period at work, I felt obligated to always stay patient with her so as not to create issues that may grow big. She didn't like the fact that I became a supervisor first and then became a team leader and then she ended up in my team. I guess that was pride that's why she sometimes resorts to these types of actions, and I have caught her in the act with her facial expression. (^_^) But in the end, we're still friends outside of work.

I would love to say I'm innocent of ever being two-faced, but unfortunately I can't. Let me tell you, the one time I did it, I still regret to this day. I was in high school, and I was pretty much friends with everyone, even Regina. I gave into peer pressure (not an excuse, I should have known better)(it was the one and only time I gave into peer pressure as well) and my close friends would be nice to her in front of her, but when she would leave, they would talk about her and call her names. I never called her names, but I didn't stand up for her, and the one week I gave into peer pressure, her friend heard it, and told her. She confronted all of us, but would never speak to us again, even after apologizing. I found her on Facebook a year or two ago, and tried apologizing again, but she wouldn't respond. I realized that day how much talking about someone behind their back can hurt. When it happened to me, I always just ignored it because I have better things to worry about, so I never thought about how it might make others feel. I lost a good friend that day. Again, I cannot excuse what I did, I can only learn from my mistakes. I hope someday others will learn from theirs as well. Sometimes people never stop doing it, and some change. I wouldn't worry about your classmate, there is better things to worry about that actually makes a long term difference in your life. You have a few choices. One you could ignore her and kick her to the curb. Two, you could ignore it and let it bother you. Three, you could ignore it and just forgive her for her stupidity. Four, you could confront her, which may make it stop, but chances are, it can make it worse. I'm sure there is other options, but those are the ones that came to my mind first. I know its easier said then done, just ignore her, turn your attention to finding a true friend, and enjoy life. Take care.

I know a few people that use to be my friends that were like that and i will say that these kinds of people never change.I tend to have friends that do not talk about other people as i fel that if they are talking about other people then they tend to talk about you to other people.If i was you avoid people like this, as people like that will bring you down with them.

Yep... kind of like... "I wonder what you say about me when I'm not around?" I think that when I hear people cutting other people up behind their backs.. yet sugar wouldn't melt in their mouth fast enough when talking to them face to face. I used to see that more when I worked.

Oh, I have lost count and I think the numbers are still growing. In this life, we meet a lot of people and most are just plain making it happen. We should not look at people as they are but what they are inside. Some maybe misbehaving but in the inside lies a good heart. We should not lose hope on believing on the true merits of man as God's creation.

You have a point there.Some people acts hostile to others but they are really good inside ,but this is a little bit different because a real good hearted person wont back stab you right?. I haven't lose hope and faith on people especially my friends I'm not the kind of person that will say "OK whatever i will survive without a friend" something like that.

The people around me, seemed to all have two faces. In front of me, they are very good, sometimes even complimented me. But, behind me, they say bad things about me. Sometimes I feel very sick, da not accept being treated like that. But, I do not care about them, I'm only friends with them, and I am trying to do good, to everyone. Whatever they say about me, I do not care.

Yes...I had a such a friend when i was in Engineering College. And he did all those thing like behaving in a very polite manner,greets me whenever we met and all such things. But then when I came to know about him I felt very bad and sad. But first i didn't believed that he was double faced. Later one day, I caught him red handed! And that was the last time I saw him. After that day i never saw his face and never talked to him!!

Oh that is a day ruin-er! I hated two faced people. The pretenders. Oh well, people will always have that kind of attitude in some parts of their lives. The most common time of it surfacing is in schooldays. Hmm. Better avoid them for your own good.

There's a lot of two faced people in this world already. I've witnessed a lot of those in school, work, malls, you name it. Those people are really annoying. They're only good to you when they see you, but when your back's turned, they become different. It would be a lot better if they don't show their faces infront of us. Those plastic people should just melt!

I think we all have had so called friends like that. It is annoying to say the least. It makes one feel self conscience. You start doubting yourself. Don't let it bother you. Just think of that person as a very small insignificant person, that is not worth the bother of getting upset. Try and not let it bother you. Hugs

You could be right Pepai, they just might be jealous. I don't know why people act like that. It will not get them any further in life, infact others may see how that person acts and stop hanging around them, as they don't care for their attitude. And as they say what goes around comes around. Some day that person will be made to feel the way you did when they talked about you behind your back. Have a nice afternoon.

Your very correct Mary why bother those people, better focus on whats the opportunities in front of you right? I think they are jealous because we have alot of opportunities to choice while they have none haha...

There will always be people like that no matter what the environment is. I had people like that in high school. college and until now. Some people just don't like other people I guess. I am a little guilty on that but I am not a person who will be really friendly to you but I hate you in person. If I don't like a person, I maybe civil to them but I will not act friendly.

True i guess this kind of people will always be around us. I have done this kind of stuff sometimes but not to my close friends just to my enemies and people who are mean. But avoiding this kind of things is better.

I am civil to people I don't like, but I won't act friendly toward them either. I don't believe in sinking to their level.

hi pepai! i hope it's not too late for me to respond. i have been out for days so now i am making up with my misses. wow! that's a really caught in the act two faced person. hmm.. i have met a lot of people like her (your classmate) i was even named like plastic! back then in college because of some minus and added stories i guess because when i reviewed my statement i didn't see anything wrong with it. unfortunately the gossip had spread telling everyone that i am a two faced person. personally i do not be friend people whom i hate. well the aura thing? i don't know if that goes true to you too but the feeling that once you just see the person you feel like "i don't like her!" i am not the pa-close type of person. lol,this discussion made me remember things in my college life.

Yes, I had known a couple of friends with this kind of attitude. One of my friends is really close to me, she was so open about everything. Being her friend for a long time, I noticed that she loves to talk to our other friends' back. I thought she was only doing it to others. I was so shocked to learn that she was also back stabbing me. And she was a sweet girl ugh.

Thats not very nice of a person. I never catched someone in the act, but , I know a lady that used to be my client in a clothing store and she was very nice with me I liked her a lot , and one day she wanted me to give her some dresses that were separated for another lady , I said no to her . so. she got very mad , and i went to look for something inside , when I cameback she still was smiling to me, but emplorers told me that she said many bad things about me like like calling me "that woman". I got really sad , that some people are like that with two faces, I still remember her , I never treated that same . Now , I am very careful with people that are too nice, I dont involve with them too much. I like sincere people. I can imagin how You felt at that time. Have a good day.

Safety69, I have encountered the same type of people when I worked retail. Sometimes I don't think the person doing the bad mouthing realizes that many times it gets back to the person. I would have people act friendly to me, I deny a refund or to allow them to purchase more then allowed on a sales item, then when I leave, they start bad mouthing me in earshot of my employees to their friends. I was very close with my employees and everything made it back to me.

I think that person only uses the word "friendship" for her own gain and not to actually have really friends just for money.Be careful of this kind of people they are like leeches that uses us to gain something.
