When a Reddit user asked people to share when and how they realized their friends were actually “fake” friends, many stories came pouring in. It turns out that fake friendships can seem very real and sincere and can last for years until you see that the person you thought was your friend is really not. In this thread, Reddit users talked about what helped them realize their friendships weren’t genuine, and those lessons are very valuable.
The Story:
My best friend of 10 years called me on my wedding day to say she couldn’t come because she was very sad about her recent divorce. It turned out she had a date instead. Our whole friendship was fake; it just took me until that moment to realize it.
