Ever had a two-faced friend?

Post Reply New Topic

When I was in Year 6/7 I had a friend who was actually quite horrible without me realising it. He is one of those people who is a complete sod at school, and is one of those people who thinks they're 'hard'.

He often made fun of others and frankly I joined in, because I wanted to fit in, but I don't do that any more.

Examples of being two-faced: We used to watch Dick and Dom in Da Bungalow (a children's show consisting of two batty men) and he took an interest in it. But at school another boy was sitting on the table and I said 'Do you like Dick and Dom in Da Bungalow?' but then this so-called 'friend' said 'Oh my god, you watch that?'

When I was invited to one of his sleepovers, he invited other people, who literally abused me and this 'friend' did not do anything about it, and said to me when I inevitably groaned, "Shut up you p[too racist to say]!" The sleepover consisted of about 7 idiots indifferent from himself, who punched me, pulled down my shorts (ooer!), spilt tea over me, even took the piss because I wore pyjamas (?!), and also even for calling a duvet...basically a duvet (that's what it's called isn't it?!). And so this bastard of a friend had lots of mood swings. One minute he said, "Oh, that's really tight (meaning unfair)" and then "Shut up you p[too racist to say]!"

Have any of you had experiences like these? If you have I would like to hear about it.

Yes. I know someone who will be nice to me one moment and then be calling me names and talking about me behind my back the next minute. I think she takes advantage of how nice I can be, but she hasn't seen me unleash my temper yet.

HA.

A better question would be: "Who hasn't had a two faced friend?"

Every friend i've ever had has been two faced, and i've been two faced about alot of people, too. It's human nature, but it really is horrible.

Autistics can be two-faced, too.

That happened to me in primary school, but I sort of assumed that people grew out of that habit. It could be a 'chameleon' thing - fitting in with you when you're around, then behaving completely differently around others.

Yes,and I dumped thier ass,too.

I was pretty good friends with this person who, when the wave of popularity beckoned, turned on me and joined all the other dim-witted and ego-tripping members of a clique in ridiculing me and turning people against me.

I know I sound callous and ignorant, but what racist term are you referring to? Considering the British overtones in your manner, only one comes to mind which is an abbreviated version of a proper nationality.

It's a word that people often used to say (they probably still do) at school to someone from India (we have quite a lot of people from India at our school), the word is 'paki'.

Technically speaking, the term 'paki' is an abbreviated form of Pakistani and is therefore directed at people hailing from that country. Though it can, I believe be used for people hailing from the Subcontinent in a broader sense.

It gained popularity as an derogatory expression by British tabloids at Pakistani immigrants during the 60's and has been used increasingly ever since. A very famous book in this regard is 'My mate Shofiq' by Jan Needle. Fortunately I didn't encounter any such bigoted language during my trip to the UK earlier on.

I used to have a two-faced friend; he treated me like crap. One day, I told him point-blank that I didn't want to be friends anymore. I haven't made any attempts to contact him ever since.
