An acquaintance merely enjoys your company, a fair-weather companion flatters when all is well, a true friend has your best interests at heart and the pluck to tell you what you need to hear.E. A. Bucchianeri
Hey my loves!
Welcome back to another post! I wanted to do a topic, that is rarely talked about and you would be surprised that you have experience it yourself.
I write on the topic of friendship so much because that relationship is just as important as romantic relationships.

People love being in your energy because they see you thriving, even after they projected their insecurities onto you. Once they are triggered and see you doing good, they want to come back. Stay away from people like this. The tables have now turned.
People who aren’t a good friend
I have learned the hard way that many people that I have called friend, turned out to be jealous of me the whole time. I had family try to warn me, but I didn’t see it. Considering, I have the habit of only seeing the good in people.
Be Careful
Be careful of those who only want to be around you, when you have something that they want. I don’t mind taking my friends along with me for success, but if you weren’t there for me during my storms, why should you get to enjoy my rainbow?
What is it?
Fair Weather Friend
fair-weather friends friend who only associates with you when they have nothing better to do. Someone who may only stick around in exciting situations but when times are somewhat boring, leave your side.

You can’t come in and out of my space when it suits you. You’re just going to have to watch from the outside. I will not reintegrate people, that I worked so hard to let go of. I will not tolerate that anymore. There really are people in you life for seasons, but I can’t have you here if you want to be here for Summer and Spring and not Fall and Winter.
always thought of myself as a loving person. But she was right. I had been a fair-weather friend. As long as she was happy and nice, I loved back. But if she was unhappy or upset, I would feel blamed and then argue or distance myselfJohn Gray
Some people only wants what comes with you. Some of those characteristics you have, yea they want that when it fits into their life. Be careful.
The Playlist
It has been a while since I’ve made a playlist. I decided to make one to help both sides understand that a fair-weather friend is terrible.
