How can you tell when someone isn't being genuine?

illneverbeold

How can you tell when someone isn't being genuine? I've had this struggle my whole life and am really proud of my self when I notice someone acting nice and being fake. Can you relate? Do you have a method of distinguishing the difference?

  • I'm sorry, but I do know how you feel. I had so very many times I was taken advantage of. I'll never have good credit all because of stupid decisions and putting trust where I should never have. It really was so obvious to others that I was just getting ripped off.  I naturally want to believe people are genuine but I know I'm blind to it. Sometimes people say how they want to get to know you and be friends, but they are just being nice. It is so hard to understand why people choose to be so superficial. Why not just say hi, or nothing at all? Why do they have to pretend they are interested?
