Frenemy

The “Demon”

The demon supports and encourages all our bad habits. Whether it’s spending a lot of money, eating too much junk food, or skipping school, this friend has the ability to get you to do things that you shouldn’t. You might have a lot of fun, bat watch out – this friend can be bad for your health, your grades and your reputation. 

The “Gossip”

Gossips discover your secrets and share them with the world. They are good listeners and seem to be caring and sensitive, so you might find yourself opening up and telling them things that you’ll wish you had kept to yourself. Be careful – they’ll only keep your secret until they find their way to the nearest phone or computer.

The “Competitor”

There are times when a little bit of competition between friends is healthy. However, too much competition can change a friend into a frenemy. No matter what you do, competitors have to do it better and let you know it. When you get 98 on a quiz, they get 100. When you finally get the new bike that you wanted, they get a better model. These frenemies can make you feel depressed.

The “Critic”

According to the critic, you never do anything right. This frenemy will criticize anything he or she will say your new haircut is too short or that your new jeans make you look fat. When you hang out together with other friends, the critic always corrects you. After you spend time with this frenemy, you feel as confident as an ice cube in the desert. 

“The problem is that sometimes we are surrounded by people who doesn’t deserve us.

But the real problem is that we choose them.”

Just remember…

You can always choose the people around you, so wisely!
