Why do some people act so friendly and then stab you in the back, saying nasty things to you when you haven't done anything wrong, but they perceive it that you have? I think because you don't fall for the fakeness and that feels threatening to them because you see them for who they really are. or maybe it is jealosy, I really don't know.
My mom was fake and I learned to see through people's fakeness very well because of her. I know when someone is fake especially when they act so nice and all, but I see the claws that most don't.
One thing I have learned is my instincts are usually right. Most people are actually okay, which I am relieved. But once in a while I meet someone who remind me of my mother and her friendly mask she wears. What is so scarcy is that these people are such good manipulators and a lot of people don't see them for who they really are.It made me sick as a child to hear how great my mom was, she worked with the learning disabled, was a EMT, saved people's lives. But most don't know her dark side. My T say is is part of the "con" they do. It is how they get their way with charm, but at the same time they are using people.
Thankfully this is a rare event, although recent, it just boggles my mind how they can con people and people think they are so wonderful.I think we need to listen to our instincts more, for someone who has a past like mine, we need to do it for own protection. I am taking more time now with people before I get too envolved with them personally. I had to learn this the hard way. What really scares me is when I find out they are a parent. The poor kid.
