Sorry For The Bad News, But Here Are 10 Ways You Can Tell If You’re Just Being Used In Any Relationship

#2: They ask for favors even when it is inconvenient for you.

If you have a friend who wants to borrow your car when they know you have somewhere to be – they aren’t a perfect friend. Tell them to get an Uber. Be extra cautious if they ask for money for that Uber.

#3: They never want to hold up their end of the tab.

Sometimes when you go out in a group, it’s normal for a buddy to occasionally cover your tab or pay for your meal – especially if it was their idea in the first place.

However, if you have a buddy who always wants to go out and expects you to cover their tab or pay for their meal – you have a user on your hands.

#4: They are nice when they want something from you.

These users are the worst – they suck up and put you on a pedestal when they need something from you. This “friend” is buttering you up, so they are more likely to get what they want when they ask for it.

However, the minute they don’t need something from you, they are aloof or don’t want to hang out.

#5: They are nowhere to be seen when you need them.

You are always there to spot them $20 for gas, pay for their mani-pedi, or cover their tab at mimosa Sundays, but when you need to lean on them for a change, they won’t answer the phone.

Any friend who comes to you when they need help but won’t return the favor when you need help is not a good friend.
