“From fibroids to fake friends…” The ladies have discussed fibroids so listen in today as they address fake friends. Lady, how many people in your life can you truly call friends? How long have you known them? Are they acquaintances or “ride or dies”?

Many of us call the majority of the people in our life friends but all friendships are not equal. In this episode, Terri and Dom help us understand the different types of friendships and give us real-life examples of their highest level of friends and how to let go of the people whose friendship is no longer healthy. 

Quote of the Day:

"An insincere and evil friend is more to be feared than a wild beast; a wild beast may wound your body, but an evil friend will wound your mind.” – Buddha

 

Takeaways:

4 levels of friendship:

Level 1. Acquaintanceship

Level 3. Close friendship

Level 4. Intimate friendship

 

How to spot a fake friend in your life:

  • Fake Friends Are Selfish
  • Fake Friends Thrive on Gossip and Drama
  • They mock you and compliment you at the same time because…passive-aggressive.
  • They gossip endlessly about others.
  • They only see you as a means to an end.
