Here are a few tips to consider before confronting a fake friend:

1. Make a logical decision rather than a purely emotional one. Don’t react out of anger, but consider what supports your well-being and aligns with your values.
2. Reflect on how the fake friendship happened in the first place. Common reasons include:
   • Overestimating your level of closeness and investing too much in a one-sided friendship
   • The person had an ulterior motive from the beginning and was never a true friend
   • A slow decline of a long-term friendship as you grew apart
3. Be mindful of “love bombing” in friendships, where someone showers you with gifts and attention early on, but with strings attached. Learn to say no to gifts that come with obligations.
4. Consider the “three C’s” for dealing with fake friends:
   • Confront them calmly and directly about their behavior
   • Cool things down and establish clear boundaries and expectations
   • Cut ties completely if needed
5. Avoid making decisions purely based on emotions like anger, even though it’s understandable to feel that way when someone is being fake.

The key is to step back, reflect on the situation and your values, and respond in a way that prioritizes your well-being, rather than reacting impulsively out of hurt or anger.
