In life, there are some people who will just use you to get the things that they want. When you are going through a difficult time and are feeling insecure, it can be easy to get taken advantage of like this. However, life is way too short to spend time around people who are selfish, narcissistic, and simply not willing to have a two-way relationship.

Whether you are trying to form a romantic relationship or maintain a friendship, it is important to spend time with people who are willing, to be honest about their true intentions.

In romantic relationships, it can be easy for your partner to lie and tell you what you want to hear in order to get what they want. If you catch your partner in a lie here or there, it can be forgiven. However, if your partner continues to lie to you over and over again, it is time to get out of this toxic relationship. You need to have the courage to start a new life that will be much healthier for you in the long run.
