2. They have no interest in your thoughts or feelings.
3. They gossip about you.
4. They use harsh words and are unkind.
5. They have an “I know better” attitude.
6. They lash out in answer.
Once you see these people for who they really are, people who feel bad about themselves and don’t want you to succeed, you’ll realize you have choices:
