8 Signs Your Friend Is Jealous
5. Spreading negativity
There is an aura of negativity surrounding some people. Just like the indifferent ones who just seem to be immune to your achievements, the jealous friends counter them with negative arguments. They are the friends who will hold your luck or some other contingencies responsible for your success instead of you.
6. Being there only in good times
This is the friend that even children are acquainted with thanks to the lessons in the moral science class. Unlike a true friend who stands by you even in the face of grave danger, such friends just flock around you during your happy times. When some misfortune befalls upon you, they just migrate to some other friend of theirs.
7. Blaming constantly
A jealous friend is the one who holds you responsible for every failure under the sun. They are so oblivious to their own faults, that it takes them a minute to point a finger towards you if anything goes wrong. Instead of being a support for you in times of misfortune, these friends act worse than your foes and make your life even more miserable.
8. Being manipulative
Jealous friends are often manipulative. In front of you, they act as if they have not known any better friend than you, but just as you turn your back, they are the first to criticize you and backbite in your name. They also trick you into unwanted situations pretending to be your buddy. In reality, they are the ones most jealous of you and are with you because they find you an easy target for their not-so-noble schemes.
