Welcome to Day Five, the final day, of the 101 Spring Break Series! Today I thought it’ll be fun to share the types of friends that Luvvie Ajayi judged in the I'm Judging You: The Do-Better Manual.
- The Competitor
This is the friend who constantly tries to one up. They can never just congratulate but have to compare your latest achievement to something they’ve already accomplished or in the process of achieving. This is not someone you should be friends with because it’s quite narcissistic and can affect how you view your self-worth. You should confront them about their behavior as they might not be aware of their actions. If they fail to make an effort to change, it’s time to snip snip and cut them off.

- The SOS Pal
This is the person who only hits you up when THEY are in need. They’ll ghost you and be unresponsive for weeks at a time, but you’ll be the first to be called when they are in need of monetary or emotional support. This friendship is definitely one-sided and can have you leaving drained. This is the person that needs a taste of their own medicine to understand how hurtful their actions truly are.

- Dinner Scrooge #1
The first dinner scrooge is the person who votes to split the bill equally when they eat 75% of the food. This is just plain disrespectful, but we don’t know everyone’s situation. SO deal with this on a case-by-case basis.

- Dinner Scrooge #2
The second type of dinner scrooge is the person who calculates their portion of the bill to the penny. They can’t even round to the nearest nickel. Personally, I think this is the fairest way to split up the bill, but rounding to the nearest dollar should be fine. However, it might be that they’re low on cash, so again deal with this on a case-by-case basis.

- Dinner Scrooge #3
The last type of dinner scrooge is the person who leaves early and forgets to pay. They claim to have an emergency right around the time the bill comes around and everyone else is stuck footing the bill. A simple solution is to ask them to Venmo, PayPal, or apple pay you. It’s that simple and if they choose not and it becomes a recurring pattern then don’t go out and eat with them.

- The Adventurer
This is the friend who always doing the wildest things and have you tag along. You know hanging out with them will either get you roughed up or in trouble with the law. They know how to party a little too hard. Two solutions are to either keep your distance or learn how to stand your ground and say no when things start to get out of hand.

- The Lannister
This is the type of friend you don’t trust because you can’t trust them. These are the type of people that are straight-up shady!! They have been at the root of a lot of the drama in your friend group and you simply can’t trust them with your soul. These people you should keep at arm’s-length and definitely not trust them with any of your deepest secrets, thoughts, or fears.

- The Surface:
This is the friend who you don’t really know. You probably meet through mutual friends and just have been in the same friend group do to other friends and never got the chance to make a connection of your own. You should get to know this person because it seems you guys will be hanging around with each other for some time. It won’t hurt to get to know someone new! This is also could be the friend who rarely talks about themselves and keeps it brief. They might have their guards and walls up, so try to bring them down, gently.

- The Frenemy
This is the friend who is just straight-up mean. She is the real-life Regina from Mean Girls. They have a fresh mouth and witty remarks that can be detrimental to your self-esteem. They say really rude things and claim it’s a joke. They act despicable and say it’s a prank. I advise you to run, periodt.

- The Enabler
This is the type of friend who always says yes. There’s nothing wrong with having friends who see eye to eye on everything, but this person will say you look amazing when you clearly look like you got run over by a truck. They find it hard to form their own opinions when they’re with you and it’s mostly because of fear of how you’ll react. Have a conversation if your friend is like that and explain that it’s okay not to agree on everything. Being honest despite differences is the foundation of a great relationship.

- The Flake
The friend who is always late, missing, and just unreliable. You can’t depend on them because they won’t show up or do it and they’ll come up with an excuse of why they didn’t pull through. It’s simple, don’t rely on them.

- The Holy Roller
This is the ‘holier than thou’ friend. They look down on everything you do and make you seem like a hardened criminal just because you decided to eat during class. However, they are good friends to have and can second as your moral compass. They’ll keep you out of trouble but never bring you to a party.

Hope this helps you deal with certain friends and doesn't scare you from making friends!
