Is there a person in your life who you only pretend to like?

Hi there sniffadog, My next door neighbour can be a pain in the as*. He is a chatterbox who is incredibly boring, and sometimes he drinks too much alcohol. I will avoid him if I can. But he is not noisy, and keeps himself to himself most of the time. I tolerate him so that there is no bad feeling; plus I feel sympathetic towards the fact that he is on his own, and has no real friends.

No, not really.

If I don't like someone, they'll usually know it. I don't play pretenses.

Mom- she is a diagnosed sociopath and is hard to deal with most of the time

My ex

I am at uni and I have accepted that I'm going to carry on seeing her around all the time, and my friends still talk to her. So it means I can't embrace my hatred toward her (what she did to me was horrific!) and have to pretend to like her just so things aren't incredibly awkward all year!

Yes, there is this "victim" (She always thinks she's the victim of everything) at work who brings all her drama to work with her. She faked an injury just to get attention and wastes people's time, stopping them to talk about her personal problems. I'm friendly to her because she's a loser and I feel sorry for her.

I have to get along with her at work. She's a hateful person who thinks she's very superior to everyone else. She's not.

We all do and often we discover that in reality we do like them in spite of them giving us a pain in the upper reaches of the left hand side of the backs---

Nymph

Yeah. My boss.

Duh! Paycheck!

yes, a female co-worker...we had it all but now we have to be polite and professional (we're pros but like to let it all hang out and not censor ourselves) because she works with us and she's a pill...we're all looking to work elsewhere

looks like i'm not alone

Hi Sniffadog,how's life treating you?
There's a friend of my sister's who gets me on the phone and won't stop "rabbiting".
So I have a little device that makes a sound like our front-door bell!
I press the button.Say "Must go now!" and hang up.

Googlypants

Nope. If i don't like someone I cut them out.

My sister's fiance...I pretend to like him because I love my sister and my nephews and it would break her heart if she knew I despised him. Personlly, I think he is a lazy, self-centered jacka$$, but I'm not the one who has to live with him and he apparently makes her happy, so who am I to judge?

since this question is in 'Embassies & Consulates' perhaps it should be the directed at the Swiss - such the burden of neutality .but there must some country....

my neighbour. he is a lunatic so might end up dead if I told him what I really think.

The people I don't like know that I don't like them. However, I will always be civil for the sake of the mutual friend. I try not to let other people take away my class. However, I will put someone in the pavement if they come at me.
