The cloaked and disguised

Like all human beings, they pick up different names and identities, possess different attitude, embrace different events. Pick 10 randomly, a guy may look cool with his icy stare, another may look sissy because of his curls and feminine appearance. Turn around and look at the others, the girl looks so youthful wearing jersey, next to her the young man looks like a person with great intellect adjusting his black framed spectacles. Now behind the life's stage, who knows the doe-eyed pretty girl might be the next hypocrite whereas the good-looking man is actually a wolf in sheep's clothing?

People spot the wolf now!

3! 2!1! ok time's up!

People walk in and out of your life, some as friend, some as passerby in nature. But among the so-called Friends, how many of them have merely approached with attempt to take advantage then left without saying a word, and by now they treat you more like a stranger than a Friend. You don't have a clue what i'm talking about, do you? an instance:

X and Y are neighbors. X is good at baking cake; Y is inexperienced on the other hand. X is the type of person who gives generously whenever he can. One day Y is facing a shortage in flour, X picks up some and gives without expecting anything in return. Y thinks that the texture of his cake isn't nice enough, X gives help and advices. Y's oven is broken, X lends him one. As the good days go by, Y has sharpen his baking skills and owned a bakery house but seems like he's trying to be a little distant- zero conversation, turn away, avert his eyes as they passed each other, no more greetings. X gets disappointed by Y's behavior.

Still don't understand? all right forget it

Anyway the question goes, how can you tell if a person is sincere? Some answer, we can spot the fake smile *wink* True (but not all the time) The fake one might look real at times. Yup facial expression are not billboards, people might look bounteous and friendly at first, but you never realize that they keep their ulterior motive so well until all of a sudden they become so harmless. They gradually extend themselves in friendship and get what they want then finally 'leave', but in fact they will be still in your surroundings most of the time. The better quartile remain 'friendly' but of course not 'so friendly' like the past and as for the worse quartile, they treat you like stranger.

Sometimes just when you really want to lend a helping hand and do good things for people, they seem to want more and more. And i don't get it why people get so so muka tembok nowadays

people tends to 'ask for more'

Probably you won't see me going around taunting people b'coz i personally think that ridiculing by means of laughter is hurtful. But since having conversation with these kind of people is sometimes inevitable, i play along, by holding on the principle You stab me in my forehead, i stab you back in your forehead- Tie :P Also at the same time, i keep my distance from them la --- save time save energy!

In a nutshell, i'm absolutely fine if people want to take advantage of any others or Me(if you think you can). But for those who wear mask tebal tebal, fake their emotion, my tolerance wears thin for them.
