These people realized that their friends actually weren't their friends at all. Sometimes it takes a pattern of behavior to realize a person doesn't have your best interests at heart. Other times, a single incident can send the friendship spiraling. 

Twitter users shared the incidents that made them finally realize their friends were actually bad friends (and sometimes even their enemy). Reading these tweets is like a cautionary tale of spotting and then avoiding red flags. That can be difficult when you spot red flags in someone you love. It's easy to ignore them during the fun times in life. 

But as some people shared, they had fairweather friends who wouldn't show up for them during the hard times in life. A surprising amount of people had friends who were bold enough to sabotage them on their birthday. Who does that? It's the one day of the year that is just supposed to be about the birthday person! It seems like some friends harbor jealousy and resentment towards each other, especially when it comes to dating. Crushing on the same person can ruin a friendship if you aren't careful. 

Check out all of these wild answers below. Then, this sale almost made one video game store employee quit their job.
