Let’s play “let’s spot the fakes"

READ WITH HUMOR AND SERIOUSNESS...

    It’s kind of like “where is Waldo”

All of our stories should be started with “Once Upon a Time”. And most of us want it to end with “Happily Ever After”. Let’s face it, we all dream about when Prince Henry rides into the castle to save Danielle from that gross old man that “bought” her because he pulled his head out of his behind. You know what I’m talking about, that part where Prince Henry was an asshole after Danielle tried to let her guard down in Ever After. Reality is the chances of you getting struck by lighting is better than this situation happening. We are in a world where we need to fine tune our “fakedar”. Yep, I just coined that term. It’s like playing a game of where is Waldo.

    Let’s face it, there isn’t a how to book how spot someone who is fake. Your “fakedar” develops as you experience life and people. It develops just like your eyes do when you are trying to find Waldo on the crazy pages of crap. We all have our tricks to find him; we turn the book upside down, look through one eye, you do what you have to do to find him. But your “fakedar” is you listening to your gut. It’s like the age old saying your grandma says.... if it looks like a duck, acts like a duck, it probably is a duck. 

    Look up trust— trust is the firm belief in the reliability, truth, ability, or strength in someone or something. People develop trust in different ways, normally trust is the product of curiosity about someone. In any relationship, friendship or romantic, ask LOTS of questions about 

EVERYTHING. See if you get an answer. Most likely if you get a vague bullshit answers it should be the first alarm going off. That you are dealing with a fake. If you have someone who talks about trust and communication A LOT— their biggest weakness is just that, they don’t trust anyone and their communications skills need refining. 

    Believe me sisters if your romantic interest disappears for week...and refuses to tell you anything, secret is you are dealing with a fake.

    The only way to protect yourself, is to be you. Be consistent in being you, so if you are being doubted about being authentic there is no question.
