you never know who is your real friend, but soon as they got some interest or benefits from you at the first moment and opportunity they will use this against you.

people tend to switch their masks easily, it's just the nature of a human being

the best advice you can ask it your self instead of others, people tend to give super good advice to other people but when it comes to their self they hopeless, and just continue doing the same mistakes.

what you can do is to look at your self with 3d person view, like it's not you but some one else
and ask yourself like a person who watches this from the side:

what will you suggest to this person todo?
and you will find your self answering with really good advice and really diffrent than if you just asked your self as normal.
