One thing you can do, is give your enemies credit for honesty. They make it quite clear that they don't like you, and they are consistent with their feelings. You know where you stand with them and easily keep your distance in order to avoid unnecessary drama. The lines have been clearly drawn.
However, the same can't always be said about your "friends." Not your friends, but your "friends" (note use of quotation marks). The ones who you think are on your side. The ones who are around during the good times, but disappear when times are rough. The ones who share your life story, but you know nothing about them. The ones who allow the truth to come out when it's late at night and they think no one is listening. The ones who tend to cause the most damage because they smile in your face and make you feel comfortable, but behind your back they are plotting your next struggle.
The only thing worse than having a frenemy, is being one.
