That one person everyone loves that you just CANT STAND!!

Rant / Vent

Theres a guy at my work who just put in his 2 weeks after 10+ years working here. Ive only known him a year since I started, and at first we were friendly and technically friends at one point. But im gonna give bullet points as to what I learned about him over time and why i dont like him.

  1. He is HORRIBLE to plan anything with even with ample time. Reminders. Etc. He will cancel plans last minute, pre game a little hard and get high af to the point of not being able to drive. For context; my coworkers like to plan group things. But he only ever attended if specific peoppe were there. But he always said he was down, was good to go etc (even when he KNEW who the group was) and will cancel last minute.

​​2. He has fucked around with girls in the shop for several years. This isnt jealousy, I understand it happens and didnt judge him. UNTIL one of my best friends told me they were hooking up. HOWEVER, she could tell absolutely nobody bc it would start shit and he would "blacklist" her. Hes done it before to girls, even when other people just naturally found out bc he ain't slick. Hed go on dates in public ffs. Like bro if your gonna sleep around you cant act all surprised when it bites you in the ass. Not to mention hes just using my best friend behind my back and im not allowed to know about it.

  1. Hes just so fucking arrogant. Thinks hes better than everyone when in reality, hed be a total loser. The only reason hes so well liked is because hes helpful at work, has good charisma, and is attractive for a man. 6'5 muscular and very masculine. ​​Thats it. Thats all it takes. And everyone FAWNS over him. The guys think hes cool asf bc guy culture, which i believed he was too ngl. And all the girls have a huge crush on him.

But as a person? He ain't that slick. Hes not evil by any means, but ive always been the type to kinda notice things about people far earlier than anyone else does. Bad vibes, how they act, what their actions say. Sure, I may be judgemental. But my instinct has never been wrong. Every single person I felt a weird vibe about, whether in HS and as an adult, ended up being a very bad person. It took years for everyone else to realize that i was right. But in the meantime? I was "crazy judgemental" and "well thats just how they are." Ok? Maybe i dont like "how they are." If I cant plan anything with you, if you constantly cancel, fuck over people who shed light on your bad qualities, than your not a friend of mine.

Ive only told a couple people my thoughts on this IRL. Tbh, im not looking to start drama. But seeing everyone freak out about this guy leaving as if he hasn't been calling in every week for multiple days if not entire weeks is baffling. Like yall he hasnt even been here and we managed without him. Then theres the girls freaking out and being sad their eye candy is gone. But honestly, im not surpirsed nor sad aboht it. I thougbt I would be, we *were* friends after all. But after getting to know him, I realized it was all an act. Hes just an asshole in disguise, and its easier when your meat suit is the ideal type and people decide to look the other way. ​​​

Anyways, is there anyone in yalls lives who everyone seems to love and your just sussing them out hard core? like "why does everyone like this person, theyre insane/an asshole/etc" ? Sorry for the rant thanks for reading if you made it this far lol
