I show no mercy to people who are hypocrites or in layman’s term, “plastic!” I wonder why there is such a characteristic as vile as being pretentious and all. Is it too hard to be honest and real?
I am not surprised why a lot (and I mean, A LOT!) of people do not like me. I don’t like putting up a front and treating someone so nicely. I do not pretend I like someone like what these plastic people are doing that the moment that person turns his or her back, he/she has been stabbed a million times only to resurrect him/her and do the vicious cycle all over again. I am not like that. I don’t know how to play that game even if it will benefit me in such a horrible way. I don’t like it and I don’t have the knack to even entertain such behavior or see people sway with sweet-nothings.

I have met many people in my life and so far, this is the only time I have met some who are outright “plastic.” They shower you with all the “pambobola” (sweet talks) in the world, even calls you “Ate or Manang or Tita” (elder sister/relative) and yet, their true colours come out when you try to bring up something that is very real about character formation. What is that? They cannot stand constructive criticisms when they are the subject and yet they hand out those like flyers in a market. I’d rather you don’t call me with those respectful terms when they do not mean anything to you. Stop the BS!
It is also very disrespectful to me who is being real so you, plastic people, know where to stand. But to treat me and the ones I love like dirt bags in my own territory is crossing the line.
I wonder how people stand other people who are like that? I cannot fathom the wiliness of such attitude. Is it genetics? Is it environmental influence? Is it the lack of education to behave properly and accept the truth? What ever it is, it is so deceiving and outright bad. If you cannot be real, then get out of my way!

Kalma lang, Sis! Ang puso! I agree though that it’s really hard to deal with people who are insincere, “plastic”. My work though involves meeting and dealing with many people so I have learned to discern and keep my heart when I deal with these kind of people. I still try to be civil but I keep my boundaries and I am careful in not telling them anything that they might use against me.
Agree sis but sometimes, when they are within your personal space, ang hirap maging calm when you know exactly they are just BSing you 🙂
Hay naku sis, I am the same way, di ko kayang maging kunwari ng nararamdaman ko hahaha. I guess parehas tayo in a sense, I have few real friends, they are just the ones who really know me. Keep being real sis.
Ditto sis! That is my goal in life. Now, I’m learning the art of “deadma.” I just can’t be bothered now. 😉
Master the art of “deadma” and just focus on yourself and what you think is right to do.
I wish they make “deadma” pills so I can drink plenty. 🙂
It’s true Sis Ria, they are just envy of what you have that they do not have. I always stay out from people like that. Life is so better without paying attention to those kind of people. Do not focus on them but focus of what makes you smile and happy.
Agree sis 🙂
It’s hard to deal with people who are plastic. I try to stay away from them because like you I really can’t stand dealing with them.
They are like plague sis.
If only everyone we meet can be real and sincere, but that’s an impossibility. I try my best to be nice to everyone because I want a peaceful life, but still I still come across people who are outright rude and disrespectful. Sigh!
Yes sis. That is very unfortunate. I just don’t get the hypocrisy game.
