Frenemy:Friends or Enemies ? By @Smurfett_Li



Being a 90's kid, growing up there were two types of people in the world (the "world" at that stage was pretty much just school) - friends and enemies. But it seems that I've been wrong all those years because nowadays there's a combination of the two(which by now most of us know because of personal experience) known as FrenEmies.  I recently read an article that spotlighted this kind of relationship (don't suppose the word friendship could be used here?). It showed how people have just become so accustom to, well, fakeness!

So what exactly IS a frenemy? Well, simply put, a frenemy is someone who pretends to be your friend but is actually an enemy. (Hmm talk about keeping your friends close and your enemies closer.)


Almost everyone either is, was, or has a frenemy, including famous celebs!

Whether your feud was over a guy, (like Paris Hilton & Lindsay Lohan) or a fashion show (like Victoria Beckham & Katie Holmes) or even over stealing the spotlight from each other (like Lauren Conrad & Heidi Montag) one thing is for sure, when you have a frenemy,its for life!

So what exactly causes frienemies? Well it could a host of things, from a simple misunderstanding to maybe jealousy that's been building up for a long time and turned to resentment but either way it doesn't make it hurt any less.

I guess that part that hurts the most is knowing that once there was actually a friendship, and now all that's left is memories between strangers.


And what makes it gut wrenching and worth head banging? Knowing that you confided in them and opened up to a person who entertained you but never really cared about you.As with all things in life, never regret. Because while it may have hurt for a moment, these things shape you into who you are. As for the frenemy, kill that cow with kindness (shoot did I just say cow, oops I meant uhm uhm...oh forget it!). After all, life is one big ocean with plenty more friends to choose from.

Love and peace, ladies! No seriously this time...

Ciao!
