How to Recognize a Person You Can Never Trust

Psychologists advise paying attention to recurring patterns of behavior rather than isolated actions. The article lists six signs of an unreliable person: hiding hurtful words behind humor, inability to admit mistakes, contradiction between claimed support and devaluation, failure to keep promises, causing self-doubt under the guise of care, and creating obstacles followed by justification. The main guideline is a person's daily behavior.

The article, published on the Cursorinfo portal, offers readers six behavioral signs that may indicate an unreliable person. The author, Tali Malkina, references a Your Tango publication and emphasizes that a single action is not indicative, but rather a recurring pattern of behavior matters. Among the signs are: hiding hurtful words behind humor, inability to admit mistakes, contradiction between claimed support and actual devaluation, failure to keep promises, causing self-doubt under the guise of care, and creating obstacles followed by justification. The article advises evaluating a person based on their daily behavior, not on isolated words or actions, and paying attention to feelings of guilt or doubt that arise after communication.
