Psychology's 9 signs of someone who is malicious
Being around a phony may be tiring. Fortunately, psychology can help us identify these people.
1) Empathy deficit We all have selfish moments, but there's a difference between these and a lack of empathy.
Psychology says good people have empathy, the ability to understand and share another' feelings.
2) Constant negativity Life has ups and downs. Everyone has bad days.
Having a terrible day is different from being negative.
3) Lies Trust is the core of any relationship—friendship, romantic, or professional.
Repeated lying undermines confidence and casts doubt on character.
