The Risk-taker
Being a risk-taker requires courage to face the fear of uncertainty and failure. Risk-takers seem to be willing to do whatever it takes to achieve their goals, no matter the stakes, no matter the outcome. Their confidence, courage and tendency to dream big might serve as an inspiration for you. Whether or not you become fearless, hanging around a risk-taker will still motivate you to take more chances than you typically would.
How to deal with risk-takers: Tread with caution around risk-takers. They usually decide things without considering all the possible results. It’s generally alright to take risks every once in a while, as long as you don’t risk your life in the process.
The Manipulator
Some would say everyone needs to meet a manipulator at least once in their life so that you can learn to appreciate other people more. Manipulative people are not really interested in you as a person, they just see you as a means to an end. They are cunning, sly and able to work any situation in their favor, transforming others into unwilling participants to their schemes. Realizing how you’ve been manipulated will serve as a lesson in the future, help you become more aware and able to identify other manipulators so that you can stay away from them.
How to deal with manipulators: Dealing with manipulative people is anything but easy. They know how to push people’s buttons and use them to gain control. The only good thing resulting from the interaction with a manipulator is that you become wiser, more grounded, and more mindful of other people.

Many of the above situations are often of the unmarried, young and do not have many friends. They rely on the few. They are often the ones who need to call you and not you them!!! Or there are those who call incessantly describing all the great things occurring in they lives but then put last as How Are You?? These are self centered immature and often the ones who brag how many friends they have and play one against the other!! They often drop one friend for a new friend and you can’t figure what’s with them? They stop calling because they have so many friends and you are no longer included when you make it your business to include them in your plans if they are alone!! Women are more fickle than men I think but then you never know! Men should open up about their problems to get a feeling of what hurts them…not like women vs. dates etc! I am a grown woman who has been ripped apart by other woman friends over the extent of their lives! Rule of Thumb for me, I’d rather have a few wonderful caring friends than many who use you!!!!
