Just like the Beatles, most of us “get by with a little help from our friends”. It’s important to have a solid network of people you can trust and lean on, and friends to go to when you’re having a hard time. But unfortunately, no matter how great of a friend you are, there’s always a chance that someone else in your life will try to take advantage of your kindness and generosity…
Down below, we’ve gathered some of the most infuriating posts from the Choosing Beggars subreddit featuring entitled “friends” who showed their true colors and clearly forgot that “beggars can’t be choosers”. So we hope these pics don’t remind you of anyone you consider a friend, but if they do, perhaps this will be a wake-up call that you deserve better!
Be sure to upvote the conversations you can’t believe actually happened, and let us know in the comments if you’ve ever had to cut off an entitled friend who could have landed a spot on this list. Then if you’re interested in checking out one of Bored Panda’s previous articles featuring the Choosing Beggars subreddit, you can find another right here!
