How to recognize a bad person? No, not a caricatured villain from comics, but simply a person who at first glance looks completely harmless, but if you look closely, various aspects begin to appear, thickening the shadows on a previously light and, perhaps, shining image.
In fact, the ability to recognize not-that-nice people is very useful in life for almost any of us, so this selection of ‘red flags’, carefully compiled and based on a recent poll in the AskReddit community, might be really wholesome. At least, if you don’t see yourself in all these various clues…

#29
Taking advantage of others or mistreating others when they can get away with it.
Things like letting their roommates do all their dishes and pay all the bills. Getting their partner to do the majority of housework and slinking out of helping. Acting like they care about something only when someone is witnessing them. Being kind only when others are watching. Being cruel when others are not watching. “Forgetting” things that don’t fit their narrative about who they are.
It is so manipulative to cultivate a persona that is totally false and to act the opposite when it is advantageous. So many people use this strategy to get away with terrible behaviour and once you see their true colours it immediately screams they are terrible at their core.
