All in all, manipulation, jealousy, and inconsistency are the problems that friends suffer from the most.
However, they can be eliminated with a simple touch: express how you feel to your friend if you think you
are being used by him or her, make your friend feel special by doing the things he or she likes if he or she is
jealous of your friends at work, at school etc.; and finally, find a way to get in contact with your friend even

if he or she can’t call or meet you.

* manipulation: If your friend uses or controls you for his or her own benefit and forces you to act in the way he or she wants,

disregarding your opinions or needs, it is called manipulation.
* jealousy: If your friend feels angry or bitter as he or she thinks another person tries to take you away from him or her, it is called
jealousy.
* inconsistency: If your friend calls or meets you regularly for some period and then disappears for a long time without any

explanations and does so from time to time in your friendship, it's called inconsistency.
